Talk:Natural Beauty (novel)

This is the first article I've created, and I welcome any feedback!
I'd love to know broadly how I could do a better job, but I also have the following specific questions so far:

(relatively) broad

 * How do I assess the landscape, I guess you'd call it, of reviews? Part of the value of the article is to attempt to summarize this in the Reception section, but I don't yet have any intuition regarding what is representative.
 * How detailed should the plot be? This varies so greatly among the other novel articles I've read that I don't know how to assess it!

 * Should I wikilink to the publications named in the article? I'm unsure both because they're linked in the references, and because I'm not sure they qualify under what generally should be linked.
 * The most recent concrete reporting I could find on the television adaptation stated that the anticipated air date was April 2023; do I include that information, on account of its concreteness, or do I leave it out?


 * The article looks good to me!
 * The reviews themself should tell you, unless they are wildly mixed. Book Marks creates aggregate ratings for books and they say the novel has received "Positive" reviews (albeit based only 4 reviews).. You could just cite that and give a brief impression of what was singled out in positivity. Film and album articles are typically more detailed and their lead sections usually include a brief summary of the critical assessment. Book articles are no different. And you do not need to provide a source because it is merely a summary of reviews already mentioned (and typically quoted) in the Reception sections.
 * Per WP:NOVELPLOT:


 * Yes, source titles should be linked, but should follow the general rule of linking only once. But citations stand alone in that regard (MOS:DL), with source names linked in each citation.
 * Of course you can mention the projected air date. Although this information will likely be moved into a separate article later in the future as it would be more apt there. But there is no separate article for that series yet so it fits here imo.
