Talk:Sam Campbell (writer)

Spouse?
Does anyone have a reference for the birth year of his spouse? At this time, the main page shows her to be 46 years younger than him, only 20 when he died at 66. And I seem to recall in the books he called his wife "Giny" which could be a nickname for "Virginia". But I don't think he wrote all those books in his last year or two. 72.208.56.42 (talk) 13:20, 29 November 2008 (UTC)

Sam and Giny married in 1941, she wasn't born in 1941. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.74.20.14 (talk) 19:07, 24 July 2009 (UTC)

Why are there references in the 'works' section?
It doesn't make sense to add a link to a review unless you're discussing the review. I'm inclined to delete. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 14:24, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * How doesn't it make sense? The references are there to verify the article content, as always. Phil Bridger (talk) 14:31, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * I understand that for the works without a listed ISBN, since it's plausibly not super easy to identify a book published 50+ years ago without a unique identifier, but IMO there's no need to verify the mere existence of a book—especially when an ISBN is already available. If we were describing, commenting on, or summarizing the books, then a review or other reference would be useful. No big deal either way, it just struck me as odd.

 * I sympathise with what you say, but there are many editors who refuse to believe that independent reviews exist if they are not cited in the article. See the deletion nomination. Phil Bridger (talk) 14:45, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Fair enough! AleatoryPonderings (talk) 14:46, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
