Talk:The Club Dumas

What category of novel?
If you had to categorize this novel, where would you put it? I think I might go with satire, farce, mystery or a mixture thereof. I'm eager to hear other wikipedian's opinions. --Netizen 02:18, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Tough one! I'm leaning towards suspense/thriller if I had to define it under one genre, but there are definitely elements of several others. PoptartKing 06:21, 10 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your reply. I now realize that didn't even mention why I asked this question in the first place. The reason is that the movie The Ninth Gate is part of a category of the pattern "Films based on (type of category here) books". Now it has been sorted into "Films based on horror books" - which I reverted - and then sorted into "Films based on fantasy books", where I feel it doesn't really belong either. But then again, what would be an alternative? That is if you insist on sticking to the "Films based on (type of category here) books" pattern at all. I'd appreciate your input.

Plot section
- is iffy. Could do with less OR, especially near the end. ArdClose (talk) 20:37, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

Too long plot summary ?
Some people seems to forget that Jimmy Wales clearly has stated that "Wikipedia has no limitations". If the text contents errors, bad english or unrelevant information it would be different. But simply state "this is too long" is not "Wikipedia manors". Boeing720 (talk) 01:14, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

2 Books?

 * Yes, but he already has one copy, so he is indeed only seeking two. Gaijin42 (talk) 18:47, 8 October 2014 (UTC)
