You will be compiling your bibliography and creating an outline of the changes you will make in this sandbox.

Outline of proposed changes
First: get the actual sources from the references above to correct the citations


 * I am endeavoring to understand the genre and better define the definition as stated in the Mystery Fiction article.
 * I am also seeking to limit or remove subjective phrases and replace them with object, peer reviewed information


 * Define mystery with better citation than dictionary.com
 * whose titles such as Dime Mystery, Thrilling Mystery and Spicy Mystery offered what were then described as complicated to solve and weird stories: supernatural horror in the vein of Grand Guignol.
 * Citation needed
 * The opening paragraph seems to be lacking a true and complete definition for the word Mystery.
 * Crime and supernatural are the only 2 elements of mystery mentioned
 * Do the pyramids, sasquatch, science- fiction,
 * Even the reference from the Talk page about the book EMMA where she receives a piano from an unknown benefactor creates a mystery.
 * My initial feelings is that “Mystery” needs a better definition

Beginnings
 * The second sentence has references but is a subjective statement.
 * It does not line up with anthropological data and shows a very westernized point of view.
 * The theory in the second paragraph is that mystery is centered around detective work and that automatically negates the thought of the supernatural brought up n the introduction.
 * The 4th paragraph says, “Books were especially helpful to the genre…”
 * Isn’t that redundant? This is about books, about written literature in general
