Electronic
HI, We are working on electronic literature. This is listed as low importance for literature, and I wondered why?

Electronic literature uses games, images, sound, etc. as an integral part of the literary experience. With the advent of new technology, AI, VR, etc., electronic literature is an essential part of literature creation... I am a newbie editor, so I greatly appreciate your help! Thanks!LoveElectronicLiterature (talk) 16:58, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

WIP's listed on writer page?
Wondering if there is a standard for including works in progress, particularly under a Selected Works heading? Would the standard be to only include published works with ISBN numbers, or would a wiki editor include works in progress that may have been announced already in reliable press?

This is in regards to a writer / translator page I created here - Max Lawton. Thank you in advance!

 * If you have a source to cite for it, I think you could include a sentence like “A translation of X was announced in 2024, to be published by Y publisher.” If it’s just something the author has mentioned working on in interviews, I think that’s too speculative to include. I don’t think it’s super important to include forthcoming works since there’s nothing to say about them except the announcement, but if there’s sourcing I also don’t see the harm in including it. Just my take. ~ L 🌸  (talk) 06:29, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
 * That makes sense, I’ll go try to find some sources and specific info on forthcoming publishers etc. Lacanic (talk) 07:00, 9 March 2024 (UTC)
