== Author's viewpoint about their own book == |
|||
In a recent discussion [[Talk:The_Forgotten_Holocaust#Lukas|here]], about an academic book, another editor made a claim that "The author's viewpoint about their own book is not a viewpoint that is WP:DUE in the "reviews" section of a Wikipedia article about the book." (This is in the context of an author replying to a critical review mentioned in our article about said book). I disagree, but we could use a [[WP:3O]] and more. <sub style="border:1px solid #228B22;padding:1px;">[[User:Piotrus|Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus]]|[[User talk:Piotrus|<span style="color:#7CFC00;background:#006400;"> reply here</span>]]</sub> 05:34, 19 February 2023 (UTC) |

Nonfiction or Non-fiction?
The article, currently at Nonfiction, has been moved back and forwards several times, most recently in an undiscussed move in 2019.
The category, currently Category:Non-fiction, is currently being discussed at Wikipedia:Categories_for_discussion/Log/2023_January_16#Category:Non-fiction with a suggestion it be moved to Category:Nonfiction.
This seems relevant to this project. PamD 20:02, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
- The CfD discussion was closed as "no consensus". There is now a discussion at Talk:Nonfiction#Requested_move_1_February_2023. PamD 08:47, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
Gospel of John
Is John a "book," within the definition of this project? I'm not making a judgment; I'm just curious. It was recently added by including {{WikiProject Books}} on Talk:Gospel of John by an experienced editor. The three synoptic gospels have not been added.
