Talk:List of literary adaptations of Pride and Prejudice
Pride and Prejudice literature
Since there are now 100's of P&P inspired authors, I suggest that this page be broken down into historical and contemporary novels and only include traditionally published authors. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pemberlolly (talk • contribs) 00:24, 12 September 2010 (UTC)
Due to the size of the genre's fan base and the way most traditional publishers work, many traditionally published P&P inspired authors return to self-publishing, which include a few still on this page. Very few P&P inspired authors seek a publisher these days due to the lack of promotion and attention they receive from a traditional publishing house. To separate and exempt authors from a page on this genre due to this criteria shows a decided lack of knowledge of this genre. Moreover several P&P inspired authors who have been traditionally published are no longer listed on this page when they were before the purge (ex. Marilyn Brant and Monica Fairview). This stipulation should be re-evaluated. Ldb531 (talk) 08:38, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
- I agree that the criterion of self-publication should not be the driving factor, but, as noted below (see "Pruning"), that either the book or its author already have a Wikipedia article indicating that they are notable. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 22:14, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Pride-and-Prejudice-TV-miniseries.jpg

Image:Pride-and-Prejudice-TV-miniseries.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Radio
We seem to be missing radio adaptations of which there was at least one (and probably many!) by the BBC. --kingboyk (talk) 16:53, 26 August 2009 (UTC)
Pruning
Surely many authors have created fan fiction based on Pride and Prejudice. This listed should be limited only to works created by notable authors (i.e. those who already have a Wikipedia article). WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 16:56, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- The discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Conviction: A Sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice ended with a consensus to merge the contents to this list. It is unfortunate that the discussion was not publicized at this talk page, nor does it seem apparent that the participants took note of this recent pruning or its rationale. However, I am disinclined to merge the contents of Conviction: A Sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice as neither the book nor the author seem to merit inclusion at Wikipedia. In order to avoid becoming a name-checking repository for everyone who ever wrote Pride and Prejudice fan fiction, WP:CSC dictates that this list should be limited to entries where either the author or the work itself merit their own Wikipedia article. As this work has clearly been decided not to merit inclusion, it should not either be included at this list. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 00:55, 28 December 2016 (UTC)
- The merge appears to have been done anyway. I'm still not convinced that this material belongs in this article. As I've mentioned, this list should be limited to only notable works or works by notable authors. If we allow non-notable works by non-notable authors, every work of fan-fiction would have a place here, making this list rather indiscriminate. I'd like to see some discussion about this rather than just single-handedly taking action. WikiDan61ChatMe!ReadMe!! 01:02, 29 December 2016 (UTC)
- I have temporarily reverted the merge. Personally, I don't see where the information fits in here. There are lots and lots of adaptations of Pride and Prejudice and I don't see a need to list all of them. If it ultimately doesn't fit in here, I would say it is cleaner to get rid of the article itself. No point in leaving a redirect behind. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 14:14, 29 December 2016 (UTC)

Visiting two years later, I was surprised to find a list with over a thousand entries, where there are 7 instances of "(1" (above the footer box), "more than 1000" instances of "(2" and just one reference. Most of this was contributed by "49.177.229.185", so communication is difficult. Planning to prune again unless anyone has objections.MagteiContrib 20:21, 6 March 2019 (UTC)
