From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"... continues his autobiography until present."

[edit]

   The sentence containing that phrase had already been false for a half year when contributed in November, as he's not dead yet, unless he lied. We'd best take him at his word: "I'll end where I began, on my seventieth birthday,...", per page 437 of the topic work.

Careless of me, make that read "over 4 years", and refer to the idea the sentence expresses, not the barely month-old sentence.

This is a contested technical request (permalink). Hhkohh (talk) 00:59, 9 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Hhkohh: How do you reconcile your position with our book-specific guideline, WP:SUBTITLE, which states:

Usually, a Wikipedia article on a book (or other medium, such as a movie, TV special or video game) does not include its subtitle in the Wikipedia page name, per WP:CONCISE. The only exception to that is short article titles, for disambiguation purposes.

WP:SUBTITLE is not a policy, just a guideline, see also WP:COMMONNAME and other related policy Hhkohh (talk) 09:50, 11 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
