[edit]Why remove allowable fair-use image? At least wait for replacement with some crappy autograph-line snapshot by wikipedian before yoinking. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 151.151.73.166 (talk) 22:31, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit]This page reads like an info-mercial -- 212.179.78.104 (talk) 17:59, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
A good interview
[edit]This: [1]. It's in audio format. I'm not sure how I'm going to include the stuff he says in these articles, but it has information on him, on Newford, and on the novel Widdershins. marbeh raglaim (talk) 06:07, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
A note about that Citybook entry
[edit]I don't own the book by Applecline that's referenced. Someone who does might want to check if it really say that Citybook II is a supplement to Mercenaries, Spies & Private Eyes. That is not correct. It's just Citybook II: Port o' Call. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.230.84.97 (talk) 17:24, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
Bibliography
[edit]I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates and tables for short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. Feel free to continue. Sunwin1960 (talk) 05:47, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

Puff piece?
[edit]I came across this article when seeking information about a writer unfamiliar to me. My immediate reaction was that it reads like a publisher's biography or similar promotion. The mention of memorial donations for his recently deceased wife is more appropriate for her obituary. Many of the "webmaster" links now fail.
Another editor made a similar assessment in 2007. I'm unfamiliar with the guidelines for biographies but would flag it for review. Humpster (talk) 11:09, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
