Bibliography

I have commenced a Bibliography section:

Cite templates will be used where possible.
Tables may be used to organise short stories, poems and/or book reviews.
I prefer capitalization and punctuation to follow the standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, rather than "title case".
Links (either direct or indirect) to potentially unreliable or incomplete digitised copies and to booksellers may be removed.

Why put Jacob Geller in 'See Also'?

This is one of my first times posting on a talk page, so apologies if I do anything wrong. But as far as I can tell, Jacob Geller and Jamil Jan Kochai have nothing to do with each other. One is a video essayist who makes videos about games. The other is a writer who has written just one short story about playing Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, and isn't a game critic or reviewer of any kind. Just writing a short story about video games shouldn't qualify as some kind of connection to Jacob Geller, unless there's something I'm missing. I'm undoing the edit that created a See Also section and added Jacob Geller to it. Etryn (talk) 19:16, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kochai was one of the guest contributors mentioned for How a Game Lives, Geller's 2024 print essay collection. Orchastrattor (talk) 03:23, 30 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for clarifying! I'm not sure if contributing to one of Geller's books should be enough to qualify Geller to be in a "See Also" section, especially given Geller was the only person in that section. Maybe it could be added to Kochai's article elsewhere? Or an expanded See Also section could be created featuring other Afghan-American writers, and this time with an explanation for Geller's inclusion? Etryn (talk) 20:41, 31 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
