Tagging
[edit]List needs to be sourced and references (see List of Jewish American journalists for an example). Tagging until this is done.--Isotope23 12:16, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
- How do you reference whether or not someone is jewish? - m0laria
Is "authors" the most appropriate word? Since this list excludes poets and playwrights (who are authors) for brevity and clarity, mightn't "Prose Authors" be more accurate?
- Maybe a link to the Poets, Playwrights, and other sections at the top would clarify which section this is? - m0laria
Should there be a separate page for children's vs. adult authors? -m0laria
I have removed all of the notations of "convert" as Judaism does not distinguish between Jews born Jewish and Jews who had converted. This is an unnecessary distinction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.7.165.28 (talk) 14:17, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
And Woody Allen? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.103.3.4 (talk) 04:10, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
What about Jonathan Safran Foer? and michael chabon?2601:D:CE00:898:6233:4BFF:FE21:9207 (talk) 02:54, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Orphaned references in List of Jewish American authors
[edit]I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of List of Jewish American authors's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
