Untitled[edit]

Oh help! This article is filled with errors and misreadings and needs to be re-written. I'lll try to get to it in a while hypotaxis (talk) 04:52, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bit late, but I'll help! I've added a {{Wikify}} tag to highlight the issue. To my mind the following needs to be done:

Copy-editing. I'm going to have problems with this as I've not read The Shobies' Story (yet).
References. It looks like there are refs, but they need to be properly formatted.
FAQ. This should be incorporated into the main article.

I'm busy today, and likely to forget this tomorrow - if anyone reads this in the future and these issues haven't yet been addressed, do please ping me and I'll work on it.

Why the robot[edit]

It's rather a clever robot picture, but I'm pretty certain that everyone in the story was a human. No robots in any Le Guin story that I can think of. --GwydionM (talk) 18:23, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
