I've created a separate section for these, as they occupy a unique sub-category in Wells's work, and certainly shouldn't be placed in non-fiction as Things to Come was. Nick Cooper 14:49, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
The image Image:Invisibleman1stedition.jpg is used in this article under a claim of fair use, but it does not have an adequate explanation for why it meets the requirements for such images when used here. In particular, for each page the image is used on, it must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Please check
The following images also have this problem:

Why isn't this title listed? -- Ludvikus ( talk) 19:26, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
I note that Cosprings removed the annotation indicating which titles are available on the Project Gutenburg site. I suspect this may have been for copyright reasons, as while some works are public domain in the US (the standard Wikipedia works to), all of Wells's works remains in copyright in the UK and Europe until 31 December 2016.

Wikipedia is not affiliated with PG. Wikisource is its own PG, so really a direction to Here would be more appropriate. Wikisource is supposed to replace PG. Additionally, PG changes and updates frequently. The HG wells bibliography is meant to be permanent, and complete. Directing to PG deflects interest from Wikisource.

War of the Worlds is dated here as 1895, but in The Common Sense of War and Peace (1940), Wells writes on page 7 that "I published The Time Machine in 1893." So which publication date is correct?
I've just discovered that Category:Books by H. G. Wells has only 13 books in it. Someone might like to add the category to the many other books linked from this page! PamD ( talk) 16:36, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
This short story is reported to have been published in 1884 at this site: http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/w/h-g-wells/ However, this is incorrect. Here is a facsimile of its original production in 1894: http://www.storypilot.com/fiction/wells-a-family-elopement-scan.pdf The content of the story is clearly written by a 28-year-old, not an 18-year-old. Updating the Wikipedia entry with the correct year of publication. Besides, as everyone knows, "A Tale of the Twentieth Century" was Wells' first published story. Here's one of many references: http://www.ansible.co.uk/writing/ft-wells.html— Preceding unsigned comment added by DanQuigley ( talk • contribs) 04:27, 27 August 2014 (UTC)
How about a section or at least some information on movie/film or radio adaptions?-- Kmhkmh ( talk) 03:55, 8 January 2016 (UTC)
