In 2013 Colapeninsula noted (in History): "some of his books meet WP:NBOOK #5 [later changed to #4] through wide educational use". Unfortunately, he made no suggestions as to which books he thought met this classification, although he did add Medea and Other Plays and A Dictionary of Latin Words and Phrases (both OUP) to the article.
The most obvious candidate for WP:NBOOK #4 among Morwood's books is The Oxford Latin Course (co-author Maurice Balme), used in many schools and Universities in the UK and North America; only after that would I consider the Latin Dictionary, and probably also the Greek Dictionary.
Which, if any, of Morwood's books merit a separate article is unclear to me - in the case of Dictionaries, I suspect they should be included in the author's article. I refer here to the WP:NBOOK guideline: "In some situations . . . it may be more appropriate to feature material about the book in the author's article rather than creating a separate article for that book."
Does anybody have any views on this? In the meantime, I am researching The Oxford Latin Course for inclusion in the Morwood article. Brymor ( talk) 13:12, 31 December 2016 (UTC)
The Guardian obituary (Christopher Tyerman) is already referenced in a note. Two other obituaries were published in mainstream newspapers: The Times (Ed Gorman) and The Telegraph (Stephen Heyworth). Unfortunately, both of these are behind paywalls: what is our policy about linking to such items? I am not entirely happy about it. Brymor ( talk) 19:38, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
@Lajmmoore: I see you have tagged the statement that Morwood "enjoyed a good fight" with "Citation needed". This section is mostly derived from The Times obituary, so that could be cited here (yet again - it is already cited in the following paragraph), but I suggest this is unnecesary: the citation is in the text that follows - the whole section is an example of Morwood enjoying a good fight, and encouraged by The Spectator.
