I think this article would greatly benefit from some organization, perhaps dividing the list into sections of novels and short stories. Chronological order should be maintained within the sections of course. Verkhovensky 06:04, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
Currently, "Family Happiness" is in the SHORT STORY section of this bibliography. Yet, if one clicks on the link, one reads "Family Happiness is an 1859 NOVELLA written by Leo Tolstoy." Furthermore, the article ends with "This article about a 19th century NOVEL is a stub." As well as, "Categories: NOVELS by Leo Tolstoy | 1859 NOVELS| 19th century NOVEL stubs." Luckily, I own a collection of Tolstoy's works that includes "Family Happiness;" in this collection, "Great Short Works of Leo Tolstoy," "Family Happiness" is 81 pages long. Wikipedia's article on "novellas," states that a story is typically considered a novella if between 85 and 300 pages. Personally, I do not care if "Family Happiness" is considered a short story or a novella, I just wanted to point out these contradictions. -- Quicksandhigh 16:01, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
I have added "Aloysha the Pot" to the short story section. Tolstoy wrote this short story in 1905. In the anthology, "Great Short Works of Leo Tolstoy" the short story takes up seven pages. If no one objects, I will write, or at least begin, an article on "Aloysha the Pot." If anyone has any suggests or would like to help me out, feel free to let me know. -- Quicksandhigh 16:18, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
I read this book recently, and unless it has some alternative name, it has yet to be listed here. Would appreciate if it popped up. ~~ -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deadagain33 ( talk • contribs) 22:53, 24 October 2014 (UTC)

theres a piece of work by tolstoy missing from the list "The Decabrists - excrepts from a planned novel" (Декабристы, 1860. date according to https://chitanka.info/text/25455-dekabristi) (actually the link is Bulgarian online library, but thats probably not lessening its credibility as a source).
(1878-Hungarian translation).

A discussion is taking place to address the redirect Tolstoy writings. The discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2021 March 5#Tolstoy writings until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.

I just modified a bit the bibliography, but I stopped now since Tolstoy wrote a myriad of short works, and the translations sometimes are difficult to find. The bibliography is from:
The Life of Tolstoy, Biriukov (1911) [1]
This source is rather old and I think a lot is lost in translation. The result is neither accurate (there are a few non-existing entries which I corrected already), or complete. Moreover, a few entries in the book are not present in the Wikipedia page. I can not find a complete source of all the material written by Tolstoy, but it can be inferred by putting together the information from various sources, in particular the two works of Wiener and Dole. This can be done, but I am unsure if this is the right way to go, and this should be a significant effort. I would appreciate feedback on how to proceed.
