Novels Project‑class | |||||||

Just trying to start conversation here, as this should be started soon. Options I see are.
What is up now looks very good, but I am curious about the lack of ideas mentioned on this page.... Eagle ( talk) ( desk) 22:03, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
When looking at "frame story", I was thinking of Dan Simmon's "Hyperion". Definitely a frame story, but also definitely a science fiction story. I think books shuld be marked with the genre of the stories, not the genre "frame story".
I'd also like to drop some less-useful categories - like separating "whodunit" from "mystery". -- Alvestrand 22:13, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
Is there a reason we don't have Children's Novels as a category? I know there can be grey areas, but at the same time it seems like an obvious missing area? I'm going through categorising stubs at the moment and would have thought a children's-book-stub category was worth having, too. Thoughts, anyone?
I asked on another page but any clarification on horror novels vs. gothic novels? PeregrineV 18:49, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Is it just me or have more categories been added? I only ask beacuse I now see something called "Invasion novels" which I don't believe was there before. Is this our new list to use? PeregrineV 16:35, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
I found the official "red book" for Subject Headings [1]. Unfortunately, it's huge and costly. Perhaps there's an online version available. I plan to look into this on my next visit to my local library. Oroboros 1 11:14, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
Discussion has begun here about whether to conform to one or another of these forms for purposes of category naming. Her Pegship 01:08, 15 November 2006 (UTC)
