I think the biographical dates detract from the page, and can be easily found from the author entries themselves. I'd suggest they be removed. User:jrbray 16 Jan 05

Order?

Shouldn't there be some kind of order (alphabetical seems easiest) to this list? --Tahren B 05:36, 16 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Yes, as it is we should strive for alphabetical. But categorization by period of the works might be more useful. Admittedly, some authors of historical novels span quite a range, such as Mitchener.

Notability

Please only list people who qualify as notable under Wikipedia criteria. In general, either the person is already the subject of an article, or they are prominently named in an article (for example, as a member of a band), or you are getting started on writing that article. If the author's historical novel is not mentioned in their Wikipedia article, please include a source citation next to their name in the list. If they are notable, have no article, but are prominently named in a Wikipedia article, please use a piped link to that article (and section) from their name. If you are inserting a name prefatory to writing the article about a notable person, please cite a source here for notability and for their authorship or a historical novel. Thanks. See in particular Wikipedia:Notability (people)#Lists of people. --Bejnar (talk) 17:18, 19 March 2011 (UTC)Reply
