message: "The couple have lived in Monti, Rome, Italy, from November 2006 to 2007" ?
This a) uses the wrong tense (it should be just "lived") and b) the dates make no sense. If they lived there from November to January the following year, for instance, that could be as little as 32 days and would constitute nothing more than a long holiday.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.33.226.247 (talk) 20:16, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

message: Why is there a Wikipedia entry on such a minor writer?
This guy sounds like an upperclass british twit with good connections(famous girlfriend)..
A lot of this stuff sounds like a vanity write-up..God save art if we end up giving such self-important douchebags the attention they so crave...Wikipedia is now just a tool of the Man.
Two last paras sound suspiciously like pasted-in blurb... ZephyrAnycon 00:04, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

message: I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates and tables for short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.
