Talk:John C. Wright (author)

message: Got the information straight from the horse's mouth this time.  - LukeyBoy
Looks as though a lot of stuff has gotten lost in the edit war, both bio details and other stuff. Most obviously, while a wiki-search on the name still points here, his wife isn't mentioned. Though it looks like she's worth an entry of her own, as a published author. Otherwise, it looks as though Wright's career has been almost edited out of existence. The category-list is suggestive. But I wouldn't restore references to his children. 88.109.143.248 (talk) 08:03, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: It's probably better now than it was in December 2005, but it could still use some revision for more encyclopedic style.  And probably the biography should come before the bibliography, as seems to be more standard. --Jim Henry 14:34, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

message: The about the author bio on Orphans of Chaos gives the youngest child's name as "Juss" (which made me suppose he was named for the main hero of The Worm Ouroboros).  Can someone verify whether this is a typo and the correct name is "Just"?  And the phrasing,
:whom he calls Orville, Wilbur, and Just Wright. 
seems a little odd -- does it mean these are nicknames rather than real or legal names? --Jim Henry 14:34, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

You mean St John's right? since it wasn't mentioned. This article needs a rewrite. --Geedubber 03:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

message: I've added back in the old personal history section. On a hunch, I checked the interviews linked in the article - these seem to potentially provide sources for all that material, and there are a lot more anecdotes within them which we could use to further flesh out the article.

replies: text: Thank you for restoring that section; it was removed by a vandal.  Considering the ongoing recent vandalism, should this article be semi-protected? Almitydave (talk) 20:28, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: For now it looks to have quietened down, let's see how things go. If we see more anon vandals again, then we get get protection applied. LinaMishima (talk) 20:36, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

text: This should probably have a place in the article, I suspect  The Cross and the Stars - Catholics in the field of fantasy and science fiction. - need to check RS and N for the source, but looks useful. LinaMishima (talk) 21:45, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Controversy section. 

message: I've placed the  template on the controversy section, because the size and detail of it seems out of balance with the size and detail of the rest of the article leading to NPOV and BLP concerns.--Jahaza (talk) 21:07, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

message: John C. Wright, on his website  , says he graduated from St. John's College in Annapolis in 1984 (that would be a Bachelor of Science degree) and received his Juris Doctor in 1987 from the College of William and Mary Law School (aka Marshall-Wythe School of Law).  My edit that expanded and corrected the previous information was reverted.  I have reverted that revert.  173.73.172.102 (talk) 03:31, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
