Talk:List of lesbian fiction

message: Are there pages at ALL for any of the series' listed in this section? if so, perhaps somebody should redirect all those red-links to the relevant articles, or perhaps make it a subproject/article drive in WP:LGBT.
Or, of course, it could be deleted. Polymathematics 05:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Mystery Novels

message: I added a poet (Luz María Umpierre) to the list but just added her at the end. The list is organized chronologically (to a certain respect) but this could be clearer.--Lawrlafo (talk) 19:05, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Structure of Poets section?

message: There is no clear criteria by which we are to even judge which works should be added to this list, let alone how to find sources. What is the difference between works that treat "lesbian themes" in passing versus more substantively? What sources can verify this distinction? I suspect that for the  majority of works here there is no secondary source in existence to back up listing it. We need to think about renaming this article. K. the Surveyor (talk) 06:25, 4 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Much of the information was deleted because it seems quite questionable and unsourced. For example the article had formerly stated that the central work of "lesbian literature" was the poetry of Sappho, without a source. Where did this information come from? Unsourced information can simply be deleted per WP:BURDEN. In fact this entire article could be deleted, but I declined to list it because I think the topic is notable despite the lack of sources. K. the Surveyor (talk) 21:21, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

text: Also, please note that some of the information was only moved to List of poetry portraying sexual relations between women, and was not deleted. K. the Surveyor (talk) 21:32, 4 November 2010 (UTC)

text: You are certainly not out of turn and may change the name back at any time, but keep in mind that this page has no citations. I was planning to add some soon. However, unless the adjective "lesbian" is actually used by a secondary source to classify the novel (e.g. as "lesbian fiction" or the like) then it will not be possible to source under the new name and hence will eventually be removed. So most of this page or maybe even all of it may wind up being deleted as a result. —K. the Surveyor (talk) 06:15, 11 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  This page has serious problems 

message: ...and actually look in the text of these books to find the words to cite. I will do this for the "classic fiction" section sometime in the next month. 
Also I am thinking of deleting most of the mystery novels section since it mostly contains characters and authors and not books. —K. the Surveyor (talk) 04:06, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Somebody needs to go to the library 

message: Some lists of books have been added to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion. You can find the discussions here. RockMagnetist (talk) 22:54, 5 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alert: lists of publications in Articles for deletion 

message: We'd like to add the statistics of the 2000s books, expanding the summary of Annie of my Mind, summarizing what it's about and also discussing the impact it had on the community. Then I'd still like to add information of Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, giving a brief summary and then talk about it's importance and impact, including it's important in today's lesbian literature.
Additionally, we'd like to add research on the developing themes of lesbian literature, specifically those that have contributed to evolutionary perspective of lesbian relationships and individuals, as well as overall development of lesbian literature and critiques.

message: The Lamp and the Bell, a somewhat obscure play published by historical American poet Edna St. Vincent Millay, is very sapphic. Millay was herself at least Bisexual. It was published in 1925, I believe. Could another editor add it to the list where appropriate? Atomic putty? Rien! (talk)  (talk) 16:17, 29 June 2022 (UTC)
