message: I created a new article List of Wild Cards books and short stories and took the liberty to WP:BOLD-ly merge the twelve articles for individual books into it. These were the articles:
*Aces Abroad
*Aces High (anthology)
*Black Trump
*Card Sharks (anthology)
*Deuces Down
*Down and Dirty
*Jokers Wild (novel)
*Marked Cards
*Wild Cards (anthology)
*Ace in the Hole (anthology)
*Dead Man's Hand (anthology)
*Double Solitaire
While I can prove definitively prove notability for the series itself, notability for the individual novels is not immediately obvious. The articles themselves were straight plot summary and contents lists, which can be covered just as well in an overall list. If, in time, they are also prove notable, then the articles can just be recreated. Sidebar, the "(anthology)" in the titles for Ace in the Hole and Dead Man's Hand is a little confusing seeing as they're mosaic novels, not strictly anthologies. At any rate, everything has been merged. ~Cheers, TenTonParasol 00:41, 12 July 2016 (UTC)

message: How best to present this? Knaves Over Queens was published in the UK in June 2018, not published in the US until August 2019. Three Kings came out in the UK in May 2020, not yet published in the US, though available via transatlantic shipping of course. I guess they think, likely correctly that a British audience will be especially keen to get the British perspective.
The UK publisher is Harper Voyager, not Tor.
Should we have a separate section for the HV editions? Knowing that eventually the Americas will catch up? A note on the Tor editions (published in the UK 2020. NYA in the USA?) It's certainly noteworthy, but how best to note it?Nickpheas (talk) 10:16, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
