Talk:Don Webb (writer)

message: I'm not sure that the convention appearances are necessary.  Many science fiction authors attend and participate in conventions, frequently numbering in the hundreds or more per authors.  They really are only notable if the author attends as a guest of honor.Shsilver (talk) 16:17, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

text: I lean heavily toward including active programming participation, rather than only Guests of Honour.  Each convention may only have a few guests, and several more interesting participants.  Of course the attendees would greatly outnumber the participants, and I don't see any point in noting attendees.  I added Armadillocon 30 because they had a participant bio for him (a schedule with specifics would be better).  I'm not sure about the others (I haven't checked them). Maybe "Convention Participation" or some better specific or other. Madamecp (talk) 21:09, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Yet most author entries don't include attending a convention as a panelist as it generally isn't defining or, particularly, important.  I've attended scores of cons, usually as a panelist, and I've programming many conventions, frequently making use of 100 or more panelists per convention. Unless there is something notable about the fact that he has been a panelist that would set him apart from the other panelists at a con (such as being the GoH), I just don't see it as being important enough to mention in this article.

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.
