thread_title: Wealth

message: This appears on Hillerman's website however a quick (but not thorough) Google search turns up nothing about this center or the award that's not Hillerman-related. --A. B. 13:42, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Center for the American Indian's Ambassador Award?

message: The article seems to have been hijacked by an Upfield enthusiast.  Hillerman's work was highly original, and he was mainly inspired by the people of his native Southwest.  There is too much about Upfield in this article.  Obituaries of Hillerman make greater mention of his contact with Navajo veterans during and after World War II as an inspiration.

thread_title: Too much about Upfield

message: There is nothing in the article about ethnicity. 
I thought I read somewhere he was part Native American?
Who were his parents?

thread_title:  Ethnicity  

message: Never heard of this. As far as I'm aware, there were three American Mystery episodes, Skinwalkers, Coyote Waits, and Thief of Time.  - Parsa (talk) 03:50, 18 October 2009 (UTC)

message: I moved this anonymous contribution here -- it's uncited and was put in the wrong place:
"Hillerman was awarded the Parris Award (named in honor of Parris Afton Bonds) by the Southwest Writers Workshop for his outstanding service to other writers."
If someone would care to research this, we could create an award section -- oddly, there isn't one now. --Pete Tillman (talk) 17:55, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: There is an Awards section now, with all the specific awards mentioned in it, including the unattributed sentence above.Yes, it does seem to be named for Parris Afton Bonds. Text about specific awards was removed from the Biography section, moved to Awards, and new sources found documenting the awards to novels, his memoir, or himself. --Prairieplant (talk) 21:47, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: FWIW, I'm fine with including the military awards in with the writing stuff, on the Keep It Simple principle. Cheers, Pete Tillman (talk) 05:58, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

message: The photo of Tony Hillerman was pulled from Wikipedia use, so a new one is needed. Does anyone know where to find one? --Prairieplant (talk) 21:49, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Done. --Pete Tillman (talk) 00:12, 25 July 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  new photo of author needed 

message: In other series, there is a box at the bottom of the page with links to all the Wikipedia articles on the author and the books written. The main series by Hillerman, the Joe Leaphorn / Jim Chee series is done as 'Infobox novel series', which is different than the 'infobox book' that I have seen in a few other series. I find the nav boxes helpful when I am reading a series, to look at the article on one book or another, and to see the scope of the series at a glance. To have the nav box, would it be necessary to revise the book articles in Wikipedia to the infobox book format? I think I could do that for Hillerman's books. But the nav box itself has parameters I do not understand.  --Prairieplant (talk) 09:45, 11 January 2015 (UTC)
