Bibliography

The bibliography here seems messy. Can it be cleaned up or perhaps moved to another article? TigressofIndia (talk) 20:04, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Science Fiction Project

I have added Tanith Lee to the Science Fiction Project because of accolades from sci-fi societies, including that mentioned in the article: "She was one of the Guests of Honour at Orbital 2008 the British National Science Fiction convention (Eastercon) held in London in March 2008." I also assessed the article under the guidelines of that project, with "Mid" importance due to the fact that she is mostly known for fantasy and horror. But she is certainly notable for the science fiction community. Doomsdayer520 (Talk|Contribs) 14:04, 10 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the links on this page do not link to anything substantial

This page has a systemic use of links which simply go to redirect pages and straight back to the original page. I've had to remove six links so far which do this! It also seems to be a problem with pages of her novels -- They are frequently merely the tiniest of stubs, and quite a number of them also circle right back to themselves. I don't have much time to hunt this nonsense down, but I feel it ought to be fixed. It does a real disservice to a talented author to make such a ... I don't know what to call it ... an insubstantial tangle of useless links. I'm have posted a copy of this on the village pump page as well.

I've merged several of the one line book articles into their respective series articles. Then changed the redirects to go the series article and removed the wikilinks on this page. There is still a lot of work needed to make these series articles decent though.--Tbennert (talk) 20:23, 27 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I've been adding infoboxes and books covers, which hopefully helps. I'm not familiar with a lot of Lee's work so I wasn't comfortable deleting existing pages; someone else is welcome to merge them if that's appropriate. -CaptainJae (talk)

Death

Found one news report so far [1], but it's all over SF Twitter - David Gerard (talk) 13:50, 26 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Blood of Roses isn't listed in her bibliography I believe.

Tanith Lee's The Blood of Roses isn't listed in her bibliography. Is someone able to fix that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:30A:2C0E:5620:F5CD:F114:D052:BB4C (talk) 18:51, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of influences

I would like to remove the lists of influences, which are lengthy to the point where they become not useful. Please let me know if you have comments. Tacyarg (talk) 11:50, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Awards section references

Most of the awards listed have no references. Two that do have references are sourced to Wikipedia itself. If someone would like to clean up the awards by finding references, that would be great. Counterfeit Purses (talk) 03:07, 10 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
