Inadequate

This article is seriously inadequate. I didn't think that the newest series by the famed Ursula K. Guin would have such an measly page for the entire trilogy, let alone for a single book.

Someone please wikify and add additional content for the article. I would myself, but am regrettably occupied with work. Armuk (talk) 22:21, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

@Armuk: Agreed! and on it. --Thnidu (talk) 15:02, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Page titles

Because there was already a page Voices (novel) for a different book, I had to name the page for that book Voices (Le Guin novel); but the other two books in this trilogy had no such issue, and their pages could be, ought to be, and were given the obvious name [[______ (novel)]]. But for consistency I have created redirects to those other two from [[______ (Le Guin novel)]], so they can all be accessed in that form without trying to remember which one needs the "Le Guin" and which ones have to not have it. --Thnidu (talk) 01:25, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

refs & footnotes

@TheRedPenOfDoom: Thanks for the fixes and the tag. Getting everything into order for this series, from what there was, is a fairly complex job. I haven't been able to complete it yet (obviously), and furthermore I'm going to be off-line for a number of days, so it may be a week or more till I get this cleaned up.

Nice of the bot to archive this, but I reverted because the original link is still good. — Gorthian (talk) 19:04, 14 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Gorthian: I've restored the archive link. See WP:Pre-emptive_archiving. --Thnidu (talk) 19:44, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I wasn't sure preemptive archiving applied to external links. — Gorthian (talk) 19:48, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Gorthian: ?? Oh, you mean the External links section. Yes, as it says in WP:Pre-emptive_archiving, "The content of any webpage". We're all learning, or should be. :-)

BTW, I might not have seen your reply if this page weren't on my watchlist. That's why I always use {{Ping}}, {{u}}, or some such, unless I'm writing on someone's own talk page. --Thnidu (talk) 22:37, 18 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
