Plot summaries

[edit]

The plot summaries seem to be copied word for word from some blog and contain not very encyclopediac references to the blog writer's personal likes and dislikes. Best to delete this section? Colin4C (talk) 09:05, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, though someone obviously spent a fair amount of time on them at some point in the past.45ossington (talk) 16:07, 20 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
The original blog editor obviously put some effort in, but the wikipedia editor just did a cut-and-paste job methinks! Some referenced info to plot points might be a good idea, though detailed plot summaries of random individual short stories are not particularly useful or encyclopediac I would have thought.
