Talk:Ghost Story (The Dresden Files)

I'm going to attempt to make some minor clean ups on this page. Even though the book has been released, the page is (largely) written as if there are only pre-release spoilers. I don't have the time to do a major clean up. Hopefully someone else will follow my lead. Additionally, the plot section is incomplete. It almost looks like it was written "realtime" by someone reading the book. I've only just finished it myself, and need to think about it before I work on the plot. 170.145.0.100 (talk) 23:23, 2 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The main thing that needs to be added is a critical reception section with reviews from various newspapers and such. SilverserenC 01:19, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a tag for excessive spoilers? Speaking as an editor, there's too much here. Speaking as a fan, the spoilers presented on this page ruin the experience of reading the book if found first. Alienplayer (talk) 15:37, 12 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup

[edit]

I just took out an unsourced claim in the opening paragraph, and blew out the entire 'summary of changes' section, which I don't think is really necessary. I can understand having such a section in the previous book (though even then, it might be more appropriate for the fan wiki than this one) because the previous book was about changes in the main character's life, and was even titled as such. This one, however is about what the author stated it to be about: Dresden comes back as a ghost to solve his own murder in the thirteenth book.

I think there are enough references (basically the only thing that needs to be verifiable online is that the book exists, everything else is either sourced or comes from the book itself) as of my last edit to justify removing the sources tag, as well.

Good call. Many of the book articles on wikipedia are almost a condensed version of the original text. Efficacious (talk) 21:00, 22 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
