Comments

I just wanted to mention a link which is referenced from the Emily Cox wikipedia article, but was not referenced here in the Henry Rathvon article. I do not know enough about wiki editing to modify the main page successfully. I hope someone will include information from this link in the main article and include the link in its references. And I want to mention that when I worked for AOL Communities (ACI), Emily Cox and Henry Rathvon for quite a few years also created/ran some puzzles/contests especially for the America Online members. Here you can see the biography that was posted at the Atlantic Monthly website back in the mid-1990s, which contains information about that work they did during that time period: https://www.theatlantic.com/past/docs/unbound/wordgame/crbio.htm And here also is a link to what remains as an archive of their puzzles made for The Atlantic Online during the AOL days: https://www.theatlantic.com/past/docs/unbound/wordgame/wgindex.htm Fallendarlin (talk) 06:50, 19 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Merge Cox and Rathvon?

It seems that Emily Cox (puzzle writer) and Henry Rathvon are notable as a pair, but it's less clear to me that they both need their own individual page. I think they should be covered in a way similar to the Coen Brothers or The Wachowskis since they always(?) collaborate and sources will discuss them as a pair. The fact the pair is often referred to by their joint pseudonym "Hex"^[1]^[2]^[3] also to me supports the idea of a merge.
