Shakespeare or not Shakespeare

[edit]

I think it would be nice to structure the list based on what is derived from Shakespeare, and what not.

I assume, however, onyl Leir of Britain would go in the "not" category. Therefore, I would suggest the article should start:

King Lear is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, named for the pseudohistorical king of Britannia Leir of Britain.
King Lear may also refer to a number of performances of Kin Lear, or works derived from it:
...

Also, I don't think it is clear why some items go into the "See also" section , and others not. (Works named "King Lear" and nothing else could go in the list proper, and everythin else in the See also, but I don't think that would make much more sense.) (talk) 19:02, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
