Barbara Park bibliography

Featured list candidates/Barbara Park bibliography/archive1

Nominator(s): Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 21:47, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It's been a while since I've been at FLC, but after finishing the article on Barbara Park I decided to fill out the bibliography as well. The Junie B. Jones books were childhood favorites of mine, so it's been fun to revisit them. I've annotated each entry with a brief description of the book and wrote a lead that summarizes the sequence of the publications. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 21:47, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Drive-by (QoH)

FYI I've moved the page to Barbara Park bibliography, for consistency with the rest of Category:Bibliographies by writer. charlotte ^👸♥ 01:16, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Would it break anything if we renamed this page and updated the name at WP:FLC? Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 16:28, 28 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Since no one answered you, no, and it didn't :P Hey man im josh (talk) 18:42, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

"Barbara Park, an American author, has written many children's books" - as she is deceased, this should be "Barbara Park, an American author, wrote many children's books"
"This was followed by The Kid in the Red Jacket" - as the previous sentence covered two books, the subject should be plural
"Junie B. starts her first day of kindergarten" - suggest linking kindergarten, as this is not a term commonly used outside the United States and readers in other countries may not know what it means
"Junie B. is not allowed to take her dog to Pet Day at school" - Pet Day was not written with caps earlier....?

History6042

All sources need archive links and dates.
- Are archive links required by the featured list criteria? My understanding was that they are often considered unnecessary and in-the-way if there isn't a specific reason to include them.
All sources should have source date.
- All sources with available dates already have the dates listed. For those that do not, there is an access date in its stead.
I think all instances of Judie B. Jones where they are just Judie B. should be Jones because people (I am not sure about fictional characters) are normally referred to by last name or full name, almost never first name.
- MOS:SURNAME says to use common names for fictional characters.
Could any images be added?
- None of the author's works are in the public domain, and her article uses a non-free image.
Should a link to Judie B. Jones be added in the article body and the lede, not just the lede.
- I've added {{Main}} with a link.
"Junie B. My Valentime" has a typo.
- As shown by the source, that is the correct spelling of the title.
Ping when done. History6042😊 (Contact me) 01:14, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- History6042, I've replied to your points above. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 🛸 01:36, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  Okay, the only thing I would respond to that is that I would perfer archive links but if they are not needed then I am happy to support. History6042😊 (Contact me) 01:37, 1 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey man im josh

Your references all use YYYY-MM-DD format, which really isn't standard. You should pick MDY or DMY and add the relevant template. This will also help for consistency if any references are changed in the future.
Do you typically not just not add wikilinks? I only ask because of ref 8, the New York Times, which I would normally ask for a link for (but I understand not everyone links, which is consistently applied in this case, so no need to do this necessarily)
Ref 8 – Add the url-access parameter, as it's behind a paywall for me
Ref 10 – Is there a reason you're using just 2013 instead of the listed original publish date of 16 January 2013?

That's all I've got, good stuff Alien! Please ping me when you reply. Hey man im josh (talk) 18:46, 30 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
