Adults, marketed for
Are the annotations "(marketed) for Adults" complete in that all novels and short story collections except these three were marketed for young people? What about the three DWJ-edited anthologies (her only edited books, and marketed for young people)? What about the two nonfictions? --P64 (talk) 17:56, 12 May 2012 (UTC)
Complete bibliography
The lead should state whether this bibliography is selected or (intended to be) complete. The template {{incomplete section}} can be used if and where it is "wanting".
Is anyone working by reference to a complete bibliography? --P64 (talk) 22:05, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
ISFDB
Here are the headings and subheadings for ISFDB's list of works.
- Fiction Series --book series
- Chrestomanci (6+1)
- Dalemark (4)
- Derkholm (2) --not including the nonfiction Tough Guide
- Howl's Castle (3)
- Magids (2)
- Novels (20) --in this context meaning Other novels
- Collections (6) --as sole author
- Anthologies (3) --as editor
- Chapterbooks (5) --definition?
- Nonfiction (2)
- Shortfiction (25) --some are contents of books listed previously
- Poems (1)
- Essay Series (1) --Jones contribution to a series by multiple authors?
- Essays (10)
- Reviews (1)
By plan, that is without duplication of story & book or book & omnibus. --P64 (talk) 22:05, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
Picture books
Has anyone seen Yes, Dear and Puss in Boots? Are they fully illustrated books probably intended for reading aloud to pre-school children? (If so, is she the illustrator or translator of Puss in Boots?) Is there such a version of Angus Flint?
I have seen "Angus Flint" only in the collection Stopping for a Spell. That is illustrated but not fully illustrated, only occasional black-and-white drawings. --P64 (talk) 21:53, 30 May 2012 (UTC)
Young adults
Which of her fiction books must be called "young adult" (or adult or adults', etc) rather than "children's" for reasonable accuracy? --not here but in the prose and in the {infobox} and categories of book articles.

Short fiction
Here are two listings that I deleted --after correcting the first and expanding both-- because it appears this bibliography lists only that short fiction neither published as a separate volume nor included in one of the all-Jones collections. These two are in the Jones collection Unexpected Magic (2004).
- "Fat Wizard", in Guardian Angels (Viking Kestrel, 1987)
- "Little Dot", in Firebirds (Penguin, 2003)
I doubt this bibliography should continue the approach I have described here, and followed in my revision last hour. In User space there is a table constructed last-last hour w ref ISFDB, which shows which short fiction appears in which of the six collections (abbreviated SWEABU).
