Funk & Wagnalls

Besides the title, all references to the name of the publisher in the text are to Funk & Wagnalls. Why does the article title use and? Tskoge 21:21, 3 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]


The article says that Funk & Wagnalls only exists as an online service to educational institutions, but my family still receives a print copy every year. TEMcGee 00:03, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Do they still make Funk & Wagnalls dictionaries (My dad has a 1984 one which is obviously out of date) A 2006 edition would be really cool.... Oh never mind.... i found out that Microsoft encarta has bought it up so they no longer make funk & wagnalls.

i must wonder of the 1912 date given, because my S.D.o.t.E.L. is a 1903 copyright, with gorgeous lithography. Ronrossignol 16:37, 27 January 2007 (UTC)ron rossignol, biddeford, maine[reply]

my error. Ronrossignol 16:39, 27 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Citation from Buck Rogers

Needs style cleanup, since quote appears more relevant than the list of references (it is bolded and unindented). Added a tag accordingly. Biblbroks 23:58, 23 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Split

Thiat article should be split into articles on the publisher and the various works it published (especially the encyclopedia). —Ruud 21:35, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agree, although maybe there won't be enough material in two articles if this one is split. But, if you think it will, go ahead. BiblbroksTalk2me]] 09:04, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
How about start a section on the various publications in this article and then see how it goes. If it grows so it is taking over then it can be split of later. I'm a fan of F&W Standard Dictionary of Folklore, Mythology, and Legend which is still a definitive reference book in the field. (Emperor 21:49, 18 December 2006 (UTC))[reply]
