Typo in review

A reviewer's typo "obstensibly" is marked "[sic]". Kinder just to correct the typo? Meaning doesn't change and it slows down the reader.

      Corrected. 24.15.117.78 (talk) 19:38, 20 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Synopsis

This is not a synopsis, but an exhaustive summary complete with spoilers. Let's try to clean it up a little? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.25.191.170 (talk) 21:32, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is this more acceptable?--Bt109 (talk) 22:11, 25 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Take a look at WP:Spoiler. Wikipedia guidelines indicate that there is to be no warning for spoilers. –[[::User:Schmloof|Schmloof]] ([[::User talk:Schmloof|talk]] • [[::Special:Contributions/Schmloof|contribs]]) 00:09, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

I included no such warning. I was motivated by guidelines at WP:Plot_summaries to trim out a lot of unnecessary detail. Bt109 (talk) 00:41, 26 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I'm sorry. I meant that as a reply to the original message by the IP. I think you've done a fine job cleaning it up. Thanks a lot! –[[::User:Schmloof|Schmloof]] ([[::User talk:Schmloof|talk]] • [[::Special:Contributions/Schmloof|contribs]]) 03:03, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

Critical Reception

I found this review-I'll cite it later, after I finish the book, if no one else does first. http://shelf-life.ew.com/2010/08/24/mockingjay-review-spoiler-alert/ --Glimmer721 (talk) 19:42, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Status

Since the book is now out and we have a summary and more info, this is really no longer a stub. I'm going to remove the notice at the bottom of the page and change it to start-class. --Glimmer721 (talk) 21:08, 28 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that we still need some more info.

Themes section

I've added in a themes section which we should expand. Hopefully this can become a featured article! Derild 49 21 ☼ 00:54, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also added in an inspiration and orgins section. A bit repetive by the third book, but the bread and circues was new info. I'm trying to find the article where scholastic announces the title and cover. Anyone got that. Right now I have this this and this to use. Derild 49 21 ☼ 01:17, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, the "bread and circuses" thing was new to me, too. I'll need to but that under the section of Panem...where would I find a reference for that? --Glimmer721 (talk) 01:18, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This one. Derild 49 21 ☼ 13:51, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I'll site it in this section. --Glimmer721 (talk) 20:52, 3 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Please try to ad in some inforation under Promotion from this source. Thanks! Derild 49 21 ☼ 02:11, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article is in dire need of pictures. Ideas? Derild 49 21 ☼ 17:37, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Added one of the author. Derild, I sure do hope the refs in the lead that you deleted were contained elsewhere in the article… Airplaneman ✈ 18:30, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I made sure to add the information first. Derild 49 21 ☼ 18:32, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
