Novel without Infobox (auto list): many novel articles do not have an infobox - and need one (auto generated list) - may need expansion of article too Our Collaboration Department is continuing with one more title The_History_of_Tom_Jones,_a_Foundling for the current month. Get collaborating on the article and also look at nominating other titles to be considered. The new article Fictional locations now exists - as a companion article to Fictional characters - but it is still a stub and could do with plenty more imput to improve it. Another new article A Taste for Death (P.D. James novel)‎ now exists - but it is also still a stub and could do with plenty more imput to improve it. A new Infobox exists to support the growing number of "Short Story" articles that are tagged as part of the project - take a look at it and comment on it's talk page. I would suggest we use it for "Short Stories and "Novelettes" and leave the main "Book infobox" for "Novels" and "Novellas". New hitlists added to the main worklist.

There's a few points in the current article which don't match my experience of the novel:

• despite the fact he never knew her real name and addressed her only as "Kiki."

  In fact he didn't even know her call-girl name until Gotanda tells him.

• the Dolphin Hotel has been ... and converted into a slick, fashionable, Western-style hotel

  There's nothing to suggest that the old Dolphin Hotel was not also Western-style. I certainly assumed it was. Even in Japan, traditional inns are a specialty.

• now a famous soap opera actor'

  Gotanda is a famous actor also in film and commercials

• The auhor of the References section has been highly critical of the book and has ailed to present a two sided opinion. Though not generally considered a classic, this novel has a lot to offer. Even if it didn't, it is against the Wikipedia policy to present a one sided argument.

I removed the whole passage as it is an opinion piece and not 'encyclopedic', but there is some useful info that can possibly be added to the article. Here[1] it is, for anyone willing to do that. --Dodo bird 10:45, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Title

The title has every Dance capitalized and does not have commas. See amazon. --SeizureDog 17:40, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
