[edit] Sources
Regarding pseudonyms: In addition to Cyril Judd, Merril also published under Rose Sharon. See the introduction to this bibliography of Merril. http://libraryasp.tamu.edu/cushing/collectn/lit/science/sci-fi/JUDITH%20MERRIL-forPDF.pdf The introduction also contains additional details about Merril's publications that might be included in your article. --Gr1909 (talk) 02:21, 3 March 2008 (UTC)
A better-quality source than Judith Merril / "The Little Mother of Science Fiction" (on which i relied) would be valuable: its compiler isn't sure abt, for instance, the spelling of her mother's given name, or when her father suicided.

The article is quite weak on Judith's 30 years in Toronto, Canada. A good source would be Emily Pohl-Weary's biography, compiled in part from Judy's notes. Emily is Judy's granddaughter, btw, via Fred Pohl and his daughter Ann Pohl. Bellagio99 18:04, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
- The folks at the Merril Collection, part of Toronto's public library system, would probably have more sources than you could shake a Gaffi stick at. (But don't, 'cause that's rude.) AndroidCat 03:05, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Deleted Reg Hartt as a Friend
To be sure, Reg Hartt was a good friend of Judith Merril. But it doesn't seem appropriate to single him out in a special paragraph when there were at least 100 other good friends of Judith that were not mentioned. Perhaps someone could compile a list of the Friends of Judith Merril: Friendster meets Merril;-) Bellagio99 01:40, 6 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] lengthy?
shouldn't the first section be cut off after the first paragraph and have the rest of it under the title of biography or history or life or something? --66.134.52.222 04:57, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
- Good idea. I just made the edit.
