[edit] The Dark Age (series)

I'm new to this and have been working on this article since it was added to the WikiProjectNovels, following the guidelines. I would appreciate an opinion on it, in order to get it rated higher than start class. Many thanks Disrepdog 21:31, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] First look

Response depends on how many are scanning this page for changes.
First reaction, is a nice article; although it appears to me to be largely an article about the individual stories put together. As the article is titled "series" I would expect a bit more about the series as a whole and particularly more third party reviews, comment, reaction, notability, success etc; and as much as possible verifiable. Having said that a good start has been made with the groundwork being made to plit off the individual title element to their own articles should the content grow.
Also the infobox should go! as it is designed to be for individual title articles and this is arather forced use to make it work for a series. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 15:15, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. Maybe "trilogy" would be better than "series" If I take the info box out do I put the publishing info further down then? And do the images need to go too? Disrepdog 15:32, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
the norm is to use the "commonly" used term for the series. Trilogy is only going work though if the author sticks the count of three. On the covers, yes they should go, however the list of novels should be prominent perhaps even in list format as part of the lead. The publication details can appear lower down as part of a "Publication history" section later in the article. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 16:45, 17 October 2007 (UTC)
I've added some more info and references and would really appreciate your opinion now please. It is a trilogy so how do I change the article title if indeed I can? Also how do I get the rating changed if you agree it has moved above start class? Many thanks Disrepdog 19:16, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
I have change the rating - I don't believe the name change is necessary. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 16:07, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
