Talk:Detection Club
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It looks like most of this is a straight copy from this website: [1]. I think the list of titles is from here [2], although I don't think you can copyright just a list.
This is definitely a copy, although at least the author edited it a little. Bart133
- Could someone write a paragraph about the "known list of publications"? As far as I'm concerned, the following questions need to be answered:
- (1) Who is the author / are the authors of those books? Right now, there is no mention of the fact that they were written jointly, but why?
- (2) Are they all novels or do they include theoretical books?
- (3) Were they published, i e written for the public?
- (4) Are they available today?

If the club was founded in the 1930s, then why was Agatha Christie nearly kicked out of it for a novel she published in 1926? (see the Murder of Roger Ackroyd).

Changed to 1920s as I found another source, and it makes a little more sense. Big D 27 Jan 2006
[edit] Silly Links
I removed the link on "this day" in "continued to this day" because:
- It linked to 2006.
- Even if it were fixed to always link to the current year, it is pointless and misleading. Anyone reading the page would, I think, expect the given link to go somewhere discussion the club's existence today, or maybe even its history... but certainly not to an article on (current year).
I removed the link to code of ethics because it was a link to a disambiguation page. Rather than re-pointing it to the correct page, I struck it for similar reasons to the this day link: it'd be expected to be a discussion of the club's code of ethics, not of codes of ethics in general.
