[edit] Removal
I have removed the third paragraph of the section on internet erotica, because it consisted almost entirely of opinion-based criticism of internet erotica, containing next to no objective information. --24.20.3.195 03:49, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
I must disagree with the suggestion that Erotic literature be merged with Erotic Fiction. After all, not all literature is fiction; nor is all fiction literature.
I've removed the spam links put up by Cpappas several times now. I'm not all that opposed to the links and information, but it's being presented as pure spam links and that's not what Wiki is for. Zotdragon 21:04, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hi there
I read the FAQs, which said I should leave a comment here about doing a link exchange, because it is up to the author. I hope this comment gets deleted, because it is not the purpose for which these discussion threads are. Anyway, I would really love if my site is linked here, but understand if it isn't.

[edit] Nick Scipio's Summer Camp series.
I'm a fan of Nick Scipio's Summer Camp erotic fiction series. Though they are novel length, and I personally (along with the numerous awards he's won) believe them to be of great quality, Nick says on his website that he doesn't plan to publish the Summer Camp series. Is anyone else familiar with the series or think it notable enough for inclusion? TS1 05:44, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Should Sex Manuals be included here?
Can we really class the 'The Joy of Sex' as literature? Colin4C 10:43, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
I agree that sex manuals don't need to be listed here, especially since there is already a sex manual page. Furthermore, I find the organization and content of this article disappointing. Most of the article seems to deal with the legality of erotica, as well as providing a listing of "internet" erotica. I think the focus should be more on real erotic literature, and by literature, I don't mean internet fiction and romance novels. For example, there is no mention of the Private Case Erotica Collection of the British Library, one of the most important collections of its kind in any language. Anyone working on this article?

[edit] Erotic poetry
Erotic poetry is only mentioned in the introduction. A section should be included on it, or at least a link to such an article, if it exists. Rochelle CMN (talk) 04:42, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lolita
Nabokov said in his afterword that Lolita were not a erotic novel. I think it shouldn't be classified as erotic literature. Please check Nabokov's afterword ( at the end of any Lolita edition ) for detail. --201.88.237.63 (talk) 17:06, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
