Work Required

Latest comment: 17 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I agree that a lot of work is needed here.

Over the past month or so I've been adding links to the winning authors and adding pages for them when they don't exist. Once I get through that lot (only 3 to go now) I'll start adding sub-ordinate pages for each year.

It's just a matter of finding the time.

Clearly references have been used and are somewhat indicated on the talk page above. Could someone who has contributed, clearly attribute those sources on the article itself?

I think this article would benefit from splitting off into

Miles Franklin Award - the existing article, discussing the award itself and changes such as the change from award being based on year book was published to year award was given. I would like to see more discussion of the award process, rather than "just" a list of winners - who nominates, who decides, etc.

Miles Franklin Award works / - the list of winners

Miles Franklin Award shortlisted works & longlisted works

I do think winners, shortlisted and longlisted works, are all noteworthy because they do bring attention to the work. Ga rr ie 23:56, 21 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Listing order

Latest comment: 15 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Listing authors, then publishers, then titles seems odd - I think the titles should come after the author before the publisher. What say others?Sterry2607 (talk) 08:02, 25 November 2008 (UTC)Reply

I agree. I looked at it the other day and couldn't remember my reasoning for doing it that way. I'll fix it later today. I'm also thinking of moving the shortlists and longlists to separate pages using this same sort of table format. Any thoughts? -- Perry Middlemiss (talk) 22:28, 25 November 2008 (UTC)Reply
