Opening line[edit]

Shouldn't the opening line be "Alec S. Patrić is …"? See J. M. Coetzee, E. E. Cummings, and List of literary initials and http://agreg-ink.net/index.php?title=List_of_English-Speaking_Authors_Known_By_Their_Initials. -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 07:35, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Happy for you to change the opening sentence if you can find a reference to the author's first name. I couldn't find one, so left the entry as the name he uses on his books. Perry Middlemiss (talk) 10:42, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

What about the reference already used in the article – "Meet an Aussie Author - A. S. Patrić", ANZLitLovers weblog, 1 April 2015: opening sentence: "I first discovered A. S. (Alec) Patrić in 2012". -- Michael Bednarek (talk) 14:39, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I just missed it. It happens. Perry Middlemiss (talk) 22:59, 29 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
