Infobox lists of books and awards appear to be indiscriminate[edit]

The Infobox's "notableworks" contains "The Panopticon, The Sunlight Pilgrims (novel), The Dead Queen of Bohemia (New & Collected Poems), Urchin Belle (Poetry), There's A Witch in the Word Machine (poetry)". I did a web search on one of the books and in the first page of results saw no independent reliable sources. This list contains all of her books. I suggest it is unlikely that they are all notable. The awards section contains a long list of entirely unsourced awards, which leads me to believe the infobox is being used as a dumping ground for everything. I would like to strip it back to those that are notable. -Lopifalko (talk) 06:27, 19 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

They seem to have crept back in and also the infobox appears to be advertising a book not yet out! I have removed as we are not here to advertise the author’s catalogue. Notable works is covered at WP:NBOOK. Mramoeba (talk) 20:20, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Single subject editing[edit]

There seems to be a fair amount of editing by several editors who are only here for this page. The tone and style of the edits appears to look like advertising, possibly by a publishing house or representative and if so could indicate conflict of interest. If you feel this may apply to you as an editor please take the time to read Wikipedia’s pages on WP:COI.Mramoeba (talk) 20:25, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I also notice several unsourced statements added which are also unduly promotional. I will assume good faith but if no citations are available they will be removed shortly. Mramoeba (talk) 20:32, 7 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
