Jacko ??[edit]

Jacko (1993), madness and television.

What does this refer to? Did he really write such a novel? JackofOz 04:02, 17 January 2007 (UTC) (no relation)[reply]

Looks like he wrote it. Have a look at http://www.middlemiss.org/lit/authors/keneally/jacko.html and http://www.amazon.com/Jacko-Great-Intruder-Thomas-Keneally/dp/0340632437/sr=8-1/qid=1169015043/ref=sr_1_1/105-3689168-2052412?ie=UTF8&s=books Phaedrus86 06:23, 17 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bear in mind he's basically an idiot.--Jack Upland (talk) 09:21, 10 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Name change[edit]

Keneally did not change use the name Thomas to keep his identity secret from his family, and the article cited [http://www.australianbiography.gov.au/keneally/ does not say this. --Mateymate 15:28, 14 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted incorrect "correction" and added full reference (which I omitted before)[edit]

I have reverted the change made from "good will emerged" to "good will emerge" back to the correct "good will emerged". I suspect it really should be "goodwill" but the transcript I've quoted from makes it two words, which I appreciate can be confusing. When I quoted it I made the footnote but didn't - must have got interrupted - put in the full citation/link. It's there now - so can be checked. Sterry2607 05:45, 11 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography[edit]

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. ISBNs and other persistent identifiers, where available, are commented out, but still available for reference. This is a work in progress; feel free to continue.
