As the works are in chronological order anyway, I feel it’s a bit pointless having them listed as “contemporary” and “modern”. I also dislike the fact we have alternate histories mixed in with dramatizations and sci-fi. Therefore I’ve changed the structure to have “Historical Events”, “Period Fiction”, “Fantastical Fiction” and “Alternative Histories” as the heading. I’m not overly happy with these titles, so please change them if anyone can think of something better. Finally if anyone’s really upset about the change of structure, I’ll change it back… Phunting 17:01, 16 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Alternative histories

edit

Many of the works in this section are mnot alternative histories as when they were writen they were about evetns yet to happen not alternative versions of the past or presnet. I would therfore sugest that a new section is established called failed futures.[[Slatersteven (talk) 14:49, 23 April 2009 (UTC)]]Reply

I take your point, but I think a dedicated section would be overly specific to one rather obscure genre. I've changed the title to "Alternative histories and speculative futures". Phunting (talk) 10:25, 6 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
