Talk:Cyberpunk (short story)

Contradictory info in Novel section

@Kazvorpal: I recovered material in this section that was not displayed due to a faulty ref tag set. There are problems: the narrative about selling and not publishing the novel now seems self-contradictory or maybe redundant. Was it not published because the publisher "regained his sanity and decided not to release it", or because the ending was not changed as requested? Also, several claims lack anything I could find in your citations so I had to add citations needed tags. Can you address these issues prior to the DYK appearance?

• Thanks for fixing what I'm guessing was my typo. I think it can safely be seen as self-evident that when he says "recovered his sanity" he was being self-deprecatingly ironic, trying to make it clear he was glossing over some unfortunate story...which he actually went into years later, in the other quote. — Kaz (talk) 17:24, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

@Kazvorpal: Regarding your edit reversion which I just undid and which has this edit summary: These are covered by the existing citations, if you bother reading the material cited: Well I did look at the reference cited at the end of the end of this paragraph before I made that edit - and again now - and it is merely the e-book referenced there. There is no historical info provided at all in that reference. If there is another reference backing up this material, you must cite it on the sentences, or at least on the paragraph. Having references for this material elsewhere in the article is insufficient. (BTW, I could find it in none of the current references!) Surprised you think otherwise.
