This page draws heavily from Andrew Sanders's The Short Oxford History of English Literature without citing it as the source.

Are there direct or virtually direct quotations? If so, it is WP:COPYVIO if not referenced, and for short fair use quotes. If it is adapted, it should be referenced. Perhaps you could look at this, if you have the book. Of course, both may derive from a common source, if the wording is different. Johnbod 15:44, 13 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

I believe the name "Cædmon manuscript" has fallen out of fashion; most recent articles and books call it "Junius manuscript" or "Junius 11". Shouldn't we move this article? – Swa cwæð Ælfgar (talk) 16:06, 7 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Shall we take a vote? I'm in for the same reason. --Akhenaten0 (talk) 19:33, 7 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Cædmon manuscriptJunius manuscript – As can be seen in the bibliography, current scholarship tends to use "Junius manuscript" rather than "Cædmon manuscript". The idea that the MS contains poems by Cædmon has been discarded for a while now, and keeping the poet's name in the title could be misleading. – Swa cwæð Ælfgar (talk) 08:27, 13 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
