What prevents non-notable authors from adding their name to this list? (I found this page after examining the contribs of a non-notable author who added a page for her book.) - Aagtbdfoua15:40, 10 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
As Aagt...'s question insinuates, and as their parenthetical comment stands as evidence, the answer is "Nothing can prevent it!" Nevertheless, the diligence of editors who emulate Aagt...'s good example by correcting the list accordingly has the long-run effect of discouraging not only such authors, but (probably more significantly) discouraging fans who think themselves to be the heralds of a renaisance in literature, specifically by reverting, and thereby helping to demonstrate how futile evidence-free assertions of significance. --Jerzy•t10:57, 24 June 2018 (UTC)Reply
Corrected alpha order (IMPORTANT: correction needed in *at least* one entry; see talk page)

The reason for this section title is
I am the editor who minutes ago (see the sig & date/time "stamp" at the end of this talk-contrib) edited the So-Sp section of the article, using this talk section's title as my edit summary, and ...
... i found that a careless or easily confused editor(s) has (or have) demonstrated that alphabetization is a nontrival skill that can fail badly without concentration and a (perhaps old-fashioned) well-drilled command of one's alphabet's sequence.
