Bibliography
editI've shortened the bibliography by quite a bit - it was far too unwieldly before. Right now it just has the latest works, but ideally it would only have the 'best' or 'most iconic' works that people should know about. I'm not very familiar with his work, so perhaps this could be a task for someone else to sort out? --vckeating (talk) 13:02, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
- I agree that it was rather large but you probably should have kept all the books. Journal articles are less important than books, and (depending on the journal) far easier to publish. Savidan 22:57, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
- I have trimmed it right down again - Mr Lebow appears to be editing the page as well under at least three user names Brookie :) - he's in the building somewhere! (Whisper...) 10:43, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
The joke chapter has a massive undue weight problem. The size of the section completely dominates the whole article. This is wholly inappropriate for an article about a living person. Barring good arguments for the opposite, I will trim it down to the bare minimum. Wefa (talk) 22:23, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
- I trimmed it. Wefa (talk) 15:57, 11 August 2018 (UTC)
- Hi @Wefa: I added back some information about the International Studies Association since I think it is relevant and notable that Lebow went against the request of the ISA. If you think this is too much, or if you have some ways to improve it, please change things :) Hickland (talk) 04:02, 31 January 2019 (UTC)
