Listcruft

edit

I reckon that the massive bibliography is totally redundant listcruft and think the article would be much better like this. Khodabandeh14 (talk · contribs) claims it is useful knowledge. Opinions please. — RHaworth (talk · contribs) 21:39, 7 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Using John Julius Norwich as an example, that lists 21 books. I would be for keeping books and articles written by Savory. I think book chapters, encyclopedias, dictionarys and book reviews are superfluous. --Kansas Bear (talk) 23:31, 7 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
That sounds reasonable. --Khodabandeh14 (talk) 01:12, 8 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
The books should be there. The chapters and articles seem to be relevant and useful information, but possibly make the list too long. The book reviews and reference works should be removed, although the reference works could be mentioned in the article. Peter E. James (talk) 22:36, 8 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

Okay I have kept the books, book revies and journal articles. Some lists might be long, but I think useful information overrides aesthetics of the article here. --Khodabandeh14 (talk) 01:54, 9 May 2011 (UTC)Reply
