No Infobox?

edit

In the source code for this article, there appears near the top "No infobox, please." I was going to add one, but now I won't. But is there any particular reason why I shouldn't? Hérisson Ford (talk) 07:05, 14 April 2022 (UTC)Hérisson Ford‬Reply

Unencyclopedic-content, original research: In “The Bonfire of the Vanities”, a #1-bestselling novel by Tom Wolfe, a half-page of dialog revolving around a minor character’s estranged 10-year-old son’s paperback preference appears on page 409 (1st Ed. 1987) where the title is given as “[The] Woman in the Dunes” and the author, as “Kobo Abé” [recte: Kōbō Abe]. I presume that Tom Wolfe chose “The Woman in the Dunes” to reflect the son’s acceptance of and resignation to having a fat, furious father, who also happens to be an assistant district attorney from the New York Supreme Court Bureau, drag him around on his visitation day, on police business, before ultimately going to see a game at Yankee Stadium.

The diacritic mark is presumably so people don't pronounce it as in "Abe Lincoln"... AnonMoos (talk) 01:34, 15 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
