Hi there Pat! Why add notes to a list of works? I don't get it. All the bibliographic information that you would put in a note belongs in the original citation; that's what a list of works is, a bibliography of works written by the subject of the article. (For this reason, there is no need to put "Claude Shannon" before the title of the work.) See [[:Category:Works Subpages]] for examples. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 12:30, 9 May 2008 (CDT) | Hi there Pat! Why add notes to a list of works? I don't get it.

Hi there Pat! Why add notes to a list of works? I don't get it. All the bibliographic information that you would put in a note belongs in the original citation; that's what a list of works is, a bibliography of works written by the subject of the article. (For this reason, there is no need to put "Claude Shannon" before the title of the work.) See Category:Works Subpages for examples. --Larry Sanger 12:30, 9 May 2008 (CDT)
