Talk:Mark Antony De Wolfe Howe (writer)

Untitled

I don't think anything in the current version is invalid. I added the "chessplayer-stub" as a joke once, partly out of frustration with how older figures in the literary world get ignored here. M. A. DeWolfe is very much not a joke and deserves an article. Some of his papers can be found here and his works were reviewed by Time Magazine.--T. Anthony 06:48, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

All your edits are now suspect because of your largescale repeated vandalism. You will need to prove thoroughly and rigorously any edits you wish to retain if any of them are questioned. You should have thought this through more carefully before you embarked on a course of vandalism and while you continued it over a period of many weeks.

Merger proposal

I didn't propose this merge, but I support it. If there are not objections (and there really ought not to be, since this is obviously necessary), I'll go ahead with the merger myself. --Aepoutre (talk) 15:04, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

No comments for over 48 hours and, as I said, there really oughtn't be any objections to such a simple and obviously necessary merger. I'm going ahead with it as of this moment. --Aepoutre (talk) 01:35, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

I think this article may have been improperly merged

I'm working on another article, in which the person is related to all the Mark Antony De Wolfe Howes. There are three: a bishop, his son and grandson, both of the latter of whom were writers.

This article seems to conflate the two in a couple of spots, and should be separated. (There is no Wikipedia article on the grandson).

The first Mark Antony de Wolf Howe, a bishop, has his own Wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Antony_De_Wolfe_Howe_(bishop)

He married 3 times and had 18 (!) children, two of whom were also named Mark Antony De Wolfe Howe (one died as a child).

The one who survived to adulthood was Mark Antony DeWolfe Howe, b. 28 Aug 1864, d. 6 Dec 1960 (Mark Antony DeWolfe Howe, b. 28 Aug 1864, d. 6 Dec 1960)

This is the problematic article which seems to conflate the son and grandson.

The second Mark Antony DeWolfe Howe (1864-1960) had a son, also called Mark De Wolfe Howe (1906-1967), who was also a writer.

The elder Howe won the Pulitzer Prize in 1925, which is not mentioned in this article.

The current article should be vetted to make sure all the work attributed was by Howe the father, and not Howe the son.
