WikiProject class rating[edit]

Citizenship[edit]

There are British categories present, but there is no mention in the article of her holding British citizenship. Nietzsche 2 (talk) 22:01, 14 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Married name[edit]

Since she retained her maiden name Prawer as part of her name once married, is it correct to refer to her (after marriage) as 'Jhabvala' or ought it to be 'Prawer Jhabvala'?88.167.22.75 (talk) 10:53, 6 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Age[edit]

She was 85, not 86, her birthdate was May 7 1927 and died April 3, 2013— Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.237.34.211 (talk) 02:06, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bibliography[edit]

I have commenced a tidy-up of the Bibliography section using cite templates and tables for short stories, poems and/or book reviews. Capitalization and punctuation follow standard cataloguing rules in AACR2 and RDA, as much as Wikipedia templates allow it. Feel free to continue.
