Is anyone opposed to cutting the large lists to a separate article? I don't want to remove the work but it's hard to provide a summary weaving through that many items. Greenbound (talk) 05:05, 24 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

One thing that I'd call a list, Greenbound, isn't titled, but is introduced by "Other authors who have used this subject matter include". Do you count it as one of the "large lists"? -- Hoary (talk) 04:15, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the reply, Hoary. Yes, that's a list and then Other examples immediately follows it. But even section 2, History, has a kind of list character to it. I was hoping for a couple of example list articles that might be suitable for formatting purposes. I won't do anything drastic here until the content is preserved elsewhere. In the spirit of WP:V, anything listed should have a source identifying it with the genre. I have done some academic stuff on this, so I don't mind doing the referencing. Greenbound (talk) 05:18, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Well, "Prominent examples" is pretty much a list, even above its second half (which is more obviously a list). A problem here is that the great majority of this article is more or less list-ish. It goes from slightly listy to definitely listy to merely listy. What to do about it? I've no particular opinion right now, and the subject area is one of which I know nothing. -- Hoary (talk) 08:26, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Looking at this article, what strikes me even more than the listishness is the seeming obsession with what happens to be in a single language, English. This oddity isn't limited to this one article. The French article on climate fiction is even titled Englishly, "Climate fiction", and is mostly about stuff in English, with a scrap about French appended as an afterthought. The Italian, "Climate fiction", is similarly disappointing. (I didn't look at the others.) Conceivably, all of this reflects a lack of writing in languages other than English; but (climate fiction ignoramus that I am) I find this hard to believe. -- Hoary (talk) 08:26, 25 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I added a recent book (Bould's Anthropocene Unconscious) to the History section, and explained how it revises Ghosh's influential thesis. I added a reference to the book.

I also added two recent books on Climate Fiction to Further Reading Samhogal (talk) 12:43, 29 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
