@BOZ: Regarding this edit summary, your original 2020 entry referenced The Book of the Stars rather than the Dune Encyclopedia, and could not be readily verified. Thanks.— TAnthonyTalk 20:07, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Non-fiction?

edit

@Piotrus: Regarding this category change, I'm not sure this book qualifies as non-fiction. This isn't actually a real-word type encyclopedia about the Dune franchise, it's basically authorized fan fiction of an encyclopedia that would exist within the fictional universe. Each entry takes a topic/character etc. from the novels and invents detail and backstory that was not previously covered by Herbert in any of his works. It's weird.— TAnthonyTalk 18:48, 29 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

@TAnthony Ah. Hmmmmm. It's weird. Who to ping for more thoughts... I'll give it some thought later, feel free to revert. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 02:32, 30 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
