This is the only genre category that is defined as devoted to titles rather than to all aspects of the genre. Should it perhaps be renamed Historical Romance?

I agree, it should be renamed Historical Romance. The list would be way too long if it was titles only. Maybe a selected list of bestselling titles could be included. Roaming27 23:34, 10 January 2007 (PST)
I have created an historical genre article (nothing in it yet).
I suggest that this Historical Romance Titles article could either be a list or category and split into two, for titles and authors. Roaming27 00:33, 13 January 2007 (PST)
Either of those sound like good solutions to me. Thanks for thinking about this.

No worries :-) Hopefully others will share their ideas too. Roaming27 12:33, 15 January 2007 (PST)

List/Category??

--Romancewiki 15:07, 15 January 2007 (PST) For what it's worth, I think that categories are more flexible than lists (though I do love lists). Historical or Historical Romance are fine titles, though they will eventually require sub-categories under them to capture the breadth and depth of the genres. I don't know if you're already looked at the various historical categories already in existence (see this page: link title Categories. Just thinking out loud as I catch up with email and other things.

I'm not sure I understand the difference between a wiki list and category, I'm a bit slow here, lol. Yes, I took a peek at the already existing categories a couple of days ago, after I wrote my previous message. I'll now take a closer look and see if my brain sparks up with any ideas *grin* Roaming27 15:48, 15 January 2007 (PST)
