Identity[edit]

~~VIAF=240183688 needs merge~~ -P64 2015-05-06 Jenkins (only one template {{authority control}} is permitted; this one is in the article)

No, vice versa.

Is Emily Jenkins of "flea and hippo" the same person? If so then VIAF 60511763 needs merge.

Yes, the same person, but no merge. -P64 2015-05-06

That is "Bea and Haha", board books by this Emily Jenkins and Tomek Bogacki (2006, now in the list of E. Lockhart#Works). VIAF 60511763 is an actress, evidently active in 1984 to whom LC attributes some Bea and Haha books to her ([1] and Browse the LC Online Catalog).

This Emily Jenkins was 17 in 1984 and we say, "In high school she attended summer drama schools at Northwestern University and the Children's Theatre Company in Minneapolis." So they may be one person. But the reported 1984 actress, or maybe author of Creating Theater, is likely to be http://www.emilyjenkins.co.uk Shakespeare Consultant, Theatre Director & Writer.

WorldCat attributes only Creating Theater (visual) to that Emily Jenkins (actress).[2] -P64 17:23

--P64 (talk) 17:10, 17 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

LC catalog records for Bea and Haha need correction.

This article now carries template {{Authority control}} for E. Lockhart, who writes primarily for teenage girls, also for adults. The personal redirect Emily Jenkins carries the other, for her real-name identity as writer for younger children --mainly picture book texts, if i glance correctly. --P64 (talk) 17:38, 6 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in E. Lockhart[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of E. Lockhart's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Writer for adults[edit]

In the lead we say "children's picture books, young-adult novels, and adult fiction". We say nothing about writing for adults in the body of the article, except by allusion to her 1998 PhD dissertation.

Our list of works is limited to books. We list only two for adults, a 1998 collection of essays and a 2002 novel, E. Lockhart#Adult books by Emily Jenkins. Those were her second and fourth books --first and third as solo author-- and only one is fiction. The list of works is generally long enough that readers must suppose it complete. Is it complete for books? Does she write for adults otherwise, such as book reviews (nonfiction) or short stories?
