List of works by Mary Martha SherwoodMary Martha Sherwood bibliography – This is an author bibliography (works by Mary Martha Sherwood). As such the name change is to bring consistency to author bibliography titles per advice in WikiProject Bibliographies and per WP:PRINCIPALNAMINGCRITERIA policy of which Consistency is one.

  • Oppose the new name does not clearly distinguish between a biblio of stuff about Sherwood and a biblio of stuff by Sherwood. Whatever the current practice, I will note that there is a message at WPBiblio complaining about recent pagemoves, so if the "current practice" was created in the last month, it's not really much of a standing practice. And if the very lacking in distinguishing characteristics is the "practice" of WPBiblio, there's something very wrong with it. 70.24.248.23 (talk) 22:40, 14 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I notice at WT:WikiProject Bibliographies that there is controversy over a mass rename of biblio/list of works articles, so the consistency claimed appears to be a newly created consistency based on a new project's recent guideline. 70.24.248.23 (talk) 06:34, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
    • Please note the that mass renaming alluded to above was done by User:Curb Chain unilaterally, and without any association with the WikiProject Bibliographies. Please read ANI discussions [1] and [2]. Additionally, User:70.24.248.23 has conveinently ignored the fact that Consistency is one of the five WP:PRINCIPALNAMINGCRITERIA contained in our titling policy. Within the Category:Bibliographies by author there are 244 entries. 232 of those entries ~(95%) are entitled Author bibiliography. Our WP:TITLE consistency policy reads: Consistency – Does the proposed title follow the same pattern as those of similar articles? Many of these patterns are documented in the naming guidelines listed in the Specific-topic naming conventions box above, and ideally indicate titles that are in accordance with the principles behind the above questions. The bibliography project merely points out this consistency policy for author bibliographies, it doesn't and hasn't imposed it as a newly created consistency as 70.24.248.23 alludes to above. --Mike Cline (talk) 13:42, 19 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
