We have biographies of all Children's Laureates, 8 thru the current 2013–2015 term of Malorie Blackman. Each is in Category:British Children's Laureate. Each provides a formal reference to the official specific page such as "Quentin Blake: Children's Laureate 1999–2001" for the inaugural Laureate --all using the same nickname [ref name=laureate]. (done 2013-09-28)

That is complete coverage in three senses. The biographies do not generally say anything substantial about the person's term in office. (as I did here today for Blake in the first row of the table)

It's a term I've never heard, and quick google search only shows hits from this article. --Rodarmor (talk) 21:11, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It's the result of a bit of minor vandalism: [1]. Will fix.Tortoise0308 (talk) 09:41, 20 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This article can now be updated, as Lauren Child's successor as Child Laureate has been announced. Coincidentally, she was at school with Lauren Child. Vorbee (talk) 18:28, 9 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
