- Literature of China is empty. Maybe the best solution is to move them both to literature of and include everything in the nation's history, the if literature of ancient Greece needs to be separated out, it can be. Tuf-Kat
Does 'greek literature' imply 'ancient greek literature'?
In its current state, the Greek literature article seems to imply that information within should be available solely for ancient Greek literature. As such, one has to ask whether or not the term 'Greek literature' implies 'ancient Greek literature', excluding modern Greek literature (however minor, albeit documented [1] [2], this phenomenon may be)?
Thank you for your input,

This article is supposed to give a coherent overview over the periods summarized in the "Greek literature" box at the top, viz. Ancient, Byzantine and Modern. The current list of authors is not helpful, we have list articles for that (
formatting
In my browser the [edit] links for the first three sections all appear under, or rather in the middle of, the text for "Classical" - if I knew how such formatting was managed I would attempt a fix on my own, but I'll leave it up to someone (hopefully much) more qualified. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.244.70.102 (talk) 08:39, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Lost wikilinks

Greek poetry article: Call for discussion
I think Greek Poetry should be a separate article. French Poetry, Spanish Poetry, and English Poetry all have articles, and the Chinese Poetry and Japanese Poetry articles are precedents for including traditions of poetry extending from ancient times to today in the same article. It should hardly need to be argued that Greek poetry as a whole is as important a tradition as any in the world, but I'll present the arguments if anyone doubts it. A Greek Poetry article would mean the the current Greek Poetry heading would have to be non-redirected (or whatever the technical term for it is,) which I don't know how to do.

Well, there's been no discussion of this, but at least there's no objection, so I tend to think I'll go ahead and put up at least a beginning for an article on Greek Poetry. The models will be the articles on
