| That would be wonderful; if not your student, can someone else do this? "Characters" sections are the hallmarks of weak pages. If a character's traits, etc. are not evident in the summary, they are likely not all that important to the story in the first place. And if they are, ''include them in the summary''. As is, the section is not a synopsis so much as a complete plot explication, so I think I'll change the title of the category to a more honest one. ] (]) 04:19, 10 April 2013 (UTC) | |||

| On December 21, 2011, Barnes & Noble accidentally shipped 1500 copies of The Fault in Our Stars before the release date to people who had pre-ordered the book. Green released a statement saying, "Mistakes happen. The people who made this error were not bad or incompetent people, and they were not acting maliciously. We all make mistakes, and it is not my wish to see Barnes and Noble or any of their employees vilified." Many people who received the book pledged not to read it until its release date, January 10, 2012, or discuss it until the next day, January 11, as per a request of Green's not to spoil it for other readers. Most kept to this promise leaving the experience untarnished for those who got the book on intended release date. | |||
