Good source

This interview could be useful for expanding the article, perhaps by adding a "Background" or "Inspirations" section. I'll see what I can pull out of the interview if I get a chance, or maybe somebody else would like to take a stab at it. Andrea (talk) 03:28, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

You want the whole plot? Read the book. You'll thank me later. Get off your lazy bums and read for once. Don't look this up on the last night before your school project. Lazy, lazy America. You all make me want to puke.

Source for Citation Needed

This YouTube Video is the one where John Greene explains the character Hazel's name. This could be the citation required in the character summary. Also, the quote is slightly off. I do not normally edit wikipedia so I will leave it to someone who knows exactly how to do such things. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.83.221.142 (talk) 20:03, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Compress characters into synopsis?

I'm thinking of having a student of mine work on integrating the information in the character section into the synopsis, since it seems to be recommended. Any objections? --Roseclearfield (talk) 16:14, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

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. LaneErickson (talk) 04:19, 10 April 2013 (UTC)

I am going to fix this. I am a student of Roseclearfield.--EHass (talk) 13:39, 31 May 2013 (UTC)

New page for film adaptation?

Obviously, there isn't enough information yet (the film isn't even confirmed), but does anyone think a new page would be necessary, so as not to have an oversized 'Film Adaptation' section? Many adaptations haven't done this, but most have. What do people think? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cheese453 (talk • contribs) 14:30, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

• See WP:NFF for guidance on when a separate film article would be advisable. Generally this is not until principal photography has begun.--Milowent • 20:33, 4 April 2013 (UTC)
