Material from Robert E. Howard was split to Character of Robert E. Howard on 00:38, 12 March 2011. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted so long as the latter page exists. Please leave this template in place to link the article histories and preserve this attribution. The former page's talk page can be accessed at Talk:Robert E. Howard.

Not a standalone article[edit]

This article should be rejoined to the article it came from. As a standalone article it stands open for speedy deletion. SkyWriter (Tim) (talk) 20:58, 1 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Original article[edit]

This article was originally split from Robert E. Howard on 19:26, 30 December 2009 in this diff. It was merged back in to the article as it may not have been a suitable for a stand alone article at that time. I have been re-split again for several reasons: there have been some changes and some I plan to make in the near future; I have reconsidered the merger in 2009; and the parent article is too large in its current form and needs to be calved off into daughter articles such as this one. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 00:18, 12 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Robert E. Howard is too long anyway, because of the story-by-story publication narrative. --Ben Culture (talk) 10:55, 12 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move[edit]

The request to rename this article to Character of Robert E. Howard has been carried out.

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Moved (non-admin closure) DavidLeighEllis (talk) 01:12, 21 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Robert E. Howard's character → Character of Robert E. Howard – Since this is a fiction author, the current title might be taken to mean "the fictional character created by Robert E. Howard". Reversing the order makes it clear that this is about the character of the subject. bd2412 T 15:20, 13 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I'm not convinced that this article ought to exist on its own, but the particular objection here is a very strong one regardless. As noted on the move request for Albert Einstein's political views, there's also an issue of consistency to take into account. 172.9.22.150 (talk) 00:17, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I have never read anything about this before and don't know anything about Robert E. Howard. The present article Robert E. Howard's character doesn't make me any wiser. It is not written very encyclopedic, it doesn't explain the basics: Who is this Robert E. Howard? Is he an author? Is he a fictional character? Is the article about his personality or about his persona? 83.251.94.184 (talk) 13:54, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Support or, at least, no objection (as the article creator). I have thought something involving the phrase "social views" (or "social and political views", although I don't have much info on his politics in a right/left-wing sense) would have been better and more in line with similar articles, so an alternative could be Social views of Robert E. Howard or similar. - AdamBMorgan (talk) 18:44, 14 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page or in a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

Emotional Sensitivity[edit]

"Howard could be very emotionally sensitive. For example, when his dog Patch died, he wasn't."

. . . Not a real quote from the article, but that's the gist of it.
