King Lear

King Lear is clearly a tragedy, is in the Shakespearean tragedy list, is classified as a tragedy on the First Folio page and on its own page. I have not found a single article, Wikipedia or otherwise, that claims that it is a comedy. I have removed it from the comedy list. --AnotherNaturalOne (talk) 09:37, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I think I have found the website that the information for this page was gathered from. Can someone add this: http://www.shakespeareglobeusa.org/Shakespeare-Comedy.htm as a reference? Thank You -Sardaukar Blackfang (talk) 14:25, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the article history and the wayback machine, they got that stuff from us. Darn shame too, since I can't cite Wikipedia for papers. Ian.thomson (talk) 00:17, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Measure for Measure

I find Measure for Measure to be a poor example of a Shakespearean Comedy...it is usually considered to be a "problem play", and critics have difficulty classifying it. A better example might be Twelfth Night, which is indisputably a comedy. Envsgirl (talk) 00:42, 27 March 2010 (UTC)envsgirl.[reply]

If I wrote this play I would of put more humourous jokes in it.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.52.176.60 (talk) 14:25, 11 March 2012‎

The bulleted list

The bulleted list has several plays with asterisks appended to them, but there are no footnotes to explain their meaning. The creator of the asterisks should fix that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mherr (talk • contribs) 00:42, 4 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

The notes were removed by a vandal and have now been restored. --Joshua Issac (talk) 15:13, 5 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Noble Kinsmen

I do not know what the source for calling this a comedy is but having seen the play I can assume you that it is a tragedy. The who point of the play is the intense rivalry between the two men once best friends who fall in love with the same woman and end up fighting to the death over her. Not many laughs in that. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reesmf (talk • contribs) 21:17, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
