Okay so you’re kicking around Wikipedia and you come across this article and think, “Hey this article doesn’t even have a plot summary. I think I’ll recommend that this short story be merged with the short story collection it came from.” Well that is not a good idea for a two very good reasons. First of all, Orson Scott Card published most of his short stories in two or three different anthologies so that an attempt at combining his stories with their collections would result in multiple listings. The second reason is that Card’s biggest collection Maps in a Mirror contains 46 short stories and more than half of them have fairly long articles about them which include plot summaries, connections to other stories, critical reception, publication history, book covers etc. The problem is that if all these stories were merged into Maps in a Mirror it would result in an article that is about three miles long.

So… If you want to help, try doing something constructive with your time like writing a summary for this story. Pmcalduff (talk) 06:56, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Delete or Redirect

[edit]

This article does not give any evidence that the story is notable, in fact, it has very little content at all. I suggest that the article be changed to a redirect pointing to Cardography. Guy who reads a lot (talk) 22:29, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Since no one has suggested a reason that this article is notable, I am changing the article to a redirect to the collection it appears in. Guy who reads a lot (talk) 02:30, 25 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
