Somebody who knows what they're doing more than I do might wanna put something up on his massive web-presence.

[edit] Armstrong

What does Neil Armstrong have to do with anything in this article? --168.122.229.59 21:25, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Writings about Ellis

This section seems intersting but completely vague and un-encyclopaedic. I'm in no position to improve it, but I'd like to see it devloped with citations, quotes, etc, if a more capable person could see their way to having a go?

e.g. "Much has been written about Ellis' work by other writers" - what has been writen?
"The tone and subject matter of his work has changed since his early stories." - How has it changed?
"Ellis' work has also been the focus of a number of academic articles and dissertations." - Which ones, where?

-- This is not a helpful section.

Probably should be deleted. Poor quality.

[edit] Warren Ellis Holy Slut Army

This deserves a write-up as well.

[edit] Interviews

I clicked on the link to the interview on wotmania.com and it lead to a strange discussion that appears to have nothing to do with Warren Ellis. Wotmania.com is a site devoted to the Wheel of Time fantasy book series which, as far as I know, Warren Ellis has nothing to do with. So I doubt they would be interviewing him anyway. Does anyone know why this is here?

-- Nobody has responded to this question so I went ahead and deleted the interview link. -- jdvelasc 21:35, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Trivia

Adding a bit of very minor trivia... Warren was a friend of Richard Easter, who went on to write for Steve Wright, Chris Tarrant, etc. Funny, how people fall into the same kind of careers QuiteUnusual 21:36, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Links

I think this link was an interesting inclusion and ought not to be removed, but perhaps it can be worked into the article to make it worth including? Scans and details of pre-professional work I didn't add it myself because although I didn't see anything making it something to be avoided, it could maybe fit into copyright infringement or something else I didn't think of.
