Reception

The reception page is pretty short, and only really contains one review of Wind in the Willows after it was initially released. Is there a reason why the article doesn't contain a variety of receptions?Chw53 (talk) 17:35, 21 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

"Classsic"

"The Wind in the Willows is a classic children's novel by the British novelist Kenneth Grahame, first published in 1908."

Is it ok to call something a "classic" as a factual statement in an encyclopedia? Isn't it more of a subjective thing rather than saying "it is widely regarded as a classic"? I'm asking out of curiosity. Dornwald (talk) 22:25, 25 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Dornwald - if the sources call it a classic, and they do, then so can we. KJP1 (talk) 10:15, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
