Talk:Literary element

resolution

the wikilink to resolution is too general. I can not figure which page it should point to though. Does anyone have any idea where this should point? STHayden ^{[ Talk ]} 02:11, 22 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How come repeatition is not accepted as one of the literary elements? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.186.154.86 (talk) 23:29, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Repetition is a literary technique, not a literary element. The easiest way to tell if something belongs on this list or not is to ask whether it is possible to write a literary work without it. If the answer is, "not easily," then it probably belongs on here. Kunaal (talk) 14:53, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The difference between literary elements (plot, characterization, theme, etc.) should be differentiated from literary devices (e.g., irony, imagery, figurative language). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.49.196.34 (talk) 19:26, 9 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this. I'll see if I can make some edits later tonight. This is an important topic, especially for people writing term papers, etc. Ordaku (talk) 01:29, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mostly done (a year later). There's still a few (e.g. anagnorisis, foil, etc.) that are questionable. I'll probably remove them once I've linked to this article aggressively enough and start a BRD cycle. Kunaal (talk) 02:23, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Content removal

Why did you remove the entire list with the literary elements!? Aren't we suppose to add information to the Wiki, not remove it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.40.64.202 (talk) 09:57, 5 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Narrative structure

The narrative structure structure article begins by stating its position as a literary element, but isn't included in the list of literary element terms. By definition narrative structure seems to be a literary element, but I'm not sure what would count as a reliable source to cite its inclusion in the list.

Yes, it is. Look again.—Anita5192 (talk) 04:27, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind. I see now you just added it before I looked.—Anita5192 (talk) 04:29, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Judging by the activity of this talk page I feel as if it would be more helpful to make the change and add a citation required mark Saedes (talk) 04:23, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
