Proposal

Rename the "Children's literature" categories to "Children's and young adult literature" categories.

Pros:

It's difficult to draw a clear line between the two genres.
Any attempt to draw such a line will involve a duplicated set of categories, and many many books will appear in both.
Any attempt to draw such a line will result in fruitless POV discussions of appropriateness, author intent, pedagogical use, and definitions of "child" vs "young adult"
It will make the categories clear to everyone in purpose

Cons:

Thoughts?

Abstain from vote. (I don't like the idea of lumping these usually very different and easily distinguishable categories together just because of some overlap at the edges, but I also don't have any better suggestion. I'm just going to sit in the corner and watch.) Tem2 16:47, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Rename it. I think it is a good idea. maybe we should rename the porject as well. Or we could start another YA literature project. KGV 09:19, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
