Text and/or other creative content from this version of Translation of the Eighteenth century Gothic novel was copied or moved into Gothic fiction with this edit. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

Redirects and versions in other languages

Hello everyone! I know this article has several issues, but I was planning on translating it to Portuguese when I found out that a version already exists. It turns out the problem is that it doesn't appear in the language options of this article, because the interlanguage link is with Gothic literature, which redirects here.

The Portuguese article in question is written in a similar line as this one, including a brief history of the Goths and some Brazilian examples, and excluding some topics like Female Gothic and Russian Gothic. I could try to compare both articles more thoroughly and see if there is a way to improve both with translation (translating a paragraph or a section), but I would love your opinion/help with this first.

Mervyn Peaker, 20th century Gothic literature

I think a discussion (or at least a mention) of Mervyn Peake's Titus Groan and Gormenghast novels should be included in this article. Pcovitz1968 (talk) 16:39, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Interlanguage links

Many of the interlanguage links on this page are currently taken by the redirect Gothic literature (e.g. the German "Schauerliteratur"). I don't know how to fix this. Can anyone help?--Ermenrich (talk) 17:46, 30 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
