Categorization guidelines for American novelists
Per current consensus, this category should not directly include any American novelists. All American novelists should be in one or more by-century categories based on when they wrote novels:
- ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:18th-century American novelists (1701–1800)
- ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:19th-century American novelists (1801–1900)
- ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:20th-century American novelists (1901–2000)
- ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:21st-century American novelists (2001–2100)
Novelists should also be placed into ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:American women novelists or ‹The template Category link is being considered for merging.› Category:American male novelists as appropriate, and into any relevant genre or ethnic categories as well. However, a novelist should never only be in a genre, ethnic, or gender-based category – all novelists should be in the century-categories at a minimum.
