Untitled[edit]

Gandalf the White? A literary influence? This must be a joke, and is not documented in [3]176.21.24.84 (talk) 06:49, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What's with the whacking great bit copyright sign? What is being taken that shouldn't? The timeline? Lol. Just a bit unsure that's all! Cls14 18:11, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah-a. I see, someone stole the timeline from a website. Well time line has gone so I am taking away the big sign too! Cls14 18:12, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, this edit inserted copyrighted content. --Alvestrand 16:10, 2 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

a list of facts might well be fair use. Pohick2 (talk) 19:03, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Earlier play[edit]

I remember seeing a play by Kureishi well before My Beautiful Launderette. I think it was at the Royal Court and the play was reviewed in City Limits. Could that be covered? Thanks. Itsmejudith (talk) 22:30, 25 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It was Borderline. Itsmejudith (talk) 22:35, 25 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Author's Homepage?[edit]

hanifkureishi.co.uk looks like it's been hijacked. Not at all what I expected. Alain4now (talk) 15:58, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
