Long or short work? edit

  1. There's a question abt whether prose use of the play's two titles belongs in quotes (bcz of being a short work) or italics (bcz of being a long work). 9 scenes is plenty, but if it's not divided into acts, it could be argued it's a one-act play, hence a short work, hence quotes.
  2. I've never noticed (and therefore probably never seen -- i'm that way) the lead sent -- oh, never mind, a quick try succeeded in finding WP:Lead#Proper_names_and_titles, so it turns out that bidding the offending editor to do the legwork to show they were right to do something they didn't bother to mention in the summary would be gratuitously rude.

   Instead, i'm extending something analogous to AGF, namely assuming the best about how ignorant the other editor was: assuming they were ignorant of the quotes rule, and know it isn't a long work as i had assumed:    Converting to quotes, since i'm not sure whether it's quotes or bolding that is called for. Better informed editors please edit accordingly.
