Coverage edit

The Fiction Pulitzer has been awarded 59 times in 66 years 1948–2013--seven times no award given, never split or shared by two books or by co-authors. Faulkner and Updike won two each, so there are 57 winners. All have biographies but Conrad Richter and Eudora Welty are not in the category. --P64 (talk) 20:16, 19 November 2013 (UTC)Reply

So why not add them?--Obi-Wan Kenobi (talk) 20:25, 19 November 2013 (UTC)Reply
Exhausted after finding and fixing the last other discrepancy (Les Cayne) and not sure what I could finish today. The Novel winners were in good condition (see the link below) and now I am done here too.--although the main article doesn't yet identify Faulkner and Updike as double winners. -P64

All 57 winners have biographies and those are the 57 pages now in the category, which constitutes complete coverage in two senses.

The companion category, for the 1917–1947 Novel Pulitzer, is complete in the same two senses. See Category talk:Pulitzer Prize for the Novel winners.
