The Wikipedia article on this author currently (as of 4 September 2008) lists his name as "David '''L.''' Robbins". But no other source so lists this author's name, while several sources, including the {{LOC}} and {{OCLC}} listings, as well as fan and vendor web pages, list his name with no middle initial. There is a {{A|David L. Robbins}}, but his work appears to be of a different sub-genre (most of it is not SF), and no source lists any overlap of titles between the two men. Their birth-dates also differ. it appears probable that the Wikipedia entry is in error on this point. -[[User:DESiegel60|DES]] <sup>[[User talk:DESiegel60|Talk]]</sup> 23:16, 5 September 2008 (UTC) | The Wikipedia article on this author currently (as of 4 September 2008) lists his name as "David '''L.'''
