Could be worth trying to identify the sources that "The Yellow Dwarf" and "The Lord of the Maelstrom" drew on, see how close they are to them, and decide whether they're close enough to be added to the story headers, or even the author pages of the authors of the original sources that were drawn on. --Yodin^T 16:53, 23 May 2023 (UTC)
