Subtitles are not needed. The information about the author and the title needs to be in the body of the review, even if you include a subtitle.dreamthewilderness wrote: ↑11 Dec 2018, 17:50 With the new guideline of including the title and author's name in reviews, is it required to include the subtitle as well? It would be helpful to include this information in the guidelines.

I think this is a great point to make because others would wonder as well. Considering this information is NOT included in the guidelines as something you must include, that leaves it up to your discretion. Some subtitles are really long, and I can see why reviewers would opt not to include them.dreamthewilderness wrote: ↑11 Dec 2018, 17:50 With the new guideline of including the title and author's name in reviews, is it required to include the subtitle as well?
