I do not have an art focus, so I didn't notice what should have been Michael Whelan's conspicuous absence. Why can't there be another version with similar phrasing but listing all GoHs?

I'm fairly certain that Michael Whelan is missing from the Minicon 50 home page because he was a later addition and the Minicon 50 webmaster just hasn't gotten around to adding him. I'm uncertain why Tom Doherty is missing from the GoH list on the main Minicon page.

If you're asking why I don't have a version listing all GoHs in the poll it's because I'm only using the versions on the Minicon page and the Minicon 50 home page.

More versions! More versions for everyone! Let confusion reign!

I suppose I could have added the version from the Minicon 50 registration form:

Author Guests of Honor: Jane Yolen, Larry Niven, Brandon Sanderson
Musician Guest of Honor: Adam Stemple
Artist Guest of Honor: Michael Whelan
Publisher Guest of Honor: Tom Doherty

At least that version lists all of the GoHs.

And an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.

I do have an art focus. Michael Whelan should be listed in any version we post.

I wonder about the order of listing. Should authors be listed alphabetically by first or last name? in order of seniority? in order of prominence on some market list? Is this presently random?

Author, Musician, Editor, etc. should all be capitalized.
