autobiographical and biographical[edit]

Just wanted to add a note since I added biographical to the statement. At least in English, memoirs can be both autobiographical and biographical. I have a bookshelf full of memoirs that were not about the author, but others. Merriam Webster also has both biographical and autobiographical listed. Since anything labeled as a memoir in a book is probably going to end up labeled as such on Wikidata, we should probably hedge toward being inclusive. Hazmat2 (talk) 11:12, 17 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
