Title
Plot spoiler alerts should probably be included for this and every other book entry (raises the question of if the Bible would need a plot spoiler alert. :-p). [[User:ColinR|ColinR]] 07:46, 13 March 2007 (EDT)

The correct title of the book is "Nineteen Eighty-Four," in words, not "1984" in numerals.
This is how it is presented in the New York Times' review of the book, "An Indignant and Prophetic Novel," Mark Schorer, June 12, 1949, p. BR1.
This is also how it appears in the Library of Congress' online catalog, for both the British Secker and Warburg edition
