H.G. Wells did not coin the term 'science fiction', despite the first paragraph of this topic. The term was coined by Hugo Gernsback in 1929 or 1930, although the O.E.D. shows a single use of the term in the middle of the 19th century -- far too early for Wells to have had an effect. Therefore I am removing the attribution. | H.G. Wells did not coin the term 'science fiction', despite the first paragraph of this topic.

Question[[edit source]]
H.G. Wells did not coin the term 'science fiction', despite the first paragraph of this topic. The term was coined by Hugo Gernsback in 1929 or 1930, although the O.E.D. shows a single use of the term in the middle of the 19th century -- far too early for Wells to have had an effect. Therefore I am removing the attribution. Boblipton 01:51, April 13, 2011 (UTC)
