 * Though it was known that [[Lawrence Miles]] and [[Simon Bucher-Jones]] contributed most to the Book, in that order, it was deliberately kept unclear as to which authors contributed which articles. However, later releases in the [[Faction Paradox (series)|Faction Paradox series]] would provide some clues.
 :* Lawrence Miles himself likely penned the entries for [[Faction Paradox]], the [[Remote]], the [[Great Houses]], the [[Spiral Politic]], [[Grandfather Paradox]], and [[the enemy]], at the absolute minimum. As editor, he rewrote many or all entries. The "Faction Paradox Family" section was credited to him in the book's notes.
-:* The articles concerning the [[City of the Saved]] were most obviously written by [[Philip Purser-Hallard]], who went on to write [[PROSE]]: ''[[Of the City of the Saved... (novel)|Of the City of the Saved...]]'' and edit five anthologies in [[Obverse Books]]' [[The City of the Saved (series)|City of the Saved]] anthology series. Puser-Hallard commented that he had not written the articles on [[Wallachia]], [[Michael Brookhaven]], [[Grigori Rasputin]], or the [[Spiral Politic]]; he did write an entry for one of [[the Homeworld]]'s six [[ruling Houses]], but it was thoroughly overhauled in editing. <ref>http://www.infinitarian.com/botwswww.html</ref>
+:* Simon Bucher-Jones was identified as the creator of [[Robert Scarratt]] in [[PROSE]]: ''[[Weapons Grade Snake Oil (novel)|Weapons Grade Snake Oil]]''; he presumably also penned entries about the [[Celestis]], who he had previously explored in his [[Eighth Doctor]] novel [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Taking of Planet 5 (novel)|The Taking of Planet 5]]'', and [[Entarodora]], who featured in his novel [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Brakespeare Voyage (novel)|The Brakespeare Voyage]]''.

That novel's co-author [[Jonathan Dennis]], who also contributed to ''The Book of the War'', used [[Faction Hollywood]] in his story [[PROSE]]: ''[[Remake/Remodel (short story)|Remake/Remodel]]''.
+:* [[Daniel O'Mahony]] used [[Thessalia]], [[the Imperator]], and [[babel]]s in his novel [[PROSE]]: ''[[Newtons Sleep (novel)|Newtons Sleep]]''.
+:* [[Ian McIntire]] introduced [[Carmen Yeh]] in his unlicensed short story ''Schrodinger's Botanist'' for the charity anthology ''Perfect Timing''.
+:* [[Mags L. Halliday]] used Cousin [[Octavia Sutherland|Octavia]] in [[PROSE]]: ''[[Warring States (novel)|Warring States]]'' and presumably wrote about [[Anastasia Romanov|Anastasia]] and the [[Thirteen-Day Republic]] for ''The Book of the War''.
+:* The articles concerning the [[City of the Saved]] were composed by [[Philip Purser-Hallard]], who went on to write [[PROSE]]: ''[[Of the City of the Saved... (novel)|Of the City of the Saved...]]'' and edit five anthologies in [[Obverse Books]]' [[The City of the Saved (series)|City of the Saved]] anthology series.

 :* [[Kelly Hale]], who herself is part Native American, wrote the entries concerning Cousin [[Belial]] and the Faction's [[Remote]] experiments on the [[Native American]] warrior tribes.
-:* [[Mags L. Halliday]] used Cousin [[Octavia Sutherland|Octavia]] in [[PROSE]]: ''[[Warring States (novel)|Warring States]]'' and presumably wrote about [[Anastasia Romanov|Anastasia]] and the [[Thirteen-Day Republic]] for ''The Book of the War''.
+:* [[Jonathan Dennis]] co-wrote [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Brakespeare Voyage (novel)|The Brakespeare Voyage]]'' with Bucher-Jones and used [[Faction Hollywood]] in his story [[PROSE]]: ''[[Remake/Remodel (short story)|Remake/Remodel]]''.
-:* [[Daniel O'Mahony]] used [[Thessalia]], [[the Imperator]], and [[babel]]s in his novel [[PROSE]]: ''[[Newtons Sleep (novel)|Newtons Sleep]]''.
+:* [[Mark Clapham]] and Bucher-Jones explored the [[Celestis]] in their cowritten [[Eighth Doctor]] novel [[PROSE]]: ''[[The Taking of Planet 5 (novel)|The Taking of Planet 5]]''.
