This has been mentioned by a media organization:

Caity Weaver (July 29, 2021). "Does 'The Da Vinci Code' Writer Have a Secret?". The New York Times. Despite Mr. Brown's wish for secrecy, "187 Men to Avoid" has been a detail on his Wikipedia page since January 2006. It was added there by Elonka Dunin, a cryptographer and management consultant. Ms. Dunin, who has made tens of thousands of edits to Wikipedia articles, is an acquaintance of Mr. Brown. [...] Ms. Dunin said she stayed in touch with Mr. Brown after their conversation, and later corresponded with him to confirm biographical information while expanding his Wikipedia page.

Number of books adapted into films[edit]

Dear fellow Wikipedians,

In the first paragraph of the article, the closing sentence:

"Four of [his books], Angels & Demons (2000), The Da Vinci Code (2003) and Inferno (2013) have been adapted into films."

There is an error here -- probably "Four" should be replaced by "Three". Could somebody with the rights to edit this please make the change? — Preceding unsigned comment added by CRau080 (talk • contribs) 22:39, 9 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
