You're not alone in that; to say that the Wheel of Time nomination was controversial is something of an understatement, and I share your opinion on that aspect. My understanding was that the rules at the time permitted it (a "serialized work" loophole), but they might be revised to fix that. I don't know if they have been or not; does anyone else in the thread have that knowledge?
