Comments: Although I cannot claim to be an expert on the eligibility requirements for the Locus Awards, it seems to me that Martin H. Greenberg probably should not have been eligible for the Best Editor award in 2013, primarily because he died in 2011, and as a result could not have done any editing in 2012. Well, not unless he was able to edit from beyond the grave. Greenberg didn't even have an anthology nominated in the Best Anthology category, so there doesn't appear to be much, if any, holdover work he could have been nominated for. I can only surmise that voters were responding to the long shadow of Greenberg's impressive career and were voting for him out of inertia.
