Article spoilt by fictional section "Other"

[edit]

Like so much of Wikipedia, this article is spoilt by including fiction in it, as if the fiction were as important and no different in worth from the fact. I think such fiction, in a factual article, should be at least assigned to a parallel article so that the non-fiction and the fiction/trivia/worthlessstuff are kept seperate. 89.240.58.231 (talk) 19:11, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have to say that I agree with your move. There is an abundance of fictional information on Wikipedia which leads to guidelines such as this one for dealing with it. The information you removed was, although probably appropriate in an article about that book, inappropriate and trivial in this particular article. ThemFromSpace 18:36, 1 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"He may have attended the university at Dublin"

[edit]

But surely there was no university of Dublin in the 14th century? am I missing something? Moonraker2 (talk) 22:28, 26 January 2011 (UTC) Actually there was one. I think John Clyn actually makes some cutting remarks about it, although memory could be playing tricks with me here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 51.37.227.204 (talk) 09:56, 19 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
