Page moved to The Piano Teacher (novel). Vegaswikian (talk) 23:56, 1 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Die KlavierspielerinThe Piano Teacher — Per WP:EN, the novel should be referred to by its English title, and not the original German. The German title's article was originally a redirect, but in 2010 was created as a separate article, to differentiate itself from the film's article. Because the novel obviously came before the film adaptation, and was written by a Nobel Prize-winning author, per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC it should be the main article, with the disambiguation given to the film article.

The result of the move request was: page moved speedily as previous consensus (with correct NCB title) -- JHunterJ (talk) 16:56, 26 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]


The Piano TeacherThe Piano Teacher (novel) – The page was moved from the current name without any discussion, and against the current consensus. The Piano Teacher should become a disambig page (look at the incoming links to this page that aren't about the novel), and this should be moved to the disambig'd title, restoring the status quo.

Sounds good to me - thanks for pointing out there's another novel with this title. Lugnuts (talk) 16:42, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
On second thought, it should be "The Piano Teacher (Jelinek novel)", per WP:NCB#Standard disambiguation. Gabbe (talk) 22:25, 25 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

removing tag

[edit]

After the addition of three critical sources, I feel like it's time for tag to come down. If it puts a bee in anyone's bonnet, please feel free to respond here. Icarus of old (talk) 16:58, 8 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]


summary

[edit]

The summary focuses on some details while not mentioning certain plot stops at all. I have no idea how to improve it- the novel being, as it is, driven by language and its own structure rather than plot- but as it is, it reads as inaccurate and somewhat confusing. ~~LG 24.05.2021
