Maybe we could mention

[edit]

Maybe we could mention Ponder stibbon's "lies-to-wizards", Hex's "lies-to-humans" and parents' "lies-to-children" here. I'm not sure about the exact terms and I'm an ocean away from my copy of the book right now so I'll leave it to someone else to check... sorry. Jules LT 18:52, 12 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Is "absurdistic" a word?

[edit]

I haven't found a definition of "absurdistic". Did the author mean "absurdist"?

Making Terry Pratchett a Featured Article

[edit]

This is a call to arms to make the Terry Pratchett article a Featured Article. It will greatly help the cause if all the side articles that link from it are of a reasonable standard. Terry Pratchett has around 40 side articles (ie the ones relating to his work) - I don't think they are all expected to be GA (Good Article) standard for TP to become featured, but certain basic elements will be looked at for sure.

A full list of the sub articles is here on the TP talk page: I'm posting this comment on the talk pages of each article on the list. Editors reading may also like to help with the TP article too?

The main issue, especially with smaller articles, is often a finding reasonable amount of citations, and prose can sometimes be a little POV too. Coverage of the topic is probably less important, but of course it needs to be reasonably good. --Matt Lewis (talk) 15:06, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Quality improvement project - Lie-to-children

[edit]

I've embarked on a Quality improvement project for Lie-to-children, first introduced as a phrase in The Science of Discworld.

If you've got recommendations for additional secondary sources that could be utilized to further improve the quality of the article, please suggest them at Talk:Lie-to-children.

Thank you for your time,
