A bit of trivia[edit]

The Finnish translation isn't literal, as it (directly) translates back to English as: "Wizardry in blood", though it means more like inherent ability more than bloodshed :) Could be added to trivia section if it's ever expanded, but I won't bother with this now. --M.A. 13:47, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It makes more sense than I'd originally thought, considering that wizardry isn't supposed to be hereditary at all. --Kizor 15:04, 11 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I added the Italian translation.

German translation[edit]

"Der Zauberhut" refers to the magic hat itself and not to the sorcerer to whom it belongs. "The magician's hat" would translate to German as "Des Zauberers Hut" or "Der Hut des Zauberers"! I would suggest to swap the round-trip translation with the annotation and delete the annotation completely. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.78.166.229 (talk) 06:18, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Translations in general[edit]

I just reverted the deletion of the translated titles. It's interesting how the title is translated, epecially when it's a word play or a made up word as many of Pratchett's titles.~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aastrup (talk) 14:15, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Reverted, you need an encyclopaedic reason to keep them, see WP:ILIKEIT. Geoff B (talk) 15:21, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Page notability[edit]

Can anyone advise how this page satisfies the notability guidelines? Is it due to Prattchett's individual fame? I am struggling to find enough sources or independent reviews to keep this page's equivalent alive over on Simple Wikipedia but I'm struggling. --JonnyDKeen (talk) 10:10, 23 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
