Talk:In Death characters

Untitled
Uh, I just filled in the information. Can this PLEASE not meet Wikipedia's profile for speedy deletion? I'll throw up, I just wrote this for an hour. I originally put in only the characters names in order to save that and wrote in the rest just now, not realizing it wasn't enough for an article. I'm working on main characters now, please don't do this >_< -- Kylara21 Kylara21 22:54, 7 August 2006 (UTC)


 * It seems to me that this entry is not a speedy candidate, though I'm not going to prejudge whether it would survive the WP:AFD process. Bucketsofg✐ 23:01, 7 August 2006 (UTC)


 * I refer to this page often and point others in Nora Roberts' blog to here when there are questions this page can answer. Thank you for writing this. Sh33na 20:14, 21 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh33na (talk • contribs)

Missing Characters
If characters are missing, rather than stating it in the synopsis, why not fill in a character entry? (To whoever added in the little notes about some missing characters.) Anyway, I added some of them in, but if there are more missing, feel free to actually write in short descriptions. Dick Berenski and Morris (ME) are still missing; the latter requires a bit of backtracking as Nora Roberts kept forgetting in initial books what his name was (she refers to him as Morse in one novel).

It IS "actually" very difficut to breach Roark's wall. Since "actually" was used later in the paragraph, I rephrased that to "in fact." Sh33na 20:01, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

"actually" under Jamie Lingstrom: It is very difficult, supposedly impossible, to breach the security on their property. It could be said of Jamie's breach that his act was done "shockingly," "amazingly," "stunningly," "incredibly," etc. Sh33na 04:30, 22 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh33na (talk • contribs)

"Actually" and "in fact" are used upwards of 10x in the article. How many qualifications must there be to indicate reality happened? Cannot that someone did something merely stand on its own? Although it would for those not versed in the article content to know just in what manner something happened.Srednuas Lenoroc (talk) 04:39, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

I did not write this article. I was only responding to your initial edit under Jamie Lingstrom because I have read all of the author's books, and Roarke's home is way beyond secure. Nobody has ever gotten onto the property. Jamie managed to do it, which was - pick your own word. Roarke was shocked, amazed, gobsmacked, etc. Sh33na 06:05, 22 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh33na (talk • contribs)

I think it best to refrain from further comment here as there never has been in my comment(s) any thing to the effect about the authorship of the article--something seems to be off-step. Just what has been accessed despite what Roarke seems to have the perception of being secure, a yard or a house, or neither? I would assume as it is policy to do so with what sources people use but just what does the work say? It should not be my imagination that is reflected in the article but the facts in the work. I was not aware that WP is a novel unto itself.Srednuas Lenoroc (talk) 06:33, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

That paragraph reads: It is Roarke's "property." Jamie breached Roarke's "highly secure parameter and into the yard." Jamie "sneaked over the garden wall." His goal was this: "attempts to break into Eve and Roarke's home..." by doing all of these things. Sh33na 06:52, 22 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh33na (talk • contribs)

Should what has been provided be recognized as the work of the author following "reads:" or is everything not in quotes your interpretation? You have the benefit of the work before you; I do not.

Srednuas Lenoroc, I don't play these games with editors who keep changing the subject as in the preceding unsigned paragraph. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh33na (talk • contribs) 07:17, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

And, I do not accuse people of things although I may have a perception that is justifiable to myself. It is unfortunate that the confusions have not been so readily resolved. But at some point if someone can clarify if the following parenthetical statement(s) is lifted from the work or a combination of the author and the WP editor then may any confusion dissipate (It is Roarke's "property." Jamie breached Roarke's "highly secure parameter and into the yard." Jamie "sneaked over the garden wall." His goal was this: "attempts to break into Eve and Roarke's home..." by doing all of these things.) .Srednuas Lenoroc (talk) 09:49, 22 May 2016 (UTC)

The article was written by another editor, and I don't recall anything in this section that is taken directly from any book. I added to the article in my words to try to get one to more completely understand about the security. The author has written over 42 books in this series, and security at their home and property is a big thing throughout. Once again I was trying to explain to you here in Talk whether it was the yard, house, or neither by putting in quotes what was already in the paragraph that I guess you didn't see before. I hope you understand. Sh33na 09:41, 23 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sh33na (talk • contribs)
