Talk:Neil Gaiman/Archive 2

War and Peace?
I can't recall having read such a painfully long and detailed promotional article about an author. I've just done a word count and can confirm that the article about Gaiman is longer than the one about War and Peace, a fact easier to explain by self-/fan-publicity than by literary merit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.175.56.5 (talk • contribs)


 * Agree. This is clearly a self-promotional article of exactly the sort that reduces the value of Wikipedia as an 'encyclopaedia'.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.175.56.65 (talk) 07:21, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
 * You often talk to yourself like this? —David Eppstein (talk) 07:29, 25 December 2019 (UTC)
 * A palpable hit by Eppstein!! And enough fun to make my weary day before noon.
 * This ‘’Casus macht mir lachen’’, as IIRC (after ~6 decades since we were introduced to Goethe’s Meisterwerk) observes... I think I finished the more-read ‘’erster Teil’’, in a bilingual paperback edition. I’ll presume the colleague is blameless, and merely YA sufferer of what I (probably) misremember as “the full flower of blown youth” (perhaps from ‘’Hamlet’’). Thanks to both colleagues, for probably my biggest smile of the morning. Cheerio, as they may still say.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:199:C201:FD70:143B:600F:1F84:C055 (talk) 17:23, 26 November 2020 (UTC)  --2601:199:C201:FD70:143B:600F:1F84:C055 (talk) (ex-User:Jerzy, ex-User:JerzyA 17:40, 26 November 2020 (UTC)

Edit request January 30 2022
Under the Twitter section, please add (at the bottom):

In January 2022, when the board of trustees of McMinn County Schools in Tennessee, in a 10-0 decision, removed the Pulitzer Prize-winning Holocaust graphic novel Maus from its curriculum for 8th grade English classes, overriding a State curriculum decision, Clemmons was critical of the decision. He tweeted: "There's only one kind of people who would vote to ban Maus, whatever they are calling themselves these days."

Please spell Royal National Theatre as the theatre itself spells its own name rather than using the US English version of the word theatre/theatre 2A00:23C4:F70B:E700:B07C:10D9:9C9:890 (talk) 08:21, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
