Talk:The School of Night

The first section of this article is rather incomplete and misleading. I wanted to edit it (I've not done this before) but when I click the "edit" link for that first section, I come up only with the second section starting "Name". So how does one change this information?

I wanted to include the more likely central names of School of Night members e.g. John Florio, Thomas Heriot, Edward Blount, Matthew Roydon, Fulke Greville etc. (including citations). I would remove Richard Baines and Ingram Frizer as I've seen absolutely no evidence for either. It is all rather misleadingly Marlowe-centric as it stands.

Can anyone enlighten me as to why the first section doesn't come up for editing when I click its edit link? -- scholarpoet Scholarpoet 15:05, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

You've got to click on the "edit this page" tab, which is up at the top. Clicking on the edit link for a section only opens that section. The tab at the top opens the entire article. Hope this helps. -- P L E A T H E R talk 18:02, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

I feel that this page, overall is incredibly poorly referenced and as far as I can tell is largely hearsay. I would appreciate if someone who made the original comments or someone with more time than I have at the moment could possibly correct and or reference the article better. I went through and cleaned up some of the poor spelling, but that's about it. I'm about to leave on vacation and have no time to do this. Anyways, looking forward to a better page.

I removed the section about Da Vinci and Michelangelo because not only does it seem to be the utter tripe of conspiracy theory, but is in no way proven or provable.

"Unruly dæmons"
The novel Shadow of Night, recently added to the article, deals with modern-day witchcraft and time travel; time-travellers find that The School of Night is comprised of "unruly dæmons" (acknowledgements to Amazon for their synopsis). Is this too far off-topic for inclusion here? I'm inclined to follow the policy of "please be bold in deleting" such off-topic material. Views? --Old Moonraker (talk) 07:56, 14 July 2012 (UTC)
 * I've just read this novel and the dæmons of the SofN are featured sufficiently to justify inclusion here; Old Moonraker seems to have been relying only on an Amazon synopsis.--86.181.96.197 (talk) 14:14, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
