P.S. No, this is not a default welcome message. I don't know where you would get that idea...

Nice work. Kindly remind me who the "Vicky Bliss"-related character is in Camelot Caper: I can't recall whether I've read that one. --Phil | Talk 13:26, Sep 13, 2004 (UTC)


 * Does one properly respond to these things here? I'll give it a shot, and see.


 * Camelot Caper stars a young woman named Jessica Tregarth, whose cousin John is mixed up in a rather complicated ancient artifact scam. I believe the story pre-dates Borrower of the Night, and Peters certainly refers to it in Night Train to Memphis, when we meet John's mother.


 * I see I perpetuated the mispelling of "Vicky" - clearly it's been too long since I read those books! --Salli 22:25, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)
 * The Camelot Caper - 1969. Borrower of the Night - 1973. The connection is initially rather obscure. --[[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 22:36, 13 Sep 2004 (UTC)

Connection between Peabody and Bliss series
Now you've got my curiosity tweaked. I've got most of the former and some of the latter: where should I look? --Phil | Talk 06:54, Sep 15, 2004 (UTC)


 * All you really need is Night Train to Memphis. It's primarily in the scene when John and Vicky are hiding in a cave with a tunnel in the back, near Amarna, and John knows of the cave because of an old family story. (Her also talks about his grandfather or great-grandfather at some point, and I suspect that would be who the story is from, though I haven't done the math to figure out what would be plausible.)  There's a scene in one of the Peabody books with just such a cave near Amarna - Sethos is present (you know, the one where he poses as Vandergelt?), as is that Sir Edward guy (haven't read that particular volume in a couple of years, unfortunately).


 * I believe some of the artifacts being stolen in Night Train ought to be recognizable from the Peabody books, but I can never keep track of that sort of thing.


 * I do know the connection is valid, because the FAQ on the author's site (which I got from the article here, having never thought to look for one!) admits that there is one without revealing what it is.
 * I've been rereading Night Train to Memphis and so far I've found several references:
 * It is definitely the same universe. Vicky says that she feels like "Amelia P. Emerson", a designation that she would not use if she were a fan of the books. More significantly, the tomb of Tetisheri plays a major role and there is actually a description of its discovery by a husband and wife team employing modern methods (and the woman who copied the paintings).
 * The first reference to a family connection is very vague. Vicky is't paying attention when "Jen" (John's mother) refers to something that is "...only a distant connection with Egypt, really."
 * There's another but I forgot to write it down. I'm only about halfway through. [[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 18:38, 11 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Help!
These categories need some work. I don't know what I'm doing here: Category_talk:Dance. --[[User:Aranel|Aranel ("Sarah")]] 20:11, 24 Sep 2004 (UTC)

I'm personaly working more on the Tamuli and the Elenium, but i might do a bit on the Belgariad and accompaniing books too. Nice to meet you! --Quadraxis 02:09, 7 September 2005 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Salli. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Salli~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours, Keegan Peterzell Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation 02:33, 20 March 2015 (UTC)
