Turtledove

I was wondering if, for our purposes, we might want to make her Isabella I of England, and the same with Albert of course. Turtle Fan 16:58, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

That would be inconsistent with our recent policy of paying lip service to OTL. TR 17:11, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
Hmm--It would, wouldn't it. Maybe we should use it in the RB section, however. Turtle Fan 17:25, May 13, 2010 (UTC)
That makes sense. TR 17:29, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

Do we need it? It's in the RB author note, so I'm not sure what use there is in repeating it. TR (talk) 04:32, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

Everything on this wiki is in an HT work. I think it's reasonable to keep.JonathanMarkoff (talk) 07:06, August 10, 2016 (UTC)
You've just made the case for never deleting any article, ever. Turtle Fan (talk) 07:09, August 10, 2016 (UTC)
It's especially significant because it precludes any goof submissions regarding Isabella & Albert's early marriage.JonathanMarkoff (talk) 07:26, August 10, 2016 (UTC)
If people read from beginning to end, they probably picked up that point. TR (talk) 13:57, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

Keeping the comment explains the change from OTL and gives insight to Turtledove's writing. I'm for keeping it. ML4E (talk) 19:30, August 10, 2016 (UTC)

While it's needlessly pedantic as written, the fact that it cites the afterword does give it some legitimacy. Turtle Fan (talk) 23:41, August 10, 2016 (UTC)
