Suggestion: entry for Spot, Dairine Callahan's (sentinent?) computer and manual.


Can I make a suggestion? I can't find either Ponch or Carmela on the main listing of pages. Would they have their own pages? Could they also be classed as adjuncts? --Jilumasam 18:22, 27 Mar 2005 (EST)

  • Kit and Ponch's created Universes

-Sunstar 07:00, 6 April 2005 (EDT)


I think it would help if there were entries on timeslides, the fabric of spacetime and other things like that. It would clarify things for people who haven't studied physics yet!--Dsmaer 23:16, 6 Apr 2005 (EDT



The info about the feline wizards need fleshing out too. They are the pages I think are most deserving of images. I can't picture them at all! --Emiwai 16:35, 17 Apr 2005 (EDT)

  • Flash
  • Alaalu
  • Quelt

--Heather 19:26, 24 May 2005 (EDT)



Okay, What about Nita's parents? They do alot, especialy Nita's mom. Also, I believe in the third book it was mentioned that the first mayor of New York was related to Nita and he was a wizard. (Thanks Pops for helping me!) --Nitafan211 14:19, 26 May 2005 (EDT)

---

  • Information on the homeworlds of Roshaun, Sker'et, and Filif from WH.
  • Information on the extra capabilities of the Wizard's Manual. (For example, Nita's Manual has inter-manual communication abilities and spell equation areas. Are there others?)
  • What other races and kinds of humans, both on Earth and outside of Earth, call their Manual.
  • What the gender term is of various "inanimate" objects.
  • How outside technology can be affected by nearby wizardry. (Kit's sulky entertainment system from WH, for example)

--Ada Libris 21:05, 5 Jun 2005 (EDT) ---

  • (Just remembered) Tualha, cat-bard from AWAB
  • Cat hierarchial system (Queen of the Cats, etc.) if applicable.
  • Information on the training universes from A Wizard's Dilemma.

--Ada Libris 14:10, 6 Jun 2005 (EDT)

How about the Glede that Kit found. Other versions of the manual. ---Smrtkid


The Galactic Arm Coordinator who sanctioned the wizardry by Dairine &c in WH. --Peter Murray 17:33, 12 Jun 2005 (EDT)


I would really love to have more info on the Battle of the Trees SYWTBAW and luised and whats the power rating on nita when she first starts, the one in hw is <math>RL +4.5 +/- o.15</math>

but what about in nita's ordeal?

---Spot4.0 20:58, 20 Dec 2005 (EST)spot 4.0


I would LOVE an entry on Chao, the Transcendent Pig! An entry on how wizard's pets become rather strange over time would also be welcome.

  • Second the notion. I couldn't do one here, so I wrote this in Wikipedia. --Emiwai 19:15, 19 Jun 2005 (EDT)

How about a page about Rhiow, and his crew and one about how the the Eye works(the power that Arhu has)

-Rhiow(no not the real one, just a fan)


  • brainburn (just for the record) mentioned in p.27 of DW, Harcourt Edition Done, thanks! See Brainburn.
  • Reconfiguration from HW
  • the Sidhe from AWAB
  • Ith from TBONWM see Ith
  • the Ravens from OHMWS/TVTQ
  • Robert Anson Harmon from UL

that's all for now --Moeen 19:59, 27 Jul 2005 (EDT)

  • Sideling from the Feline Seguance
  • Hyperstrings(it inclues sideling)

Hyperstrings is metioned, but maybe an indepth page?

--Rhi 19:49, 2 Sep 2005 (EDT)


Rhi again:P

Cetaceans

(there is a link to that page, BUT THERE'S NOTHING ON IT!!!!!)

--Rhi 21:46, 7 Sep 2005 (EDT)


The link on the "Apple Without A Bite, the" page to the old vershon of the Apple logo is broken. I hope this is the right place to put this.

--Ratouth 19:00, 9 Sep 2005 (EDT)


I feel like I'm over loading....

McAllister, Darryl Callahan, Dairine(DIDN'T I AREADY SAY THAT!!!!???!?!?!) Manual Software(A STUB!!!) Fred Ed(unless there is aready a page...but I haven't checked yet)

They're all stubs so.............. maybe .....ya......(They're pretty important right?????)

[an edit of an edit] --Rhi 19:54, 9 Sep 2005 (EDT)


Do the characters from Wizards on Call count? I've restricted this list to those introduced in DD's sections:

Plus lots of new characters from WAW, but I suppose it's too early to give a spoiler list of them, even just as names. --Peter Murray 20:51, 20 Sep 2005 (EDT)


Esemeli/Ictanikë?
--Kohaku 14:14, 25 Sep 2005 (EDT)



In SYWTBAW the World Trade Center towers were mentioned as Nita and Kit could see them from their train car as they approached Manhattan. Were the towers destroyed in the Wizardry universe, and if so, why weren't the local Wizards able to prevent it?

SYWTBAW was published in 1983, just thought you should know.

--Rhi 20:31, 20 Oct 2005 (EDT)

The Towers were (probably) destroyed, as Nita mentions. Page 24, WAW --Emiwai 18:49, 29 Jan 2006 (EST)


I think it would be cool if you could add a "copy" of the manual to this site. Just a thought. Youngwizardkit--Youngwizardkit 23:56, 4 Oct 2005 (EDT)

I think there should be more information on Roshaun, his family, and Wellakh. Also, a pronounciation guide would be great.--MTree 15:16, 12 Dec 2005 (EST)Mtree

Almost forgot: we need an entry on Memeki! She's a new character, I know, but she's cool!--MTree 15:21, 12 Dec 2005 (EST)MTree

I would love anything on cat's nine lives; how they go through their lives and how much physical, personality and self similarity travels with them through their lives. --Sh'heih 17:50, 18 Dec 2005 (EST)

i want the battle of the trees to have a actual story or refrence about it --Spot4.0 20:49, 20 Dec 2005 (EST)


Methinks this page should be compiled together, as hard as that may be. That way, it just becomes a list, without the endless...repeats et al.

Here's a topic: Fred. --Talonkarrde 12:21, 8 Jan 2006 (EST)


--- An explanation of the Peridexis Effect would be nice. I think I understand what it was. o_O -- --Chibiferretgod 16:19, 17 Jan 2006 (EST)


I have a couple suggestions from WAW:

  • The Hesper
  • The Pullulus
  • "Callahan's Unfavorable Instigation"
  • Maybe some info about Mochteroofs

And I agree with Chibiferretgod, there should be a page about the Peridexis Effect. --Rycr 22:27, 19 Jan 2006 (EST)


How about a Park Avenue Tower (from the alternate New York) article? --Gecko1


I see the Heinlein-analog hasn't been added yet -- any chance of filling in how he relates to the current timeline? Will Kit and Nita see something in the paper soon and go "oh, so that's what he's been up to"? :-) --SarekOfVulcan 21:40, 13 Mar 2006 (EST)


okay, we really need a page about Nita. I mean, she's like, a main character and she doesn't even have a page. That's just sad. --Xmas 22:45, 21 Mar 2006 (EST)


The otherspace pocket? Or has that been done? I can't find it... --Danielle


I just realised there's nothing about either:

  • The Playroom
  • aschetic continuum (sp?)(or whatever it was called :p)

--A Traveller with Magic 00:12, 27 Apr 2006 (EDT)



  • Information on the Moonbook Project
Are you looking for more than is available in the CATNYP entry? (Also, you might want to consider combining your two lists of suggestions, particularly considering their redundancies.) —Nathan 22:12, 26 May 2006 (EDT)
  • Dictionary/Pronunciation Guide/Glossary of The Speech, Ailurin, and other notable languages
  • Also the stuff listed on my user page.

--Istarian 11:44, 26 May 2006 (EDT)

I've done some research and found that everywhere I look, websites and the published books, the Wizard's Oath isn't complete or exact. I don't find this strange, but I am rather interested as to the parts that are missing. And for those that have taken the incomplete oath and find it doesn't work, that's probably why. If anyone has any clues or leads for me, please contact me. --Aja321 20:10, 22 Jun 2006 (EDT) Aja formally know an Azalin.

Concordance Entry Suggestions ~Istarian

  • An entry(ies) on the things listed on my user page
  • meanings of referenced things in the book
  • What the heck the note in the back of TBONWM is supposed to mean by the Moonbook project

I guess that's it for now

--Istarian 11:46, 26 May 2006 (EDT)

--Roreck the advisor 11:22, 4 Jul 2006 (EDT)


For the reasons detailed here, I have recently become quite interested in:

  • Davidson's Minor Enthalpy
  • McKillip's Stricture

(both from SYWTBAW).

I also suggested a number of topics early on by e-mail, none of which have yet been addressed, or at least not addressed in extenso, so I'll mention them here, to let other people know what topics have been suggested. (My original suggestions of these topics went into considerably more depth than the brief versions I give here.)

  • DD and 'self-intertextuality'—i.e., the various portions of her other works DD has woven into—or at least alluded to in—the YW books (such as Hearnssen, H. W. from the Middle Kingdoms [the "Door into..." books]), particularly given her comment here.
  • Where exactly a wizard's power (in the physical sense) comes from. (While it is stated in canon that it comes from a wizard's personal energy supply, I have argued—in the 'Debts' thread in the SYWTBAW section of the YW.net forums—that the majority of a wizard's power must be provided in another fashion, based upon the moon travel scene in DW and the water boiling vignette in WAW, though I shall not reproduce the calculations here. This topic is dealt with tangentially in various Concordance entries, including Backlash and Brainburn, and the statements there seem to contradict some of those in canon. This issue will probably be dealt with in full in Wizardry, prices of, currently a stub.)
  • What a theoretical wizard's Ordeal is like. (This has been touched upon in Davidson, A. R., and such examples may be the best answer to this sort of question, given the highly individualized nature of the Ordeal.)
  • Isoparthenogenetic rotations (from TWD).

And here's a new suggestion, also from TWD:

  • Diazo-Riemannian timeslides

(while the timeslide entry is still in progress, this particular facet seems obscure enough to warrant a suggestion). —Nathan 00:21, 12 Jul 2006 (EDT)

Also, since the pronunciation of various YW names is a recurring topic of contention, you might consider recording your pronunciations of any whose pronunciation could possibly be in doubt and including them in the pertinent Concordance entries. (Of course, besides the obvious concerns about bandwidth and storage space, this still might do little to discourage the repeated questions in chat and the forums about certain names, most notably Dairine's. However, it would make it very easy to point people to your pronunciations.) —Nathan 16:31, 12 Jul 2006 (EDT)


I would like to know if the dolphin alien in the Star Trek: The Next Generation novel Dark Mirror by Diane Duane is a wizard - since he/she sang part of the opera used in Deep Wizardry and talked about it.--Kaekae 12:05, 13 Jul 2006 (EDT)
