Talk:The Dream of the Rood

message: Almost all the pages related to the Ruthwell cross seem to the suggest the same thing regarding Kemble's interpretation not being adequate, etc. Where is the source? Almost every source other than wikipedia on the internet and fairly recent books on Runes as well as the Norton and other anthologies confirm that the ruhwell cross contains excepts from the dor poem. It seems that just one person has edited all these related pages but cited absolutely no sources as to why "this reading is not acceptable today without reservation."--72.85.23.244 02:23, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I have removed a section which attempted to display the Runic inscriptions in a text-format. The text was not displaying correct and appeared as a series of boxes on my computer, leading me to believe that others would have a similar problem displaying the text. Since the runes are shown in an image to the right of where the text was, I don't think anything is lost by removing the text. Rellman 19:51, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah I had the same problem here, it didn't display correctly (lots of "????") -- Stbalbach 00:38, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

message: This sounds like a term paper, even down to the structure of the "works cited" section.  Perhaps those citations can be moved in as links to the actual text... as a starter to fixing up this article?Bearnfæder (talk) 08:37, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Done prelim work, but just a little bit. Still can't find what Hunter refers to (Peter Hunter Blair??), or where Blair and Swanton are in the article. Since the same editor put both (Hunter 2) and "Blair, Hunter," but at different times in an edit-spree over the course of a day (see here), I'm afraid of saying they're the same, as it would presume that a single, focused author with background knowledge did not know the difference between a middle and last name--especially when no other citations were messed up. Still, Blair's citation is woefully inadequate, so it may be that user 149.164.158.17 was just slipshod.--Akhenaten0 (talk) 20:18, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

message: I could be totally ignorant, but does this really fall under the scope of the Norse history WikiProject? --Jp07 (talk) 00:01, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Briefly looked over the article and saw "Yggdrasil" in "see also," so it makes a little more sense (if Yggdrasil is truly related).  Would someone like to shed some light on this? --Jp07 (talk) 00:58, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

text: It looks like OR to me, so I removed it.  I don't know why it should be part of a norse project thought.  Ekwos (talk) 07:20, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Hello, The Margaret Drabble link (was it #17) to her Introduction to the V book features casino information.
I tried the amend link provided on this page but it required a log in and so I'm out of my depth.
Kind Regards,

thread_title:  Drabble Link to site but not target 

message: The poem is generally referred to as The Dream of the Rood, rather than the Dream of the Rood, and 'the' is included in the title throughout the article, so I don't know why the title of the page doesn't include 'the'. I also don't know how to change it.
