Talk:Kit Williams

message: Does this really merit being said:
Today, solving these kinds of puzzles are known as armchair treasure hunts. This name was given to it by Dan James. He founded The Armchair Treasure Hunt Club.
It's hardly a coinage, just putting the word 'armchair' next to 'treasure hunts'. Sounds like a small bit of wikipedia advertising by the Armchair Treasure Hunt Club, whoever they are.
: I agree.
: This is an article about Kit Williams.
: Not about the origin of the term armchair treasure hunt.

thread_title:  The con 

message: A modified version of the book also appeared in Italian, with a treasure buried in Italy.
The book was translated in numerous languages, but an additional prize? In Italy? This needs a source. Bamber Gascoigne, the designated witness to Masquerade, tells nothing of another prize buried in Italy in his book The Quest for the Golden Hare.

replies: text: I agree.  I've never seen any reference to this book in any article.  I'll write to the owner of bunnyears.net to see if he has heard of anything. Canon 21:07, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: My memory was flawed.  The Italian version is described in Chapter 10 of Gascoigne's book.  Nonetheless, this sentence probably belongs on the Masquerade page, which is where I will now move it. Canon 14:18, 9 May 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Masquerade-book.jpg

message: Whoever watches this article, or has made the most recent contributions, needs to be on their toes. Back in 2008 someone added a sentence which, though probably true, was placed with no regard for the article whatsoever, and required immediate removal or re-placement. 
A fact may be a fact, but if it divides two sentnece about an entirely different subject, then it creates nonsense. This is what I removed: 
His brother Dominic Williams is a renowned translator of oriental text, resident in Brighton, UK. 
Look at the history to see why it should not have been permitted to stay where it was for two years.
