Talk:Erik (The Phantom of the Opera)

message: Hi, Erik doesn't have a last name. And it is certainly not Mulheim. Maybe in the shitty book by Forsyth, but not canon Erik.
:I agree - Leroux's Erik doesn't have last name. --Stalik 16:09, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  More musical information 

message: This article is missing citaions and a resource section and it should be added because it is very hard to believe that all the information in the article is not made up if there are no sources to back them up.--Paleface Jack (talk) 16:40, 15 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: No citations or resource section

message: This article is poorly written/developed, and sourced and needs to be rewritten entirely. The article goes into too much detail on the character's history which should only be brief and properly sourced. The article should be rearranged into the following sections/sub-sections:
Appearances (Sub-sections:Literature,Film, and Television)
Concept/creation (Sub-sections: Development, Men Behind the Mask)
Characterization
Popular culture
The appearances section and its sub-sections should only briefly plot out each of the character's appearances, each given proper citations from reliable sources. There is so much work that needs to be done to this article in order to have it meet Wikipiedia's guidelines and standards of a well developed and properly sourced article as it can easily be turned into FA material. Hopefully someone comes along and gives this article the attention it needs.--Paleface Jack 19:26, 21 March 2018 (UTC)

message: The article says that in the novel his father never saw him, but I did not find any indication of that. It seems to suggest that his father, in fact, did see him. Have I missed something? Rocky Role (talk) 16:56, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: In chapter 13 "Apollo's Lyre", when Christine is telling Raoul about what she experienced with Erik, she says that Erik told her "Foolish, unthinking Christine who was so determined to see me when my father never saw me nor wanted to!"
