message: I think that I'm going to add a sub-section where it translates each prophecy and tells what it means. Also, Hermes appeared in the Marks of Secret, so I'm adding him in. SMBTUC 00:41, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I will try the prophecy-translation. I think it used to exist either here or on each of the book pages, so I can just pull it out of the past. Ian01 17:49, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Found them. I will put them in shortly. Ian01 18:01, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added the translations for Prophecies 1-4 from an old revision. They were deleted along with the prophecies as copyvio, then the prophecies were put back without the translations. Unfortunately, the Prophecy of Time wasn't in the article as of the revision I got the translations from, and I haven't read book 5 yet, so I can't write a translation. Each prophecy still needs a summary at the top of its section, I might write them for 1-4. Ian01 18:54, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

message: ".. she kneeled on the ground and placed her crown in front of her. Crossing her wrists, she held her hands, palms down, over the gold circle and said in a loud voice:
'Upon this crown my pledge I give. 
To my last breath, I hold this choice. 
I will your unjust deaths avenge, 
All here who died without a voice.'" 
any thoughts?
I also wonder if the information about bonds could be placed in a better place....

thread_title: Prophecy of Light?!?

message: The following line in the Prophecy of Blood is translated as so:
If yet his heart is swayed by love - Gregor falls in love with Luxa.
Although Gregor does fall in love with Luxa, he doesn't until the fourth book. The actual translation for this line should be:
If yet his heart is swayed by love - Gregor decides he must go back to the Underland because his bond, Ares, has the plague.
In the tunnel, Ripred mentions to Gregor that Ares is one of the three cases of the plague in Regalia. So the love he's feeling is for his bond. --TUCSMB 01:00, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Relationships 

message: I propose that the material from  Gregor and the Code of Claw be moved here, and that page be made into a redirect.  I don't think something in a fiction story is likely to be notable enough for a page of its own.  (It would require third-party sources written about it.)
I deleted some material from that page because presumably it's copyrighted (i.e. a copy of the prophecy).  I think probably some material should also be deleted from this page for the same reason.  (poems etc.) --Coppertwig (talk) 03:28, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed merge 

message: I deleted all but a few lines of each prophecy because presumably they're copyrighted.  See Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission.  I think it's OK to quote a few lines as "fair use".  I presume the "translation"/explanation of the prophecies is probably the work of Wikipedians and therefore OK as far as copyright goes, but I deleted it anyway because it might look odd without the accompanying prophecy.  I wouldn't object if someone wants to restore just the "translation" part without the copy of each line of the prophecy.  I apologize for the disturbance to this page, but following Wikipedia's copyright policies is quite important. --Coppertwig (talk) 13:52, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: While some quoting is certainly valid as fair use, some of these poem quotations were probably longer than they needed to be to illustrate the points being made. Also, since this article is quite long, I think it's best to leave some of these out. Also, translations and interpretations should be backed by a source; for us as Wikipedia editors to analyze the material directly on our own is original research. Please, if you add back the translations/etc, provide some sources. Thanks, ErikHaugen (talk | contribs) 08:14, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Removed Image 

message: I would like to make two suggestions to make the prophecy translations better. I think that the word "translation" would do better as "interpretation", as translation usually means to switch from one language to the next. I would also propose to make these translations standard as some of these have the line in bold and then the meaning, while others have a different format. Hope this is of some help. --15lsoucy (talk) 21:04, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Assessment comment

message: I believe the aticles on the five books should have the same level of coverage for their respective prophecies. This is not currently the case - books 1, 2 and 4 have the full prophecy written out and explained; book 3 has only the refrain, as the rest was removed by  in this edit; and book 5 doesn't have it, since it was removed by  in this edit. עוד מישהו Od Mishehu 04:57, 27 March 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: - I agree. However, the prophecy texts were removed by request of a GA and AfC reviewer, respectively, both on the grounds that these prophecies constitute plot cruft (too much plot info, supported only by primary sources). If you'd like them added back in, I would suggest you speak to these reviewers - their names can be found on the talk pages of the relevant articles. Perhaps our two voices may be enough to inspire a revist of the issue. Hope this helps. -- 2ReinreB2 (talk) 02:37, 28 March 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: As I was tagged: Yes, I recommended that the "prophecy" text be removed from the article on book 3 for copyvio reasons. If we have some decent secondary coverage identifying the wording of the prophecies as worthy of note, a few lines might be appropriate. But including the whole thing in each book article strikes me as pretty clearly excessive.  is well-versed in these issues, and may be able to offer some insight.
