Talk:Miles Vorkosigan

message: Due to expansion of the series, I feel like Ivan Vorpatril and Mark Vorkosigan should really get their own wikipages.  They are major parts of the story but they are only around as sidebars to Miles.  What do we think?  Dachande 19:49, 31 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Separation

message: Someone should create a section on Duv Galeni, who had fallen into Miles' orbit, and eventually became Miles' ward (Miles: "Contrary to what people believe, Duv is not my personal property!") Despite Miles' protestations, Duv and his career have become very dear to Miles (best evidenced in Memory).
* There is a wikipedia page for Duv Galeni though it needs work to be worth anything. Dachande 17:14, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Both TheFarix and I are quoting the WP:Spoiler as to whether Miles's page deserves a spoiler warning.  I claim that since it is NOT about a story, and NOT labeled "Plot" there should be a spoiler warning since this page reveals a lot of plot about Miles.  Wikipedia is based on concensus and I truly invite discussion on this.  Please let me know what you guys think. Dachande 03:03, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Der Kadett.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: I have removed the statement that Tung has referred to miles as "skinny neurasthenic git," as this reference was to Gregor Vorbarra. Dan ad nauseam (talk) 06:00, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Correction of Misattributed Reference 

message: "Additionally, the position of Imperial Auditor seems to attach a Lord at the beginning of the title. Although one is a professional title, Lord Auditor and the other is by primogeniture, it is unknown how to distinguish between an Auditor and one who is also a Lord as a result of being the heir to a District."
:This is incorrect. Miles receives the title of Lord upon the death of his grandfather Piotr. I cannot remember which book, otherwise I would fix it myself.71.197.253.186 (talk) 20:47, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Not entirely accurate.  Every Auditor in the series is refered to as "Lord Auditor" regardless of whether or not they stand to inherit a district.  Lord Auditor Vorthys is not the heir to Count Vorthys (as best we can tell) and he is ALWAYS referred to as Lord Auditor Vorthys.  I agree Miles is Lord Vorkosigan, and Lord Auditor Vorkosigan, and he'd never be Auditor Vorkosigan, but the fact that Vorthys is Lord Auditor Vorthys, not Auditor Vorthys, makes me believe that Auditor comes with its own LORD.  This is probably similiar in idea to why Ivan is Lord Vorpatril, despire him most definitely NOT being heir to Count Falco.  Dachande (talk) 18:46, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Miles acquires a stepson when he marries Ekaterin.  As you say, their first two children are "in the bottle" during Diplomatic Immunity; they have one or two more before Cryoburn.  (I read it a week ago, but the number didn't sink in because they're offstage.)  At the end of Cryoburn, Miles and Mark are on their way home when they learn that Aral has died. —Tamfang (talk) 20:53, 27 March 2011 (UTC)
