message: (What exactly are the relations of Snail on the Slope and the Noon Universe? Personaly, I don't see any. One of the variants of this story (with different set of characters) called Bespokojstvo shares some characters with the Noon Universe.) (note by User:Misha Stepanov)
*I never actually read the "Snails on the Slope". The list came from the writer's official website (I think) --Strannik 04:21, 5 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: * Yes, in "chronicles of the XXII century" there are some events from "Zhuk v murvejnike", although not all of them, but some prehistory. There is no a word about Lev Abalkin. What bothers You about "Paren' iz preispodnej"? Note that "Obitaemyj ostrov" also is not covered by "chronicles" (and "Popytka k begstvu", and "Bespokojstvo", but here one can argue, that the events are minor, also didn't found anything about "Dalyokaya raduga"). About the relevance of "History of the Noon Universe" naming, I would certainly prefer the name that is at least technically correct. If someone doesn't understand what is the relation between XXII century and the Noon Universe, it means only that the person didn't read the article (so, doesn't care). Also, I think that the external link should look correct, since it is not required that the link would be about the Noon Universe in general, but of course should have some relation to it.

**I have no problem with Paren' iz preispodnej. You were the one who brought it up. I never read "Dalyokaya raduga". so I have no idea if the "Chronicles" refer to it or not. I'll take your world. As for the name of the link, all I care about is that the name somehow reflects that it contains history about some events of Noon Universe. --Strannik 23:08, 6 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: * My bad, didn't notice "next page" button on http://www.rusf.ru/abs/english/e-22-0.htm page. Thus it covers "Obitaemyj ostrov", and "Zhuk v muravejnike", and "Dalyokaya raduga", and "Popytka v begstvu", and "Volny gasyat veter". The text of external link that contains "history of the Noon Universe" is OK with me now. Misha Stepanov 03:25, 2005 Apr 7 (UTC)

message: Would it be a copyright violation if I added the brief chronology of XXII century to the article? I am not quite sure whether it has been ever published in English... --Koveras 15:43, 21 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: * No-no, I mean the other one.The link is to the "XXII Century: Expirience of Chronology" by Michael Shavshin. I mean the one in the beginning of every volume of "Wolrds of Strugatsky Brothers" called "XXII Century: Brief Chronology". It was published in Russian, but never in English (AFAIK). --Koveras 11:25, 23 May 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: A question...

message: Hello, everybody. :) I just wanted to say that we need to coordinate our actions... What will be the "canonical" translation of "Волны гасят ветер": "Waves Put Out Wind" or "The Time Wanderers"? I mean, what is the article's name going to be? --Koveras 18:04, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I just started it as The Time Wanderers, because that's the title that it's published under in English. I know it's not even a translation of the russian title, and I'm not sure at all what "Time Wanderers" really refers to. Perhaps you russians (I'm not) could write something about that in the article. I'll put a redirect on Waves Put Out Wind. By the way, in my English version of the book, the sentence reads "The Waves Extinguish the Wind", which I think sounds a bit better. --Staecker 19:48, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: A new english translation went on sale today under the title The Waves Extinguish the Wind.  It even contains an afterword by Boris Strugatsky that specifically talks about coming to that title.  Since this new translation is the only one currently in print, and since the earlier English translation's title does not reflect authorial intentions, I think it would make sense to move the English wiki page into this title.

message: Should the Luden be listed as a race? IMHO they should. --Staecker 19:52, 23 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Are mutants of Saraksh listed as an extra race? :) I'd say we consider them a sub-group of Earth's humans. :) --Koveras 08:43, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  The section may easily be renamed into "Races and ethnoses"; also, it would be good to have this list supplied with summaries. mikka (t) 15:59, 24 Jun 2005 (UTC)

message: Considering how ugly the two templates look together in the Beetle in an Anthill article, I'd say we create a new nav-template, one that will contain not only the novels but also planets, personalities and so on (similary to ,  and ). Since such templates are usually placed at the bottom of the page, it should deal with the problem of looks. :) If no one objects, I'll go ahead and make it, then. --Koveras 06:53, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Global template

message: Apparently, following articles should be renamed:
* An Attempt to Escape -> Escape Attempt
* Faraway Rainbow -> Far Rainbow
* The Little One -> Space Mowgli (?)
* A Guy from Purgatory -> The Kid from Hell
* Beetle in an Anthill -> Beetle in the Anthill
I can do that myself, but I wanted to let everybody know first. --Koveras 10:40, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, I've finished renaming and I'll replace the wikilinks on Strugatsky's page, this one and in the template. The rest should be gradually converted later. --Koveras 14:02, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

text: We should ask NERV about that. Since he has made an effort to scan the official bibliography and find four correct titles, I assumed he knew what he was doing. As for me, as I said, I've never read any NU novels in English. Let's move this discussion to the article's talk page. --Koveras 15:10, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

message: : "The universe is named after Noon: 22nd Century, the chronologically first novel from the series."
Does that mean internal or external chronology? i.e., does Noon describe the earliest fictional events, or was it the first to be published?  (If both, why the adverb?)  —Tamfang (talk) 09:43, 4 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: "chronological"

message: There seem to be an unreasonable number of sub-articles related to this series, many of which don't seen notable in their own right. I'm hesitant, though, to pursue deletion because I'm sure they have valid content worth merging to the main article or an article for a given text, and having never read any of the books I wouldn't be able to distinguish that content from content that can safely be discarded. Any ideas? – hysteria18 (talk) 16:59, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, merging many of them seems sensible, unless someone has some refs? Stuartyeates (talk) 05:50, 11 August 2013 (UTC)
