message: Surely Reynard was a more appropriate title than Reynard cycle?--Michig (talk) 21:19, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Reynard is the main character of the Reynard cycle. The Reynard cycle is a mythos. Reynard is a character. The other main character, Isengrim, has his own artice. Since both the character and the mythos are of extreme literary significance, they deserve individual articles. "Reynard cycle" is a widely used name for the mythos. — The Man in Question (gesprec) · (forðung) 11:27, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why the move? 

message: I have some troubles with these translations:
In dietsche onghemaket bleven
had not been translated in Dutch
In dietsche dus hevet begonnen.
has he written it in Dutch.
I am sorry to tell you that dietsche isnt Dutch. Diets is a mix of german, dutch and english used in Holland around 500 to 1500 years ago
:I don't know where that notion comes from, but it definitely meant "Dutch" at the time. Prinsgezinde (talk) 11:54, 26 February 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dear Wikipedians 

message: This picture, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Reynard-the-fox.jpg, is placed opposing the text of the "Anti-Semitic version" section, even though the image is from a 19th Century version of the Reynard cycle entirely innocent of anti-Semitism.  Since I'm not really up on the policies of picture placement, I will not presume to move it, but simply wait and hope that someone who is sees this message and eventually does something about it.  It's not enormously important, but could give the wrong impression that this picture is from an anti-Semitic version of the tale.
I am a great fan of the cycle, and some might even be able to tell that from my nick, although the connection is slightly obscure.  Muldrake (talk) 00:09, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  The picture opposing the "Anti-semitic version" section 

message: Van den vos Reynaerde, (About Reynard the Fox) was an anti-semitic children's story, written by the Dutch-Belgian Robert van Genechten, and named after the mediaeval Dutch poem.  Arguably the most important historic Flemish/Dietsch/Dutch literary work, yet an obscure nazi version gets more attention. 
That's about the same as writing "The Star-Spangled Banner is a racist song by the band Landser, named after a 19th century American poem."  Ssscienccce (84.197.178.75) (talk) 01:34, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I completely agree, this article is terrible. Unfortunately I know too little about the subject. --Larshei (talk) 18:53, 28 January 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Van den vos Reynaerde 

message: Reynard (French: Roman de Renart; German: Reineke-Zyklus; Dutch: Reinaertcyclus) is the subject of a literary cycle
The French, German and Dutch names given are all names for the cycle, not names for its subject as the way this is worded currently claims. 2.25.134.189 (talk) 00:40, 2 January 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Translations 

message: The page mentioned that the old French "Goupil" was replaced by "Renart" because of the popularity of the Raynard cycle. This is mentioned by all introduction to the Raynard cycle but the pages was making the further assumption that this was because "goupil" was thought to bring bad luck. Although this is an interesting hypothesis, I never saw it mention elsewhere and I believe that, if someone wants to put it back, he needs to provide references for it  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Carmignac62 (talk • contribs) 16:54, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
