Talk:Donaldism

message: * I don't know of an official English translation of Gisle's book but if such one exists, the quotations should probably follow that instead of my English translation of the Danish translation. Same thing with the names of the periods from the book.
* As hinted in the article I am not aware of anyone having updated Gisle's time table after 1973 but this should probably be envestigated further.
* There are probably more fanzines than those listed (probably even from non-listed countries). They need descriptions, or at least mentioning.
* Some of the fanzines are simply put on a list because I don't know much about them and/or am not able to read them. They should probably have a more thorough description like the others.
* Probably more...

message: Too late... I'm afraid that at Gemstone, we've published a few articles actually translating klodrism to fethrism, so that's now its most-often used English name. I wonder why others objected to translating the name from Norwegian?

replies: text: According to a note in the Swedish translation, (Ankismen, translated by Göran Ribe, 1976 edition, page 49, rough translation into English)
 The authors have strongly opposed evry attempt to replace the word "klodrism" with a Swedish equivalent, 
 claiming that would shake the foundations of what is Donaldist research. 惑乱 分からん 19:45, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

text: I have no idea about the real reason, maybe it's part of the academic humor that was so frequent in early Donaldism. Also, the authors even invented a pseudo-Latin form clodrismus. 惑乱 分からん 19:45, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Klodrism = fethrism 

message: This article seems to be all Original Research and could even be a hoax. Is there any external references in English that can be used as evidence that "Donaldism" actually exists? Liz Read! Talk! 17:30, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I notice I left a number of links in the section above. I didn't check them again, and didn't check the article, but the "Donaldism" fan club does certainly exist and I consider it notable.Amalthea 20:30, 17 October 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: @Liz:There are only a few references in English because most of the original (English) texts are - to say it in a friendly manner - written in a very simple style. The translators, on the other hand, created their own versions, often including sophisticated allusions to their own cultural backgrounds, and gave every character an individual voice. (E.g. the German translation by Erika Fuchs includes alliterations, (mis-)quotes from German classics, allusions to real-live topics etc.) By the way, if you don't accept a source because it has been published in another language, 99% of all knowledge would be lost.--77.47.74.154 (talk) 00:27, 1 August 2016 (UTC)
