I remember in the book she is introduced in Cheery decided to fem her name up by changing the spelling to Cheri, Yet this doesn't seem to persist through the books, should a note be made on her page regarding this?
What's on your mind?

I am looking for your help. I need to reference a quote I am using from Unseen Academicals
“She reached down and picked a crab out of a bucket. As it came up it turned out that three more were hanging on to it. "A crab necklace?" giggled Juliet. "Oh, that's crabs for you," said Verity, disentangling the ones who had hitched a ride. "Thick as planks, the lot of them. That's why you can keep them in a bucket without a lid. Any that tries to get out gets pulled back. Yes, as thick as planks.”
Which page is it on? Thanks heaps!
I was wondering if characters should be updated or added since the book is part of discworld and the movie is out on digital, or is their like a rule to the wiki?
Absolutely loved it. The third Discworld book I’ve read after the Colour of magic and the amazing Maurice. Easily my favourite one so far. I’m planning to read a Death book next.
1. Is this wiki... dead? I hate to think about this question (discworld being my favourite books and Terry Pratchett being my favourite author along with Neil Gaiman) but this wiki is pretty inactive as wikis go...
2. I just saw the page "Aziraphale" on here. Is that supposed to be on here? I understand that Good Omens is also one of Pratchett's books but this is Discworld wiki.
Can anybody shed any light on this figurine, we have maybe had this for 20 yrs or so. We do not know the maker and it is stuck to a wooden plinth so you can't access underneath. Looked at all of the back catalogue from Clarecraft and it doesn't appear there. Is very well made though.
In the 'The Colour of Magic' there is a character 'Erig Stronginthearm'
Re page 59
'Yes, that one over there is Erig Stronginthearm, over there is Black Zenell----'
'Is Hrun the Barbarian her?' ......
On Discworld Wiki the name is incorrectly shown as 'Eric Stronginthearm'
Adora is easily the best character and Anoia is best goddess. Proove me wrong
So many of the places and people of Discworld are riffs on places and people in our world. Examples
Medici---> Vetinari
Edinburgh ---> Pseudopolis (Edinburgh being the "false" London)
But I can't figure out any connection or etymology for Leshp. If you know, please enlighten me!

Anywhere in the series, is a Hogswatch card described? I'm planning to make some for my friends and family, and would love to know if there are any that are described in the books. (I know it's about 2 months till Hogswatch, but I like planning ahead) Also, when it comes to the Discworld fanbase, do people celebrate Hogswatch on Christmas day or as the wiki says "The day before new years". I'm still kinda new to the Discworld fanbase.

If you don't want to read about everything obviously wrong with this trailer I wouldn't read this, this is basically a post for me to scream into the abyss with.
Also, I know The Watch isn't a proper adaptaion anymore and Terry Pratchetts daughter said it was only based on her fathers characters, BUT WHY TAKE CHARACTERS IF YOU'RE GOING TO COMPLETLEY CHANGE ALMOST EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM. Also, why is Vimes, the man who hates plumes, wearing more eyeliner than a goth on a bad day? I really hope the dog we see in the trailer isn't Gaspode, BECAUSE HIS COAT IS CLEANER THAN MY MUMS KITCHEN. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I swear I saw a few frames in the trailer where Vimes, SAMUEL VIMES was playing an electric guitar on a stage...... Also, WHY ISN'T CHEERY A DWARF. I don't think I saw any dwarves in the trailer so they might not have them in this "Discworld", but one of the best things about Cheery was she was a dwarf that went and wore what she wanted to and it was brilliant! (Also her relasionship with Angua is one of the best things in feet of clay) Also Sybil uses a dragon as a weapon....... I can only imagine the real Sybil doing this in a very, very, very, VERY, sticky situation.. Just.... AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.
Hi all, Death in Discworld has a lot of great life lessons to share... There is a passage in a Discworld book where Death visits a man who built an impenetrable bunker to keep him safe from death, but forgot to put in the airholes...
Can you help me to find the right book (I'm thinking Pyramids, but not sure) and the passage? I've been thinking about this passage a lot as i have a friend who is trying to build a corona- proof bunker around himself and alienating all his friends and family in the meantime...
I would like to share this passage with him seeing it is such a striking analogy...
Thanks in advance for any help!

I have just purchased a Mitsubishi L200 Barbarian and I NEED some Cohen stickers, where can I get them from
I am currently beginning the Discworld series. Once I have finished guards guards, does anyone recommend which book I should read next?
I read this is in one of the Disc World books years ago and cannot remember which one. It is from Sam Vimes and he is talking about vampires and how if you need to catch a vampire you need other vampires. Because only vampires knew how to handle other vampires. Any help would be grateful.
The wiki at lspace.org appears to have disappeared. Does anyone know about this?
I cant for for the life of me who succeded Wonse? Put me out of my mysery!
I am pretty new to Discworld. (I've read "the Colour of Magic," and I just started "The Light Fantastic.") I want a good map, to help my mind wrap around the weird geography. On Amazon, there are two options, (listed in the title.) The Mapp is cheaper, but comes with less stuff. The atlas is already more expensive, but since they have to ship it overseas, there's an extra ten bucks for shipping. Is it worth it to get the atlas, or should I go with the map?
