Hi everyone,

There are a lot of major tensing issues in this article that need to be fixed. I'm not entirely sure how to fix major errors like this, so if anyone does, could they fix them or let me know how? Would fixing these errors just be retensing them or is there a special way to do it?

Thanks, LimeInABush (talk) 02:55, July 18, 2018 (UTC)

Hey, retensing the article should be fine. It's not necessarily a major error, just one that requires a read-through. :) --MusicaLƎƎ (talk) 12:58, July 18, 2018 (UTC)

Ah, interesting! I see on the Wikipedia article it suggests the two are linked, but do you know of any sources (e.g. Twitter or interviews) where Pullman says he based the character on that person? NightSpeakers - My Blogs! 13:02, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Good question. It could be a coincidence or a parallel of simple research rather than intention and such things occur (qv Dracula, not intended to actually be Vlad Dracul afaik…) Don’t know of definite evidence but will look into. Eschiss1 (talk) 13:30, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
