Novel without Infobox (auto list): many novel articles do not have an infobox - and need one (auto generated list) - may need expansion of article too Our Collaboration Department is continuing with one more title Adam Bede for the current month. Get collaborating on the article and also look at nominating other titles to be considered. The new article Fictional locations now exists - as a companion article to Fictional characters - but it is still a stub and could do with plenty more imput to improve it. Another new article A Taste for Death (P.D. James novel)‎ now exists - but it is also still a stub and could do with plenty more imput to improve it. A new Infobox exists to support the growing number of "Short Story" articles that are tagged as part of the project - take a look at it and comment on it's talk page. I would suggest we use it for "Short Stories and "Novelettes" and leave the main "Book infobox" for "Novels" and "Novellas". New hitlists added to the main worklist.

Er, hang on, since when is Artemis Fowl an 'evil genius'? I've changed it to 'criminal mastermind' for now. Njál 23:04, 17 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] plotline

Mulch Diggums was earlier described as being the Lower Elements 'most dangerous criminal', when in fact he is not.

I edited it to state that he is a petty thief.

[edit] Date

The text doesn't mention when the books where published Pictureuploader 08:40, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New UK Book Covers

The UK book covers for Artemis Fowl have been updated to versions similar to that of "The Lost Colony". The covers of the first four books on wikipedia are now outdated. --Spaztic ming 11:23, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

there should be covers for the us releases on the main page [bkboy] [www.freewebs.com/bklounge2]

[edit] US Release Date for The Lost Colony

Today is the 14th of September and yesterday, I picked up a copy of the book. Yet the article says the 15th of September? Ah well, by the time anyone reads this, it'll be after the 15th anyways.

[edit] butler killing a troll

Since when did he kill a troll? I thought he just mortaly wounded it then sent it away cause holly asked him to?

Yes.Cameronrobson 23:00, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

Which book did he kill a troll I've read 1, 2, and 3 but yet have i heard he kill a troll. The Dwarf_King 13:32, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

the first book, butler is healed with hollys magic and he lays a couple of blows on the troll. Just when hes about to finish it off, holly asked him to spare the trolls death (well she said no).

[edit] Sixth Book: Small Information

I read in a magazine that book six will contain a character named Dr. Kronski, a hypnotherapist. It should be noted that the hotel Artemis stayed in during Opal Deception is called The Kronski Hotel.

Do you remember which magasine that was? If it's true, it would be great to add, but without a source, it's just a rumour. :(

At least Eoin Colfer mentioned it in his post on AFC-forum... --Ninnnu 19:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Character Pages

Do all the separate characters require their own pages? Many of these seem to be stub articles, so should probably be removed.

--ReviewDude 20:15, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I think that is a good idea. Perhaps we should merge them into a main character page?

--Yuanchosaan

[edit] title for the 'good guys'

Shouldn't there be a title for the 'good guys' part of the main characters section, seeing as there is a title for the villains part? - jlao⁰⁴ 07:35, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Abbot or Abott?

The page Abott (Artemis Fowl) should be named Abbot (Artemis Fowl), shouldn't it? I've moved it to Abbot (Artemis Fowl) - jlao⁰⁴ 05:18, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Links to reviews?

I'd appreciate seeing reviews and criticism--or links to criticism--of this series included in the article.

[edit] Minor Characters

Some of the minor characters seem more deserving of their own pages than others. For example, Grub Kelp has a page but Vinyáya and Doodah Day do not? Their articles are easily much longer than Kelp's. CrashCart9 06:02, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

My apologies, Day does have a page, it is simply not linked to in the body of the article (or very complete). My opinion on Vinyáya stands, however. CrashCart9 06:03, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] New Magic

We should make a note of demon magic mentioned in the fifth book —The preceding unsigned comment was added by +1baka (talk • contribs) 18:49, 8 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Movie Page Merged

I merged the movie page into this article because of the lack of information on it. The movie page now redirects to the "Artemis Fowl The Movie" section of this article. Gxray 08:45, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Qwan as a "Major" character?

Qwan doesn't appear until the last quarter of the last book, of which there are five. No way is he a "major" character. I'm not sure Minerva or No1 count either, but I'm definitely moving Qwan to minor. --67.162.34.19 09:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Film not mentioned

Why does the Artemis Fowl Film page redirect here when there is no longer any information on the film? Should we mention that a film is speculated? Lethe naiad 09:19, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
