PLEASE, put the years of these works. I may do so myself at some point, but haven't the time right now.
- Good idea. This page has gotten uneven attention. I translated most of the fine art from the French Wikipedia, where date information was spotty. It's a question of time on my part too. Durova 06:30, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
- Added dates to the literature section. Expanded the film section. Converted some sections to table format. Durova 01:18, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
Most of the entries in popular music have dates now also. Adding to television. Durova 19:15, 17 March 2006 (UTC) Most of the paintings have dates now. Durova 04:00, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Progress
6 out of 9 sections are now in table format. Still need dates for most of the computer games and anime. Sculpture needs reorganization and translation of a few scattered entries from French. It's probably best to make sculpture a single section and include table notes to indicate whether a piece is equestrian. Durova 07:29, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
This article should be merged with the regular Joan of Arc page. It would make a very nice and concise addition to it.
- Actually it began as part of the main article and split off due to space constraints. Durova 21:23, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] suggested image
I think this looks alot like her. I doubt she would be that thin though.

[edit] Serieal Experiments: Lain
I deleted my addition of Serial Experiments: Lain from the list as even thought the subject is highly reminiscent, I couldn't find any direct reference of Joan of Arc in the anime and I don't feel that this list is intended to just any fictionnal young woman inspired by the voice of God to save the world by fighting alienation. --SidiLemine 12:33, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Shakespeare and Voltaire
Descriptions of these two portrayals have been rewritten twice now, advocating dubious assertions, and blanking the link to the Gutenberg Project text for Henry VI, Part I. This has the appearance of a pattern of vandalism in which both authors' names were also deleted from the main article. If there is some legitimate reason for these changes please state it here, along with a citation for the claim that public opinion forced Shakespeare to change Joan of Arc from a sympathetic figure to a villain in different drafts. If these changes recur without explanation I will report them for formal action as vandalism. Durova 18:50, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Ash by Mary Gentle?
Haven't actually read this huge trilogy yet, but reviews of it suggest that it has some parallel or connection with the history of Joan of Arc. Can someone who has read it confirm if it belongs here or not? --Jim Henry 18:29, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Clone high
Joan of arc is cloned and is a main character in the 2003 MTV series Clone High. Might be worth noting.
[edit] Music
There are two works of music inspired by St Joan which I don't think fit into "opera/oratorio" or "popular music." One is Voices of Light, a choral score to the Dreyer film which is frequently performed both with and without the film accompanying it; the other is the set of choruses from The Lark, written by Leonard Bernstein. I propose changing the title of "opera/oratorio", though to what? Not "classical music" as I hate it when that is used to mean the inverse of "pop music." Thoughts?--Dmz5 19:10, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
- Oh I'm a moron and didn't see Voices of Light already there, but nonetheless I think the title should change. Voices of Light is not an oratorio (this word does actually have a definition and isn't synonymous with "big choral work.") I'm going to change the heading, please let me know if you don't like it.--Dmz5 19:12, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Joan of Arc as Slayer of her generation
As far as I can tell, there is nothing in Buffyverse cannon that suggests she was called as the slayer. I'm removing this until somebody can cite a reference.
[edit] Another song
I don't know what year it came out and I'm not up on Wiki formatting yet so I'll put it here for now. The Doug Anthony All Stars, an Australian comedy/satire group had a rather uncouth (but funny) song called Joan Of Arc. Gemfyre 02:44, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] It is my opinion
that the [[Paul Debois}Paul DeBois]] statue in Reims is an equestrian statue and not a standing one as is listed in the chart of statues - so, I changed it. Be Bold, and I'm sure the Maid of Orleans would agree. Carptrash 19:37, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Her paintings
This should be featured, I haven't seen anything about it more than a few lines of description I have got hold of it. My own photos taken by me.

Can it be used on this section? (Phu2734 06:57, 16 March 2007 (UTC))
- The best place for that would be the sister project Wikimedia Commons. When you upload please note as much relevant information as possible: the location and date when the photograph was taken as well as (if you know it) the artist and date when the images were created.
