Quotation
The line is a trifle misleading, since the phrase "... Shall be punished by death" occurs only once in the actual articles. "Shall suffer death" is most common at 14 times; "shall be punished with death" comes next at six times. But perhaps we want to paraphrase so as to cover all 27 times (plus the additional references to death)? I put it to the crew.Czrisher 21:56, 5 June 2007 (BST)
The Article
Ok, fixed the quote, but a further question arises: Is it appropriate for the text of the articles to be the bulk of the article? Perhaps just the summary and a link to one of the many places the text is posted? 19:27, 11 June 2007 (BST)
- Not sure what your asking here. Why bother with an article on the Articles if you aren't going to actually have the Articles. The point is to have a reference source for folks to go to while reading the books. --LadyShelley 20:11, 11 June 2007 (BST)
- When I find useful things on the web I like to copy them. Many's the time a solid-looking link has disappeared overnight; sometimes not even copied by archive.org.BillWhite 22:32, 13 June 2007 (BST)
