Untitled

Much of this entry reads like some college kid's book report. And the kid gets an A for spotting the obvious. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.250.21.146 (talk) 22:44, 25 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Chapter Summaries

I have some chapter summaries available for this book would it be a good idea to post them? (the content in the summaries is correct however the garramar may need a little work) 578

I'd say link to them...

link them, post them, whatever... i just need some, now... but no pressure on you, simply stating my current state of desperation... okay, go ahead now...

Please post them! Please soon!

PLEASE post the summaries! i'm studying this book for year 12 and it would be a GREAT help =)

Horrible

This article on Wikipedia is Horrible. It reads like a high school book report,and is way to long. Is it really necessary to list 31 characters and give a biography about them? I think not. I am going to research this book and come back in a few days and re do this whole thing.--74.240.252.98 (talk) 01:56, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Still "researching" after almost a decade, eh?

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:The God of Small Things/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

Classed as a Stub as there is little to this article yet. Have reclassed it of Mid priority having noticed the Booker prize. Could others add to this article particularly adding ==Literary significance & criticism== and other notability information. :: Kevinalewis : ^{(Talk Page)}/_(Desk) 07:57, 29 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Pickles leaking oil

I'm wondering why the paradise pickles would leak oil. I've never observed this in pickles but I assume it is possible. Would be interested in whether anyone has observed this and any ideas of why it might occur. 91.110.5.178 (talk) 00:21, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Article status

What a mess... I've read the book recently and I'll try to do something about it.

Contraction and rephrasing is the first thing, I suppose. Colaheed777 (talk) 11:18, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So, I've shortened the Plot and Characters sections so far and removed 2 tags. But there's 2 more and they need to be deal with sometime, too. Colaheed777 (talk) 12:23, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Explicit WP:OR, I don't think there's any left. But I'm not removing the verification tag just yet, the article is still not tidied up enough. Colaheed777 (talk) 17:09, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
