I note here that the first edit of this article has been tranfered here from an older (joint) version of The Magic Christian, which was split into --(novel) and --(1969 film). The original page contains now only disambiguation links. The joint past edit history is to be found in the disambiguation page's history. Hoverfish 17:03, 3 October 2006 (UTC) For anyone wishing to review the last version of the article before I started working it into a film version, here is a link: [1] Hoverfish 19:31, 3 October 2006 (UTC) Having never before done any splitting, I was not aware of all the conventions involved. Since the novel preceeds the film, I guess it could have been left in the page of the original article, with no (novel) added. Sorry for this. If anybody more able than me knows how and cares to move it back, please do. I don't know if the edit histories will merge or if the one will delete the other's history, so I won't attempt it.
