[edit] Douster-Swivel merge

Agree. Even if the Antiquary article were written up, Douster-Swivel would still not be worth his own article (unless it were on popular cons of the 18th century...) JackyR 23:55, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Also agree. Better home there. GChriss 06:29, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Country of publication

Someone changed the infobox from "Scotland, England" to just "Scotland". But as with many of Scott's novels, The Antiquary was published simultaneously in Edinburgh and London, by different publishers. So the first edition really does have two locations. So I've put this back in the infobox, rephrased to be clearer. JackyR | Talk 16:34, 18 October 2006 (UTC)
