[edit] The Great Wars

Terrybrooks.net is calling this "Pre-Shannara" series "The Great Wars". I propose that we change the name of this article to "The Great Wars Series" with a subheading directing to the article "The Great Wars" about the actual war itself in the Shannara universe. Sraan 23:10, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. Patstuart 00:02, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Don't know if people know this, but "The Great Wars" was a series title made up by a fan on the TB forums and isn't official. It probably will be later, since a lot of places seem to be using it now, but yeah, for the moment the word "unofficial" should be there. - Einmonim 22:46, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

I think we're both aware of that; at least I get the impression that Sraan iss also a member of the forum. Also remember Word/Void was originally not a title either, but it stuck; that's why I typed in "agreed" above. Anyway, the change that you made is approperiate, Einmonim. --Patstuart 00:22, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

The official Website uses "The Great Wars" all over it to categorize the books, even on the front page. [1] [2]. Seems official to me. Maybe it "stuck" already? Sraan 23:34, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Removal of section

I've removed the section titled Hints and rumors about the third novel from the article. It was unsourced, and was thus nothing more than speculation or, as it stated, rumors. It might be worth including again if someone finds a good source with more substantiative information. Pyrospirit (talk ยท contribs) 20:52, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
