I find the claim that the Disc world turtle is the only one ever to be featured in the H-R diagram to be fascinating. But I can't find it in the linked article. Could someone explain to a non-initiate how this is? And perhaps add a note on this point to the article? ww 15:28, 22 Jun 2004 (UTC)

The short answer is: "fiction". (An even shorter answer is: "joke".) The long answer is that Great A'Tuin doesn't really appear on the H-R diagram, any more than, say, Josiah Bartlet is really President of the United States - it's true in the world of the story, but not in real life. --Paul A 04:15, 13 Jul 2004 (UTC)

Is this page really necessary?

There's nothing in it that isn't in the Discworld (world) article, and most of the variant spellings of "Great A'Tuin" still redirect there. Serendipodous 08:00, 20 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
