I only see the UK titles mentioned. Is there some reason for this? Minami-chan 14:41, 26 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

K, now only the US titles are there. Is there anyway we can have a list or something, mentioning both UK and US titles? --- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.170.58.107 (talk) 00:54, 23 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

In the movie Mia hates public speaking, Mr. O'Connell is her teacher for this in the book it is Algebra that she hates and Mr. Gianini is her teacher.

What does this mean anyway?? In the books Mia still hates public speaking. Chara Joy Is My Fate 10:11, 5 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Uh, when did Judith and Michael Sleep together??? WHere did that come from?!

If you have read the eighth volume, it will tell you all you need to know.

OMG, I just can't believe I read this. Okay, I was just reading all the page when I saw a spoiler about Mia's relationship with Michael. What the hell was that? I mean, here in Brazil (yeah I'm Brazilian, so I'm very sorry about my awful English! :)) there's no eighth volume yet. I thought there was something about writing spoilers in Wikipedia! Am I wrong? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.58.45.143 (talk) 03:49, August 30, 2007 (UTC)

I know this did happen in the books. I think I remember correctly that it comes out in Princess on the Brink. --Geekyroyalaficionado (talk) 21:54, 3 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Last time in I checked this out, it was much worse. Good work! 202.151.70.93 07:37, 24 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This is now only the Series article. The volumes get their own pages, just like the films. This will provide clarity, at the cost of a bit of untangling. The Plot Summaries belong in their respective volume articles, as do their differences from the films(as needed), and trivia. The Series article carries the common Characters and other general information, but should be lean otherwise.

Work to do and questions to answer

Some Volume-specific Differences and Trivia need to be moved to their respective volume articles. --Lexein 13:44, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did anyone see the throw-away Princess Diaries spoof in MAD? They have The Princess Diaries: Prom Princess in their Scholastic Book Club pardoy. "Mia Thermopolis went from an akward teenager to the princess of Genovia! And now this princess wants to be queen... prom queen, that is! But after a failed attempt at a coup, will she have enough time to find the perfect dress AND execute the coup's conspirators and their families?" VolatileChemical 04:02, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

• Find the issue#/date - good for "references, homages, tributes". I think we need more in the article(s) to support notability besides "best seller"(sheer numbers). --Lexein 05:25, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The list of characters is pretty huge; I'm thinking they should probably be broken out to a separate article on their own. Have just started a general editing pass-through for clarity and conciseness, but please note that I have no actual knowledge of these books other than their general existence, and am simply drawing on the existing material for in-story information :b --Wombat1138 (talk) 17:49, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of characters, where, where, where is Michael? How is he just not there? He is mentioned in other people's bios, but he doesn't get his own. This is ridiculous. 149.169.88.145 (talk) 03:59, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

plan on doing some copy editing. made some changes on march 3rd. rearranged a couple words in the characters section for more clarity. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Carmyd/sandbox1 any suggestions/things you noticed that you want me changing? Carmyd (talk) 16:37, 5 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Is there a reason that Mia, Clarisse, and Phillipe are all listed as Renaldi’s instead of Renaldo’s? In the film, Clarisse’s last name is Renaldi but this is an article about the novels in which the name is always written as Renaldo. PicsByK (Please be nice, I'm a newb!!!)

I'm French and I've never heard the word Poulet being used to refer to a prostitute. Poulette means "chick" (either the animal or a young and pretty girl, not necessarily a prostitute). Poulet means "chicken", or "policeman" (derogatory), or "love letter" (according to fr.wikipedia.org, didn't know that one). I haven't read the book so I don't know if it's Meg Cabot's mistake or the article writer's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.99.115.70 (talk) 12:30, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
