I removed ISBN edit

I've not seen any ISBN on any other Wikipedia pages. Why was it here? It could change with new editions, plus people know how to find books, even OOP books; it's not hard. The ISBN is a commercial intrusion into the encyclopedia. Softlavender (talk) 02:39, 10 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Which otter? edit

Eustarine edit

What does "eustarine" mean? It's not in my Pocket Oxford Dictionary or Wiktionary. Is it just a typo for "estuarine" - i.e., to do with an estuary? That's my guess but I'm not confident enought to correct it. EdDavies 19:26, 17 October 2006 (UTC)Reply

"Eustarine" seems to be a somewhat prevalent typo -- Google reveals 196 instances, with this present article very near the top. However, "estuarine" has nearly 4,500,000 instances, of which several hundred are associated with "Ring of Bright Water" or "Gavin Maxwell." So I decided to go for it. --JC 64.38.163.34 09:24, 30 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

Gavin Maxwell uses "eustarine" many times in "Ring of Bright Water" as an adjective describing the behaviour of otters. It's not a typo. P0mbal (talk) 16:33, 12 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Ring of Bright Water - Book and Film edit

I came to this page via a wikilink expecting to find as subject the book "Ring of Bright Water". The book was written first (1960) and the film was an adaptation of the book. Many, including myself, who have read the book will have points of view concerning this adaptation, but this is not the place to express them. Resisting the temptation to compare, I throw to discussion the suggestion that there be two articles: one about the book and another about the film. P0mbal (talk) 16:30, 12 June 2011 (UTC) To simplify the above: seems there is a need for an article about the book. P0mbal (talk) 10:11, 15 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
