			== Arresting the high command on a battlefield ==
			Not an actual annotation, rather just a thing that came to mind that others might find interesting. They're showing Monty Python and the Holy Grail next week at the movie theater with recliners and a full bar / menu with wait service at the seats. I just remembered how that movie ends - with the police arresting Sir Lancelot and King Arthur as they are about to lead a large force into battle. We know that TP referenced Monty Python on other occasions... (Yeah, I don't see this as a deliberate annotation, but it's either a cool coincidence or a sly reference. :-) )[[User:Moishe Rosenbaum\|Moishe Rosenbaum]] ([[User talk:Moishe Rosenbaum\|talk]]) 02:23, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

	Thank you! Excuse my cack-handedness. So copying and pasting another template from lower down the list and over-writing with the code for the desired book doesn't do everything -something else needs to be activated?--[[User:AgProv\|AgProv]] 00:13, 4 December 2008 (UTC)		Thank you!

	First you have to have a page "[[Book:Title/Annotations]]" to write annotations in. Then you can write a shorthand template or copy one like [[Template:SM-APF]] and change the title.--[[User:Old Dickens\|Old Dickens]] 00:53, 4 December 2008 (UTC)		First you have to have a page "Book:Title/Annotations" (plus square brackets at each end) to write annotations in.

	I remembered Santana did a track to a Latin American beat called '''''Jingo'''''. Sadly, a Google has turned up the information that the words are just nonsense syllables in Spanish or Portuguese, but there is an earlier version from West Africa (Nigeria) where the repeated chant ''jin-go-lo-ba'' means "''drums of passion''". Still a bit too tenuous for an annotation, though, unless somebody out there understands Latin-American music and its African origins better than I do...--[[User:AgProv\|AgProv]] 00:31, 9 January 2011 (CET)		I remembered Santana did a track to a Latin American beat called '''''Jingo'''''.
