There is also a Conjurers' Guild article covering at least some of this ground. Perhaps the two could be brought together? I leave it to the Editors to decide...--AgProv 03:02, 20 May 2007 (CEST)

The other seems to be lifted largely from the Companion, and I would support replacing it with this, but I'd like to get some consensus on the spelling (the Companion has "Conjurers'".)...--Old Dickens 04:04, 20 May 2007 (CEST)


Maybe it's just me, but this article seems to be drawing an awful lot out of a single mention of conjurers learning their patter by rote, and being rather unenthusiastic about it. Daibhid C 17:58, 23 August 2011 (CEST)

Indeed it does. Constructive criticism heard and absorbed and article suitably rewritten. Although the general operating priciples and logic of the Discworld do not seem violated by the suggestion....--AgProv 18:56, 24 August 2011 (CEST)

Prejudices

I've always enjoyed good conjuring, myself: Doug Henning, Harry Anderson, even local acts who could handle cards and coins and make you say "What?". I've even seen some really funny clowning (and demarcation is difficult; who's a conjuror and who's a joculator?). --Old Dickens (talk) 05:14, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
