Think is important to note that it was written in 1943. Source could be JOURNAL ARTICLE Revolution on Animal Farm: Orwell's Neglected Commentary V. C. Letemendia Journal of Modern Literature Vol. 18, No. 1 (Winter, 1992), pp. 127-137 (11 pages) at https://www.jstor.org/stable/3831551 where at P. 132 quoting Orwell author reports ... he did not mean pigs and men to appear reconciled completely at the end of the book. On the contrary "I meant it to end on a loud note of discord, for I wrote it immediately after the Teheran Conference [parodied by the final scene in Animal Farm] .." CEJL, III, pp. 459-59

Link for Preface

Here is a link for the preface. Can someone add it to main article, so that people know where the quote is coming from. https://www.orwellfoundation.com/the-orwell-foundation/orwell/essays-and-other-works/the-freedom-of-the-press/

Stage adaptations of Animal Farm -- request for addition

I wish to note that the list of stage adaptations of "Animal Farm" in this article is incomplete. The first version, adapted by Nelson S. Bond and published by Samuel French, Inc. in 1964 (still in print) is still widely performed (example one) (example two) (example three)

"Classic"

"George Orwell's own Nineteen Eighty-Four is a classic dystopian novel about totalitarianism."

Is it ok to call something a "classic" as a factual statement in an encyclopedia? Or is it a subjective thing even in a case like "1984"? Isn't it against NPOV? I'm asking out of curiosity. Dornwald (talk) 00:18, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

That seems a bit POV and also unneeded; I've gone ahead and removed it. DonIago (talk) 02:03, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Qué tan fuerte es steve Minecraft? Aplicaremos matemáticas, pero para simplificarlo todo haremos comparaciones con superhéroes y objetos del mundo real. En Minecraft tienes 36 espacios para sostener objetos, y cada espacio te permite sostener un máximo de 64 diferentes tipos de objetos. El más pesado, basándonos en el mundo real, es un bloque de oro cuyas medidas son un metro cúbico. En la vida real, este pesaría 19,300 kilogramos. Cada espacio puede sostener 64 de estos cubos y como tienes 36 espacios en total, es 44,467,000 kilogramos en total.No termina aún, porque recuerda que al mismo tiempo puedes llevar armadura. 9 lingotes de oro hacen un bloque de oro, así que podemos asumir que un lingote pesa una novena porción de un bloque de oro, que serían unos 2,144 kilogramos. Un traje de armadura completo requiere 24 lingotes de oro para construirse, que en total es 51,466.67 kilogramos. El total es 44,519,000 kilogramos, que básicamente es lo que pesa la Torre Eiffel. Perdón, 6 Torres Eiffel en su bolsa, y eso que ni siquiera contamos el hecho de que steve puede saltar mientras sostiene todo esto, o el hecho de que la gravedad en Minecraft es tres veces más fuerte que la gravedad en la Tierra. Pero si agregamos estos factores, steve podría sostener 355.8 millones de kilogramos en su bolsillo, o mejor dicho, casi 49 Torres Eiffel. ¿Y quién chamucos es Superman? Ya que según esto, Steve es 3,559 veces más fuerte que Superman.
