Isn't it Three Pages? I'm not sure, but that's how it's referred to in "Sir Thomas More and Asylum Seekers" by E.A.J. Honigmann in Shakespeare Survey 57. -- AlanH 02:17, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
Roderick Spode is generally taken to be based on Oswold Moseley. Why would Wodehouse have to go to the most obscure of Elizabethans plays to find the model for a dictator when WW2 was so near at hand. I have deleted the reference. -- John Price ( talk) 21:15, 11 April 2008 (UTC)
My God, what a crock of shit! What idiot wrote this drivel? The idea that "Hand D" is Shakespeare's is so ridiculous that it hardly deserves refutation. We have NO handwriting samples to compare. The alleged "signatures" of Shakespeare have been conclusively proven to have been written by law clerks; they don't even resemble each other. God help us if Wikipedia allows crap like this. 98.215.210.156 ( talk) 00:24, 3 August 2011 (UTC)daver852
Should this article be written with the same format as other play pages? I.e. characters, plot, sources, date, text, etc.? Or since it's a manuscript should it be treated differently? Tom Reedy ( talk) 20:05, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
It seems to have been accepted by Oxford Shakespeare, Arden Shakespeare and the Royal Shakespeare Company. I would think that may lend it an air of legitimacy. 66.183.104.162 ( talk) 14:22, 9 July 2012 (UTC) Agreed! 2604:2000:F64D:FC00:2066:D744:3BCF:5327 ( talk) 21:00, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
Should this source be considered reliable enough for citation in the article?:
The stylometric study concluded (page 14) that it is, "...doubtful, though not impossible,that Shakespeare could have written Hand D-plus Verse, and especially doubtful that he could have written it in 1593, as some have supposed." This seems to present a view different from that of Scott McMillin, who is cited in the article. Thanks for opinions. Arnold Rothstein1921 ( talk) 21:29, 27 November 2012 (UTC)
Is there more information about which author(s) wrote what parts of what the scribe known as Hand C copied? 2604:2000:F64D:FC00:2066:D744:3BCF:5327 ( talk) 21:03, 10 November 2019 (UTC)
