"An Old Manuscript"

The link to the English translation is broken.

I've read this piece only as "An Old Manuscript." While it seems evident to me that both are probably valid translations, I'd like this to be noted by someone more skilled in the ways of wikipedia than I. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.33.164.98 (talk • contribs).

If you tell us exactly where you saw it being called "An Old Manuscript" we can include it in the article. You give me the page number and the ISBN number and I'll do the rest. (If you don't have the ISBN number, you can give me the title, the translator, the publisher, and the year published). Thanks, Sofeil 04:56, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hope that helps. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.33.164.98 (talk) 21:42, 6 December 2006 (UTC).[reply]

All done "The Old Manuscript" is actually a more common name (I compared the Google results), so I've renamed the article. Thank you. --Sofeil 22:49, 6 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The Emperor

It's not correct that the emperor appears at the palace window. The narrator says he believes he sees him appear at the window, or at least so it seems to him. Source: original German — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.146.1.212 (talk) 11:27, 25 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
