I've read and enjoyed each and every discworld novel, all 34 of them.
Big surprise that he's a Thief FM fan. Hmmm, maybe we can get him to do some writing for our Dark Mod campaign...
Try asking when he next does a book signing :)

Wow. I never realized what dire, horrible, indescribably deficient taste you have.
Eh, learn something new every day I guess.
I actually agree with ZB for once :) I love Terry Pratchett, I'm reading Thud! now, I like the ones about the City Watch quite a bit.

If so it just shows what is wrong with Wikis...
Neutral point of view?

Hardly.

Yeah, more like extreme bias in neutrality's clothing.
But yeah, berating Pratchett's work just goes to show that you really haven't read them.

Technically, mentioning that he is regarded as a fine satirist and has been favorably compared to various authors is quite true. Personal opinion might vary, but those statements are correct. Had the wiki author said straight up that he is brilliant, then you are hitting bias to the degree it needs to be edited.
And yes, the one's dealing with the City Watch are my favorites, followed by Going Postal.

However, it is a statement calculated to show as much of the writer's reverence as possible without giving enough grounds to be edited for bias. It's exactly the kind of line-toeing that Wikipedia biographers do best.

Some argue that wikipedia is full of shit

Citation Needed.
