There's a strange double quote character (") at the end of the text, before the category listing. I cannot find it in the Wiki markup source. What the heck is causing it? JIP | Talk 19:01, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Never mind, it seems to be gone now. JIP | Talk 19:02, 23 Apr 2005 (UTC)
That was on Mozilla Firefox. On Internet Explorer, it is showing "mpos" and a copyright symbol. I can't find it anywhere in the article soure code. Is this a bug in Wikipedia? JIP | Talk 07:39, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Yup, there is something very screwy with the page display. Broken in Mozilla and IE6. Tannin 08:02, 25 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I have reported this in MediaZilla. JIP | Talk 06:53, 27 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] 'bone' of contention

Haha... very good! Jamestaylor 14:00, 15 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Idée fixe

The article writes "a term used to describe a dominant theme in music, literature or philosophy, associated with the 19th century French composer Hector Berlioz". Where did you get this story ? I am French and I never heard this explanation. I looked at the dictionnary of the Centre Nationale de Ressources Textuelles and Lexicales which is somewhat a reference. It says [1]

PSYCHOL. et PSYCHANAL. Idée (moins souvent, pensée) fixe.
− Idée dominante dont le sujet ne parvient pas à se libérer. Synon. obsession. On eût dit qu'une pensée fixe l'obsédait (Maupass., Contes et nouv., t. 1, Héritage, 1884, p. 466). Cette demoiselle qui ne rêve que de têtes coupées et dont l'idée fixe est d'avoir pour amant un condamné à mort (Green, Journal, 1932, p. 88).
− P. ext. Thème, sujet sur lequel on revient sans cesse, par une sorte de manie.

which means dominating idea which the subject can not get rid of... By ext. Thema, subject on which one comes back as a sort of mania. Almost nothing to do with music, literature and philosophy. I never heard about the concept of "idée fixe" associated with Berlioz (who is born 80 km far from where I live). Pierre de Lyon (talk) 21:12, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Golden Sickle Appearance?

I found something rather curious. On page 28 of Asterix and the Golden Sickle, they pass a small dog in Lutetia that looks remarkably like Dogmatix. Is this a coincidence? Retcon? My imagination? Anyone?

[edit] Breed?

Has anyone determined what breed of dog he is? Grandma Roses (talk) 19:40, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Undefined breed. (see http://blog-en.asterix.com/index.php?2006/01/09/34-what-breed-is-dogmatix). But in the live action films, he's a West Highland White Terrier. Rwestera (talk) 23:14, 11 May 2010 (UTC)
