[edit] Partly fictional?

Why are we claiming that the character Robert Langdon is anything but pure fiction? Shoaler 18:54, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Priory of Sion Member?

-=SPOILER=-

I don't recall Langdon being a member of the Priory, unless you mean the fact that Sophie's mother allowed him to find the Grail is an induction into the order.

[edit] Definitely named after John Langdon

Just found this in the written judgement for Dan Brown's recent court case:

"60. In Angels & Demons he introduced Robert Langdon as a character for the first time. He is based on an artist and philosopher John Langdon." [1]

I've updated the article to reflect this more accurately. --Entirety 11:25, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Robert's relationships

I was wondering: what happened between Robert and Vittoria? How come he follows a relationship at the end of the Da Vinci Code with Sophie, when he had sex with Vittoria? Did I miss the break-up or something? loulou 03:22, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

No, it doesn't say that the broke up or something (heck, I thought they were married) but they we're drifting apart. Which I just think is a swack in their relationship as mr Brown probably tried to describe real love between the two in Angels & Demons ("like they had known each other far longer then they had..."... or something. Also, does anyone know if Robert and Vittoria got married? Since he had the dream where a young woman was shouting "come on Robert! I knew I should have married a younger man"? ---Hackeru

[edit] Short Question

I'm of the opinion that Robert Langdon was an atheist. Didn't he say so in Angels and Demons? Correct? SapphireSprite 04:11, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Both yes... and no. He did become a sort of believer at the end of A&D but I think he lost that when he learned of what the Camerlengo had done ---Hackeru

[edit] "Assuming" doesn't work

This article has bits of total speculation!

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Picsony2006-15.jpg

Image:Picsony2006-15.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
