Turos he/him Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I have trouble figuring out what different abbreviations stand for as I am not aware of all of Sanderson's works, published and unpublished. Would you all mind in helping me create a list of the established and accepted abbreviations for these works? SA = The Stormlight Archive WoK, SA1 = The Way of Kings WoR, SA2 = Words of Radiance LoP = Liar of Partinel BS = Brandon Sanderson WoT = Wheel of Time What is WoP? What others are there? Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent he/him Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I don't think we have a canon for those. I've never seen Liar of Partinel abbreviated LoP, or The Way of Kings - WoK (it's always TWoK whenever I encounter it). I've never seen WoP either, but WoB is commonly used for Word of Brandon - confirmed canon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos he/him Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Word of Peter probably, and Word of Brandon (WoB). Also, of course, RAFO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistdork she/her Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I think this is an excellent idea, especially for people who are new (like me) or don't automatically abbreviate everything they can (I'm in the latter group). It would also be cool if it wouldn't get lost beneath everything else *cough*, that would be nice too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argent he/him Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Well, there is the acronym tag... It's about as hard to use as the link / URL one, and can do nifty things, like: PAFO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurkistan he/him Posted March 24, 2014 Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 (edited) There is a fairly comprehensive list on the FAQ thread. Edited March 24, 2014 by Kurkistan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turos he/him Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 Kurkistan! You are awesome. I searched the forums for the word 'abbreviation'. I didn't think to try 'acronym' xD Ya, I had to resort to urbandictionary or some such to figure out RAFO... btw, its Ravage All Fallen Oreos! wait.. I guess you'll just have to read and find out what it actually stand for.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
