I love Lost for crying out loud, but come on, this place is an encyclopedia, not a forum for promoting a television show. Coffeeboy 14:24, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- I agree. The Lost Game is very clever, but they need to denote their own work with a symbol or something. This has made me question the truth of all Misplaced Pages submissions. This page is clearly false, as is the Gary Troup page.Julizard
Can we just move this page to the lostpedia subsite, rather than deleting it? 141.154.149.168 18:00, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- I would somewhat support that.Coffeeboy 18:07, 11 May 2006 (UTC)
- The original posting (which was made by a Lost writer) has been copied to the Lostpedia site. If this page is to be deleted, can a redirect be made to Lostpedia? --69.171.193.124 11:16, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
- This is no different than many other characters of books, movies, and television that have their own article. I've attempted a re-write and copyedit to see if it will fall more in guidelines. agapetos_angel 11:32, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
"Talk" moved from main article
The following edit was made by User:63.201.147.43. It is patently "talk", so I moved it here. Fluit 05:28, 12 May 2006 (UTC)
THIS IS FICTIONAL Part of the TV show LOST background information. Currently the official ABC site links here and makes the comment: Enzo I just got an e-mail from an astute reader. She didn't say much, but she strongly sugested I check out the WIKI article for Valenzetti. So I did. (link) At the moment it seems VERY accurate. 63.201.147.43.
Source?
I've just reblanked it - it was restored with quotation marks around everywhere. The problem is, we don't actually have a source from which this material comes. So there are three scenarios:
- The material is copied verbatim from an unnamed source - copyvio
- The material is copied from a source which allows it to be copied, and for which we know the source - should be moved to WikiSource, or removed and just cited
- The material does not exist anywhere else - original research
In all cases, it does not belong here. We cannot do anything with this article until we have a verifiable source. Stevage 12:56, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
