I think it's a good time to recall [[Talk:Characters_of_Lost/Archive_9#Is_episode_count_original_research.3F]]. The producers said that we have seen the monster before and we didn't realise it. Episode count not based on books or magasines was proven inaccurate for second time. (Lock's episode count was the first one). -- [[User:Magioladitis|Magioladitis]] ([[User talk:Magioladitis|talk]]) 01:32, 9 March 2010 (UTC) |

:That is not really the episode count's fault.

Revision as of 05:10, 9 March 2010
Richard Alpert
The blurb for Alpert states that he was a slave on the Black Rock based on the 'shackles' comment. Is there a reference that this is the intended meaning of the 'shackles' comment? As I watched the episode it was unclear what MIB's intended meaning was for this comment. Jeremiah McGowan 16:05, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- In the spirit of being bold, and because even the official Lost website does not contain any references to Alpert being on the Black Rock as a slave or otherwise, I have removed the comment from his blurb. Any disagreements, please post and let me know. Jeremiah McGowan (talk) 18:25, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
Man In Black article
It has been in at least 20 episodes, and it looks as if it will be the main antagonist from this point forward. The Monster needs its own article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.0.106.210 (talk) 08:06, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- It is also technically now a main cast member. I smell an article coming… –thedemonhog talk • edits 08:30, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- An article detailing all instances of the Man In Black/monster (including those portrayed by Yemi, Christian, Locke etc.) is a great idea. I think we also need to make it clear in character articles that, for example, the on-screen Locke we're now seeing is not Locke - ie. take the info about Locke post-death out of there, same with Christian, to avoid duplication in the MIB article.

- Anyone getting on that MIB article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.0.106.210 (talk) 06:59, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
- No. –thedemonhog talk • edits 14:55, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
Suggestion
How about a bit on the introduction clarifying the "history" of the characters decribes how it was revealed over the first five seasons, and that the weird season 6 version of the events of 2004 may continue to conflict with that. Might prevent some revert wars! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.146.226.209 (talk) 01:46, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
Ben Linus
Where is he? 98.235.81.240 (talk) 15:24, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
- Look for "Benjamin Linus". For some unknown reason article uses full names instead of the names that the characters are better known with. -- Magioladitis (talk) 15:28, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
Requested move
Characters of Lost → Characters of Lost (TV series) —
- To match main article, Lost (TV series), as there are many things called "Lost" which have characters. Just look at the dab page, Lost, will show that. 70.29.210.242 (talk) 05:38, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose: "Lost" is quite a general term and when someone searches for it, they really could be searching for any in a number of possiblities. But when someone is typing in "characters of Lost", they really can only mean one of four things on Wikipedia and the television show is far more popular—enough so to override the others. This is covered at Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Is there a primary topic?. We have an open-and-shut case here. –thedemonhog talk • edits 08:11, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose - per thedemonhog. --Jackieboy87 (talk · contribs) 14:51, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose - per above. Tphi (talk) 15:57, 6 March 2010 (UTC)
- Comment Shouldn't perform the move User:Tw3435 without consensus. -- Magioladitis (talk) 20:45, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose per thedemonhog's rational Calmer Waters 01:42, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
Monster and episode count
I think it's a good time to recall Talk:Characters_of_Lost/Archive_9#Is_episode_count_original_research.3F. The producers said that we have seen the monster before and we didn't realise it. Episode count not based on books or magasines was proven inaccurate for second time. (Lock's episode count was the first one). -- Magioladitis (talk) 01:32, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
- That is not really the episode count's fault. By that token, multiple articles were wrong for months because they said that Locke had survived his death. –thedemonhog talk • edits 05:10, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
