  • Is there an infobox for television show series and/or their episode lists? If not someone should create one.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:08, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
  • s/b "Channel 4 was" not "Channel 4 were"
  • Your third paragraph makes the first seem like it is missing something. I think the word award-winning should be in the first sentence of the paragraph for the reader who iw too lazy to read the entire lead.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:08, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
  • The first sentence of ep 1 (Mark gets into trouble; with his love Sophie as she sits on his hand, with Jez after laughing at his musical work and with some children who are bullying him.) is not grammatically correct because its parallel construction involves prepositional phrases instead of either equally dependent or independent clauses. I also think the semi colon should be a colon, but it depends on the exact modification of the rest of the sentence.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:08, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
    • I've tried to carry out the changes requested. There is a problem with the infobox because there is no infobox that relates to a list of episodes for an entire TV programme. There are infoboxes for single seasons/series, but none for all the episodes across all the seasons. ISD (talk) 17:36, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
  • I apologize for the late comment, but when comparing this to List of Naruto episodes (seasons 1-2), I noticed it did not have episode names. Do you have a source for episode names?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 15:29, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
    • The episodes for the first two series do not have names. ISD (talk) 20:27, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

List of tallest buildings in Tulsa[edit]

  • I find it odd to have two skyline pictures, neither of which has good sunlight. Probably not immediately correctable though.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:24, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
    • I really don't see how pictures depicting the skyline in daylight would be an improvement. Neither image is meant to depict intricate details of the buildings; the first is an interesting perspective of the buildings at night (all other images are during the day), and the second shows the length and breadth of the skyline better than any other image. -- Rai•me 22:42, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • I am confused. Who defines the plains states? The link does not help us with the list of states you name.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:24, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
    •  Done - Agreed, the link is not useful, and the information was not in any way essential to the article. I removed the entire statement. -- Rai•me 22:42, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Why is the reference group in paragraph one a different set of states than in paragraph two? Probably both groups are appropriate, but it is not clear to me why.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:24, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
  • My personal preference is to link units of measurement in their first usage. All conversion templates have the feature to do so. However it seems that I and many others are against policy on this. Nonetheless, it still looks bad to me that the international reader can not quickly remind himself of the difference in units.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:24, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
    •  Done - It is my preference as well; I guess I just forgot to do so on this one. -- Rai•me 22:42, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Is there any reason why no recent past and no near future construction exists for Tulsa? Economy? Politics?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 13:24, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
    • Not really - Tulsa is just a rather small city, and has sufficient high-rise commercial, residential, and hotel space at present. This is different from cities like Detroit, whose lack of construction is based on poor economic conditions. Cheers, Rai•me 22:42, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
      • So am I to infer that they are building buildings that are below the skyscraper range? How tall can a building be and not count as a skyscraper?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 22:56, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

Alice in Chains discography[edit]

Just demos for the early years. It peaked at 6. What do you you mean on the last comment?

List of members of the Swiss Federal Council[edit]

Green Wing (series 1)[edit]

  • In first paragraph put (RTS) after Royal Television Society so the reader will know where the abbreviation is coming from later.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 14:04, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
  • If it is a comedy, why is all of paragraph 2 about falling in love. What funny stuff happened?--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTD) 14:04, 5 April 2008 (UTC)
    • I've tried to carry out the corrections you asked for. ISD (talk) 17:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

List of Liverpool F.C. players[edit]

List of people with epilepsy[edit]

  • The first sentence needs to have some font in bold (probably list of notable people who have, or had, the medical condition epilepsy), per WP:LEAD. -- Rai•me 22:52, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • If all members of the list are notable, then shouldn't articles for the redlinked entries like Martha Parke Custis and Antônio Moreira César be created? -- Rai•me 22:52, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Perhaps a better lead image can be found? The current one of Prince John is of rather poor quality. -- Rai•me 22:52, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Has the possibility of placing right-aligned images throughout the articles (as with List of tallest buildings in Miami and List of gay, lesbian or bisexual people: A) been discussed? More images would add to the article, and it should be pretty easy to accomplish this using the |upright parameter. -- Rai•me 22:52, 7 April 2008 (UTC)
