Talk:Thomas & Friends series 6

"View This Episode"

Twice in the past 12 hours, I have removed "View This Episode" links from this page.

The episodes of this TV series are not legally available online. Any episodes published online without the consent of the producers is a serious breach of copyright. To my knowledge, YouTube.com (the site to which these links have been made) does NOT have permission to publish any episode of Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends / Thomas and Friends online.

While it is not my place to take legal action against YouTube.com, I (and others who are working on Thomas-related pages) will not allow these links to remain on any page. If people want to view these episodes, they can so do through legal means (such as buying or hiring a video or DVD).

Character links

Please note that simply putting the character's name into square brackets (ie. "[[Thomas]]") is not sufficient, and will not link to the corect page. I've taken the time to show how to link to all characters below:

• THOMAS: [[Thomas the Tank Engine|Thomas]]
• EDWARD: [[Edward the Blue Engine|Edward]]
• HENRY: [[Henry the Green Engine|Henry]]
• GORDON: [[Gordon the Big Engine|Gordon]]
• JAMES: [[James the Red Engine|James]]
• PERCY: [[Percy the Small Engine|Percy]]
• TOBY: [[Toby the Tram Engine|Toby]]
• DUCK: [[Duck the Great Western Engine|Duck]]
• DONALD: [[Donald and Douglas|Donald]]
• DOUGLAS: [[Donald and Douglas|Douglas]]
• DONALD & DOUGLAS (both): [[Donald and Douglas]]
• EMILY: [[Emily (Thomas the Tank Engine)|Emily]]

ALL OTHER ENGINES: [[Railway engines (Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends)#<name>|<name>]]. NOTE: this includes Narrow Gauge engines!

eg. SKARLOEY: [[Railway engines (Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends)#Skarloey|Skarloey]]

• THE FAT CONTROLLER: [[The Fat Controller]]
• BERTIE: [[Bertie the Bus|Bertie]]
• TERENCE: [[Terence the Tractor|Terence]]
• TREVOR: [[Trevor the Traction Engine|Trevor]]
• HAROLD: [[Harold the Helicopter|Harold]]

ALL OTHER CHARACTERS: link to any of the other TV Series character pages (ie. Rolling stock (Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends), Non-rail vehicles (Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends), Minor Characters (Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends), etc).

eg. ELIZABETH: [[Non-rail vehicles (Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends)#Elizabeth|Elizabeth]]

Please follow this format when adding characters to episode descriptions.

Superfluous edits

This page has been regularly edited recently by unregistered user(s) who seem to want their comments kept, despite the fact that they are superfluous or even false. Some notes on this are below.

• This article relates to the twenty-six episodes of the season only. As such, music videos or deleted scenes do not form a part of the season. Any characters appearing in music videos or deleted scenes cannot be considered to have appeared in the season, unless they have also appeared in an episode.
• Being absent for a season does not constitute a "final appearance". Significant absences, including final appearances, have been acknowledged already, and so do not need to be changed.
• Insignificant characters do not need acknowledgement. As it is, minor characters are noted in the "introduced/featured characters" section. Rolling Stock Introduced is a section I'm not entirely happy with, but will leave in the article. Having said that, in the individual episode outlines, there is no need to acknowledge minor characters such as "the red balloon".
• Wikipedia is essentially an encyclopedia. This article is not the place to publish your thoughts on superfluous aspects of the series (eg. "goofs", "third time Emily pulls Express coaches").
• One final thing... The correct spelling is "appearance".

Thanks, and happy Wiki'ing :) Gonzerelli 14:03, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Last Appearances (thus far)

Several times over the last few weeks, unregistered users have consistently edited notes such as Last appearance of <character> (thus far) by adding a date to the end of the particular note. Given that these dates are from future seasons, they cannot be confirmed and as such will continue to be reverted. Thehalford 03:03, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Darn it!

I removed the silly titles (The Red Balloon and Edward the Really Useful Engine) but I accidently hit the enter button when I was about to finish my summary. TobytheTramEngine 22:45, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
