*I would say yes, indeed. There was a proliferation of in-universe content related to Charmed - I think some "spells" even had their own article. But there is a general failure to assert notability here and an LOE is the best solution. Also, the character pages need to be redirected to a single list of characters. (cf. Talk:Prue_Halliwell#Notability). [[User:Eusebeus|Eusebeus]] ([[User talk:Eusebeus|talk]]) 17:30, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

Maybe this isn't the right reason to keep them, but I really like that there is a sepreate article for each episode... I definatly enjoy them and I see that somebody worked hard on all of them. If there is anyway to keep them (maybe even by combining them by season or something?) I really wish we could. I think that there generally is something notable about each one. There's a lot of information in these articles about continuity, guest stars (which there are certainly many) appearance of certain villans, powers, good guys and so forth. It seems encyclopedic to me, the manner which they are presented.

I figured I should at least weigh in and give my oppinion. I really don't see why all of these articles need to be deleted.

Revision as of 07:13, 30 December 2007

Photos

If you find quality photos of the episodes please upload them to Wikipedia, so that each episode can be represented by a photo. Preferably a square photo (e.g. 280x280).

Right now for Seasons 5-8 the picture on this page is the same on the individual episode pages. If someone can upload better (square) pics it would probably look better. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 66.62.91.130 (talkcontribs) 16:10, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

First off, thank you for your work in converting Seasons 5-8 to the tabled format. It looks fantastic. Secondly, I agree that there needs to be smaller and more appropriate images...thankfully, the existing ones aren't *too* bad, and thus will work in the interum. If I can ever find some free time, I'll work on this. Quite a job, though, watching dozens and dozens of episodes looking for the right scene ;) -- Huntster T@C 23:28, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ratings

This column has little value, and seems to fall under the rule against indiscriminate data. It is also very difficult to verify through some official means after so long. Unless there is some reasonable objection, I'm going to remove this in a few days. (wow, that ought to be fun...) -- Huntster T@C 17:18, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'd support that remove. And by "support" I mean I'll agree with you, not that I'd help you do it. ;-) Enjoy yourself! --Maelwys 18:01, 12 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Oh gee, thanks :P heh. -- Huntster T@C 01:12, 13 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Season 9

Charmed? Is there a 9th season? Because the story doesn't end there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.126.240.252 (talkcontribs) 22:26, 17 January 2007 (UTC)

It most certainly does end at Season 8. This season 9 is nothing more than a fan project, and does *not* belong here or anywhere else in Wikipedia. -- Huntster T@C 06:49, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

CONTEXT CONTEXT CONTEXT

Is there any possibility that someone who cares about Charmed would like to add an opening line of context into each article about an episode - as I've done here. Currently there is no context, the articles launch straight into a spoiler warning and a description of the events in the episode, without the reader having a clue as to whether this is a book, play, film, TV show &c. Not good. --Tagishsimon (talk)

It was better before the infoboxes were added. Ill start working on them in my spare time. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 20:27, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. --Tagishsimon (talk)

THERE'S MISSING ONE EPISODE!

There's missing the episode in which a waitress of the P3, I think her name's Abby, tries to become Prue and wants to kill her. I don't remember to which season that episode belonged, but of course must be either season two or three. Thank you!!! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 189.143.30.68 (talkcontribs) 19:54, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

Actually, this is the episode "Sight Unseen", and the girl's name is Abbey. It's definitely included :) -- Huntster T@C 04:42, 12 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Title Changes

Some idiot has changed some of the titles of the episodes and linked them to other pages can someone chnage them back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 81.154.202.236 (talk) 16:18, 13 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

I think somes just changed everything back. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Exokadin (talkcontribs) 12:30, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I reverted all the recent vandalism. It should be back to normal. -- Huntster T@C 18:50, 13 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

DVD covers

Would having the 8 DVD covers on the page qualify under the fair-use laws? It's keeping the number of images to a minimum. All we'd need really would be a fair-use rational. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 19:42, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, even with a fair use rationale it would only be decorative on this page. See Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria #8. Garion96 (talk) 19:49, 6 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WHAT DOES THE TATTOO ON PHEOBE'S NECK STAND FOR?

Viewers

Are there any sources for the number of viewers? I think we need to add some before someone comes along and removes them for not having a source. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 02:38, 15 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Single episodes

I plan on redirecting these per WP:EPISODE soon. Information from multiple secondary sources must be present for a single episode to need an article. This includes reception and development. Single plot summaries and trivia don't make a substantial article. I suggest Wikia and tv.com as alternate venues for this information. TTN 20:20, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hold on the redirects until something can be done to salvage the material (I'll port to Wikia when I have time, and Malevious has some ideas of his own). -- Huntster T@C 20:55, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
You can just take them from the history if it's necessary. TTN 21:02, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Why not give editors time to expand articles. Consensus among TV editors seems to be to expand and clean up these articles instead of outright getting rid of them all. Why don't all you people who are blatantly going around redirecting articles get off your butts and help expand them. RS can be found if people would take the time to look for them. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 20:57, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Nobody will ever actually improve them. Even after AfDs, people are all set with summaries. You cannot not expand something if sources don't exist. This is true for most episodes of most shows. Only certain episodes are ever notable, and only one or two shows are constant with sources. Looking for them won't make them exist. TTN 21:01, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Incase you haven't noticed, sources do exist for these articles. A user pointed that out at the last afd for a disney show. If a disney show has sources Charmed defiantly has some out there. You aren't a regular editor to the charmed articles so you don't know the media coverage it has. I've seen sources before and I'll find em again if i have to. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 21:09, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The sources Fisher gave were trivial, and didn't make the article better. Some sources may exist, but it will never be enough to cite whole sections. If you prove me wrong, that is great; it can only help the site. Though, you most likely cannot actually find real sources. TTN 21:11, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Meh, my mind skipped over the "redirect" part and inserted "delete". Histories are fine. -- Huntster T • @ • C 21:41, 30 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Redirection of episodes?

The episodes "I've Got You Under My Skin (Charmed episode)", "Something Wicca This Way Comes", and "Thank You for Not Morphing" are currently AfD'ed, maybe a couple more. Judging from the above discussion, no-one cared to improve them in the last half a year, nor were there many people participating in the discussion. Depending on the outcome of the AfDs, can I redirect any episodes that don't establish notability? They can be resurrected if someone wants to work on a particular episode article. – sgeureka t•c 16:11, 19 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
