Question / Proposal for the Template

I was seeing the template the other day and wondered whether the Xbox 360 video game article Halo 3 ODST should be linked in the "See also" lower section of the mentioned template. The game has several references to the series and features voice work from the actors. IMDb Trivia link.

I just had this idea for a while and wondered whether this (minor?) change could be done or not. I'm not really familiar with this series (although I do plan on watching it) but I thought this link could be added. --Exrain (talk) 03:26, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Error on the Page

There is an error on the page in the music section, and It should be fixed immediately- Ebmonkey2 (talk) 02:46, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Looks to be a broken {{Album ratings}} template. I don't know enough about writing templates to be able to identify or correct the issue. --Alan the Roving Ambassador (User:N5iln) (talk) 03:03, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Fixed. Looks like some ne'er-do-well major-contributer tried to do a good faith edit, but took out a curly bracket for some unknown reason. accidentally. ;-) AstroCog (talk) 03:06, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Definitely accidental. :( This was the first time I've seen a clean-up tag used to mark a template/code error... -Fnlayson (talk) 04:01, 15 October 2011 (UTC)

Inspired by Starhunter?

As a fan of Firefly, I'm always hunting around for good science fiction. Recently I ran into "Starhunter" (AKA "Starhunter 2300") streaming on Hulu+ and it bears an intriguing resemblance to the Firefly series that aired a year later. It has the same reluctantly violent pilot, a piece of junk ship, a black woman sidekick with military experience, and a pixie-ish cousin who also happens to be great at putting the ship back together. Surely by now you see the parallels. However, I didn't want to edit the page as it is merely conjecture. But I couldn't help but be struck by the resemblance. Check out some episodes and see what you think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Matkatamiba (talk • contribs) 00:10, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

That's the first such comparison I've ever heard. Is there a reliable source that makes that comparison somewhere? --Alan the Roving Ambassador (User:N5iln) (talk) 00:28, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

No, that's why I put this on a talk page and not on the page itself. However, I'm not the only one this has occurred to, a simple Google search on "starhunter firefly" turns up a pile of talk about it. But has anyone gotten inside of Joss Whedon's head? Not that I'm aware of. Matkatamiba (talk) 00:41, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

I tried a good search on this as well but could not find anything, it seems pretty likely though. If i find anything i will post it here.P0PP4B34R732 (talk) 00:50, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

I guess partly what I'm wondering is if it would be OK to simply note that the show Starhunter bears some resemblance to Firefly. Frankly, when I came to the Wikipedia page for Firefly I fully expected to see something about the obvious similarities. When I didn't find it, I thought I was the only one to see it. Clearly I'm not. Matkatamiba (talk) 03:34, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Purely speculative, and completely without reliable sources. It has no place in the article. --Orange Mike | Talk 04:44, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

No, definitely not ok; the beliefs and opinions of editors are irrelevant. -- 70.109.45.74 (talk) 19:39, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Info box addition

I added The Shepherd's Tale to the info box under "Preceded by:" assuming that it is referring to storyline chronology, not date of release. If anyone feels this is in error, feel free to revert. Ænea ♫ ^♪ 15:16, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
