New Characters - Season 12

Morgan Brody (New CSI season 12) already has a CSI Character page, but D.B. Russell (New CSI Super Season 12) does not have a page yet, we need to create one. Am I right? --DisneyCSIfan (talk) 00:22, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I'd wait. Appearing in one episode so far (season only started again this past week, right?) doesn't really bode for notability. In a few weeks there'll be more episodes to base a fictional biography on, and more reviews to gauge the reception to the character and Danson's portrayal.

OK, but why is Morgan Brody's page already made, when she is also new to the cast?? --DisneyCSIfan (talk) 21:37, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Look at it this way - that article is 109 words long, and the CSI navigation template just lists article names and is 131 words long. There's no point in having something so short, so someone's just jumped the gun with it. It's better to wait and work on something with better material than rush it now and forget about it.

OK, that makes sense. --DisneyCSIfan (talk) 21:37, 27 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Season 12 - Revise page

Someone needs to rewrite the plot description (with D.B. Russell as Supervisor, Catherine Willows as Asst. Super, Nick Stokes, Sara Sidle, Greg Sanders, and Morgan Brody as CSIs, Jim Brass as Captain of LVPD, Al Robins, and David as Coroners, and David Hodges as Lab Tech) --DisneyCSIfan (talk) 03:00, 29 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Plot

Someone needs to re-write the Plot section in a way that gives an overview of the entire series. At the moment it reads like a copy-and-paste from the CBS publicity department for this season only. Winter Maiden (talk) 05:52, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing stopping you from doing it. --Drmargi (talk) 06:40, 3 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Job title or job descriptions?

Recently a slow edit war over the capitalization of the job titles of various CSI characters has heated up, with two editors on the verge of 3RR. I've warned both and suggested they talk, not edit. Here's the opportunity to make your case, particularly for putting names that are proper nouns (such as Medical Examiner) in lower case. --Drmargi (talk) 09:57, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I don't understand what the problem is, and I'm surprised there would need to be a discussion on this topic. It's basic elementary (or middle school) English; something everyone should have learned. But, I guess this can be a learning experience. And you just need to go to WP:JOBTITLES to see Wikipedia's guideline on the subject. Basically, if it goes before a name, it's capitalized. If it doesn't, it's not (usually). Example: President Obama, and president of the United States. So, titles in a character description section are capitalized if they go before the name. Besides, the column heading in the table is "Occupation", not title. And I hate to correct you but, medical examiner (in this case) is not a proper noun. --Musdan77 (talk) 20:00, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That is wrong, specific job titles are ALWAYS capitalized for example: "CSI Night-Shift Supervisor" is capitalized, while: "supervisor" is not. --JohnDoe98 (talk) 22:05, 4 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's your argument? It's hard to believe you're seriously saying that. Did you read the link I gave? I gave a source (and no better source for this site than the MOS). You need something to back up your claim. --Musdan77 (talk) 01:29, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
My statement stands --JohnDoe98 (talk) 00:19, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is getting us nowhere. You two need to hash out a compromise that will work for the article instead of staring at each other, waiting for the other to relent. I've also restored an overwritten comment. Please be careful when posting. --Drmargi (talk) 00:22, 6 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hanging like meat

What was the name of the episode where they found all those dead bodies hanging like meat and one person was alive still or something like that? ~EgyptKEW9~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by EgyptKEW9 (talkcontribs) 16:26, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
