Talk Without Action
[edit]Worst article ever. We need not get carried away with the 5 Ws. How about simply starting with What? 83.248.242.41 20:32, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Recasting with "Sisters"
[edit]So Laura Harris is being replaced by Sarah Wynters. They were both regulars in season 2 of "24" where they played sisters! ha ha —Preceding unsigned comment added by Obriensg1 (talk • contribs) 03:18, 6 September 2007 (UTC)
Rumour
[edit]I heard a rumour that the show might be brought back if the film does well enough. I'm not going to put the information into any article because I would like a source before I do. I have been looking around for one, but I can't seem to be able to find the website that I have found the rumour on in the first place.I think it was on the website that is mentioned at the bottom of the page. I'll have to look at the site harder. --Meraculas (talk) 21:18, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
When?
[edit]I want to know how long I have to wait till this film comes out. Anyone know? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.189.230.53 (talk) 17:46, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
It's probably going to be on Torrent sites now, it aired on Canadian TV last night.--Occono (talk) 20:42, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
Daisy's role
[edit]I watched the film last night on television, and the role that Cameron helped Daisy get was from Macbeth, not After the Fall. I remember she made a fool of herself on the stage. Should I change it, or should I try to find someway of backing it up first? Lorilei Mackenzie (talk) 20:49, 2 January 2009 (UTC)
- While understood to be true, this would probably be considered original research at this point and should be backed up with a reliable source. I've removed the specifics from the article, accordingly. —ADavidB 03:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
- "Out, damned spot" is clearly from Macbeth, Act V, scene i. No original research needed.99.240.142.65 (talk) 23:14, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- She also said in the movie "I'm Lady MacBeth". 24.117.43.78 (talk) 21:57, 27 October 2009 (UTC) Noaru
movie cover/poster
[edit]it should be noted that this is a reference to the beatles abbey road album, and i think it also could be a little nod to the Paul is Dead Rumours.

Mandy Patinkin
[edit]Any word why Mandy Patinkin wasn't in the movie? Herogamer (talk) 15:20, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
Degrassi kids
[edit]Did anyone else notice Darcy and Blue from Degrassi, crazy coincidence because I've been watching Degrassi seasons 7 & 8 for the past few days so seeing them in this was weird! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.123.235.199 (talk) 05:33, 8 September 2011 (UTC)
Requested move 11 November 2015
[edit]- The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: no consensus. Reasonable arguments from all participants (consistency vs style guide), no clear winner so we default to the status quo. Jenks24 (talk) 12:00, 19 November 2015 (UTC)
Dead like Me: Life After Death → Dead Like Me: Life After Death – caps – —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 23:56, 11 November 2015 (UTC)
- This is a contested technical request (permalink). Wbm1058 (talk) 03:04, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- On 12 November 2012 Bovineboy2008 moved page Dead Like Me: Life After Death to Dead like Me: Life After Death: per WP:NCCAPS. I think it's something about "like" being lower case because it's a four-letter word ("After" is upper-cased because it's five letters long). – Wbm1058 (talk) 03:04, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- Note Cf. Dead Like Me. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 05:17, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose as contrary to MOS:CT. Like all highly reputable publications, Wikipedia tries to maintain some sense of professionalism and consistency by having a house style. In the absence of some exceptional justification (which I do not see here), we should follow that house style rather than just ignoring it whenever the mood strikes us. If the house style needs to be changed, the appropriate process for that is to propose a change on the relevant WP:MOS Talk page. The inconsistency with Dead Like Me should be fixed by moving Dead Like Me to Dead like Me. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:13, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- Oppose: like is a preposition here, and has less than five letters, so it should be lowercased according to MOS:CT. Darkday (talk) 21:22, 12 November 2015 (UTC)
- Approve: Though a "house style" is used by some for title case, it "impose[s] a cost to enforce the rules and exceptions of any particular house style that, because of its arbitrariness, does not add any inherent value to the text". Consider "Just Like Heaven (song)", "A Moment Like This", "People Like Us (film)", "Just Like That (Gemini song)", "Hot Like Fire", "Back Like That", "Swagga Like Us", "Days Like These (song)", "Girl Like U", "Spies Like Us", etc. —ADavidB 04:28, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
- What is the quote from? (i.e., "impose[s] a cost to enforce ...") I don't see it in the title case link. —BarrelProof (talk) 06:34, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
- I've updated the link in my response above. Its text includes a link for "title case", which refers to a later section that contains the text I quoted. —ADavidB 07:01, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
- Oh. In that case, I feel the need to point out that you now have used pipes to link the phrase "title case" to two different places, and that the one the quote comes from, Letter case, is merely a Wikipedia article, not a policy, guideline, or even an essay. And the quoted statement is an unsourced expression of opinion, which is the sort of thing that should not be present in an article like that. —BarrelProof (talk) 16:57, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
- As I pointed out, the Letter case#Title case link is from the WP:MOS#Titles of works article section. Perhaps you feel the need to remove it. —ADavidB 13:11, 14 November 2015 (UTC)

- Oppose - Let's not, even when other titles uppercase like, despite being used as preposition. Shall I explain more? George Ho (talk) 03:17, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
