Talk:John Crichton (Farscape)

I put the quote back, pending discussion. That quote has been on this page since before October 2004 (which was the date I viewed before I got tired of trying to find when it was added to the article)

I don't see the harm in it being on the page. The Farscape pages don't have to mimic Stargate or StarTrek, so I reverted and now ask what people think about it. Character quote: Yay or nay? -- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Avengers_fan (talk • contribs)

Actually, as per Manual of Style, all pages should have the same feel and format. Which is why I removed the quote in the first place. Obviously, I don't see the need to put the quote on the page at all, as we can simply provide a link to the general Farscape page on Wikiquote (where all the quotes should go in the first place). I'll refer you to WP:FICT.

Should you disagree, feel free to reply with your reasons. However, we are trying to build a general encyclopedia, and by having a consistent feel to it in terms of layout -- regardless of whether or not its a "Farscape page" or a "Star Trek page" -- it would only aid us in being a resource that should be treated with respect. As far as I'm concerned, having that quote smack dab on the first page smacks as being written by a bunch of fanboys and fangirls, which is horridly unprofessional in my point of view. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. ^{Think out loud} 02:43, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

Maybe the bold could be replaced with italic, but a well-placed quote, and one such as this utterance by John Crichton is actually very revealing about the character. It think it's a good idea to allow the character to say something about themselves like this! And the quote's been here for years!
