Talk:Ringer (TV series)

Jamie Murray

Why does someone keep deleting the line about Jamie Murray. It has been confirmed by several sources that she will appear in the show and I included a link? As she is only possible recurring cast I put her under 'Supporting Cast' but the whole thing has been deleted? Dallum89 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 14:21, 21 July 2011 (UTC).

Main Image

I thought this screenshot taken from the teaser trailer would do until the series actually starts and we can get the title card from the credits. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dallum89 (talk • contribs) 00:34, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Cast and Character

I split this into two sections as this seems to be the layout for other shows. This way we can add new casting information as it comes and have a paragraph for each season if new characters are introduced or depart. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.29.124.46 (talk) 11:07, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Why is this section not allowed to be split into main and recurring characters? If there is a reason then that's fair enough but someone keeps changing it without an explanation which I don't think is right. The characters in the recurring section have sources which state they are recurring. Also, the majority of other tv shows pages have their charcters sections sorted like this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.28.255.113 (talk) 20:56, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

Character Name Change ?

There appears to be a new surname for the rich twin, Martin instead of Marx .It was mentioned in one of the reports of the Upfronts and appears now to be confirmed in this extended trailer [1] .

Dead Ringer?

No mention how this show appears to be inspired by/a remake of the 1964 Bette Davis film? I guess there are no sources saying so but it seems obvious. 64.121.150.175 (talk) 17:23, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

Episode Titles

There seems to be a habit of people removing things that have been added without explanation; most recently, of which were the first six episode titles. If the sources were unreliable then it's fair enough to remove them but could whoever is doing it give an explanation so that, if possible, more reliable sources or any solution might be found before removing it entirely. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.101.9.26 (talk) 22:10, 30 August 2011 (UTC)

It isn't always Obvious

Can we look at edits in a less American centric manner please .

The edit summary for this edit [2] was Obvious and completely irrelevant for now and while the irrelevant part is correct the obvious comment is not correct since it would not be obvious for most readers worldwide that the success of a show would lead to an order for more episodes for the first season but for example in the UK and many other countries an order for a second season .Garda40 (talk) 19:36, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

I'm from the UK and I wrote that because it is obvious, it's an American TV show and an American article, so it's written American. Besides, edit summaries are the users preference. Jayy008 (talk) 08:51, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

Writing it in an American style is not an issue and neither is what way you write an edit summary .

However extending the number of episodes (in a season ) of a drama series is if it is successful while it may be obvious if you are familiar with American TV practices if you are only familiar with British TV practices then you know that the BBC or ITV no matter no successful a show such as Downton Abbey is then they won't add extra episodes to the ongoing season .Garda40 (talk) 16:22, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

and that's your views and that's fine. However, edit summaries are a users preference and they don't affect the article. UK networks have always done things differently. My edit summary is my opinion and doesn't affect the article. Jayy008 (talk) 11:57, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Well considering the fact that edit summaries are meant to be more or less an accurate account of what you did in an edit they are therefore only a users preference within certain limits and it also implies that the article is being edited according to what was reported in that edit summary .Garda40 (talk) 14:16, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

And I did, in the first part I wrote the factual reason "pointless trivia" and my opinion followed after. Jayy008 (talk) 14:54, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

In US the period from September to the following September is reckoned as one season. Apparently, in the UK, a batch of episodes ordered together is considered a season, and so there could be 2 seasons in a year. If there is no standard terminology, we might as well let the writer use the terms he chooses. CharlesTheBold (talk) 03:03, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
