Some stuff back

I've readded about everything I thought was good in the original page. However, I'm not sure why the original page got deleted, so probably we have to edit somethings from the original edit. By the way, I think we need a Relationship section for Percy. (You know, about Annabeth, RED... etc.) Good luck on bringing the character pages back! I'll help when I have time. --Mktsay123 (talk) 07:11, 21 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The relationship part is absolute rubbish. It must be rewritten.Pmlinediter (talk) 11:01, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The Lightning Thief and its Sequels

Most of the stuff on this page is copy and paste from the plots of the Percy Jackson books. We only need a one or two paragraph summary of what Percy did in each of the books. Extremepro (talk) 01:19, 28 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think this page is missing a section on Percy's weapon, the enchanted blade Riptide. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.49.84.81 (talk) 02:14, 20 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Major change

The info in the History section is pretty much just restated in the In the Books section. I propose that we just cut most of the redundant stuff out of the History section that is mentioned in the other section. Input below? Thanks, Airplaneman (talk) 00:51, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I support this decision. Hopefully, we will reach a consensus by this weekend. Pmlineditor ^Talk 07:44, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support. Seems like an editorial no-brainer. --Quartermaster (talk) 12:27, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well, we seem to have reached a consensus. Pmlineditor ^Talk 12:55, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I'll start trimming out the redundant plot summary from the History section that is stated in the In the Books section. I'll go this by opening up 2 windows and going through the The Lightning Theif section and cutting what is redundant in there from the Book One section. I hope this makes sense; I'm not a very good explainer. Well, here I go. --Airplaneman (talk) 13:43, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am finding it extremely hard to trim! That is because there are many minute details that are mentioned in one and not the other which make or break a good plot summary. I now think it is better to just somehow merge the two sections to say something like His History in the Books or something. That way, the reader can see all the details in one reading so he or she does not have to scroll around, which is a pain, especially for someone who has a low screen resolution. Sorry for the confusion, but it's for the best. (I hope :D)--Airplaneman (talk) 13:54, 20 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Note for future reference: Done. Airplaneman ^talk 00:37, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Romance

Is anyone interested in working with me to rewrite the Romance section? The entire article needs work, but that's one section that I think could be improved greatly. Not sure if I have time or skill to do it all myself. I made a few small grammatical edits already, but there is so much to be done! PrincessofLlyr (talk) 17:46, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I'll be certainly please to help you. And thanks for joining our TF. Regards, Pmlin editor 07:26, 9 July 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Seconds, per talk note.--Airplaneman (talk) 12:30, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the support! And thanks for the invite, Pmlineditor. I had been thinking about it, but that kind of sealed the decision. I'm going to start work on the article in my sandbox , so feel free to drop in and make changes. I'll especially need help with any info from the first three books, as I do not own them, nor do I have them memorized yet. I also do not claim to be an expert in English grammar and writing form, so if either of you are good at that...! See you around, PrincessofLlyr (talk) 14:34, 9 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

start class

Is this article really still "start class"? It looks a few levels higher than that....Homework2 ^{pass a note}sign! 14:00, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It could be possibly changed to C-class, but one of the points in start-class criteria is that it lacks reliable sources and references. Unfortunately, that's the case with this article. The easiest way to solve that would be a section about real world reception. I figure there's something out there, especially with the recent film. PrincessofLlyr ^{royal court} 15:47, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well that's dissapointing. Sigh. Why is it so hard to find reviews, sources, and references???? Homework2 ^{pass a note}sign! 16:00, 17 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have to say that I am also bemused by the fact that the main character's article is only Start while those of supporting characters are at C! Slight upside down... but hey ho --Jubilee ♫clipman 03:37, 19 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have to admit I did not have the heart to downgrade the other articles as well (which is what I did with this one). Airplaneman ✈ 04:54, 19 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
