I didn't add them. I undid the additions of the image.

Orc (Middle-earth)

Hello, please let's discuss that certain paragraph on the origin of orcs at the article talk page. Regards, De728631 (talk) 19:12, 27 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lex

Lex may be short for "Alexander", but "Alexander" is not the name that he goes by on the show. Only one person calls him "Alexander" and that was his mother. Since you only see her a couple of times throughout the series, he is primarily known as "Lex". More importantly, Michael Rosenbaum is credited as "Lex Luthor" and not "Alexander Luthor", thus even the creators do not consider his name to be "Alexander".  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 15:43, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

His mother called him that, his clone called himself Alexander. Further, there are numerous examples of characters having longer full names but are only credited with the name they are refered to in the work.

Those example articles should be corrected. Just because other articles are doing it doesn't mean that they are right. He is not credited as "Alexander Luthor". Just because a couple of people have used that name on the show in 10 years of airing doesn't mean that that is his name. You're trying to work from an in-universe perspective and you're not supposed to be. We operate from an out-of-universe perspective, which means that we do not retroactively change names just because there is some revelation about what his "birth name" is in that universe.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 16:24, 29 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dexter's Kill List

Listen, I know you might have meant well, but what you did was not right. You can not, and you will not, delete an entire list, just because you messed up on editing it. Le Rusecue (talk) 05:50, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I deleted the whole list after realizing the whole section is pointless OR and im deleting it again.

Perhaps a little more discussion would be necessary, it's obviously quite a controversial delete. I was the original creator of the list itself, under Thecheesykid, and later advocated its removal because it is WP:OR, but I was countered by Hearfourmewesique and the result of the discussion was pretty inconclusive. However please don't edit war about it, discuss before reverting. Aranea Mortem (talk to me) 00:00, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Aranea makes a point. However, I would like to note that, you only deleted it, AFTER YOU messed up the formatting. I'm reinserting the list, and then we can discuss if it should or shouldn't be removed. If we come to the conclusion it should be removed, then that's fine. Le Rusecue (talk) 02:39, 7 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The discussion section is a joke. This was not created by anyone but a fan with no third party sources. I got rid of it because its OR. No third party sources. Add the whole reason I got rid of it is not because I messed up the format, which I did, but because after reading it again, and seeing there was no third party source, that it was made by a fan I deleted it and will again

It is OR. There is no discussion when it comes to addint OR. It has no third party sources. Much of it is interpretation. It gives no indepth understanding of the character.

Season character summaries

Just a question, when adding information about the character based on what has happened during the season, how would one source that properly? Source the episode? --81.240.159.208 (talk) 20:45, 13 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

In text citation naming the episode or follow the template given for the other references for citing an episode.
