Rename Page

Can someone (perhaps a regular Wikipedia editor) please help me rename this page to "The Shebang" instead of "The shebang", as it is the title of a program not a sentence. Thanks :)

Sources

As much as I would agree that this article is correct, there needs to be some more verifiable sources for the stuff quoted. A lot of it is what I've personally heard on air so I can verify it, but international readers or those not familiar with the shebang would perhaps question this.

It's just a thought. --Nicko 11:37, 6 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Page for Fifi

Surely there is enough information out there on Fifi's career (more so than Marty - who now has his own entry) - to create an entry for her? The significant bio information in this entry seems more like info that should be presented on an individual person's bio entry, rather than one for an enesemble program.

Quotes

I notice most of the quotes listed are regular quotes which are used on the show, however I note that recently someone has added s number of random quotes which seem to just be quotes that have been said on the show once. Shouldn't the quotes section just contain the (many) regular quotes from the show?

RE: Quotes

- I dunno, it wouldn't hurt to have the other "memorable" quotes there as well. And are we just gonna limit it to quotes from Marty and Fifi? Because Sarah McLeod said something and I thought about adding it on. Crazyspoonkiller 00:00, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This page needs a lot of work

This is going to go down like a lead balloon but I think this article needs to be rewritten. It's long, rambling and boring to read. Moreover, the contents are unencyclopedic.

An example of some of the stuff that has somehow made the cut:

"Notable items of Fifi's wardrobe include her avocado poncho, her Port Power dress, her Brownlow dress, her trench coats and most recently - "Bill Murray's pants". Fifi enjoys Celine Dion and songs about dirty hoes. She has also been mistaken for model Lara Bingle. Fif is a huge fan of Simon Baker Denny's; So much so she often refers to him as the worst/rudest interview ever. She also went to Tintern, a private school in Melbourne's outer east and her mother bought her a pony (something that Marty often calls attention to)."

The long list of quotes is better suited to Wikiquote and obviously can't stay in its current form.

I've only heard the show a couple of times so I'm not qualified but can someone who is a regular listener do a rewrite?

--I've broken the information up so it's not so rambly for the time being. Are we gonna get rid of that information altogether? And I have no idea about anything to do with wikiquote so I shall leave that in the capable hands of someone else. Crazyspoonkiller 00:32, 28 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

--Alright, I've had a brainwave. How bout we put all that unencyclopedic information into a "Trivia" section?

Only one problem... Wikipedia is an encyclopedia.

I'll have a look at the page soon - at least it's less vandalised then Get This...

Stuff removed in cleanup

More to come shortly (putting it here in case someone wants to argue about it :) Blackjack4124 12:44, 11 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
