Talk:Avatar: The Last Airbender/Archive 1

message: Since this is just a theory posited by someone on a fan forum that likely has no basis (even if it is popular), is it really necessary to talk about it under the plot synopsis? I think generally fanon isn't listed on WP pages (via WP:FICT).Virogtheconq 19:14, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed.  This is an encylopedia, not a rumor mill.  Furthermore, such theories do not describe the actual plot in the slightest, but rather state a fan's speculation of where the plot may head; theories most certainly should not be included in the show's Plot Synopsis.  The "Dark Avatar" theory should be removed. Prototime 21:35, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed as well.  Per WP:NOT, this ain't a crystal ball. Removing. Kuru talk 23:40, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Dark Avatar theory

message: The reference to Yuuyan Archers in the "Secondary Characters" section should possibly be removed as the "Yuuyan Archers" is simply a generic name for a group of fictional individuals, none of which have been given actual individual names, hence showing the ineligibilty of Yuuyan Archers to be considered a "secondary character".
The external references are arguably not NPOV as it merely points to fan sites (possibly added by the webmasters themselves to increase traffic?) and not a link to an official site by Nickelodeon or Viacom.
The episode summaries should also contain date when it was originally aired.

thread_title:  Page Quality 

message: when the heck does nick air new episodes?  it doesn't seem to be consistent.  if anyone has this information please add it
I don't know the answer exactly, but I don't think they are going to air anything for a while. Howabout1 Talk to me! 00:43, July 30, 2005 (UTC)
Hey everyone here! To answer your question first person who posted here, Avatar is currently on hiatus (is that how you spell it?) No new episodes till next year! :( Isn't that horrible! The next season has 22 episodes i think. Whoever did this page did a great job! Anyone who wants to discuss avatar did you know that nick.com has 5 message boards you can post on about avatar? Its fun stuff. My nickname (username on nick) is Zarfunkel by the way
HEy everybody its me Zarfunkel again and guess what?! I was absoulutley wrong. THe new season is this fall!!! Yay! 20 new episodes not 22 i think. Anyway I got this information off nick.com so it should be right!
The only thing this page needs is pics. RentACop 20:24, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm guessing as the show continues, this particular section may end up becoming quite long. Perhaps it would be best to move it to its own article. Virogtheconq 04:58, 17 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Bending Styles

message: Isn't this entire section pretty much against Wiki policy of posting copyrighted material - similar to posting lyrics?  Say the word, and it'll be gone! 71.244.170.75 00:16, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Re: Title Sequence Narration 

message: I wrote up a template for the articles in Avatar.  Hope it's to everyone's liking, but everyone is surely free to edit it to make it better.  Should there also be a template for all the episodes?  --Crisu 05:55, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Avatar template 

message: I think Sozin is spelled Sozen. I have proof.
:I'd be curious to see the proof... there seems to be a lot of discrepancy over this, though I did discover today that the Official website (Australia) website has it spelled as it "Sozin" (see the "Zuko" character page), so I'd think that's how it should be spelled unless you have some conflicting evidence.

thread_title: Name Corrections

message: I've spoken to a number of editors about the possibility of creating a WikiProject to improve the quality of the Avatar: The Last Airbender pages, and it has received a largely positive response.  I thought I'd pose the question hear as well to gain everyone's opinion on the notion.  This WikiProject would serve as a medium to bring the Avatar: The Last Airbender-related pages up to par with the rest of Wikipedia through several collective iniatives, including grammar-fixing, wikifying where necessary, removing conjectural theories, removing the tons of unwarranted shipping, adding a few new pages (i.e. a page for the Spirit World), expanding some of the pages, bringing the main Avatar page up to Featured Article status, and whatever else interested parties can come up with to improve this area of Wikipedia.  What are your thoughts? Prototime 06:40, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I would be in support of that idea.  Some of these Avatar pages really need to be fixed.  Seriously, every episode page between The Avatar Returns and The Deserter (inclusive) has been tagged for cleanup.  Projects can do wonders for some articles.  PCEevee 13:16, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

text: I'd like to see an animals page if possible.  I have all the episodes downloaded so if necessary I can get us a cumaltive list of the different cross-breeds H2P 00:17, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: WikiProject for Avatar: The Last Airbender - now official

message: there are way to many. you should cut out the other languages, this is the english article, if there are avatar articles in their respected languages, then they can add the links for the german site, etc. -Xornok 18:25, 8 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  external links 

message: I made an edit to put character pictures with the Major characters. However, it does need to be discussed first so I reverted it afterwards. Here is what I made and suggest we do something similar http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Avatar:_The_Last_Airbender&curid=1620586&diff=64935164&oldid=64907008 Katara's picture would need to be changed and her summary lengthened a bit. Please discuss, I know one of our reasons for not making featured article before was lack of pictures. H2P 22:46, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I like that version. Keep in mind, however, that the ultimate way the page displays depends on the browser, system resolution, etc., so it's not necessary to put the large number of spaces between Katara's and Sokka's paragraphs (even if the former is a tad lean). Virogtheconq 23:08, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

text: Though it looks more dynamic to have alternating images (left, right, left, etc.), I think it would be much neater in this case to have them all on the right.  Possibly without the frame, too.  Just shrink it and don't use the thumb keyword.  --Crisu 02:53, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

text: I've inserted my suggestion using tables and 120px images.  It does look a bit lopsided with a big Sokka bio and a small Azula one, but once they even up (H2P's first suggestion), then I think it'll look great.  I second the "new pic for Katara" idea.  Zuko's picture may have to be cropped to 4:3 ratio, which is easy to do.  --Crisu 14:15, 21 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Character Pictures 

message: The war over the template is an attempt by suspected socks to point at a second episode list article, made to get in edits that were rejected from the real episode list, and should be treated as vanadism.--Fyre2387 19:04, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
