Talk:The Crocodile Hunter

message: Is this correct? I was well aware of the crocodile hunter back in 1993 when i first saw his show air on the TV, was this a different series perhaps? Either way we were talking about him regularly at the school i was attending before 1997.
Any light on his earlier TV series would be interesting, because im not making this up and reading this makes me feel like im going insane!--Nzoomed (talk) 20:18, 28 January 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: First Aired in 1997?

message: I know Steve Irwin has died, but is there any real reference that the show has been canceled? For all we know Terri could continue to host the show despite his death. This may be unlikely but I don't see any information anywhere indicating the shows cancelation.
*Any information on the future of the show without Steve right now is pure conjecture.  I mean, his body is barely cold as we speak, so to say.  It's too soon to have any sort of definitive answer to that.  All that is currently known is that the eleventh season of the show continues to air. --Kitch 04:56, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Show Canceled?

message: I thought his wife was from Oregon rather than California; perhaps somebody can verify that. Eclecticology, Wednesday, May 1, 2002
*Yes, Terri is from Oregon.  She originally ran a wildlife refuge there before meeting, and ultimately marrying, Steve. But that has no pertinence to this particular article. --Kitch 04:58, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Anyone else find this section inappropriate? This is about the show, not to the person, at least in the context it's written. It either needs deletion, or an explanation, in my opinion --69.247.169.233 02:02, 5 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Stingray kills

message: I really don't think the section May he be remembered as the connection between humans and animals. R.I.P. Steve Irwin., is appropriate for a Wikipedia article.  Although he may be missed and people want him to rest in peace, this has nothing to do with the show.  I would change it myself, but maybe you all disagree with my opinion on this.  This just doesn't seem fitting to an educational encyclopedia article.  It has, in my opinion, no value or purpose and doesn't add to the article in any way.   -Sam
:It has already been removed.  This page, and other Irwin-related pages are getting a lot of vandalism, so they are not of a decent quality all of the time, hopefully this will calm down within a few days.--Konstable 02:39, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  R.I.P.... 

message: "Influence on other crocodile hunters"  points out that Crocodile Dundee was after Steve Irwin's program.  According the the Wikipedia page for Crocodile Dundee, of the three movies in the series the first two were before the Crocodile Hunter T.V. show.  Only the third in the movie series, Crocodile Dundee in Los Angeles, was more recent.
I changed "thrusted into the public eye" to "appeared in T.V. programs and films."    I don't think that Crocodile Dundee was at all influenced by Steve Irwin, though I did not remove him from the page.  If anyone else agrees with me, could they then do that?
:The fact that Mick Dundee is refered to as a Crocodile Hunter in a 1986 movie, a full ten years before Irwin's show premiered, establises that if the term "Corocodile Hunter" is to redirect here, notice should be given of the term's pre-exsiting status. - Quolnok 00:44, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  recent crocodile hunters 

message: IMHO, The Crocodile Hunter is a very important article, and should be upgraded to top priority for Wikipedia 1.0 release.  To be honest, the fact that so little is on this article after four years (!) of work is truly tragic. --Kitch 05:00, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  This article needs work 

message: I removed the picture as it is of the spin-off movie instead of the series. In the copyright definition it says: 
:"to illustrate the work or product in question; 
:"in the absence of free images that could serve such a purpose"
It does not illustrate the product *series* (as it illustrates the movie), and neither does it over a free image since it doesn't illustrate the series in general. Likewise a promo poster for Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones would not be applicable in the infobox of Star Wars: Clone Wars. Dark jedi requiem 07:38, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Picture removal 

message: Because of the tragic death of Steve Irwin we should have the topic say "The Late Steve Irwin" on parts that say "Hosted by Steve Irwin."  Just to make the topic more correct with the current world.
:No, that only belongs in the biography page to stick with the wikipedia format.  This show is a snap shot of his life when he was alive and should be referred to and remain that way.Pumapayam 23:47, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
