Talk:Life After People

message: The article states that Life after people makes no mention of how people were removed from earth. This is true how ever the DVD contains deleted scenes that address what happens to people.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by B D Lawnic (talk • contribs) 03:45, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Since this program has not yet aired, there is not much information about it. Please allow time for me to expand the article as more information becomes available. Thank you. Grundle2600 (talk) 00:38, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Is this at all based on the above book? 71.192.54.222 (talk) 04:58, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  [[The World Without Us]] 

message: I added the  tag to this article. It was removed with the summary (removed in-universe tag; this isn't "fiction" theoretical, yes, but not fiction). I disagree. This show is fictional. I have restored the tag. --Elliskev 18:00, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree it's theoretical, not fictional. If I say that if I drop a lead weight off a building, it will fall to the ground, that's an extrapolation from the theory of gravity not fiction writing. There's no chance of our readers mistaking this article for a history lesson, nor would WP:CRYSTAL apply as we're just explaining the theoretical outcomes suggested by these scientists in this program. Do you have a suggestion as to how the language here could actually be improved? -- Kendrick7talk 18:21, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: User:clpo13 has made a good start. I haven't contributed much to this article, so I'll drop it. --Elliskev 19:08, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I guess I can't quibble over minor verb tense changes. The immediacy of the original style was a little confusing. -- Kendrick7talk 21:54, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I just watched this last night, and I remember it saying 600 million cars, not 900 as currently in the article... but I deleted it from the tivo so I can't easily check. Is this accurate? --StarChaser Tyger (talk) 12:11, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Just Google "life after people" and both "900 million cars" and "600 million cars". 600 million wins hands down. There are a bunch of sites that reference the show and that number precisely. sugarfish (talk) 15:22, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

message: find it strange that the HISTORY channel was showing this?--Jakezing (talk) 04:37, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: At one point, those channels (Discovery and its spinoffs, History, A&E, etc) were fairly true to their names, but recently they've come to have any random science stuff, or even soap operas. --StarChaser Tyger (talk) 02:55, 2 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Genre and Notability of 'Life After People' 

message: On the article's page on the History Channel website, there is a segment of the program.  Is it possible to cite this clip? --Mjrmtg (talk) 12:59, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Amsterdam would take a lot less than 25 years to flood. The protection against the sea may last a few years without maintenance, but the land behind the dikes would fill up with fresh water very quickly without the constant pumping.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.132.148.216 (talk) 11:12, 24 May 2008 (UTC)

message: This article is horrible, whoever wrote this obviously did not watch the show, as I'm watching it right now.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.161.176.52 (talk) 01:39, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Horrible 

message: As stated in the paragraph within the main article "Human successors and replacements", it is claimed that "Television and radio signals - will decompose into static within one or two light years". This probably means that any transmissions from our planet will not reach any distant worlds? Turing this concept around; does this also mean that any similar type signals that could potentially be broadcast from interstellar space would not be detected here on Earth? 
Does this not bring into question the rational of the SETI project? They (SETI) may not be able to detect alien civilisations' if the types of signals that SETI are trying to detect are similar or analogous to that of TV and radio signals?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.28.28.211 (talk) 19:24, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, it does.  That was touched on in a passing remark if I remember correctly. --Bobson (talk) 19:56, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Human successors and replacements 

message: The editors of this article are starting to put information from the show on this article, which is meant for the documentary. Will anyone consider putting a timeline on the show article instead of putting everything that goes on in the show here? --Sneaky Oviraptor18talk edits tribute 18:08, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  TMI 

message: This article suffers from so many things. Someone should copy edit this. For example: "New York City Subway(New York City)"... note the missing space between "Subway" and "(New...". This happens all over the place in this article. I am sure there is a template for "copy editing needed". It should be added by someone more knowledgeable with Wikipedia than I am. 68.200.98.166 (talk) 01:07, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've made some changes with regard to the tone and the logical division of the sections.  Obviously we need many more citations for this article to be encyclopedia-worthy.  I'll see what's out there but any help is much appreciated. Sreesarmatvm (talk) 19:32, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

message: Content merged from Life After_People: The Series (talk)
The merger templates have been on these two pages since October or December 2009 and there are no arguments made against merger on the source talk page. The special served as a de facto pilot for the series.  Johnm4 (talk) 01:14, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger from Life After People: The Series 

message: This, like all shows of this type (theoretical, speculative, or out right psuedo junk science), should have a section with a reception by scientists. What do the leading environmental, astronomy, biologist, and tech scientists etc. have to say about the show? Any psuedo-science/disinforation being refuted?

message: Possibly this is not the right forum for this remakr, but as the right forum seems too difficult to find, here goes .... The concrete frames of a number of modern skysraper-type buildings supposedly will last tens of thousands of years. Far, ar longer than the commonly quoted Pyramids.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.175.7.163 (talk) 04:50, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
