Talk:Cordelia Chase

message: While it was obviously something like an astral projection, I'm not sure that is the proper term. She was clearly corporeal throughout the episode, with people and things touching her. Spike drank her blood, and Angel made out with her. Re-think word choice if possible.
No evidence this was astral projection.  In fact, given the theme of the season and later events with Connor, it is more likely that Cordelia did, in fact, wake up and the rest was an alteration of reality/the perceptions of those who encountered her.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.144.159.233 (talk) 21:06, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Does an article on basically a character in a Trash-TV series have to be so long?
After all, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" isn't "Roots" or "Star Trek".
Trash-TV? On what grounds? 24.14.120.92 10:56, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Cordelia's Death 

message: Does someone bolder than I want to clean-up the Jasmine sections?  There seems to be a large amount of nonfactual information about how Cordelia was effected.  For instance "It manipulates her sympathy for Connor and terror at the impending apocalypse to make her sleep with him" We have no idea if this is true, there may not have been anything of Cordelia present at the point.  A large part of the material on Jasmine's effect seems like pure guesswork.--Nalvage 20:30, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm idly thinking about rewriting some of the article to deal with the problem mentioned above.  As it stands it provides info about Jasmine that we don't learn until later, which results in the writer having to give their own retroactive interpretation of how it fitted in.  Maybe it'd be better if the info was given more in the manner it was revealed on the show. If anyone minds/cares, let me know. --Nalvage 07:02, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Original Research Re: Jasmine 

message: Cordy's birthday is often incorrectly given as May 22.  This incorrect date comes from a misinterpretation of the events of the episode "The Prodigal" in which they get an alarm for the office, and Cordy suggests that they use her birthday as the deactivation code.  We later see that the code they chose was 0522.
But the actual dialog goes:
Cordy:  Come on.  The installation guy said it should be something easy to remember, like - my birthday.
Angel:  I don't know your birthday.
Cordy:  Yeah, tell me something that you don't know that I *don't* know.  But after eleven and a half months of punching it into this, you won't have any excuses.
Which says that Cordy's birthday had been a couple of weeks ago, and Angel didn't give her anything for it.
I think that they chose a different date for the code; one that would be significant to them all: The day they blew up Sunnydale High.
Cordy's birthday is in December, 1980.  "Birthday" aired in January, but there are references to Christmas being in the future in it.
(1980 because she's taking Driver Ed in "Witch", and has her license by "Prophecy Girl" so it can't be later than that, and I don't see Cordy waiting over a year to start taking driving lessons, so it can't be earlier than that either.)

replies: text: A birthdate in December 1980 still has her 17 at the start of her senior year, and graduating when she was 18. (She would have started kindergarten at the age of 5.  Under California rules her birthday would have to be before December 2 to have entered a year earlier.) Don Sample 09:36, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Should Dennis the Ghost be in the Romantic Relationships section? They are roommates and there is suggestion of a physical connection between them as Cordelia slips to Wesley and Angel in the Season 3 Episode, "Waiting in the Wings". --121.219.103.204 (talk) 14:37, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Relationship: Dennis? 

message: We definitely need a more out-of-universe style for this article, more like the one for Wesley Wyndam-Pryce.  I found this interview that has David Greenwalt and Charisma Carpenter's thoughts on Cordelia. I'll hopefully be back to work the info in, but it would be great if anyone wants to get started on it now. --Kweeket  Talk 22:34, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: In universe

message: Until the poster completes the fair use rational for the picture s/he uploaded, I'm putting the other one back. If this is fixed, I would love to have the new image, but I don't know enough about it to tag it myself. Of course, I'm not sure current Wikipedia policy allows publicity photos. Screenshots have been the standard for a while. 
If we can't use the awesome new picture, and you still don't like the original, those of you have a DVD of an episode can find a better one. Anyways, I'm off to inform the poster of my work.

message: The article looks good. I'm going to go through and clean some things up, but I'll leave comments here on things that a little too big or require primary editor attention.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 17:04, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for sharing your thoughts.  Don't worry about the episode citations, we fully intend to add them, it's just boring and time-consuming. :P As for the weasel words, it's pretty common opinion that Cordy was originally a bitch and became a hero, so that's probably why it's presented as fact.  It's a little POV so you're right, it should be sourced and won't be difficult to do so.    Paul  730 17:10, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Words like 'bitch' and 'hero' are used within the episodes themselves, within reviews and also all the academic material thankfully. They are objective fact. But yes, episode citations (and general citation clean up) is a big job still to do.~ZytheTalk to me! 15:57, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: But because it's a POV term, it would still need a source. If you want to cite an episode, that's cool, but I would still put the word in quotation and, if you use an episode, then use the "quote" feature in the template and put in the dialogue exchange between the characters that use the term.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 14:45, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

message: Rather then continue the beginning edit-war, shall we keep the Powers and Abilities section? My reasoning is there is one for just about every other BtVS/Angel character, and that information is not easily elucidated from the article. Allan5366 (talk) 12:12, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Powers and Abilities

message: I think the birth date of Cordelia_Chase from Buffy_the_Vampire_Slayer_(TV_series) and Angel_(TV_series) should be added in her article. I know she 21 in the episode of angel Birthday_(Angel). So her birthday must be January 14, 1981. Neptunekh2 (talk) 03:53, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Neptune, Cordelia is a fictional character and unless you know what date it was supposed to be in the episode you are referring to, we cannot know her birth date. The fact that the show aired on January 14, 2002, in the real world, has absolutely no relevance to the events portrayed in the episode you are referring too. Please do not add this information.
