Talk:Granite State Challenge

message: This article previously had the tone of a press release. I fixed them, and added notes about former host Tom Bergeron (his article is how I found out about the show in the first place). Realkyhick 05:34, 10 December 2005 (UTC)

message: Made the article conform to The Wikipedia Manual of Style.  Added references.  Helped beef up the article a bit, added sections, that sort of thing.  Looks much more like a Wikipedia Article should.  Still to do:
*More similar shows.  Perhaps a new category:high school quiz shows?  anyone? anyone?
*The rules section needs a reference.  I left it in, because it is largely uncontroversial and (from my own personal recollection) acurate as is.  But it STILL needs to be referenced.
*A complete list of hosts and cohosts by date would be nice
*A complete W/L record of high schools would also be nice (but if it requires Original Research, forget it)
*More history: Changes in format (didn't it run as a 3-team show for a few years?Maybe I am thinking of another show), other changes?
If anyone makes any of the changes listed above, PROVIDE REFERENCES.  This is an encyclopedia, not a personal memory blog.  We need references to back up your memories; truth is not enough, it must be verifiable truth. --Jayron32 07:10, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

message: I removed recently added statements on individual scores.  I understand that the statements I removed are TRUE; yet truth is not ALL that WikiPedia is built on.  It is also built on reliable sources.  If we can find a REFERENCE to individual player scoring records, we can put the information back in.  Unless and until we can, unfortunately it violates WikiPedia policy to keep it in.  Please ready the following policies for more information:
*Official policy on Reliable Sources
*Official policy on Verifiability
*Official policy against Original Research
Again, if anyone can find a reference, either on line or in print, we can put the information back in.  --Jayron32 04:28, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I appeared on the show in 2002-03 for the Winnacunnet team. I can verify that the score originally posted for that matchup is reliable. Every season finale since then is available on the nhptv.org website; a simple fast-forwarding to the end can access those scores easily. So I believe 2003-04 and onward would be an online reference, and technically, I did not do any original research for my match's score as I was there when it happened.Spell4yr 07:18, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Incorrect Television Section 

message: When was General Zahl, the ex-Nazi whom Madame Rouge teamed with to destroy both the BOE and the original Doom Patrol in their final issue (not counting a brief reprint revival) a member of the villains' group? That was his first appearance, and his next, when Robotman and the New Teen Titans took vengeance for those murders, had him killed. His own article, which initially claimed he was also known as Gen. Immortus (he wasn't, of course), contains no indication whatsoever that he has been actively utilized (or posthumously retconned) subsequently; to the contrary, there's a statement that it is unknown if he exists in current continuity. So why is his name on their membership list (they're given as an affiliation in his own infobox, too, BTW)? Speaking of that, what order is it in? Obviously not alphabetical, nor chronological either, as far as I can tell. Surely not random, but what's left? Ted Watson (talk) 21:35, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd say a year is long enough, so I'm taking Zahl off the membership list.

message: The redirect here is a mistake. The Rebis is a well-known mythological being, and actually the Spanish article on it is pretty good.

thread_title: Mistake!

message: In the original 1960s Doom Patrol comic, the term "Negative Man" was used to refer to the radio-energy being that dwelled within Larry Trainor's body, and which he could send out to perform super-heroic deeds. While the in-universe general public thought of Trainor as "Negative Man," Larry knew better and didn't like it. He in fact complained about being called by that name, considered it playing second fiddle to the other entity (frequently called "Neg Man" for short). There is no question whatsoever in my mind that this article should be entitled "Larry Trainor." The section "Negative Man II" here is no justification otherwise, as according to that very text, it was just a nickname ascribed to a member of the DP's fourth incarnation, Ted Bruder aka Fast Forward, due to "his incessantly pessimistic outlook." It was not at all his code name, he was not another superhero of that name, and the item qualifies as no more than a footnote to the story of Larry Trainor.
Concerning the radio-energy entity itself, the article says, "the being, also referred to as Negative Man, or, later, as the Negative Spirit...." and uses that phrase most frequently thereafter. Aside from the fact that "also" dubiously refers to Larry, I have a question: Where does "the Negative Spirit" term come from? Come to think of it, I am going to put up a cite request there as soon as I'm done here. We might make a separate article under the name "Negative Man" (with the text intro acknowledging the "Woman" form)—or "Negative Spirit" if that can be verified as a significant in-universe usage—about the energy being, from Trainor to Vostok (BTW, nobody here seems to have known that she started out without radioactivity or bandages and transformed into "Negative Woman" herself at will; I have made some edits to that effect).

message: Is there any relationship between Larry Trainor and Johnny Quick's Lightening Bolt Jeenie (Jiin)? The two seems similar, and it would be fascianting if the two encountered each other; from "Golden Age" to "Silver Age" protagonists. Also, what if there is a link between these two "electric personalities" and Captain Marvel and Balck Adam, since sans Trainor' entity, all the above are ancient powers?

thread_title:  One Year Later 

message: I just noticed a reference to Rita's alleged ability to become "microscopically small" in the "Fictional character biography" section, which led me to check the passage to the same effect under "Powers and abilities" where I had quite a while ago placed a citation request. This time I also saw there a parenthetical aside about the issue wherein a gas--from the Brain, incidentally--involuntarily shrank her in to a microscopic universe. This ends, "that experience has not been repeated." My apologies for having failed to note it and/or its implications previously, for assuming that this means shrinking to a microscopic level in general, there is no reason to believe that Rita possesses such a power. In that story, the Chief obtains a sample of the gas, analyzes it, prepares an antidote and sends Mento after her. As the gas shrinks him just as much as it did her, her own shrinking power was coincidental to the situation and irrelevant. Hence, I am removing both "microscopically small" references, along with my cite request, of course. Ted Watson (talk) 17:44, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
