Talk:Martha Logan

message: "Jean Smart is the only actress on 24 besides Kiefer Sutherland to be nominated for more than one Emmy for her performance."
Clunky, because it reads as if we're calling Kiefer an "actress".
For now I've replaced with "Jean Smart is the only actress/actor on 24 besides Kiefer Sutherland..." but that seems lacking.
If anyone has a better alternative, I'd welcome it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.159.6.129 (talk) 21:04, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

message: I did not get the impression that she intended to kill Charles, she herself seemed distressed over what she had done.  I believe she merely wanted to hurt him. - BlackWidower 04:17, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Season 6 Picture 

message: Yet another completely unnecessary merger.  Martha Logan was one of THE most important characters in Day 5 (the most watched season), is played by a notable actress and had a significant impact on the show.  Jean Smart was nominated for an Emmy for her portrayal of this character. Keep-Phoenixfan 16:51, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Then how come your tags always get pulled by the admins when you fail to garner support for your mergers? Angelriver (talk) 23:37, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

text: ALL of your tags have been pulled by the admins....at least all the ones for the 24 characters. And you know it. Angelriver (talk) 00:17, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

text: Lucy, do you remember when you tried to merge every single character except for Jack?  You lost and your merger tags were removed by an admin.  Quit trying to pretend it didn’t happen.  We know your tricks and aren’t going to let you get away with destroying these pages. --MiB-24 (talk) 01:59, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger proposal 

message: I've removed this detail from the article "She met Charles Logan while he was serving in the California State Legislature." I couldn't find any references to verify that, so I've moved it to the talk page. If this can be referenced, either from the 24 TV show, or from somewhere else, feel free to re-add it, and source it.

thread_title:  Unsourced information. 

message: I've looked through the plot summary for Day 5 and 6. Day 6 is OK, but needs fixing. Day 5 is abysmal, and as such, I've scrapped it from the article. It's below, but I have reasons for scrapping it. I'll work on having it rewritten as soon as possible. If you feel you can contribute, please do so. The plot summary needs to be concise, and balanced well. At the moment, it's unbalanced. Steve Crossin (talk) (anon talk) 10:20, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Plot Summary. 

message: I've tagged this section as needing a re-write. It's poorly balanced, as in, there is too little emphasis on certain earlier events, and too much emphasis on later events. Also, the 2 leading sentences are completely incorrect, I'll do my best to improve the section, I could use help though. Remember, be concise. This article is currently a B class, let's try improving it to a GA. You can ask me for more help if necessary. Cheers, Steve Crossin (talk) (anon talk) 12:53, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Day 5 Plot Summary

thread_title: 3rd sentence

message: Passes the GAC criteria beautifully; won't even bother posting the entire criteria. 100% pass, good work. Just a few suggestions:
*I don't think this needs to be included: "Prior to her role as Martha Logan, Smart was best known for her role on the Designing Women series, as Charlene Frazier-Stillfield. She had won two Emmys: one for a guest appearance on Frasier and another for a recurring part on The District." The article is about the character, not the actress. Having a bit about both can be confusing.
*"She was once the most trusted adviser for the indecisive politician." Which indecisive politician (Charles Logan, I presume?)? It should be mentioned, as it's a new section; Charles Logan hasn't been mentioned since the first sentence. 
*"Several hours later, Martha is frustrated to see her husband negotiating with terrorist Vladimir Bierko and his willingness to compromise Yuri Suvarov and his wife's safety. Aaron Pierce eventually saves her from the ambush." Is frustrated the best word in the first sentence? What ambush does the second sentence refer to (change to "an ambush" if you don't want to clarify/be specific)? 
*"Their marriage has been described as "one of the highlights of this year." Unclear.
Once more, kudos. And here's the icon:  · AndonicO Engage. 09:28, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  [[Wikipedia:Good article]]. 

message: She was committed to a mental hospital in the season 6, while Aaron Pierce was romantically involved with her, thus most probably ruining their relationship. I think its fair to say thats what President Taylor was refering to since it happened in the previous season. It's further enforced when Aaron Pierce says "I don't want to talk about it", because he likely blamed himself for what happened as he agreed to circumstances. I'm removing the mention until there is significant proof that she has been injured or killed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by TheJoak (talk • contribs) 05:25, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
