message: I suggested the merger because the merge-from article does not, in my opinion, constitute its own article for something that could be described in this article. Furthermore I do not believe that said article fits the Wikipedia style guidelines. --RK 00:50, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I've been struggling to add a reference to the potential DVD release of Knightmare. However, it seems that a number of over-zealous wikipedians would rather revert the edit rather than correct it. My proposed text was as follows:
"In August 2009, a campaign was started by the official Knightmare fan site to get a release of the series on DVD after previous failed attempts and lack of interest from ITV Entertainment."

replies: text: I think it should be fine, though I'd suggest referencing http://knightmare.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=2535 to avoid a revert. Brollachan (talk) 08:31, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

replies: text:  I probably need to clarify, when I said "this topic" I meant the one on the Knightmare forum rather than on the wiki (talk) page. Brollachan (talk) 10:09, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, right. Still, coverage is required in third-party reliable sources. The JPStalk to me 10:42, 21 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  DVD release 

message: I would like to point out a section called "Life Force".  This is slightly incorrect.  There are actually two different things.  It is correct that there are three parts of the life force: i.e. green, amber and red.  However, this is not a timer.  It is just an indicator. There is not a time limit (exept in time limit areas).  The producers and editors could decide to change it whenever they thought was necessary.  There was not a "bell tolling"; that is the death animation.  
The death animation was sometimes used to indicate the "death" of a dungeoneer.  Lets say, if for example in the block and tackle room,  a dungeoneer got hit by a block, the life force death animation would start.  The life force death animation (a.k.a the death animation) showed a series of pictures from the life force clock.
This is a moot point. The life force was used to indicate a semblance of time passing, even though to the trained eye the life force is clearly not a timer. Pookiyama (talk) 17:02, 5 May 2013 (UTC)

message: I did some work on this today, trying to tidy up the justifications for the show's low ratings on the Sci Fi Channel. (It reads better now I think, but is still pretty POV - could definitely do with some citations.) However, I notice the section opens by saying Sci Fi aired all eight series, but later says the contract expired halfway through Series 4 and the show hadn't been seen on television since. Which of these, if either, is true? Did they broadcast them all and then repeat half, or what? 81.107.32.231 (talk) 19:05, 31 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: They broadcast them all and then would loop back to the start again, the contract happened to run out while they were broadcasting another showing of Series 4. BillyH 13:27, 1 April 2008 (UTC)

message: So does the returning one-off YouTube episode mean that that the infobox should say that the "Original Run" of Knightmare was "7 September 1987 – 4 August 2013"? There doesn't seem to be any other way to specific a "final episode" in the infobox without it labelling up the whole thing an "original run", which seems a bit misleading out of context. --McGeddon (talk) 16:27, 5 August 2013 (UTC)
