thread_title: Untitled

message: The section of this article on Bob Peck's character spells the character's name as Muldoon in the section heading, but as Mulldoon throughout the section itself.  I haven't read the book for a while, but I am reasonably confident that only one L is the correct spelling.  The Internet Movie Database has it spelled with only one L, so I have updated the article as such.  FatDaks 22:55, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Correct spelling of Muldoon character 

message: If I recall correctly, in the novel, Muldoon won an argument with Hammond and was allowed to store a couple of grenade launchers. This he still considered insufficient firepower. The grenade launcher is used to kill some Dromeosaurs at one point. But a grenade launcher is not "a rocket launcher" or a larger and more varied arsenal. A sedative dart gun is also shown in the novel - but in the hands of Alan Grant.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.248.162.64 (talk) 18:52, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: deletion

message: The section on Muldoon is confusing. At first, it states the film's version of what happens to him ("Clever girl...", scream, death, etc.), however it's only later in the paragraph that it states that he dies only in the film and survives the book. I'm up for deleting the in-depth description of his death (the first one) and just making the paragraph more coherent. --Lordnecronus (talk) 20:34, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Muldoon's death - problem 

message: I disagree with the info in this article that Ellie and Grant are a couple in the movie.  There is no romantic interaction between the two at all or any mention of the relationship outside of Grant's one off remark to Malcolm.  I always took that remark to mean not that they were dating, but that Grant didn't like the thought of Malcolm dating her.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Drn211 (talk • contribs) 06:28, 22 January 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree; I have never come away from JP with the idea that Sadler and Grant are anything other than colleagues.  They have a friendly relationship, and intimate in that they know each other well, but I can't think of anything in the movie that suggests it's romantic.

message: The guy screaming "Shoot her!" in the beginning of the first film sounds suspiciously like Peter Ludlow from The Lost World.  Is there any supporting evidence for this? 75.157.115.154 (talk) 07:14, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Shoot her!" 

message: Are the small theropods in The Lost World film really Procompsognathus as stated on this article. I always thought that the filmmakers replaced Procompsognathus with Compsognathus. Robert Burke identified the dinosaurs as "Compsognathus triassicus". But since the species name of the animal is that of Procompsognathus, I suppose he could have called it Compsognathus by mistake, although I know for certain that the coelurosaurs in Jurassic Park /// were Compsognathus.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.130.45 (talk) 20:04, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: They're definitely Procompsognathus triassicus, in the novel and hence, the film.  In the novel, Crichton establishes that the animals are referred to by the park staff as "compys", and the main characters pick this up.  This is also carried into the film.  Best regardsTheBaron0530 (talk) 19:38, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
thread_title: Procompsognathus?

message: When a species is mentioned (on its own page or another), the scientific binomial name should at least be mentioned once. After this, the genus name or common name can be used.
    * common names: lowercase e.g. tyrannosaur or tyrannosaurus (but tyrannosaur is much better)
    * scientific names:
        * Genus: Uppercase, italicised
        * species: lowercase, italicised
    * scientific:
        * binomial names: Deinonychus antirrhopus; Microraptor gui
        * genus names: Deinonychus; Microraptor
    * common:
        * genus names: deinonychus, microraptor
Do not use common names too much, they look amateuristic. If you use them, realise that you are referring to the genus, or to an order ending on -ia. For example ankylosaur can be used for Ankylosaurus or for Ankylosauria. Even more informally it can refer to the family, as equivalent to ankylosaurid. Inconsequential use confuses the reader.

thread_title: Dinosaur naming conventions

message: This is a short list of characters that don't really do much, but I don't know if they should be included or not:
Dr. Simpson -  A leading world authority on lizards who works at Columbia University.
Dr. Richard Stone  -  The head of the Tropical Diseases Laboratory at Columbia University. Dr. Stone analyzes the lizard carcass and concludes it poses no threat of infection.
Alice Levin  -  A technician at Columbia University who sees Tina's drawing of the lizard that attacked her and identifies it as a dinosaur. Alice's coworkers are unbelieving, however. 
Bob Morris -  An EPA investigator who visits Grant and Sattler in Montana. Morris is digging up dirt to support his suspicion of Hammond, InGen, and the activity on Isla Nublar.
Dr. Roberta "Bobbie" Carter  -  A doctor who works at a medical center in Costa Rica. On duty one night at the beginning of the novel, Bobbie is called to treat an InGen employee who has allegedly been injured in a construction accident. The employee's wounds are suspicious, however, leading Bobbie to believe that InGen is not telling the truth about the accident.
Manuel -  Dr. Carter's paramedic, who is distressed by the injuries to the InGen employee and thinks they were caused by a hupia.
Mike, Ellen, and Tina Bowman  -  A family vacationing in Costa Rica. Tina, the young daughter, is attacked by mysterious lizards on the beach at the beginning of the novel.
Dr. Cruz -  The doctor who treats Tina Bowman in Costa Rica. Dr. Cruz is not an expert on lizards, so he refers Tina's case to Dr. Guitierrez, who is more knowledgeable.

I mean, provided I can find a source reputable enough to satisfy you that actor Eric Edelstein does indeed play Paddock 11's supervisor. He may not have an easily locatable canon name by Wikipedia's standards, but he's got a role in the film and is at least as important as Commander Hamada.

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: A cast table was recently added to the page. In addition to the theatrical films, the table also included a couple video games (Jurassic Park: The Game and Lego Jurassic World) and a couple non-notable short films. I recently reduced the cast table to focus only on the theatrical films, but now the original table has been restored. This page is primarily about the characters' appearances in the novels and the main films, which are the most notable parts of the franchise. Plus, there are several additional games featuring voice-overs that are not listed here:
Six cast members from The Lost World: Jurassic Park reprised their roles for Chaos Island: The Lost World, for which new vocal footage was recorded. Several characters from the films (Hammond, Arnold, Muldoon, etc.) also appeared in Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, in which they had snippets of dialogue that were recorded by different actors. Richard Attenborough also lent his voice to another video game, Trespasser. And the characters of Ian and Sarah have speaking roles (from different actors) in the Lost World arcade game. It doesn't make sense to only include some of the games in the cast table, and we can't list them all because it would make the table exceedingly large. Plus, none of these games are nearly as notable as the films, judging by page view statistics. In other words, I doubt most people are coming to this page to learn which characters appeared in which game.
Aside from Dr. Harding, all of the other characters in Jurassic Park: The Game are originals who were created specifically for the game and then never featured again anywhere else. If it weren't for Harding, there would be no reason at all to list the characters from that game, as they are not notable outside of that one game. Half of the voice actors for these characters are not notable either judging by the lack of Wikipedia articles for them. The lack of descriptions for these characters makes this nothing more than a list of character names along with the voice actors who portray them. This information seems hardly useful for readers, although I doubt they're coming here to learn about the game anyway. Plus, Harding had only a minor role in the film, so I don't see it as essential to mention his video game appearance in the cast table when he never had a major part in the films.
As for Lego Jurassic World, the cast list is unsourced. The game's end credits include a list of the voice actors who contributed new lines, but it does not specify who plays who, which suggests that the cast table is partially made up of assumptions when it comes to that game. In addition, the game itself does not specify which characters used archived vocal footage; that should probably be sourced as well, because right now it looks like there are some inaccuracies there in the table.
The Lego short films are not that notable, aside from some of the original Jurassic World cast reprising their roles. One of the films was mentioned in a Slashfilm news article at the time of its release. There's not much more information available on it.
Including these games and short films in the cast table with the main films implies that they are important enough to be there, suggesting that they are as notable as the main films, which is not the case. A majority of readers aren't coming here to learn about non-notable characters (ACU Trooper, "D-Caf," "The Mate") and even if they were, there's not much information here about those characters other than their names and what they appeared in (this would be fine if the characters were notable and had their own character sections with further information). Furthermore, including the games and short films only makes the cast table unnecessarily larger. I suggest we keep it simple and list only the main film cast.  AJFU  (talk) 08:22, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cast table 

message: In recent months, there have been new attempts to re-add the Lego projects, Jurassic Park: The Game, and now the short film Battle at Big Rock. Other changes have been made too. Examples: , , , , , , . There are still multiple issues with such edits, some of which include:
* In the latest edit, the cast table claimed that multiple characters from the first film are mentioned in the second film, but that's not true as far as I recall. It also said that Kelly Curtis is mentioned in the first film, but that's not exactly true, as the character didn't exist when the first film was made. In the film, Malcolm merely says that he has three children. Kelly isn't mentioned by name. Furthermore, I don't recall Lockwood being mentioned in Battle at Big Rock, and it seems excessive to include all these mentions. I don't think mentions belong in a cast table. A cast table is for listing the actors who portray characters. A mention is not the same as an actual appearance by an actor.
* Mazzello hasn't been asked to return for Jurassic World: Dominion, so it's unclear why he was listed as "TBA" (along with Ariana Richards).
* Jurassic Park: The Game was re-added with the following edit summary:  All games have a development team (or "crew"). It's not clear why that would justify including it here. Plus, this isn't the only Jurassic Park game to have voice acting, and to my knowledge, there isn't anything that is considered noteworthy about the cast of Jurassic Park: The Game. Why does it need to be here?
* There is no Miles Chadwick in the first film. It's just an un-named guy who appears onscreen for a minute, standing beside a boat. Chadwick is a character invented 18 years later for Jurassic Park: The Game, and pointing out that he's supposed to be the same person as the guy at the boat (a minor role) seems like trivia that only fans might be interested in reading. Plus, the games largely take place in a different canon from the films, and there is also no mention of him in the second film (as the latest edit claimed).
* There are several unsourced voice actors listed for Jurassic Park: The Game that seem questionable to me. I've never seen anything supporting these claims that Wayne Knight and Cameron Thor provided their voices to the game, and Greg Burson died years before the game was even announced.
* The article for Battle at Big Rock already covers all there is to say about the characters who appear in it. I think it's pointless to add an entire row to the cast table just for a handful of characters who haven't appeared in anything else in the franchise. I also think they shouldn't be in the cast table unless we're gonna add individual sections for each character as well. Otherwise, I'm not sure what value it adds to have them in the cast table but not describe them anywhere else on the list. On the other hand, there's really not much that could be written about these characters, and as I've said, the film's article already covers this adequately.
* Aside from the cast table, the list said nothing about the characters featured in Jurassic Park: The Game. Again, why include characters in the cast table and then not mention them anywhere else on this page?
For these reasons, I have reverted the most recent edits, as there didn't seem to be anything worth salvaging. The cast table is big already without adding in all this extra stuff, and I don't believe the additions were necessary or an improvement.  AJFU  (talk) 23:42, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

message: Some notes from my copy edit of the list article:
* A couple places mention "compies".  Are these Compsognathus or Procompsognathus?  Perhaps for clarity it should be written out in full (with capital, italics per MOS:LIFE) or otherwise on first mention given as Compsognathus ("compies").  I don't think there's as much potential for confusion with Velociraptors/raptors.
*  I'm a bit confused by "original" here. How is it both "original" and "new"?  Does this San Diego attraction predate the attraction on the island?  If not, I think the island would be the original Jurassic Park attraction and "original" could be struck from the above description.
* it's a little unclear what this means.  Does he kill them? Divert them?
*I don't feel it's necessary to bold the character names when they already have L3 headings.
*Is Orick, California, important to understanding the character Benjamin Lockwood?
*There should be consistency between "Lockwood's estate" and "Lockwood Estate".  If the latter is used as a proper noun in the film, I'd say to use it throughout.
*"carfentanil" might be a tough word and over-specific; I replaced this with "tranquilizer" or "animal tranquilizer" after the first use.
*I just want to clarify: in the novel, is Ellie Sattler a doctor?  If not, might have to tweak how she's addressed/introduced.  (I understand she could already have one doctorate and be working toward another.)
*For the names of fictional characters, we should use the names that are commonly used for the characters within the work.  If I've used the wrong name (first name, surname, nickname) please fix it and make sure it is consistent through the article.
*Per MOS:POSS, the possessives of all (non-abstract) singular nouns get an 's, such as Mills's plan and Hoskins's plan.  Otherwise they could be confused as being plural.  If this is awkward, such as with Tyranosauruss escape, with too many -ez sounds in a row, it is recommended to rephrase in order to avoid the possessive.
*In my last edit (diff, if you wish to restore), I removed some details which I felt were trivial:
**Educational institutions which don't factor into the story
**Lists of previous employment
**Death settlements for characters
*I like how the plot synopsis for the first novel/film provides context and allows the subsequent character entries to be shorter.  Because characters appear in multiple films, sometimes material is summarized before the section of characters for that film.  e.g.: the character summary for Alan Grant includes plot information from the third film.  Would it make any sense to give plot summaries for each trilogy, as relatively few characters have major appearances in films 1–3 and also films 4–6 (so far)?  Particularly when we get to Jurassic World, there is a lot of plot information repeated for multiple characters, which might be better summarized.

message: I think that's fine what's stated. It's neutral and finding a source that explicitly states the Mosasaurus was just aiming for the Pteranodon may be very difficult though the animal exerted effort that was aimed at the Pteranodon.Mcelite (talk) 22:16, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: When providing plot information, we should simply describe what we see on the screen and be careful not to add commentary.  I found a couple youtube video clips of it.  The Pteranodon was just hovering at the surface, trying to get a hold of Zara or sufficient lift (she was apparently heavy enough to be a struggle for them before she was soaking wet).  It seems to me that the Mosasaurus didn't have to go that far out of the water / exert that much effort. It actually lifted the Pteranodon to quite a height before closing its jaws, and may have simply been used to doing that for food (from the show at the beginning of the film).  How about:  She is then taken by another Pteranodon, which attempts to fly off with her, but the Mosasaurus captures them both in its mouth. That's pretty basic and doesn't appear contestable; we can't ascribe motives to the Mosasaur and we didn't see it swallow either of them. But whatever you want to do, I don't have a dog in this fight. – Reidgreg (talk) 04:38, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, either way, they both got taken out. We need to figure out how to do this in a more neutral point of view. Either way, Zara was likely accidentally killed when the Mosasaurs ate that Pateranodon. BattleshipMan (talk) 05:10, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: As the Mosasaur emerges from the water, it and the Pteranodon pretty much fill the screen; they're getting the close-up, while you can just barely see Zara's outstretched arm between them.  That visual technique makes it easy to infer that it's all about the dinosaurs and Zara's presence is incidental (and I'm sure that was intentional on the part of the filmmakers, though more to further the theme of human helplessness in the face of natural forces).  However, when I think about hunting behaviour, an animal which is struggling on the water's surface, splashing, perhaps wounded and bleeding, these are signals of an easy meal. The disturbance Zara makes in the water is exactly the sort of thing which attracts marine predators.  Now that'd be original research on my point, and I wouldn't suggest to flip it by stating that the Mosasaur attacked Zara and accidentally grabbed the Pteranodon, but for my two cents I feel that Zara's presence was a contributing factor to the Mosasaur attack, and its consuming her more than accidental. – Reidgreg (talk) 11:13, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Zara fighting the Pteranodon definitely attracted the Mosasaurus (hunting behavior) and as you said Reidgreg she's literally caught in between the two. There was an interview talking about her death saying it was to demonstrate how innocent people get caught up in incidents and that's what she was a representation of. The target was the Pteranodon but as Battleshipman stated she was killed accidentally.Mcelite (talk) 15:32, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay.  I'm just the copy editor on this so I'm fine with what's currently there, even if my view of the scene is a little different. – Reidgreg (talk) 11:04, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

message: I feel like the video game characters from Trespasser and Jurassic Park: The Game should be removed from the list because, not only are they all unsourced, but they're also not very notable. Meanwhile, the films themselves have characters that are more notable and thus are, for the most part, sourced. But, I would like to see an approval before doing an removal of such characters. Gabeluna27 (talk) 19:22, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree they should not be here. They didn't appear in anything outside of those games, and the game articles adequately explain who they are. I brought this up before, along with a multitude of other problems regarding the cast table.

thread_title:  Removal of the video game characters 

message: Originally, this page only covered the characters who appeared in the novels and films. In the last seven months, the scope has expanded to include media such as TV programs and video games. However, this seems to be getting excessive. For instance, I can't imagine that most readers are coming here to read about minor/non-notable characters like Jill or Barney. I think this should be trimmed back down.
* There is a small section for characters who only appeared in Lego Jurassic World: Legend of Isla Nublar. These character descriptions could be moved to that article's cast section.
* The Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous page already has a list of characters, and their descriptions here seem short enough to relocate over to the series article, if necessary.
* I'm not sure why Trespasser was added here. The characters in it don't seem especially notable. Same with Jurassic Park: The Game. Instead, how about a single section titled "Video games"? This section would cover instances in which the film actors reprised their roles for video games. 
* The Battle at Big Rock section is unnecessary, serving only to identify the characters' relationship to one another. The film's article already handles this, and there's nothing more to be said about these characters.
 AJFU  (talk) 19:04, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The Battle at Big Rock section is mostly just a cast listing, and the cast table already takes care of that. Maybe remove those character sections but keep the characters listed in the cast table. Another option may be to convert that entire character section into a bulleted list, because with so little information, there's no need to give each character their own section heading.   AJFU  (talk) 16:37, 12 February 2021 (UTC)

text: With regard to this, what would you suggest to improve it? Also, what are your other concerns? Which details are you referring to?  AJFU  (talk) 18:45, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, one issue is how to describe the characters' actions without making incorrect flow to it since the trimming did cause that. Sometimes, we have to create necessary details on characters' actions. BattleshipMan (talk) 20:25, 23 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm asking for specific examples, so I know what needs to be fixed or discussed.  AJFU  (talk) 14:14, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Some characters, like Owen, Claire, Barry and such, need improved biographies in their respective films. All that trimming has done was causing flow problems and it doesn't explain the actions the characters did. That is what it needs and you removed that. That is what needs to be fixed.

replies: text: I was hoping for something more specific. I have some suggestions, but I don't know if they resolve your concerns. I looked at the three character sections you mentioned, and only noticed a few things that might be worth adding in, like the Atrociraptor chase in Malta, and maybe something about Claire's fight with Santos. Also, perhaps a bit more on how Claire dismissed Owen's warning about the Indominus, and maybe mention his escape from the animal. I also made this edit. I don't know if that helps. I don't see anything wrong with Barry's section, so perhaps you can enlighten me on that.  AJFU  (talk) 16:02, 24 June 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the parts with Malta is worth adding for sure, like with Claire's fight with Santos and the Atrociraptor chase. I also know that Owen somewhat used the dinosaurs to interrogate Delacourt. Now I think about, I think Barry's background is relatively good. Still trying to find more specifics about the others. Maybe a small addition on Maisie involving her meeting with Grant, Sattler and Malcolm, reuniting with Owen and Claire and her help Owen and Grant capture Beta.

message: Do you think the characters and voice cast for Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous could be added to the list? ChipmunkRaccoon (talk) 01:49, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: No, I don't think so. I think it's best to make separate articles from the characters from the films and on that show. We got enough characters on that article already with Dominion coming up soon. So therefore, we should create an article about characters who appeared in that show. BattleshipMan (talk) 03:16, 27 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The TV cast and characters are already covered at Jurassic World Camp Cretaceous#Voice cast. I think that section should be expanded first (with any noteworthy and reliably sourced info) and then split off into a new character list article if it gets too big.  AJFU  (talk) 20:13, 27 November 2021 (UTC)

message: Do you think we should find a way to add articles of Owen Grady and Claire Dearing since they appeared in all three Jurassic World films? I ask this because there are articles of Alan Grant, Ellie Sattler, Ian Malcolm and Henry Wu. Do you think we should do that? If that happens, we will need some sourcing and such. BattleshipMan (talk) 16:00, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Those two characters definitely warrant character articles, feel free to start drafts at Draft:Owen Grady and Draft:Claire Dearing. InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:39, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I glad you agree. Just the question which source I can use to keep those articles up and running. BattleshipMan (talk) 06:30, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Any reliable source can be used to source those articles. WP:FILMRS has a non-exhaustive list of good sources for film-related articles. InfiniteNexus (talk) 16:47, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I created the drafts. Those articles will need some reliable sourcing and such. That's gonna take some time. BattleshipMan (talk) 18:57, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

text: I added some production background on both drafts of Owen and Claire from the list of Jurassic Park characters article. Still gonna need some reception stuff. What do you think? BattleshipMan (talk) 19:21, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Looks good so far, but yeah, the Fictional background and Reception backgrounds both need to be filled out. InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:47, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Do you think we could use some things from the list of JP characters for fictional background, maybe add some things to it? BattleshipMan (talk) 23:51, 4 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, you can start there. InfiniteNexus (talk) 00:11, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

text: So far, we got the Fictional Background and Production background done on those drafts. I put in sources that were used on List of Jurassic Park characters on them. Reception section might be a factor, since it will be difficult to find some reliable sources and how to write things like that. BattleshipMan (talk) 05:21, 7 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: I apologize for being blunt, but there's no need to keep pinging me periodically for updates. Just let me know when the entire article is done, and then I (or someone else) can assist you with your next steps if needed. The drafts look good thus far, but like I said the Reception sections need to be filled out. InfiniteNexus (talk) 03:54, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Alright, I added what I could on the reception sections on each draft. Owen Grady draft will need some sourcing on the Reception section. BattleshipMan (talk) 06:32, 11 August 2022 (UTC)
