[edit] Episode articles?

Wikipedia is full of articles dedicated to individual episodes of television shows. Since we already have a list here with names, wouldn't it make sense to give Nip/Tuck the same treatment? Basically, I'm asking if anybody would be willing to assist with this. I'm not sure how much I could actually do (I missed the entire first season of the show and about half of the second), but I think this would be a great addition to Wikipedia's Nip/Tuck resources.

I've already written episode descriptions for the first four episodes, as I head a club at school that watches Nip/Tuck on a weekly basis. The summaries are all my own writing, and I'd be happy to put them on here as well. I'll set these up later, as a trial run type of thing. If more people want to contribute, we'll see what happens.

Okay, I put those four up. They need to be wikified, and we also should probably create a template. BigD527 23:07, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Honestly, I think that individual episode articles are too much maintenance. They invite fancruft, speculation, and original research. What I prefer is how the LOST episode guides work. They're all on one page, limited to 500 words, and are purely synoptic. They're much easier to maintain and it's easy to delete any unnecessary cruft.

I've never really noticed any major problems with fancruft on episode pages, and it doesn't seem like it'd be that difficult to remove them. Jeff Silvers 01:51, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures

How do we feel about screenshots? BigD527 01:47, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

If you feel they are useful for episode identification, then go for it. I'm not sure if they will, considering nature of the show (not a lot physically happens that one can easily capture in an image to identify one episode from another). -- Ned Scott 02:38, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

How about using screenshots of the person who is in the title of the show each episode?

I like that idea, the screenshots of the title subject. Also, if you check out the episode list for Lost, you'll notice that there's a "List of Seasons" section at the top. I think that perhaps something like that, or just that, could be incorporated here. --Cliff smith 20:51, 5 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject LOE

As a member of this WikiProject, I will be reformatting the episode lists under the project guidelines. There will be a great deal of change. --Cliff smith 18:51, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Colors

This may seem wicked nitpicky (not to be confused with Nip/Tucky), but does anyone feel that maybe we should change the colors for seasons 2, 3, and 4. They are all just variants of gray. On the box sets, the color on the binding that indicates the season is: Season 1 - red (leave this) Season 2 - black Season 3 - tough to describe, a sort of olive/cream color Season 4 - blue, or something, temporarily.

I feel like the current red/gray/gray/gray scheme looks kinda weird. And kinda ugly. Any objections to me changing the colors? I'll probably do it later tonight. BigD527 01:41, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

Sounds good as long as it doesn't look tacky :P - D.
