[edit] Duncan Macleod in World War 2

I recall the episode it was shown the participated in the resistance, but there was another part (Episode 10 of the 5th season - "The Valkyrie") where he was shown as an Wehrmacht officer involved in the July 20 Plot.

In "The Valkyrie", Duncan was a british spy who helped the german revolutionaries. Secretaria 11.30, July 24, 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Duncan's Women

i think the description for women in duncan's life should be short. the details of their life can be put on their own articles. for example; amanda and tessa's details. HoneyBee 06:32, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

I've deleted Cassandra because there's nothing in this page about her relatioship with Duncan. All that is said here is said in her page. Secretaria 13:45, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ahriman

Moved the Ahriman part to its own page because this one needs to be shorter. User: Secretaria, 23 May 2006

[edit] Wikifying

For people having tim to lose with such articles, titles of episode must be between the "...", not the ''...''. Bye. --Attilios 17:50, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Editing Duncan MacLeod page

I have edited this page a lot, and I will come back to do more, but I have to stop for today.

By the way, are the books considered canon ? Because I don't have them and therefore can't write about them. Someone will have to do this.

I also suggest that any detailed account of Duncan's life (apart from his birth and first death) should be put on the appropriate part of his timeline. What do you think ?

[edit] Editing - Next part

Ten days later... I have made a lot of significant changes and will go on. I am re-watching the series at the same time, so it will last a bit. However, I do think the article is wikified enough, so I'll remove the template.

I have removed the Relationship section because I feel it is not strictly related to Duncan. Also, I have checked Featured and Good articles on fictional characters and none of them have relationship sections.

[edit] Copy edit

An anonymous user has checked the article for grammar. Thank you, Anonymous User ! If you still have time and don't know what to do, you could do the same to Darius (Highlander). It would really help me.Rosenknospe 09:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Changes made by 146.74.230.249

I have reverted some of the edits made by 146.74.230.249 and I give the reasons below.

• "an Immortal fictional character" : reverted to "fictional character" for more clarity.
• "movie(s)" : reverted to "movies" as there are definitely two of them.
• "To date, he has only been portrayed by actor Adrian Paul" : reverted to "he is portrayed" because there is no evidence that this character should be portrayed by anyone else, otherwise please cite the source.
• the series are/the series is : I don't really care about which form is used, but this should be consistent throughout the article. I revert to "the series are" because only the beginning of the article has been corrected.
• "1991-1997" : I'm sorry to say that those dates are wrong. The pilot episode "The Gathering" is copyrighted 1992 and the last episode "Not To Be" is copyrighted 1998. I revert to "1992-1998".
• "flashbacks : the right link is flashbacks.
• I have put back the ^{[citation needed]} tags that have been removed because citations are really, badly needed there.

146.74.230.249, if you disagree with the changes I've made, please feel free to discuss them here. I'm open to any opportunity to make a better article.Rosenknospe 17:46, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
