Talk:Les Nessman

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] This article gives Wikipedia a bad name

1,406 words on a supporting character from a 1970s U.S. TV show? You've got to be kidding me. In addition to being written in the style of an C+, eighth-grade English class essay, this article wastes significant energy exploring a subject of little worth to the future of the human species. I loved WKRP when it was on. I'm happy when I catch it in reruns. It was fun to find a Wikipedia entry on the character. BUT, this article -- even in its current infantile state -- is too much. Plus, you left out any reference to his coverage of the Thanksgiving turkey drop. ("As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.") I'd cut it, but the author would just restore it. I suggest 200 words is the outside limit for this topic.--24.211.187.175 11:01, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More couch potato gibberish:

Probably should add some mention of the web page "100 Words or Les Nessman" [1], though it seems to have bitten the dust. Also, the article needs cleanup — among other things, rearranging so that biographical items are together and there's a section for the "things he's known for" (with a better heading, of course). Will try to return soon. Lawikitejana 21:32, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
