Talk:List of Jericho characters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Started the article because a few of the supporting characters needed some further details, but did not deserve their own pages yet. The mini-descriptions still need some work though. --Misterkillboy 09:39, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
- Do we really want to keep Victor Miller on this list? He only appeared in one episode. Granted his appearance had a bearing on the overall plot, but keeping a one-off character on the list seems a bit much. Same for Lisa Whalley. I don't remember seeing her in the show, or even mentioned in the show, since Skylar threw a magazine in her face. 199.79.222.119 16:55, 8 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] I've made some edits
Thought i'd let you know that i've put April Green under former characters, since she was killed off as of 3.28.07. AND WHO PUT SARAH MASON UNDER FORMER CHARACTERS?! i've deleted that since she is NOT a former character. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.128.186.205 (talk) 00:57, 29 March 2007 (UTC).
Hawkins was seen burying Sarah Mason in the woods so it can be safely assumed that she is a former character. However, Jonah Prowse is still alive and he is listed as a former character. in an online interview someone asked about his status on the show. The producer said that unless you see someone die onscreen don't count them out. Its a good idea then to put Jonah back onto the active roster. 74.69.159.42 12:57, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Goetz and Ravenwood
Should we put these guys in? They've caused some trouble.
[edit] Re-Organization
The article would be much better if all the mini descriptions for characters with seperate articles were taken out, and those characters placed in a table (like Characters of Lost). I made the table but it was removed. Then all the minor characters would be place underneath with mini descriptions (again, like Characters of Lost).
Here's my proposed table:
| Picture | Name | Portrayed by | Occupation/Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Image:Jerico bios photo michael gaston.jpg | Gray Anderson | Michael Gaston | Salt Mine owner/operator |
| Image:Jerico bios photo kenneth mitchell.jpg | Eric Green | Kenneth Mitchell | Deputy Mayor |
| Image:Jerico bios photo pamela reed.jpg | Gail Green | Pamela Reed | Mayor's wife |
| Image:Jerico bios photo skeet ulrich.jpg | Jake Green | Skeet Ulrich | Unknown |
| Image:Jerico bios photo gerald mcraney.jpg | Mayor Johnston Green | Gerald McRaney | Mayor |
| Image:Jerico bios photo lennie james.jpg | Robert Hawkins | Lennie James | Unknown |
| Image:Jerico bios photo sprague grayden.jpg | Heather Lisinski | Sprague Grayden | Teacher |
| Stanley Richmond | Brad Beyer | Farmer | |
| Image:Jerico bios photo ashley scott.jpg | Emily Sullivan | Ashley Scott | Teacher |
| Image:Jerico bios photo erik knudsen.jpg | Dale Turner | Erik Knudsen | Student, Former Grocrey Store Employee |
If it needs adjusting or characters added that have star billing, go ahead and edit it.
Preferably, Jake and his family up top.
What happened to the pics? That's happened to all the pics to do with Jericho characters. Almost... 211.30.215.168 06:08, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
Check this out. They were missing fair use rationale.--Kamikaze 08:52, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Hawkins family
Which episode revealed that Darcy, Allison, and Samuel are not the actual names of the Hawkins family? I remember a scene where they were practicing cover stories, but I don't remember anything about them practicing different names. --Psiphiorg 10:01, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Main vs. minor characters
Cwk14724 is continually adding minor characters to the "Main characters' list, despite the fact that his changes are contrary to the CBS Jericho website character list. I'm tired of dealing with this, but it should be resolved in some manner - so I'd appreciate some input from other editors. Here's the discussion from today: --Ckatzchatspy 21:13, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Discussion at User talk:Cwk14724 after the first change
Please stop rewriting the Jericho pages to "promote" minor characters. Only certain characters are identified as "main" or primary roles, and this decision is made by the television network and the production company. Wikipedia articles have to follow these decisions; it is not our role to decide who is a main character and who is a minor character. For assistance, I again ask that you refer to the Jericho website at [1]. Thank you. --Ckatzchatspy 19:35, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- Since you're active on the Jericho pages, though, you may be interested to see that Shoshannah Stern ("Bonnie") is listed on the web site. As such, she could be added to the list. Cheers. --Ckatzchatspy 20:16, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
after the second change
discussion moves to User talk:Ckatz#Jericho characters
Dude, the only reason they are listed a main charachters is because that is what the Jerichowiki page says on cbs.com. Also they all have pictures and Depty Bill and Jimmy have maine articles that I wrote
- Again, check the show's page at CBS.com. That is the list of characters - 12 in total, not including any of the ones you added. The fact that you created an article about a character on a TV show does not make him or her a "main" character, it just means that there is an article. You can still link to your article from the entry in the "minor" characters section. --Ckatzchatspy 20:33, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

- On the JerichoWIki page on cbs, Jonah, Gracie, and Mimi are listed as main characters. As far as april green, she is a very important roll. I see where you are coming from with Mary. As as for The Deputies article, they have main articles. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cwk14724 (talk • contribs).

- Once again, it does not matter if you, or I, or a TV reviewer, or anyone else thinks a particular role is "important". The show's producers and the network decide who the "stars" are, and who gets promoted as such, in conjunction with union agreements. The Jericho "Wiki" is not the same as the official site, and - even if it was - the deputies are listed under "supporting characters". I could write an article about the guy who died from radiation poisoning (just as you did for the two deputies) but it still wouldn't make him a main character. I'm going to restore the list to what it should be based on the official CBS website, as your own examples prove that the changes you've made do not reflect the actual character list. Please take your concerns to the article talk page if you wish to seek a change, rather than just changing the article over and over again. Thanks. --Ckatzchatspy 20:53, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pictures:
All the pictures randomly appear at the bottom of their part of the article, which is ugly. Someone add the caption too, I don't know what it should look like. 211.30.223.128 07:12, 10 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Merging minor character articles
Some of the articles about minor characters are really... well, not great, to be polite. There are quite a few that could easily be returned here without losing any important details. For example, the two articles about the deputies (Jimmy Taylor and Bill Erikson) are little more than descriptions of every minor action the characters have done.
From Jimmy Taylor: "In Blackjack Jimmy and Jake went to check on various towns people after a dramatic tempature drop, When Jake find the dead body of a resident Jimmy says in a soft and compasionate voice, "The tempature dropped so quickly." In the same episode, Jimmy tells Robert Hawkins that a woman was looking for him."
If the characters were more important, or likely to develop in any meaningful way, it might be worth considering a rewrite. however, given how most of them won't go that route, I'd like to propose that we seriously consider merging the small amount of relevant information into this list and doing away with the "Minor characters" table. Thoughts? --Ckatzchatspy 06:56, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
