Where was the series filmed? jdobbin 05:48, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

I thought the series was filmed at the same studios that Babylon 5 had been filmed at? Can anyone confirm/deny? -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. ^{Think out loud} 14:51, 22 January 2006 (UTC)

It was quite definitely filmed at the old B5 stages in LA... TheRealFennShysa 04:43, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Episode order

I think the information on the order is wrong -- it seems the two different orders are confused, with the airing order given as the preferred one and vice versa. Not only does "War Zone" pick up straight from "A Call To Arms" and introduces all the characters, many other episodes have broken references if watched in the so-called preferred order.

Additionally the linked page http://midwinter.com/lurk/countries/us/eplist.html#crusade shows the airing dates in the order it is listed as preferred here.

And just to add to it all - in what order do the scripts go in? LamontCranston 08:23, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

What is the reference for "Chronological order"? I've seen only that information here and on sites that copied it from here. Can it be found anywhere online? 89.216.161.123 11:41, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Seperate Episode List Page

I believe this article should have a seperate page for a more detailed episode list covering air dates and plot overviews and possibly even pictures. Despite the lack of a large number of episodes I think creating such a page would be a very good move. User:Tom walker 19:03 GMT 29 January 2006

[edit] Galen's Betreyal

Template:Spoiler

In episode 10, the Apocalypse box isn't talking about Galen's activities in episode 3. It's talking about events that would have happened later in the series (in the scripts among others), namely that he wasn't booted out of the technomage order, but was infact put there by them intentionally.

[edit] TNT contract

The article says that jms believed that the interference was an attempt to get out of the contract. I could not find a source for this. I did a search using google. Does anyone have a web page saying that this was indeed his belief? Otherwise I think this should be removed and will probably do so in the next few weeks. Eiler7 18:01, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

There is an archive of newsgroup postings by JMS at jmsnews.com. A quick search reveals that indeed, it is his understanding that TNT attempted to effectively sink the show for their own reasons, by misuse of the 'notes' process:

[edit] Episode notability

All of the episodes of this series fail the notability guidelines for television episodes. The way for these articles to be improved is through the inclusion of real-world information from reliable sources to assert notability. That is unlikely to happen, and these only have certain bad aspects (though all may not apply) like containing overly long or one sentence plot summaries, trivia, and quotes. Per that, they need to be a small part of this list.

If there are no objections, these will be redirected soon. Otherwise, discussion will take place here. Please remember that this is not a vote. If you like the information, that's fine and dandy, but your opinion doesn't really count towards anything. The only opinions that do count are ones that that lean towards the inclusion of real world information. TTN 20:51, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

As long as the existing information is retained after the merge, and not just lost as is often the case. Do note that for B5, which is essentially the same universe as Crusade, all episodes have an article, and picture. These articles really ought to be brought up to the standard of those ones.Tom walker 18:04, 8 October 2007 (UTC)

• At the very least if all of the information can not be retained (as I'm starting to move away from supporting Television episode entries in the main wikipedia as they generally aren't encyclopedic or notable), perhaps a transwiki to the wikia, The Babylon Project (or some equivalent if there is one) for all information that can't fit in this particular article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Radagast83 (talk • contribs) 04:53, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

I'd also prefer to see the articles brought up to standards instead of merged, but if they must be merged, it may make more sense to do so at a List of Crusade episodes, or something to that effect. This article is already long enough without trying to fit episode information into it. - EurekaLott 06:28, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

So... they've just been deleted. No merger at all. Not quite what the above really suggests is it? Agree with above create List of Crusade Episodes and resurrect some of the information from the deleted articles. Tom walker 20:15, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

Feel free. You have had plenty of time to do so. TTN 20:18, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

I was waiting for a final agreement. Now done, List of Crusade episodes. Tom walker 22:53, 11 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Crusade season 1.jpg

Image:Crusade season 1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
