[edit] Series cancellation - Move to more apt title

I propose we move this from Jericho (season 1) to List of cities from Jericho or Cities in Jericho, as it becomes increasinly obvious that there will be no season two. The latter would be more apt titles for the page anyway, as it isn't really a pure plot summary anyway. Moved the bulk of the national-level stuff to United States government in Jericho in preperation for such a move. MrZaiustalk 20:24, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Yonatan talk 22:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)
The current article title doesn't match the content. It either needs to be a proper summary of the series, or else retitled. --Ckatzchatspy 00:50, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Locations in Jericho, or Locations in Jericho (TV series) (since Locations in Jericho could refer to Jericho's primary meaning, as locations within the town on the West Bank.)? -- Chuq (talk) 07:05, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
  • Oppose a move that does not include a disambiguator. Even List of cities from Jericho could be construed as a list of cities in Jericho Governorate (by a non-native speaker, anyway). —  AjaxSmack  17:40, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
Apparently my earlier comment was lost or didn't post. Meant to agree with Chuq's statement about using Cities in Jericho (TV series) (cities rather than locations as FEMA camps covered in Federal article split off) and remove move template after initial move. That said, I haven't hit the style guide section on article naming, and I wonder if it might not be cleaner to leave the article here and drop in a template:dab link to correct the issues raised by AjaxSmack.

Forgive the bold move, but I've renamed this article to Locations in Jericho (TV series) as it better reflects the subject. More importantly it also avoids confusion with real-world locations and clearly delineates the fictional nature of the content. Thoughts? --Ckatzchatspy 18:41, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New York City?

I seem to recall it being said that that girl's parents (the annoying rich one who's going out with Dale) and I don't remember anyone saying the attack on NYC failed so... I'm wondering where that's coming from. Yonatan talk 22:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)

The source for the failed attack on NYC is mentioned in the "Cities that reportedly survived" section of the article. -- Chuq (talk) 07:05, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 23 or 24?

According to Episode AKA we know there were 23 cities attacked as mentioned in the beginning. The rest of the article says 24. One of the cities don't belong. --Kvasir 17:57, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] possible vandalism

a user with the IP address 70.138.218.110 made an edit to this page stating that attacks in the show were carried out by "Christian fanatics." the dialogue in the show specifically said "religious fanatics" and never specified a particular religious affiliation of the attackers. I remember this page saying "Religious fanatics" several months ago, it later was changed to just "fanatics". I have changed the notation to quote the exact dialogue from the show and I think the edits made by this anonymous user could be considered vandalism as it blames a particular religious affiliation when there is nothing to indicate such an affiliation is to blame. I think it may be a case of anti-Christian bias --Ted-m 22:06, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] writer from Columbus

This is slightly off topic... but is one of the writers from the Columbus area (specifically, Circleville, Ohio?) Besides Columbus being spared and becoming a capital, Ted Lewis (a Jericho character) might be a reference to a 1920's singer from Circleville. The importance of Columbus and use of the name Ted Lewis seems more than coincidence to me... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.235.34.123 (talk) 04:25, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Plot Hole in New York City?

New York City apparently survived the attacks due to last minute efforts. What happened to the bomb that was in New York City wouldn't that give the government proof about who was responsible for the attacks? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Specie8470 (talk • contribs) 22:01, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
