[edit] Notice of One Tree Hill episode article review

The individual episode articles for One Tree Hill (TV series) are now being reviewed according to episode notability guidelines. Please contribute to the discussion on Talk:List of One Tree Hill episodes#Episode article review. Thanks. -- Jack Merridew 10:16, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Merge proposal

On the grounds that "One Tree Hill: Fast Forward" is not its own tv series, or even miniseries. Not that the following are absolutely definitive, but neither imdb nor tv.com list this as a series in its own right. Having the various video documentary/commentary clips listed as "episodes" on the official site does not mean it should have its own article here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.252.211.226 (talk) 02:31, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Major Rewrite

Having just rearranged and renamed the overall sections, and understanding this is a big change, please refer to the Wikipedia styleguide for television shows.

The next step (and hopefully someone else will pitch in so I'm not alone in this daunting task) is to condense the season recaps by a LARGE margin, and to rewrite them so the tone reflects a real-world perspective.

Also, there are too many lists, for instance the character list. Wikipedia is not the IMdB!

One of the final things which needs to be done (as per a wiki guideline I just read) is not to give so many characters their own pages, this is an encyclopedia.

Thank you, brandon.macuser (talk) 03:17, 13 December 2007 (UTC)

Should something be mentioned on this page about how each season is equivalent to half a school year? 72.224.21.120 (talk) 21:02, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Music

First of all a reminder. Before anyone makes an edit in an article HAS TO come here and discuss about it and come to final conclusion. Second of all, I renewed the Music article with more information. I added a list with the artists that have appeared to the show & in which episode can be found. I mentioned the One Tree Hill Tour embarking by the WB. Last, I listed the soundtracks by volumes.

If there's anyone that disagrees with the changes, DO NOT change the article unless we all have a nice talk about it and conclude to something common! Any change tha will be made without coming through discussion will be erased and put back as it was(at least for "music").ClassicDude

Did you come to discuss the changes you made to a well written section, before changing it to a messy list? No. The current version is well written, and follows wikipedia's standards. This isn't a fan site. Russell [ Talk ] 19:18, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Origin of Name?

Does anyone know where the name of the show originates from? Is it related in anyway to One Tree Hill (song), by U2? There was an episode in season 5 called "Running to Stand Still" -- which is also a song by U2, from the same album (Joshua Tree), if I'm not mistaken. FashionNugget (talk) 03:18, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Might check the Disambiguation page for leads...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_tree_hill Biffjohnson (talk) 04:42, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

Tree Hill is the name of the town they live in. In one episode (I can't currently remember which one) one of the characters say's "There is only One Tree Hill". Laboviorodruin (talk) 20:29, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Oth209.jpg

Image:Oth209.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.

[edit] Synopsis

Going through the article for the first time, I notice there is no overall description of what the series is about, I guess a two-line synopsys might be worth considering. Just a suggestion (I do not know the series, or I would propose one myself). —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bpadinha (talk • contribs) 10:15, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
