[edit] Strikethru and bold

Is there a reason why a piece of text (diff) had crazy formatting on it? _{talk to} JD ^{wants e-mail} 14:55, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 'A Future' or 'The Future'?

[edit] Original research

This article needs to be rewritten objectively and sourced. If I cut out everything that is OR or in an in-universe style, we would have less than a paragraph. Slavlin 21:42, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] seline's age?

sorry if this topic has been discussed before, but there is a difference in seline's age between the two movies.

in the first movie and novelization (it is made more obvious in the novelization), seline is only ~100 years old; she was turned during viktor's previous reign (which ended 100 years before the events of the movies). there is a scene in the novelization (and also presumably a cut scene on the special edition dvd) where seline speaks with viktor before he is interred in his tomb at the end of his reign which makes rather clear that, as far as immortals in this universe go, she's very young. she also does not know what to do without viktor there to guide her. in the movie, there is a picture on her desk in her room; in the novelization, it is referred to as a photograph of her family, meaning that she was likely turned in the latter half of the 19th century.

in the novel 'blood enemy,' while her age is not stated directly, it is implied that she is multiple centuries old.

the current page uses the timeline given in the second movie, that seline is 600 years old (even though that would imply that seline was turned during amelia's reign).

the discontinuity within the series is confusing, so i understand if all previous timelines have been thrown out in favor of the one in 'underworld: evolution'. but if not, can there be some mention of these other sources as i have briefly outlined above? 65.54.154.144 05:35, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Strikethru and bold

Is there anything supporting that she became true immortal but not human in the end? Cause I thought the sunlight no longer harm her because she killed the original vampire Marcus. According to what Tanis said, Viktor kept William alive because if he was killed, all lycans will become human again. So by the same theory, if Marcus is killed, all vampires will become human again. That would mean by the end of the second movie, both Selene and Michale is human.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Kate beckinsale.jpg

Image:Kate beckinsale.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.
