[edit] Talia's fate

Wasn't Talia's fate not really intended originally? I presume with the telekenesis plotline she wasn't supposed to be suddenly outed. It was the original 1st officer of B5 that was to have the multiple personalities. {{subst:unsigned2|19:19, 9 February 2006|82.18.158.193}

[edit] Sources needed

There's a lot of material currently in this article that goes beyond what's on the screen, but has no cited source. I've tagged some of the most egregious examples about the encounter between Kosh and Talia (the phrase "backup copy" is never made clear in the show, and all future material is sheer speculation without reliable sources). I've also requested a source for the CompuServe quote. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 05:26, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Too many assumptions/speculations

That "one of the producers once joked about having her brain appear in a jar on Bester's desk" does not constitute sufficient evidence to infer that "that the staff considered her deceased".

i.e. one person + death jest =/= whole staff + actually deceased

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

Image:TaliaWinters.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 insure 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

I have filled out a {{non-free use rationale}} template for this image, added it to the image description page, and removed the dispute tag per instructions. Thank you for the notice. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 10:39, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] In-universe style

According to JMS, the decisions to write Talia Winters out of the story was driven by conflicts with actress Andrea Thompson (as archived in the Lurker's Guide. The current version of the article is exclusively in-universe and should reflect some of the external issues. Wellspring (talk) 01:08, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
