The quality of this page is really low. For example, every sentence starts with "Tracy Torme."é

I edited it so that "Tracy Torme" is replaced with "he" in a number of occurances. Q0 12:42, 17 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rewrite "Political Views" segment

As per the current discussion on this page, I have switched more "Tracy Tormé"'s to both "he" and "Tormé" but this part of the article in particular bothers me.

• The section merely parrots what is in the interview with no real reason for being here (i.e. it doesn't appear to be linked to anything important)
• It is too list-like
• The general tone of the section is weak and "floppy" (lacking a better word).

Some of these points have already been discussed and attempted to be amended by users already but it could do with a total rewrite. 195.93.21.37 15:46, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

The political views section is important because a person's political views is relavent to a biographical article about that person. In addition, some connections to the show Sliders (which Tracy Torme created) have been made to his politics. I have reorganized that section to make it less floppy. I think it is better now except for the paragraph that begins with "Torme is an ex-Democrat..." Q0 08:22, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fictional references

I've changed the "Fictional references" heading to read "Other work". That section is about Tormé being a writer for Star Trek, which is in no way a fictional reference. A fictional reference would be if he were mentioned on an episode of a TV show or something. Haddock420 (talk) 16:58, 24 March 2008 (UTC)
