Anyone care to update the Wikipedia page?

Post by AniDonia »

"Outdated"... is beyond the right word for it. Since usually when I hear about something novel I go to Wikipedia to look it up and see what it's about.

The page is ucky and so behind, and has like 10 sections on "the search for Bree's REAL identity" when really that is SO behind us now.

I guess I'm just being lazy.

If you're talking about lgpedia, we're all updating that constantly. You can help too!

Or if you mean the LG15 Wikipedia entry itself (and not LG15's own LGpedia), you can update that too! I suspect it is really out of date...

Wikipedia.

It is still 90% still about the oh so clever people who outed Bree with a play by play of how they found out she wasn't real. The storyline gets no attention whatsoever.

The cassieiswatching wikipedia page was up for deletion during its heyday. I think it did get deleted. There was some discussion of it here.

Really, as much a phenomenon that it is, LG15 should have an updated wiki page. Someone from the LGpedia should do it! They have more skillz than I!

Heh... I'm working on it!

I added an updated Character section, an updated Themes and Motifs section, and actually put in a Plot section. Now I'm working on trimming the 10MB virtual play-by-play of "how they found out" into a workable section that random people (who aren't visiting the LG15 wikipage to pat themselves on the back) will be able to access a clear and concise section.

Wikipedia really mifs me off though. After my first edit, which I worked really hard on, some "vandalism patrol" editor reverted the entire thing.

Whew! Finished....

:smt015

Check it out and tell me what you think. I tried to make it as relevant and concise as posible. The pot I tried to include the important points while not making it over-long for the casual person looking for some quick info. I totally did over the freakishly long play-by-play of how it was discovered to be fictional into a general history.

Seriously, before it was like, "On September 8, 1:52pm, a post on the message board revealed that there was a photograph of an actress who looked like Bree on google image search, and then On September 9, 7:49 pm it was revealed that her name was Jessica Rose (who has a imdb page, except it doesn't have any acting references, but we're really sure it's her because it was confirmed on her myspace page and here's the link to the message she sent us" ad nauseum.
