[edit] RATINGS

Those ratings are false and need to be fixed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.251.48.109 (talk) 02:13, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Never seen high school episodes

Weird.. I'm Australian, and I've only seen episodes where Sabrina was in high-school. The show re-runs a lot of channel Ten, and I've never heard of a lot of characters mentioned.

I'm from new zealand, and all seasons were played right through to the College episodes. (when most of the characters you will not know were introduced. --202.154.128.213 01:33, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

In light of the recent cleanup tag, and my own personal initiative to do some editing on TV articles, I have tried to do some major work on this article. I added the info box and table for international screenings, along with the trivia section. I removed one or two less significant characters from the Main Characters section (they weren't really main characters) along with some major cleanup of that entire section. I doubt the article is perfect, but it should be significantly better. --Hetar 18:42, 25 February 2006 (UTC)


I've got a question... What's about a new Season? I think it would be season 8. Do anybody know if they want produce it?

As far as I know, the series is good and dead, with no one objecting. si»abhorreo»T 22:32, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Main Characters

The main characters section is for just that, MAIN characters. Annie, Cole, and Leanord are not main characters, especially considering the fact that they were only in one season. Unless anyone objects, I will remove these within a few days. --Hetar 19:12, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Would Roland the Dwarf really be considered a main character? I think he appeared in most 5 episodes. --Sugarcream 08:55, 27 December 2006 (UTC)

Roland would be a recurring role at the most. He wasn't even listed under the main credits where MJH was. --dputig07 06:26, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Mentioning Miles being Jewish

Why is his religeon mentioned? It didn't play a larger part of his character then any of the other characters religeons. Abhorreo 06:29, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

Probably because the characters section in this article is horrible. It has turned into a geneology of the characters and needs to be seriously revamped. Feel free to jump in and help out. --Hetar 18:53, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
Lol, if I find the time, I will. I just added to the article on Nick Bakay because I thought there was a lot lacking, but I don't know if I really know enough to be much help here. Sabrina is usually just on in the background when I'm on my computer... Abhorreo 06:29, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Salem

Salem is one of my favorite characters, it doesn't seem right that Libby, a two dimensional character (Though I suppose that in all fairness, Salem doesn't often show more then his conniving side) who didn't last long should have so much more attention. I would like to expand his section a bit more, but I'm not sure what to write about... Any idea's? Abhorreo 06:43, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you could add to Salem, but I know you could shrink Libby's section some. It's larger than the rest because she originally had her own page, but it was merged here since the character isn't really notable enough for her own article. --Hetar 06:46, 5 April 2006 (UTC)
Well, I added more information to Salems article, though it took a lot of looking things up and of straining my memory... Salems section is starting to match the size of Sabrina's, so I will try to add to her's next Abhorreo 20:47, 6 April 2006 (UTC)
There was an article lying around called 'salem the cat' (yes, with no capitals), which I came across and moved to 'Salem Saberhagen' since that's his proper name. I then thought the section here was a bit too big when he had his own article, so I cleaned up the (awful) content of the moved page and merged the stuff from the Salem section here. Shortens the article a bit, and saves the bother of deleting the Salem article, as he was most likely the most popular character other than Sabrina, and the only one to survive to the end. The last time I watched this show was when I was about 8 years old (I'm now 15) and it's surprising how much you remember when your memory is kick-started by reading an article like this. He was always my favourite character. —Vanderdecken∴ ∫ξφ 16:45, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

There's nothing about Salem on the page right now. It just links to the Salem Saberhagen page. Shouldn't there be something??FruitMart 03:35, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Past/Current Tense

The article constantly switches in between current and past tense. Which one is more appropriate? I personally believe it should be current, but I suppose there is a case for past, as the series is over... Is there any official wp stance on the issue? Abhorreo 20:50, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Jenny Kelly

Who was the actress that played this character?

The actress was Michelle Beaudoin s»abhorreo»i 21:23, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Movies

Shouldn't the movies be mentioned?? There were 3 total and I don't see any of them mentioned anywhere.

The three movies are mentioned in the parent article. Val42 04:15, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Episode List

Why has the list of Sabrina episodes been deleted? Or was it never there in the first place?? --Rapidconfusion 17:52, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Should the Recurring character of Roxie King be added to the list?

Seasons 5-7 featured the recurring character Roxie King (Punky Brewster'sSoleil Moon Frye), should she be added? She is considered one of the main actors in the show on TV.com ( http://www.tv.com/sabrina-the-teenage-witch/show/50/summary.html ). Antmusic 23:53, 2 February 2007 (UTC)

She has been part of the main characters for a while? She is not so much a recurring character but rather a main character because she has been part of the starting sequence as well, as you mentioned, seasons 5-7. Why should she be moved to recurring characters? Sugarcream 08:39, 12 February 2007 (UTC)
Indeed. In seasons 5 and 6 she is credited after the opening sequence as a 'special guest star'. In season 7 she replaces Hilda and Zelda in the opening sequence, as does Morgan. Bubble bunny —Preceding comment was added at 16:46, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DVD Release

Will it ever be released for Region 2? Bubble bunny

[edit] Article improvement

This tag was at the top of the article: {{Unreferenced|date=August 2007}} What parts exactly are unreferenced? I think I will try to provide references once I know what needs to be referenced. Also, the to-do list says the article should be formatted to fictional present tense, how would that be written? Thank You --Concisebliss 05:23, 17 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Failed GA nomination

I am failing this article as entire sections are unreferenced, the only reference in the article is from an unreliable source, and the lead does not accurately summarize the article's contents, among other issues. Please see the good article criteria for ways to improve it, and nominate it again once issues have been addressed. --Kakofonous (talk) 21:21, 24 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Books

I am thinking of making an article list of the books that tied-in with the series. I have made an article like the one I am planning for this one (see List of Charmed books to see what I had done). I would basically just use the same formate but for the Sabrina books. I just thought I would run the idea by everyone here first. --Meraculas (talk) 21:03, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
