Talk:Saturday Night Live characters appearing on Weekend Update

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hey, Jacqui, would you mind if we deleted one of the Drunk Girl pics? One of them is protruding into Fericito's listing now that they've been merged.

Whatever works. I'll play with them now and see if there's a way I can make them both fit, but if not, which do you think we should keep? I think the first is clearer, but the second is funnier. Jacqui ^{★ 04:50, 3 November 2005 (UTC)}

Contents 1 Order! Order in the court! 2 Do we need main articles? 3 Episodes lists subsection 4 Hollywood Minute additions 5 Fair use rationale for Image:Gayhitler.jpg 6 Fair use rationale for Image:Timcalhoun.png 7 Fair use rationale for Image:Drunk girl 2.png

[edit] Order! Order in the court!

Are the listings supposed to be in some kind of order? If so, can the intro state what order? If not, could they be? --Kgf0 23:41, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

Actually, you're right... I can't tell what order they're in, if any. They should get in an order, or have the order clarified. I was thinking, however, that the characters that have their own articles should not have links in the header space with nothing underneath. It's a bit obnoxious to look at. So I do think some sort of redesign is in order... though I'm not sure how. Jacqui ^{★ 00:50, 5 November 2005 (UTC)}

Yes, sorry about that. It looks like it has been clarified by someone else; they are in chronological order. Leadpipevigilante 10:44, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Do we need main articles?

I originally set this page up with links to full articles on the more popular characters, but since then I've realized that those articles aren't all that big, and wouldn't make this list too unmanageable if we just merged them (thanks by the way to Silence for making the article more awesome). Leadpipevigilante 10:44, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

I agree. Wikiprecedent for things like List of Dragon Ball characters, and some discussion on a related AFD, agree as well: it's good to merge a bunch of small related articles on semi-notable subjects, like this, into a main article. If a character is so notable as to deserve a big article, give them one and link from here to a main article (should be very few characters if any, but I don't watch enough SNL to know how many or who). --DDerby-(talk) 05:31, 18 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Episodes lists subsection

I just realized that it's probably more relevant to note the anchor of Weekend Update at the time of each episode instead of the host (seeing as the host rarely appears on Update, and the anchors often interact with the correspondents). I used that format with Jacob Silj, which I just added. Leadpipevigilante 11:20, 12 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hollywood Minute additions

I felt it would be plain wrong not to include the classic "schooling" of David Spade by Steve Martin, the event which seemed to bring an end to the Hollywood Minute segment. I added a paragraph describing the event. 68.147.54.71 03:04, 27 April 2007 (UTC)

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

Image:Gayhitler.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 Wikipedia articles 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 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.BetacommandBot 10:11, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
