[edit] Why is this WikiProject needed?

I mean, what useful articles are there about the subject besides the movie articles? TheBlazikenMaster 01:26, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

You mean, besides the articles about the characters, traps, soundtracks and the comicbook?--CyberGhostface 02:51, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Ok, that's good enough answer to me. TheBlazikenMaster 09:35, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Still-sitting merge request!

The merge request to attach Lynn Denlon to Jeff Reinhart has been sitting around for a while. Shall we take action and merge them or not? There've been nothing said against the idea. What might make it easier would be to just label the new article The Reinhart family (Saw) or something, and have little tidbits on Dylan and Corbett, no? Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 01:15, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

That sounds like a good idea. I'll add it to the merge box on the main page and see what can be done tomorrow.--CyberGhostface 02:28, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

K, thanks Cyber, now we have Reinhart family (Saw) created and probably in need of some more editing, shall we start by getting rid of Jeff Reinhart and Lynn Denlon, and editing any links to said articles? Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 03:12, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Alright, I'll redirect their pages and go on from there.--CyberGhostface 11:33, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

Out of curiousity, since there is no "Reinhart family" article should I just remove the (Saw) bit?--CyberGhostface 11:37, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

K, picked through List of Saw characters and List of traps in the Saw film series to fix links to properly link to Reinhart family. What's the status on Adam/Lawrence merge? What would the article name be? I'm not all that happy with merging the two, but I'm sure it'll save space etc. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 05:14, 5 September 2007 (UTC)

Maybe we don't have to merge it yet unless a consensus calls for it. If we did, the title would probably be Adam Faulkner and Lawrence Gordon or some variation thereof. Being as they aren't related, it'd be harder to find some uniform name than with Jeff and Lynn.--CyberGhostface 18:47, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Collaboration

A corroboration of the month, or maybe the week, should probably be set up. Any suggestions on length or the first target? --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 21:41, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

I think an article that's closest to being FA status should go first. There'd probably be more external information on the films themselves than on characters, so I'd say either the article on the first Saw or the whole series article.--CyberGhostface 21:55, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

The first film might be a good idea probably a month should be plenty of time to make progress. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 23:15, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

So is it decided? Is Saw going to be the first collaboration? How about we say it goes throughout the month of October for Halloween, or should we do something else by then?--CyberGhostface 20:58, 10 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Concerning the "Did you know?" box...

I think it would really be a good addition to this page, and would help to wipe out any trivia on the Saw pages to clean them up, no? Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 20:45, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, that sounds like a good idea as well. Do you want to start it?--CyberGhostface 21:22, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

While I wouldn't mind starting it, I think someone with a bit more know-how concerning templates should take on this one. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 21:34, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

I can contribute a bit of my time, if help is needed on the Saw project!!!!! Zenlax 1:24, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Do you want to add the box? I'm not too sure how it works myself, unless someone knows of a template somewhere.--CyberGhostface 21:32, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps it should be chalked up on the "To Do" list for someone more capable? Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 00:21, 18 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Saw characters

Any thoughts? Articles: List of Saw characters, Jigsaw Killer, Amanda Young, Detective Eric Matthews, Adam Faulkner, Lawrence Gordon (Saw), Reinhart family. Just a thought, although it may just be for nothing. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 20:45, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Pig mask

I was thinking, could we make an article for the pig mask? We have enough knowledge concerning it, appearances and uses, as well as it's origins. It is an inanimate object, but so is Billy, and he has an article that's lasted this long. So what do you guys think? Does it have enough importance in the Saw series to be given an article? Is it encyclopedic enough for an article? Or is it just a trivial thing? If it doesn't get an article, I feel as if it should be explained in another article. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 03:45, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

Article made. Jack Of Hearts | Miss A Turn 01:46, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Protection

Can a Protection Go up for the Saw V (soundtrack) and Saw VI (soundtrack) pages Please. Me myself don't know yet how to protect a page for future creation. Thanks --^҉ რɫՒ◌§ 9¤ _ॐ 23:12, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Figure I should throw out an apology here...

The user that's currently going around deleting all the non-cited information in the articles is almost certainly my fault. In the Pig mask article the user had put up a section on the talk page to ask for an explanation why his bit on theme had been deleted. Upon to explaining it to him he has decided to prove a point by deleting all of these sorts of things. So I apologise for all the inconvenience this is causing Agent452 (talk) 23:52, 23 December 2007 (UTC)
