Earth 2 talk:Community Portal

This is the general discussion page for the wiki! New founders should leave a nice welcome message and encourage new visitors and editors to leave a note to get the conversation started.

This Earth 2-specific wiki was created to stand apart from the official Wikipedia entry at that site. It was once an informative entry in Wikipedia with a cast list, an episode list, links to fan fites, and other information. Much of this has been deleted by who knows for whatever reason. At this site only two request are made of the fans who contibute: 1) Sign your articles so everyone knows who wrote what. 2) Please don't delete any article without asking permission of the author first or coming to this community and discussing it with others first. I mentioned when I requested this wiki for Earth 2 that deletion of articles is a problem with the larger WP entry. As the rules say, I don't own this wiki - we all do - but I will do everything I can as the creator/requestor to keep anyone from trying to take over the site and delete information for no given reason. It's been almost fifteen years since the show came and went, there is no longer an official website for the show and other than the recent release of the DVD set, the creators, producers and license owners have made no move to prevent fans from keeping the fandom for the show alive and well through web pages and fan fiction. We have a chance to make a nice, little encyclopedia of fan knowledge about the show, and I will fight long and hard to keep it intact and growing.

Can we write about our favorite characters? I play Julia in an RPG because she was my favorite character. Can we write character essays based on information from the TV series and from magazine interviews? I understand what you mean by saying there are no official sites to go to for information anymore so I assume the DVDs are our sources. I hope I do this tildes thing right.

I hope everything is this easy to figure out. I can add a post here by editing or add it separately under my own name too. I have an episode list that I made a while back just to have on my computer when I'm attempting a fan fic. I'm going to add a synopsis to each and see if I can add it here. Essays can be fun. Our own take on the characters. We need a cast list too with short descriptions. How about links to news about what the actors are up to now? I saw some great pictures of Clancy Brown and his family recently at a premiere. He did the voice for an animated character in a movie.
