Talk:Amid Halebi

Engineer

• I haven't actually seen the episode yet, but did someone in the episode actually refer to him as "The Engineer?" If so, shouldn't The Engineer be the canonical name for this article? (Admin 14:47, 15 November 2006 (EST))
  • The other terrorists say he's an engineer, not the engineer. IIRC, the cops call him "the engineer", though. Going with our "easiest to use in a sentence" policy, I thought we ought to make them "Engineer" and "Exterminator". That we, we can link to the engineer and the exterminator without any stray capitals.--Hardvice (talk) 15:26, 15 November 2006 (EST)
    • Ok, gotcha. Makes sense. (Admin 15:52, 15 November 2006 (EST))
      • I have not seen the long version of the premier, but in the official series, it seemed like Ted was made out to be a X-Ray Machine Technician. Since my brother's in-law does this as a living, it would make sense that an electrical engineer (career) would have to tweak some of the parts during installation to make sure the device is working. Other than that, The Engineer appears often in 9thwonders.com in conversation. --Orne 16:30, 15 November 2006 (EST)
        • BTW, if anybody tracks down the long version anywhere, I'd love to know. I haven't seen it since Nerd Prom and the details are pretty sketchy. As far as I know, it hasn't been leaked anywhere, though.--Hardvice (talk) 16:53, 15 November 2006 (EST)

Amid Halebi

Is his name being Amid Halebi considered canon? Does In His Own Image refer to his by that name? Heroe!(talk) 14:29, 22 April 2007 (EDT)

• His name was at one time listed in the credits for Genesis at TV.com as "Amid Halebi". It looks like it was removed. I'm not sure I would keep making the Engineer and Amid synonymous, but perhaps keep it as a note. In fact, I'm personally in favor of removing any links that connect the two. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 14:38, 22 April 2007 (EDT)
  • Kring has confirmed Omid Abtahi's character as being named Amid Halebi.[1] --Cylon 21:18, 31 May 2007 (EDT)
