Talk:Kevin Smith

How is this not a spoiler article? I'm sure there's plently of people who don't know Kevin Smith is directing the first episode of Origins. --Hero!^(talk)_(contribs) 19:49, 19 September 2007 (EDT)

• A spoiler gives away information specific to the plot of an episode. Information about the existence of an episode or about the production of an episode can't be a spoiler if it contains no information about the plot itself as there's nothing to spoil. Spoilers need to mention characters or events taking place within the world of the episode. (Admin 19:52, 19 September 2007 (EDT))
• What Admin said. This is a good point to make, actually: actor pages are spoilers, because they mention characters or situations which haven't been seen yet. Directors are not spoilers. Now, if this page said "Kevin will be directing the first episode of Heroes Origins, which tells the story of a woman who discovers she possesses the power of intuitive flatulence, then that would be a spoiler.--Hardvice (talk) 20:51, 19 September 2007 (EDT)

AFD?

Its not a bad article and we may need it in the future depending on this damn strike. I added the tag, but I still think keep it. ---- 17:30, 9 December 2007 (EST)

• Tim Kring talked about Origins quite a bit during the last episode of The Post Show (including that the meaning of the Symbol would be revealed in the first episode). He didn't say that Origins would come back, but iirc, he didn't say it wouldn't come back either. Let's wait to see what happens in the weeks following the end of the strike. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 18:43, 9 December 2007 (EST)
  • Yeah, I agree it should be kept.--MiamiVolts (talk) 18:57, 9 December 2007 (EST)
    • Ahh, when Tim Kring said the Symbol was gonna have its meaning explained in the Origins pilot, my hate for the strike just shot through the roof. D: --NellaBishop 01:05, 10 December 2007 (EST)
      • Unfortunately, Origins was already pulled from the lineup even before the strike began.--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:08, 10 December 2007 (EST)
        • I would much rather move it into a space (like my little file) that is not the mainspace than have it deleted. That way, we can just move it back if Smith does do an episode of Origins, and we wont have to create this article from scratch. --SacValleyDweller (talk) 01:49, 18 January 2008 (EST)
          • Just to let you know, administrators have the capability of "undeleting" a deleted article. In other words, we wouldn't have to create anything from scratch just because it's deleted. If you ever wanted content from a deleted article, just ask an administrator. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:12, 18 January 2008 (EST)
• Keep it. There was news long ago about the idea of Kevin writing and directing the episode and people might still search for information on Kevin here as a result. It's good in its current form where it explains that the announcement long ago is now up in the air pending the final outcome of Origins. (Admin 02:00, 18 January 2008 (EST))
  • Agree. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:12, 18 January 2008 (EST)
  • same sign --SacValleyDweller (talk) 02:30, 18 January 2008 (EST)
• Why is this article still up? It should be deleted by now. --Pinkkeith 10:28, 25 September 2008 (EDT)
