Obsessive wiki-fying?[edit]

The summary of this article seems somewhat...obsessive in its wiki-ness. "Lost" "pair"? "Communication"? Daydream believer2 08:55, 1 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Accurate observations?[edit]

This article, as most of the Sopranos articles I've read in my episode-by-episode wiki reading from the beginning of season 2, seems to be full of misrepresentation, full of knowledge from other episodes, and overall needing some work. Don't get me wrong, it is very good work, but I still think it needs a lot of work to more accurately represent the episode "The Pine Barrens".

Some examples: the misunderstanding attributed to poor cellphone reception has been quoted by the show's creators as signifying their lack of intelligence, rather than due to a misunderstanding based on the reception. Also, only Christopher was laughing during their confrontation, not both as was represented in the article. Jackie Jr. hadn't "not made any new dates" but rather specifically canceled a planned date. Stuff like this, while minor, seems to be rather rampant throughout this and most other sopranos episodes' wiki pages and as a whole, tends to really misrepresent the episodes. I would recommend cleaning up the articles to help better reflect what happened in the show. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.33.6.215 (talk) 18:14, 7 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Sopranos ep311.jpg[edit]

Image:Sopranos ep311.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 this Wikipedia article 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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Paulie's car[edit]

I want to make it more explicit they they consider Paulie's car "stolen", but can't remember the scene without possibly going into original research by saying this suggests Valery stole it. Can anyone make this more explicit in the synopsis? MartinSFSA (talk) 12:41, 8 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Introductory Paragraph[edit]

There has been a little doing and undoing about this sentence: "It is widely regarded as one of the greatest episodes in the history of television."

I am going to remove it so that the intro paragraph follows the same pattern as all the others in the Sopranos episode articles. They contain only some basic, measurable, information.

There is a section "Accolades" later in the article. April 31st (talk) 09:11, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The argument doesn't make sense. This is regarded as one of the best television episodes ever. The other episodes are not. Therefore it gets to be mentioned here. It doesn't get to be mentioned in the other episodes because they aren't the greatest episodes ever. It's important information about this episode that does not apply to other episodes... See how this works? You will also note that on the page for The Sopranos it says that it is widely regarded as the greatest TV show of all time. Other TV shows don't say that in their lede because they are *not* regarded as the greatest TV show of all time. Important info goes in the lede. Bueller 007 (talk) 13:31, 12 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
