What I Did Here[edit]

I deleted the expanded overview as blow-by-blow accounts of the plot violate copyright. I kept the trivia section in this one as, though I am unfamilar with the facts in said section, they seem muy noteable (for once) and if confirmed and sourced up, should be in the article.

Removed[edit]

"When Buffy, Spike and Principal Wood are driving to the school to rescue Xander, and Spike is in the back seat, Principal Wood looks in the car mirror to Spike and sees him[citation needed] as he doesn't remark on the lack of reflection. He only discovers Spike is a vampire in the next scene. Vampires do not have reflections."

This is just wrong. The original author of this comment misunderstood the episode. There is no POV shot of the mirror. We do not see what Wood sees, thus it's probable that he is realizing there's no reflection of Spike in the mirror -- hence his obvious suspicion in the car. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.143.131.114 (talk) 13:06, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wikinaziism[edit]

Removed the Wikinazi order "trivia sections are discouraged" box. 1. It's just typically wikipedia fascist behavior, and 2. Trivia sections make sense, and are appropriate, in the context of this and other such episode guides. It is a valid and useful way of organizing such data in this context. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.143.131.114 (talk) 13:12, 15 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please assume good faith regarding the edits made by other people. Lots42 (talk) 05:45, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I moved most of the "Trivia" to "Continuity". Deleted a couple that really were trivial. Barsoomian (talk) 08:44, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Buffy714.jpg[edit]

Image:Buffy714.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.

Cantonese[edit]

Why can't someone from Shanghai only speak Cantonese? Lots42 (talk) 11:49, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

In Shanghai most people speak Shanghainese and Mandarin. Everyone who goes to school in China now learns Mandarin So Giles should have been able to speak to her if he did actually speak Mandarin. Her Cantonese is strangely accented though, certainly not like Hong Kong Cantonese. Barsoomian (talk) 08:48, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
