Talk:List of Commander in Chief episodes

can someone tell me why in the episode "no nukes is good nukes", does the TV footage of DMZ troops include a flag of both south korea and what seems like the IRAQI (?!) flag?

Apparent plagiarism
Compare the summary on ABC.com about "State of the Unions" to the one in the article:

ABC.com: "While Mac prepares to deliver her first State of the Union Address, Rod, out solo at a reception, winds up in a compromising position with an intern… while the cameras flash. An incriminating photo ends up on the cover of the papers the next day, humiliating Mac and threatening to overshadow her State of the Union. Meanwhile, Templeton sets out to sabotage Mac's Homeless Initiative Bill, forcing her to play political hardball in return."

The article: "While out solo at a reception as Mac works on her upcoming State of the Union Address, Rod seemingly has too much to drink and winds up in a compromising position with an intern and with cameras flashing. An incriminating photo ends up on the cover of the papers the next day, humiliating an incredulous Mac and threatening to publicly and politically damage her image. Meanwhile, Templeton sets out to sabotage Mac's Homeless Initiative Bill, forcing her to play political hardball in return. And Dickie and Jayne - who is now back as Templeton's chief of staff - go to dinner in an effort to pick the other adversary's brain, and end up spending the night together."

I think there needs to be a serious rewrite of this summary (and possibly others). 24.245.44.227 00:30, 11 April 2006 (UTC)


 * If you list where it came from, then its not considered plagiarism. Such as the source of the summary. Sfufan2005 00:42, 11 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Actually, it is considered plagiarism. You cannot take a slab of text from one site and whack it up on another without permission, unless it is freely licensed, which is not the case here. If this is not cleaned up, I'll nominate the article for deletion on these grounds. Rebecca 08:51, 21 June 2006 (UTC)


 * Well, then someone needs to put ABC.com as a source in the article. Listing it as original research or writing and not explicity listing the source is still plagiarism in my book. 24.245.44.227 00:09, 12 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Whoops, I just saw the changes in the history. Never mind and thanks for listening, Sfufan2005! 24.245.44.227 00:46, 12 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Alright, I have reworded the suspected synopses and ensure that this page no longer contains any more plagiarized synopses. I hope that it is satisfactory. Sfufan2005 17:35, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

SK/Iraqi flag question
I noticed that too. South Korea has a troop contingent deployed as part of the coaltion forces in Iraq. That could be the explanation, that the footage was taken of a joint SK/ISF base. In that case, it is a mistake by the makers of the show, accidently using footage of SK forces in Iraq rather than footage of SK forces in Korea.

Fair use rationale for Image:Commander logo.jpg
Image:Commander logo.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 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.

Inaccuracies in the Episode Guide
I noticed to things that contradict each other in the episode guide.

1) Toward the end of the article it says 23 episodes were made, but the last 6 were not aired. If you add the number of episodes aired (which is 18) with the unaired that would be 24. So either there were 5 unaired episodes for a total of 23 or 6 unaired episodes for a total of 24.

2) In the episode guide for Little Shop of Horace (which was unaired) the person who wrote it said that the character Dickey suggested that the president fire the entire cabinet and bring in her own people. The problem with this is that Dickey was himself fired in episode 18.

If someone rewrites this, they should look into these inaccuracies and see if they can fix them. Davidpdx (talk) 10:25, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

I was just browsing around the net and found out there were indeed five unaired episodes (which takes care of #1) and that the five unaired episodes were not a continuation of the story, but were unaired due to story changes (which takes care of #2 above). The problem though is I can not find any verifiable source, so most of this is just hearsay. My advice is if someone can find sources and correct it, it would help a great deal in terms of the confusion. Davidpdx (talk) 10:42, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
