Talk:Middle Ground (The Wire)/to do


 * Work through guests checking profiles
 * Write title reference and epigraph sections
 * Check for first appearances
 * Note that Title's epigraph gives unnecessary and SPOILER information about the barksdale organization's downfall. The viewer has no prior knowledge of this revelation so it is a spoiler.  The basis for that unnecessary revelation is an alternative interpretation of the canon text (written text on the screen, which says "we ain't gotta dream no more"); that alternative reading/interpretation is that the episode's epigraph could mean "we ain't got a dream no more" [sic].  The writer of this epigraph description wrote an unnecessary and almost certainly false statement proclaiming that since the epigraph's title ("we ain't gotta dream no more") COULD be "we ain't got a dream no more" and that since the speaker of this quote gets fatally shot (which was in the episode) began the downfall of the end for the barksdale organization (which ruins untold number of future episodes for the viewer).  I was so upset that someone wrote a bogus interpretation of this title's epigraph - an interpretation which was purely speculative and has no basis in fact - and used that bogus interpretation to SPOIL an ongoing and primary plot line of the series that I immediately stopped reading to register and do this.
