Revision as of 08:22, 19 December 2007

Anyone has a list of SUVs used by Jack Bauer available??? boris@suchantke.de

I wouldn't do anything about it, since it isn't "specifically" mentioned in the show which SUVs CTU uses. Proudhug would probably just delete it. EVILjbf 05:41, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

I would nominate such a page for deletion too, because then someone would start a list of non-SUV vehicles that Jack used... which would be precedent for a list of how many episodes Jack did or didn't drive in a vehicle... next would come the types of cell phones he's used... etc. People would claim precedent for all kinds of lists that they made or want to see made into encyclopedia articles.

There are an infinite number of these kind of lists, but unless there is a considerable demand for it (like Jack's weapons, Jack's kills, or the list of female villains), or it's actually significant to the show (the various Unnamed characters), it needs to be regulated. Those are the permissible and widely accepted ones, but the rest need to be fairly closely scrutinized lest we wind up with sprawling, insignificant lists of material that would become highly difficult to verify. – Blue Rook 08:22, 19 December 2007 (UTC)_talkcontribs
