Race. Ethnicity and Nationality in character profiles

I'td be a good idea to have characters listed with their race, ethnicity and nationality. InuYoshi 18:21, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Are you suggesting a category for the characters to be placed in? Or a page with a list of all the characters of a certian ethnicity/nationality? --SignorSimon (talk/contribs/email) 19:14, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

no, put the info on the profile box—The preceding unsigned comment was added by InuYoshi on 16:01, 2009 January 2

Race is already obvious from the picture each character has, and specific ethnicity information is in most cases impossible to source in-universe since only a few have been mentioned specifically. A few were Arabs, Brits, Turks, Russians, and Chinese... but most other groups like Bierko and his men are from an unspecified country in Central Asia, and no countries were ever given for the Middle Eastern terrorists in Day 2. This means that there will be a wide-ranging gap for the completeness of the information, and most characters will not have an ethnicity and many will be without a country.
We used to have an "alliance" area in the profile box, but this was rejected for similar reasons. Blue Rook  talk  contribs 20:17, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

transcripts

i was wondering if we could have a section of transcripts for all the episodes 64.222.115.10 16:06, 16 March 2008 (UTC)

That would be good, if we could get them. Like on [[1]] where they have the transcript from a link on the sidebar. I have a few on my site (I didn't write them, but I'm happy for them to be used), but I guess someone will have to do the rest. The ones on my site are [[2]]
This site ... [3] has some 24 transcripts.2Anthony4

Nina's CTU

On the "Counter Terrorist Unit" Page it doesn't mention the CTU Branch that Nina Myers mentions to Teri Bauer in episode 24 of Day 1.I can't remember it can sombody find out and update the page.--81.132.127.53 18:58, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

You're right, she said "Frankfurt Division." But, according to the information I'm familiar with, we can't be sure if she was lying or not. Also, it probably wasn't CTU since CTU seems to be domestically-based. If she wasn't lying, it might have been CIA? We'd have to figure this out before we posted anything. Let me know if you turn up anything else related to this. – Blue Rook 21:30, 6 January 2008 (UTC)talkcontribs

Slang

A 24 slang/jargon section of the website. I have a blog Quixotica dedicated to modern, invented slang. And I recently added my first "24-themed" word, "Bauer It." As in, "He Bauer-ed it." Anyhow, here's a link:

Let me knwo what you think—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Uvadavidg

If there is sufficient demand for this, and a good number of commonly used terms, I think we might be able to put a section in the references page or something. My only concern is that I haven't personally heard any such 24-inspired vocabulary yet, and if it was fairly mainstream, it should have come up already. – Blue Rook 21:30, 6 January 2008 (UTC)talkcontribs

Terrorist attacks

Seeing that CTU don't stop all the threats that they face each day, I think there should be a page for terrorist attacks that have actaully occured throughout the seasons. These would only include successful attacks, such as the Virus in the Chandler Plaza Hotel, but not the Nerve Gas attack on the hospital, which was foiled. Each could have a picture, number of fatalities, who was responsible, aftermath etc. For example...

Episode: S01E01. Attack: Explosion on a commercial airliner, resulting in its crash. Attacker: Mandy. Location: Somewhere over the Mojave Desert. Fatalities: About 200 civilians. Reason for Attack: To steal the ID of a man who had access to Senator David Palmer's breakfast speech.

Episode: S05E12. Attack: Release of Sentox VX-1 Nerve Gas. Attacker: Ostroff. Location: CTU Ventilation System, Los Angeles. Fatalities: Edgar Styles, Lynn Mcgill, Harry Swinton, 53 CTU Staff. Reason for Attack: To cripple CTU's power to stop further attacks.

Episode: S06E04. Attack: Nuclear Detonation. Attacker: Hussan Numair. Location: Valencia, Los Angeles. Fatalities: Over 12,000 civilians, several CTU Tac-Teams, Ray Wallace, Hassan Numair, Several Terrorists. Reason for Attack: As a last stand when hideout was been raided.

Politics

I think there should be a page for the political scandel that took place before and during Day 1 that involved the Palmers and their associates. Vichy101 13:24, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

Cellphones

Is it possible to create a page on all the cellphones that everyone has or uses at one point or another? It would be quite interesting because I've noticed that some people's cellphones change during a season. Twentyfour mad 10:43, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Contradictions

There should be a page that shows how 24 contradicts with reality, for example: Ronald Reagan is a real President who was mentioned by Aaron Pierce on Day 1, but the show uses fictional Presidents, who was the last President in the 24 universe that existed in reality?

There should be a timeline of American history as it would appear in the 24 world.

Internal Forums

On today's episode of 24, Bill Buchanan told Nadia to tell others about him being fired and leaving CTU as the new acting director because he didn't want people to find out from the internal forums. We need an article for this gossip haven that is accessible from all of CTU's computers! --24.144.146.62 02:20, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Real life events

Hey, I was wondering if a page relating to real life events inspired by 24 have a page or if we could set one up for Project Chloe, the latest in the US Military's counter terrorist measures. I'm only suggesting this because Homeland Secretary Michael Chertoff has openly stated that 24 is his favorite show and that it was named for Chloe O'Brian. Jbond1 02:56, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Well, a note on Chloe's page is probably good enough. I don't know that there's enough noteworthy 24-inspired events out there to warrant its own page, though. --Proudhug 11:51, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
since no one did it as of today, I added a brief note about it to Chloe's page, way down on the bottom under "Background..." --JoeyBags79 04:13, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

Battles

Hi guys. I was looking around at some of the wikis, and I saw that they had battle pages, including who was involved, and what happened. Like on the Star Wars wiki, or the Battlestar Galactica one. I don't mean having a page for the minor skirmishes, but for the some of the major battles I thought it would be cool. For example, Jack's rescue of Teri and Kim in Day 1, the attack on the Russian motorcade in Day 5, and the rescue of James Heller and Audrey Raines in Day 4. I'm gonna test it out on a sandbox page, and I will link to it when I get it done. But tell me what you think. I actually have no idea how to set up templates. Any help, at all, would be bloody brilliant. --Conspiracy Unit 07:24, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

CTU hierarchy

I was wondering if someone could add a page about CTU hierarchy. As of season 6 Bill is in charge than Nadia, but who is senior, Chloe or Milo. Things like that with maybe a table of who was in charge when? -- Solo89

During the six seasons, CTU has jumped all over the place with ranks and hierarchy that it would be very difficult.--CWY2190talkcontribs 22:06, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
•Exactly why i suggested the page :D -- Solo89
I wasn't aware that there was a heirarchy, aside from the "head" people. Everyone has their job in their department. I doubt Chloe or Milo have seniority over the other. --Proudhug 05:18, 14 February 2007 (UTC)
•This only occured to me over the last few episodes, where Milo went and was ordering around Nadia, but at one point I think Bill said Nadia was his second in command (CTULA Chief Of Staff?). It seemed like last season Chloe was Edgar's supervisor but now it seems that Milo is above her and at one point absolved her of her duties when she was distressed over Morris. --Solo89
