The section for the episode Mandatory Minimums is about 6 and a half pages long. I think this needs to be edited down so it's about the same size as other episodes' sections. 66.41.213.24 15:57, 26 December 2006 (UTC)

I have transcribed what the Priest said in the episode Requiem. It is 411 words. I am not sure if it is appropriate to include it or not, given its length. I am new to wikiquotes. Could someone please advise?

Take Out the Trash Day

In "Take Out the Trash Day", I'm removing the first quote, since it is included in the third one. If anyone sees it different don't hesitate to contact me --Aljimmix 15:39, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Good catch - it's always good when we can trim this page since it is so large. ~ UDScott 16:16, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

Character Links

If we're going to link to character pages, it seems like there should just be a list somewhere on the page instead of randomly tagging different quotes. ~ Kingdok 20:28, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Actually the convention is to use the character links for the first time (per episode) a character appears in the list of quotes. That way, if a user is looking at a given episode, they do not have to search in the page for a list of character links, but instead can go right from there. At the same time, the link is not needed for every instance of that character speaking in the episode since that would be redundant. ~ UDScott 20:44, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

I dislike that convention. ~ Kingdok 22:28, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

Pilot

How can you miss the "30 second hypothetical" back and forth between Leo and Josh or Toby's "I agree with Josh, I agree with CJ and I agree with Sam" line?

Quote limit per episode

As part of the Wikiquote:Copyright Cleanup Project to avoid violation of copyright laws, this article has been trimmed to its limit of no more than 5 medium-sized quotes per hour-long episode. If you would like to add another quote to an existing episode with 5 quotes, you must first remove one from that episode. Additions for new episodes should follow these guidelines. Please see Wikiquote:Limits on quotations for more information. ~ UDScott 22:17, 26 December 2008 (UTC)

Should we split the page?

At present, the page is pretty large as is, and being a series with seven seasons, I feel it would be best that each season be split into its own article. Furthermore, Wikipedia split the seasons into their own articles. 03isrflo62410 (talk) 21:16, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
