Christmas Message

I've changed the date the Xmas message was broadcast from 27 December to 25 December as I remember having trouble on Christmas Day taping both the C4 message and the E4 Fonejacker message.--gottago 12:10, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Fonejacker e4.jpg

Image:Fonejacker e4.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 Wikipedia: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. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BetacommandBot 05:11, 16 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mike

Mike has an Irish accent, please stop changing it!!! He has the exact same accent as Louis Walsh. — AnemoneProjectors (会話) 23:38, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. ZeroP^~(talk) 13:28, 27 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

it sounds scottish to me - chris 19:33 13 october 2007

Are you sure you know what a Scottish accent sounds like? — AnemoneProjectors (会話) 20:03, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

well iam irish - chris 22:03 20 october 2007 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.3.250.229 (talk) 21:04, 20 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mike is Irish. Any fan of Fonejacker who has the DVD should know this. It clearly states under the menu "Extras" - "Characters" on the DVD that his name is 'Irish Mike'. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 157.190.84.150 (talk) 09:55, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The official website is now e4.com/fonejacker - I changed this, but someone has reverted it to the old, incorrect url at channel4.com. Can someone please change this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.244.197.164 (talk) 10:33, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Is this appropriate viewing? I think nuisance calls are illegal... A good-humoured prank is not the same as anonymous mask-wearing nuisance calls... Not harmless fun, very illegal... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C4:A2F:901:C5F8:5590:FCEB:C043 (talk) 23:29, 3 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rings

Is it worth somewhere mentioning (though not necessarily listing) the depiction of rings (ie boxing ring, nipple ring, lifesaving ring) that come up when one hears the phone ring? TimothyJacobson (talk) 17:12, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Reversion of edits - episode 2.1

I have reverted a reversion made by Senator Palpatine for episode 2.1 to those made by myself (87.114.165.149). I dont know if this was done mistakenly or not. There were a few missing sketches in the previous entry since the show had been broadcast only a couple of days before so the episode info was incomplete. I also put the sketches into the correct order as they were broadcast on E4. I also added George's surname "Agdgdgwngo" in a second minor edit to be more specific, especially to any reader who only reads that part of the page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.114.165.149 (talk) 15:59, 20 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestions for new Wiki pages page

I started a clean up and slight-edit (can justify any changes if requested), as well as separating recurring characters from (so far) one-off characters because I feel this could be useful if someone is trying to chase up more information on a character inan episode they saw and need to know if more appearances actually exist. I am wondering however (if only because the page is looking messy currently) if it is worth dedicating a new page to characters, and yet another page to episode descriptions. Then anecdotes currently in the synposis (such as who Terry Tibbs lives with) can go on the appropriate page. TimothyJacobson (talk) 17:12, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Iraqi man's name

I believe the Iraqi man's name is Ali. He mentions it when he quotes "Colonel Sanders" saying "You want to join army, Ali?" -- Zyido (talk) 18:47, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Plans for fourth season

Sourcing the lack of plans for the fourth season to DVD commentary is not exactly canonical. It would be more traditional to cite a granite slab, or -- if nothing else would do --, at least a papyrus scroll. However, the Wikipedia policies do not prescribe what kind of medium is to be used for the source. I believe that the reference meets the criterion of WP:V, and in its context, it stands to reason that Novak would know about his plans (or certainty of them), so he's a reasonably reliable source here. Finally, the tidbit does not run awry WP:NPOV. I believe this means there is no reason to keep it out. The uncertainty part is a bit uncertain, however; it is likely that there will soon be a better source on whether a fourth season will come or not, and then, the encyclopædic approach would be to replace the current tidbit with the better knowledge.

By the way, the place for requesting third opinion isn't really WP:AN, it's WP:3O. Διγουρεν_{Εμπρος!} 20:12, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
