Talk:Lockdown (Lost)

Untitled

The two men who were scammed by Anthony were not in the silver Mercedes. Anthony was in the Mercedes at the cemetery, which is how he saw Helen. We never see the mysterious men's car.

Plagarism

A large portion of this article was copied from Lostpedia. It was copied from this page, Blast Door Map. The text was added to Lostpedia on January 3rd, 2007 and it was added on wikipedia on January 19th, 2007. The text of chunk is:

There were at least two types of notations on the map: printed notes in English, which were very factual and seemingly informed; and Latin-language notes in a cursive hand, which were more observational and speculative — even philosophical. Beneath the writings and drawings was a topographical map. The hidden map shows the location of six stations (with a seventh scratched out), all "pointing" to the center of the Island, represented on the map by a large question mark. Four of the bunkers have both graphics and text identifiers, apparently their respective names and logos; the two remaining have no titles, and their icons are difficult to decipher. The named stations listed on the hidden map are, counter-clockwise: the Arrow, the scratched out station, the Staff, the Flame, the Swan, unknown and unknown. The central location, indicated by the question mark was revealed to be the Pearl in episode "?". This is a viewing station to view those in action at the Swan, and possibly other stations around the Island. There are numerous handwritten notations on the blast door map. They are written in several scripts, suggesting multiple contributors. The notes can be grouped into four general categories, English commentary, Latin Commentary, Mathematical Equations, and single object labels (the Swan, the Flame, CVIII, ect). The Latin phrases appear to be more of a running commentary than insightful notations about the map. By contrast, the majority of the notations written in English address the various stations, a cryptic incident, possible shutdowns, a Cerberus system, a DharmaTel network, scientific equations, and zoological research. Found on the blast door map are several equations, both mathematical and scientific, written as additional notations to the diagram. Three trigonometric equations are located in the top left-hand corner of the blast door map, two calculus problems appear to be engineering/physics equations related to magnetics, two derived values are found at the far right of the map, and other various mathematical equations are spread throughout it. There are several notations on the hidden map that appear to be dates which use a month/day/year format. Some appear to indicate a "shutdown" occurred. What was shut down and why it was shutdown are unknown. There is another date reference to a zoological research facility and a reference to something called an AH/MDG incident of 1985

The history can be found here for wikipedia and here for Lostpedia. Would someone please change the article to avoid the plagiarism. Thanks -Mr.Leaf67 00:15, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Map?

Can somebody add a picture of Henry's map? It has some odd letters on it, I think.--24.175.38.166 20:45, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Nadia

It might bear mentioning in the article that in the flashback where Locke is working, the woman he speaks to, who owns the house, is Nadia, the woman Sayid has been looking for. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.219.233.122 (talk) 06:54, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

• I have integrated that into the section "Flashbacks". QuidProQuo23 (talk) 16:42, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Wikify?

Is it still necessary to have the Wikify tag on the top of the "Plot" section? If no one disagrees with me, then I will remove it soon. QuidProQuo23 (talk) 16:52, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
