Why were my comments deleted?

Fritz Saalfeld I know what the talk wiki is for i am not an alien from mars were i guess there is no wikipedia. There is nothing wrong with the article on Saber Rider and the star sheriffs that is why I made no comment about it. I do not think it is fair for you to delete my comments yet you have not made any contribution to the talk page. So there you have it now may i please put back my contributions. I saw your wikipage and your photos rock man. Thanks.--Saberworks 15:32, 18 January 2006 (UTC).[reply]

Well, I deleted your comments (before and again just now), because, as I stated, they were about the subject of the article, not the article itself, and Wiki simply isn't the place for such discussion (If you look around other pages, you'll see that such comments are deleted from talkpages on other articles as well. I did however leave your remark about missing images). If you knew these rules, as you said you did, I can't see why you put those comments here in the first place, there are enough fanpages for such discussions. --Fritz S. (Talk) 16:02, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

There are not enough photos on the page, for intance there should be a photo for each of the characters.--Saberworks 16:12, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I get the picture Fritz, i am workin on better contributions. --Saberworks 16:12, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Great. As for missing images, I'll try to add some screenshots from the DVDs later. --Fritz S. (Talk) 16:15, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I now added some screenshots. I didn't add any for Saber Rider, Colt or Fireball, yet, because I wasn't sure if you'd prefer them in their uniforms with their helmets on, or without? --Fritz S. (Talk) 15:50, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fritz coul you also add a photo for the robotic horse Steed. Can you please post pictures without the helmets like head shots of the characters--Saberworks 11:49, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Translation of the German article?

Seems to be a translation of the German wiki article "Saber Rider" written by me. Makes me very proud! Because normally it's the other way round. ;-)

Correct Japanese titles?

I just had a look at the Japanese Wikipedia article and some of the episode titles differ from the titles given here... (Ep. #8 (Japanese #4), for example)... Anybody know where these are taken from (apparently from the German Wiki article, but where did that get them?).

I checked because I was starting to change the table format like this:

US#	JP#	Title (Japanese title in parenthesis)	Original US airdate
01.	01.	"Star Sheriff Round Up" (宇宙の冒険野郎 Uchū no bōkenyarō)	September 14, 1987
04.	02.	"Iguana Get To Know You" (俺とあいつとあの野郎 Ore to aitsu to ano yarō)	September 17, 1987
07.	03.	"Little Partner" (小さな名保安官 Chisana nahoankan)	September 22, 1987

--Fritz S. (Talk) 14:26, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I got it from www.zeichentrickserien.de. So if it's incorrect, it's their fault ;-) --Hattakiri 23:49, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Did some checking and it looks like 14 & 15 and 39 & 40 were switched on the Japanese DVD Box Set release. So I fixed it so the correct romanization goes with the original Japanese (they were switched) and fixed it to agree with the list on the site Hattakiri posted.--Hespers 10:40, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If anyone can get a hold of WEP to verify information the email address is wep@wep.com or Tiffany@koplar.com. Plus I think the actors who voiced the characters need verification.

Move 'em out voice

I was watching a clip of Saber Rider at Youtube. I heard the "voice" that said "Head 'em up, move 'em out!" and "Power Stride, and ready to ride!" I think the voice is Peter Cullen, the English voice of Optimus Prime from Transformers. Can you click on this link and check if I'm right? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aURuEXO3qw --BigMac1212 21:31, 29 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Dale Schacker

You really should add a line about Dale Schacker, the creator of the soundtrack. --Con^structor 06:46, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cast List

Pat Fraley does Fireball's voice. I still have no idea if he also does Colt's voice or whether Rob Paulsen also does Saber's voice or who Townsend Coleman even voices, but Pat Fraley = Fireball. I am 100% certain. If anyone's seen G.I. Joe, he plays "Ace" and it's the same voice.--Hespers 02:07, 23 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Dale Schacker

I did my best regarding the music (held my horses to not to sound like a fanboy), hopefully the Music section complies with the "sound" of Wikipedia. Please post suggestions if something isn't right. --anonymous 89.173.120.112 13:59, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The entire article needs to be put in the present tense

I'm too lazy to do it though. --AnY FOUR! (talk) 02:45, 30 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Also could someone do a redirect for 'sabre rider' please? I don't know how. 125.236.180.71 (talk) 15:15, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

THIS NEEDS TO BE merged with Bismark (anime)

And this is the reasons: 1, it could confused the two topics apart even thought they're BOTH the same series. 2, it has confusing issues between episodes of both Japanese and English version. And 3, it is really better if we combine two terminologies together.

Face it, it's TOO Confusing.User:Blackgaia02 (talk) 17:50, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a precedent Battle of the planets is an adaptation of Gatchaman, Voltron is an adaptation of Go Lion why is the concept that Saber riders is a western adaptation of a Japanese show so hard for you to grasp? Dwanyewest (talk) 10:05, 12 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since the US and Japanese versions have each diffrent episodes it is better to keep them seperate and just list off the diffrences as is currently shown. I would though like to see a section in the article explaining what the new episodes were and how they came about. Omega2064 (talk) 11:03, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of the Interactive Toy line?

I do not see any mention of this in the wiki entry. Saber Rider premiered by being touted as one of the new interactive cartoons and featured a shooter game simmilar to Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future. When it played locally where I lived there would be prompts during the episodes to blast the Outriders. The following was an article in Time Magazine circa 1987 on Captain Power and simmilar interactives.

"Another competitor will be World Events Productions of St. Louis, which is developing interactive toys to accompany Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs. The show features a crew of outer-space cowpokes whose posse youngsters can join by aiming a six-gun "vaporizer."

Time Magazine has a recap of the article at the following site it appears. http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,963516,00.html#ixzz1RytoqqsE Omega2064 (talk) 10:56, 13 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Found more refferences AND the company that made the interactive toys for it. So yes. It was produced.

Ted’s company, World Events Productions, went on to produce Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs, which was the first to feature VEIL technology, allowing children to interact with the show using a handheld toy.

Which Broadcasters?

Does anyone have any third person information to verify the channels Saber Rider was Broadcast on as it is un sourced information. Dwanyewest (talk) 02:42, 19 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Louvre?

Were April and Commander Eagle really called Louvre in Japan? Louvre is spelled ルーヴル Rūvuru in Japanese. However, their name is ルヴェール Ruvēru (different emphasis, different vowel), which is a common (though probably incorrect) way of transliterating Le Vert or Le Velle. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nabuking (talk • contribs) 11:19, 23 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
