Talk: Thalia Weaver

Latest revision as of 06:28, 24 July 2014

Journal links[]

They may not be dead, but they don't work for me, and probably not for other people, either. I suspect they're friends-locked, and thus not much use to the general populace. {= (

Um, do we really even need those links? All that drama happened more than a decade ago now, and it frankly seems a little poor to me to still have it linked for anyone to see. I know it's maybe "easy" for me to say so, since I wasn't around back then, and wasn't affected by this emotionally, but . . . imagine Thalia decided to come back for a visit, and saw that our article about her is more than half that one mistake she made as a teenager. Pretty embarrassing, yeah? Doctorlit (talk) 16:25, July 22, 2014 (UTC)

Two... no, three-faceted response. First... no-one changed them back? Uh, 'kay. Second: yes, it would be embarassing, but... that's what she's famous for in the PPC. Her agent never amounted to much, her OFU is gone, but there's still lots of people (ish) who remember The Thalia Weaver Incident. However, third: I agree that we don't need to link to Cam-and-the-Camettes being angry about it. I'm working on an extended summary (with supporting statements) which might be worth linking to, but not like this. Too many people were way too angry. So I'll remove the links entirely; problem solved. (Oh, and fourth: Thals has way moved on from the PPC. I highly doubt she'll be back) Huinesoron (talk) 06:28, July 24, 2014 (UTC)
