Why is the title still Tom (Mr. Friendly)? Wasn't that just what Sawyer called him once? I don't feel characters should have their nicknames in article headings long after their 'real' names have been known. It could easily be stated in the article that he was known as M.Friendly before anyone knew his actual name, but putting it in the heading seems silly. anyone?


I agree completely; Ben's article header no longer contains "Henry Gale" when, if anything, there is a stronger argument for keeping it there (it was an actual name he used, albeit as an alias). Real names only, I concur. (Sawyer is a permanently adopted name, before anyone gets to nitpicking!). ThirdMan 22:19, 16 March 2007 (PDT)

WARNING - Too many contributions about Tom's sexuality could become a huge distraction and might be offensive to some. We wouldn't allow racial slurs about characters or speculate that certain characters like fried chicken because of their racial heritage. The same respect should be given to all.

I deleted that user's little fanfic about Tom and Ethan once already, but that edit seems to have been reverted. I don't think it even warrants discussion that it should be deleted. Funny that it simultaneously posits a fantasy relationship between Tom and a character that has never been suggested by the show to be gay, and calls for the extermination of all gays. I'm not getting into an edit war with this kid, though. Also, spelling. =/ Archaeoptryx 18:15, 23 March 2008 (PDT)
