Sci Fi Channel (United States)

Seeing as the article has had its ups and downs, I was wondering what means to which can Sci Fi Channel (United States) be improved and strengthened. DrWho42 06:37, 19 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It looks decent, albeit a bit sparce in places. Here's a few (hopefully useful) comments:
  • The introduction is too brief. I'd suggest another paragraph at least.
  • The article could mention some previous successful and long-running shows such as Andromeda (TV series) and LEXX. It could also mention MST3K and their relatively successful TV series Dune (TV miniseries) and Children of Dune (TV miniseries).
  • $1 should be linked to United States dollar. Other nations use the dollar sign for their own currency.
  • The "Farscape and cancellation controversy" section needs sources.
  • I don't see why the trivia section couldn't be worked into the main text.
  • I'd like to see some criticism of the channel's made-for-TV movies which have become almost a cliché for really bad Sci-Fi movies in some circles.
Thanks! — RJH (talk) 15:06, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Intro should be expanded to summarize the article per WP:INTRO. Footnotes should be after punctuation with no spaces before or in between footnotes per WP:FOOT. Include triva into body of article in paragraph format per WP:AVTRIV. Group the hoaxes / controversies under another heading such as "Controversy". "See Also" goes before "References" that might be better named "Notes" per WP:GTL. On a personal question - Where is HD SciFi in the U.S.! Morphh (talk) 17:26, 4 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
