Talk:Lostfan108

From Lostpedia

I thought he deserved his own page. Lostfan108 pissed off TPTB and that is pretty huge! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Iamthatdizzy (talkcontribs), 00:33, 31 May 2007 (UTC).

Nomination for deletion

  • Delete: Someone who ruined the finale of Lost and spoiled the fun of it doesn't deserve to have an article here.--Berethor222 20:29, 30 May 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep: On the contrary - if he didn't have his own article, I never would've known who leaked the spoilers. Keep 'im here as a warning to others - "if you want to avoid spoilers, don't visit any blogs maintained by this guy." 'cause now I'll make sure not to in the future. --Shodan1138 20:48, 30 May 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep:I think we should keep this article. It would explain WHY the exec. producers wont talk about the upcoming season. That is why they are calling it "Radio Silence." Say good bye to any hope for a Haitus Podcast or ANY information from they about the next season... It was because of lostfan108's spoilers! We can't just have some little blurp and say "...because of some guy's spoilers TPTB wouldn't talk about S4 until..." when we know WHO did it...--Iamthatdizzy 22:45, 30 May 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep: Lost fanatics who become as famous or infamous as this guy or gal has, warrant an article. Not many of us can actually lay claim to pissing off TPTB or altering their behaviour--Kivipat
Yikes! I've just had another thought - see Other
  • Keep: A good warning to all, if you ask me. -- Blackannis 00:57, 31 May 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep: definitely Keep. The writing needs work in order to make it more in keeping with the style of the wiki but lostfan108 is, unfortunately, one of the most significant "fans" in the history of the show. I appreciate the top comment in the delete section which says that he doesn't deserve his own entry but he's significant to the show's history. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Pennyj (talkcontribs), 13:13, 31 May 2007 (UTC).
  • Delete: This article is really unimportant, and those who are angry don't need to read the insiderscoops and spoil themselves an episode. EXCALIBUR
  • Keep: We have to know our history if we are destined not to repeat it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Rwcmick (talkcontribs), 06:28, 1 June 2007 (UTC).
  • Keep, but wikify/improve article. As per all else, this is part of Lost history. Besides, it gives us more to discuss than just the show and media. --Aero*Zeppelin 23:40, 31 May 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep: I had no idea what/who lostfan108 was, so I looked it up on this site. Quick find. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Knup36 (talkcontribs), 02:05, 5 June 2007 (UTC).

Other

  • Since we really don't know anthing about the fan, I think that an article on the controversy itself - that which has been dubbed Spoilergate - might be more appropriate--Kivipat
  • If I knew how to change the name of the article I would be glad to :)--Iamthatdizzy 00:25, 2 June 2007 (PDT)

Possible Lostpedia Account

I don't know what everyone else thinks, but a Lostpedia user by the name of Lostfan108, made two contributions in December. --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 11:20, 8 June 2007 (PDT)

Well its not exactly an uncommon username idea, but I guess if we can track IPs that far back server side, it might be something for ABC's witch-hunt investigation lol. --Nickb123 (Talk) 13:22, 8 June 2007 (PDT)


Merge

I didn't nominate this but I agree with a merge into the Dark UFO article. Merge --Nickb123 (Talk) 15:20, 19 June 2007 (PDT)

  • Merge I agree, as this seems to be the likely alternative. --Marik7772003 15:26, 19 June 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep Important part of Lost fan culture. --Blueeagleislander 00:36, 22 June 2007 (PDT)
  • Keep It's important enough for it's own article. A sub section on the entry for Dark may be good but I think Lostfan108 needs his own page.
  • Keep I think what lostfan108 did was change the way we will find out anything about the final seasons of lost! He should keep seperate from DarkUFO's page for the risk of tarnishing Dark's web site! Iamthatdizzy 22:16, 5 July 2007 (PDT)
  • Merge - Speaking with other blogs, Lostfan108 apparently approached them. The significance of the spoilers is that a blog agreed to publish them; to me the spoiler goes hand in hand with both the source and the publishing blog. Merge. If this source begins to have significant activity by publishing in other blogs, then we may revisit the issue; however at the moment the significance is the spoiler, and DarkUFO published it. -- Contrib¯ _Santa_ ¯  Talk  22:44, 6 July 2007 (PDT)
  • Merge - EXCALIBUR
  • Rename to Spoilergate --Mr. Crabby (Talk) 11:44, 26 July 2007 (PDT)
  • Merge I dont think Lostfan108 deserves the recognition of an article in his name. Its at least partly down to him that we have total radio silence and wont get the juicy morsels we have been used to between seasons. We should however remember who is responsible and not forget the event --Hotgirl 17:00, 28 July 2007 (PDT)
Merged --Nickb123 (Talk) 14:09, 1 August 2007 (PDT)
