  • Submission Guidelines

    Here are the guidelines you (as submitters) need to know. Biography Place of Birth, Full Name, Birth Name, Date of Birth, Date of Death, Cause of Death, credited Aliases, etc., should all be submitted here rather than as Trivia. A brief Biography should sum up the person's career, haveMore unique content rather then restate material already on the page, and be roughly 50+ words long and contain two or more sentences. Copy / Paste Material As per Terms of Use, all material submitted unless otherwise noted must be the contributor's own content, and stated in their own words. If the bulk of at least one sentence can be found on another site using a search engine, the submission will be rejected. You should provide a specific source for all material. If there is a URL, provide the complete URL (rather than just "wikipedia"). If you don't and staff can't verify the information, your submission may be rejected with a request for the source. Stick to facts about the person's life, not yours or anyone else's opinions. Don't use exclamation marks on Trivia and Biography entries. Alternately, if you're citing a source for a commonly held opinion, provide that source. Vague statements like "People think" or "Critics say" or "They are best known as" are not acceptable. ------------------------- Unacceptable : Frank Jones is the greatest actor of all time! Acceptable : Readers in the March 2005 issue of Entertainment Weekly voted Frank Jones the greatest actor of all time. ------------------------- Movie / TV / Play Titles Movie, TV, and play show titles (and other types of titles as well) must be italicized, bolded, or in quotation marks as per tv.com standards. If one of these formats is already in use on the page, stick with that. Outside of quote identifiers, do not italicize, bold, or otherwise special format names of people, bands, institutes, products, etc. Always assume the reader knows nothing about the person you're writing for and what they've been in. Even if they're in a single show, that may change in the future. ------------------------- Unacceptable : Bob was chosen because he impressed the director with his skills. (Chosen for what? What director? What skills?) Acceptable : Bob was chosen for the role of "Jim Bob" on Who Wants to Be a Pig Farmer? because he impressed director Samantha Smith with his pig-slopping skills. ------------------------- Quotes Quotes should be interesting and give the readers insight about the person's life, values, beliefs, etc. As with Trivia, submitting 20 Quotes is often as bad as submitting none. Ten is typically a good maximum. Quotes can be cut-n-pasted for the purposes of accuracy, and as copyright law does not cover public statements. Q&A-type copyrighted interviews belonging to web sites, magazines, etc., in part or in whole, are not acceptable. Wholesale cut-n-paste from another site's copyrighted database in any number is not acceptable. Quotes should always be formatted to tv.com standards. The name is bolded using HTML start and end tags, the colon is not. At least one space follows the colon. The quotation itself is not in quotation marks. Contextual material is italicized and separated from the bulk of text using brackets or parentheses. If another format is used on the page, please correct it. Do not use BB code. An example of HTML tags usage: Code: Joe Smith : (about George Washington) He is my idol and inspiration. Quotes should be the person's own words about their own life or someone who influenced their life. Quotes from their TV shows and/or movies are typically not acceptable (see below). Reviewer comments about the person are not acceptable. Quotes from a person's books, scripts, stand-up routines, political speeches, stage performances, etc., are not acceptable except for one or two well-known quotes or catch phrases. Provide context for the quote. An actor talking about "he," "she," "my show," etc., means nothing to most readers. ------------------------- Unacceptable : Joe Smith : He is my idol and inspiration. Acceptable : Joe Smith : (about George Washington) He is my idol and inspiration. ------------------------- Reference to Time Submissions All material submitted should be in complete sentences. This includes a subject noun (the person's first name, full name, or simply he/she) and a period at the end of the sentence. General submissions with no reference to time should be reworded. The words "currently" and "recently" and "now" tell the reader nothing about when the event occurred since they don't know when the entry was provided. Please provide a specific time reference, or at least the year, when posting. Don't assume another site that says "currently" is necessarily up-to-date either. ------------------------- Unacceptable : Is currently married to Mary Jo Acceptable : As of 2006 he is married to Mary Jo Smith. ------------------------- Trivia Trivia should be obscure but interesting. Keep in mind that not all readers may be fans of the person, and submitting 20 Trivia items is often as bad as submitting none. As with quotes, taking another site's copyrighted compilation/database of trivia is a violation of tv.com policy and copyright. Appearances in and of themselves are typically not Trivia since they are already listed on the page under All Appearances . It is acceptable to submit TV appearances if the show does not currently have an entry on TV.com. However, see below for the submission of related material. If they had an appearance on a show that is listed on TV.com, but their appearance isn't under All Appearances , submit them for the show/episodes that they appeared. Once the editor or staff approves your submission, they appear automatically under the celebrity's Appearances. Trivia should typically be about the person you're submitting for. Unless it has a direct bearing on the person's life, what their mother, grandfather, dentist, etc., did is not acceptable. Trivia should be confirmed facts that have actually occurred , not rumors. News about future events is iffy and it's typically better to wait until such events have occurred and can be confirmed. Likewise, try not to submit info that will need regular updating, such as upcoming movie appearances, scores and statistics for their current season, etc. Do not submit mailing addresses and off-site URLs. Please do not submit "Trivia" that can be easily determined by information already on the page such as birthdate (i.e., astrological signs, year of high school graduation, their current age, shared birthdays etc.). Whenever possible, all related material should be combined into a single submission. This refers primarily to brief one-line items, but can include taking a Biography and breaking it up into separate Trivia submissions. This includes but is not limited to: movies and roles, sporting statistics and awards, physical description, family members, discographies, and favorites. Do not post "constant update" Trivia. i.e., Trivia that is simply a continuing update of something in their lives. "Fred Jones appeared in 24 episodes of Leave It To Weasel ." when the show is still on the air and they're still participating in it isn't acceptable. Editing a submission only to add a link to another person or show on TV.com or other CNET sites isn't necessary, given search capabilities and inter-site links on each page. ------------------------- Unacceptable : (three separate submissions) "He played in the World Series in 1992." "He played in the World Series in 1993." "He played in the World Series in 1994." Acceptable : He played in the World Series from 1992-1994.

    talented man. hide show

    Plays the new voice of Iroh. If you didn't know (I think most people know though) Greg Baldwin is the new voice for Uncle Iroh (Mako, R.I.P) and Greg Baldwin did a segmant in "Tales of Ba Sing Se" (The part when Uncle Iroh goes in a place and there is a bunch of boys playing a sport, that's something like soccer) His version is a little lighter, but sounds very much like the original Uncle Iroh. You can also catch him in the avatar short "School Time Shipping" on youtube. I am happy they found a good voice to "replace" Uncle Iroh, and I don't think the new version will bother me that much. All in all, I am happy that they found Greg Baldwin. (Rest in Peace Mako)

    Do you agree?

    A man who is a victim for doing his job. hide show

    You see a lot of people smack talking about him, saying that he can never replace Mako. But just because Mako is no longer with us, [May he rest in his peace] does not mean the Mr. Baldwin can replace him, his talents, or his accomplishments, but he can replace Iroh's future voice. In voice-acting, the words and voice is the only thing that makes a cartoon [to a cartoon lover] tangible. It is something that cannot be warped, and created out of thin air without a throat or a tongue to command it. Greg is a talented man, and I am glad and proud that he is completing one of Mako's unfinished businesses.
