Well first off, I felt that Chris Ryan's Strike Back, since it being a good show, and having a plentiful of firearms in it, I saw no reason why it should not be on here. So I decided to do it myself. I didn't upload images, because 1) I lack the knowhow, 2) I was afraid of messing up and 3) I'm a bit afraid of copyright issues. | Well first off, I felt that Chris Ryan's Strike Back, since it being a good show, and having a plentiful of firearms in it, I saw no reason why it should not be on here.

Some Things
Well first off, I felt that Chris Ryan's Strike Back, since it being a good show, and having a plentiful of firearms in it, I saw no reason why it should not be on here. So I decided to do it myself. I didn't upload images, because 1) I lack the knowhow, 2) I was afraid of messing up and 3) I'm a bit afraid of copyright issues.
But for firearms notice, I watched the series when it was on, and I've seen a SiG Sauer P220 series pistol, maybe a G3 or something similar and an sniper rifle which I don't know, which was used in Episode 3. Shoockeye7665 07:49, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
Friendly fire?
If Porter belives Collinson killed the soldiers in the beggining wouldn't seeing what round they got shot with prove that it was friendly fire? As Aks use 7.62 and M4s use 5.56?
Never mind I just watched the latest episode.
Sign your posts! And anyway, Collinson didn't use an M4 during the mission. And for my new edits, I'm doing the best I can, not to mess up and picture wise, I lack the knowhow. Shoockeye7665 13:51, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
Why this pages is marked No effort
Per the IMFDB rules, it pretty much states "either make a complete decent page or don't do it at all". There are too many incomplete pages that some IMFDB members just zoom in, make and zoom away to do other things, leaving the rest of us to try to complete. That is no longer acceptable. Your page for example: The title needs to conform to the IMDB title of the series. Check with IMDB for the official title. Being a foreign (to us Americans) tv show, we don't have the immediate access to doing screencaps to help out the page and we don't want a lame page sitting on IMFDB for months (sometimes years). There are shows like Primevel, etc. which are aired here in the U.S. and also sold as DVD packs in our stores so you probably noticed that IMFDB who know how to make screenshots are slowly helping out those pages. But that's the rub. It's irritating for some members to just do the easy work and leave the "heavy lifting" for other members. IMFDB is slowing starting to not tolerate that. Learn how to do screencaps. Learn how to google the movie poster or TV poster or DVD cover or SOME sort of promotional poster and put it in the page. Pages like this can WAIT until someone gets the DVD set and begins to properly screencap it. We have people who are fans of all these foreign shows all over the world. We have people putting pages for Japanese, Chinese, Indian, German, Russian, South African shows etc. etc.. Some of them we can see here in the States. Some of them we cannot. If members want to be representatives of their countries, they must create good pages, or away they go. We've done this DANCE many times before with people before you. Now, some of the Asian and Bollywood users are getting used to the IMFDB standards and are starting to make good pages. But in the past, we've had to DELETE a bunch of horrid pages from foreign users who just didn't get it.
Now the NO EFFORT tag is not a mark of death. It just means that the page is being watched and if NO IMPROVEMENT is seen over the course of 1-2 weeks, it will be on the fast track for deletion. Also Deletion is not the end. A page can be resurrected at any time if the user has the poster, screencaps, etc. ready to upload. It doesn't take much to keep a page from being deleted, but if the page doesn't even fulfill that minimum requirements, then it is gone. MoviePropMaster2008 20:08, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
Well, I'm really sorry about this, I really am. I do not wish to make other people do my dirty work. That's just being lazy and it can never happen. And about screencaps, I would like to know how to do it, but I'm afraid of copyright and I feel people's attitude to that is "Go find out yourself". But I never intended to get on the wrong side of you, MoviePropMaster2008, and I apologize with full intent. In future, I will keep in mind with what you said and I'll make sure it'll never happen again. And I just checked both the Wikipedia article and the IMDB articles for the program. Apparently it can be called simply "Strike Back" or "Chris Ryan's Strike Back". Shoockeye7665 10:08, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
- Dude. don't grovel! LOL. MPM just said that we need to do the page right or not at all. I don't think anyone was slamming you personally. Its just about all the crap they took in the past that makes them wary. 99.2.150.58 04:12, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
