I will attempt to make this as clear as possible:
Loch Ness is in Scotland, therefore so is the Loch Ness Monster. Scotland is in the UK. The UK uses the Pound Sterling, not the US Dollar.
Therefore, why would the Loch Ness Monster POSSIBLY want three DOLLARS and fifty CENTS? There is no express statement that the Loch Ness Monster wants three dollars and fifty cents. Therefore, it should be concluded that a Scottish monster would want the currency used in Scotland.
Face it - 'tree fiddy' means 'three fifty' IN SCOTLAND. Therefore it is three POUNDS and fifty PENCE.
Thank you,

Another thing to remember is, Thomas and Nellie probably didn't think the boys knew what "pounds and pence" are, so they labelled it in American currency so they would understand. While currency from a certain country can be worth more or less in other countries, the concept of it's value is the same anywhere, remember. Wilhelmina Will June 29th, 2007.
He appears in more then 2 episodes, why isn't he in the list?
His name is Schlomo (Sp?), isn't it? And yes, he is in countless episodes, and the movie. -- MasterA113 03:35, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
I agree with
Mr. Garrison regarding minor characters. Thus, should we create a separate page for the one-episode characters (i.e. Blanket, Ms. Stephenson, etc.), and leave all the characters that have recurred on this page? It would save a lot of space and make the article look more tidy.
Yay or nay?

It has come to my attention recently that people are just adding any character. The point is that to be a minor character I believe they should have appeared two-four times. If they've only been in one episode, don't include them because they're just one-off characters. Or we could list them with just a link to the episode they appeared. Here's an example:
I concur.--

Didnt moses appear in two episodes?
I think it looks kind of strange censoring swear words on Wikipedia... At one point in this article, namely the section about "Halfy", the author has censored two words, including the word "slut" in the episode name "Cartman's mom is a slut" - and I quote: "He was in "Cartman's Mom is a Dirty ####", being the only one who hadn't had sex with Mrs. Cartman to which the Mr. Garison replied "You don't count, Halfy; you don't have any legs". He also appeared in "Chickenlover" in which he said he'd #### chickens."

Uh, here are some stuff I'd like to propose:
-One-time characters such as Bradley, Josh, Thomas, and Ugly Bob should be removed. If someone can prove if they appear in the background of other episodes (such as a school or Canadian setting), that'd be nice.
-Loogie should be moved to the background character section of the student article, considering he is seen running out of the school fire in
Butt Out.
-Farmer Carl Denkins should be moved to the "other townsfolk" article, even if he does live out-of-town. (Mephesto seems to live outside, too, yet he's in that article.)
-How about the Super Best Friends? Joseph Smith does appear again
All About Mormons, and most of them appear in

Should we include a mention of characters that, while minor or even one-time, do appear in the backgrounds of episodes? For instance, I believe it was in the episode I'm A Little Bit Country during the big gathering at the end where they say it's been a great 100 episodes, that you can see many characters from previous seasons, including Sally_Struthers as she appeared in Starvin'_Marvin_(South_Park) (1997). -- Dakmordian —Preceding undated comment added 03:32, 14 May 2009 (UTC).
I come with this proposal to merge the following characters into this page:
This is basically because, as many other characters that have already been merged, this characters lack Notability outside South Park and only serve to make the real Jesus, Hussein and Satan more notable with their depictions in the series. There are no sections with real world content showing how these characters have impact in popular culture or getting coverage by a vast amount of reliable secondary sources. Apart from the episode appearances lists, which violate WP:PLOT and WP:WAF, the rest can entirely be merged in here, so no much content would be lost. Thoughts? -- LoЯd ۞pεth 04:50, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Yes, all of these characters have been seen more than once, so if they must be kept, simply group the most minor ones of all in one paragraph as "other minor recurring characters" (or something to that extent) rather than giving too much of a detailed crufty overview/section to each of them. - SoSaysChappy ( talk) 17:44, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Not done: Welcome and thanks for wanting to improve this article. When you use the editsemiprotected template, you need to be specific about the changes you want made. A 'Please change X to Y' or 'Please insert Y after Z' level of detail makes it easier for the volunteers servicing the request, who are probably not familiar with the article, to understand the request and act on it. Also, for factual changes like yours, Wikipedia requires a reference to some reliable source which can be cited in the article and used to verify the facts. "I'm relatively sure" is called original research and is not allowed here. If you search around some, you may be able to find some reliable sources that agree with you and then you can add it here.

I can see that this article has been undergoing a lot of heavy maintenance for a long time, but here is a suggestion--People have complained that there is a lot of superfluous information; would it perhaps be valuable to replace the fictional-biographical information with verifiable facts regarding the show?

The official site lists his name as Mephesto, and series co-creator Trey Parker's scripts universally use Mephesto, however Comedy Central seems to prefer Mephisto.

I feel it would be better to go with Trey Parker's wishes, but I know Wikipedia's rules may favor Comedy Central over the show's creators. -- JohnVMaster ( talk) 08:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
The section titled "Dr. Alphonse Mephesto and Kevin" dedicates two paragraphs to the Doctor, then another one to his companion Kevin, and then a little additional one describing the plot of a double episode, with some relation to Dr. Mephesto -although not adding anything about the character's personality- and no reference to Kevin. There is extensive information regarding that double episode in at least two Wikipedia articles. I therefore suggest that the last paragraph of the section is removed, or at least moved up before the one that precedes it, since it does not even mention Kevin.

i can't figure out what the following bolded section of text is saying.
Saddam Hussein's body is made in the usual South Park style (resembling construction paper), but his head is a photograph cutout, a technique also used with appearance by Mel Gibson and Ben Affleck. Saddam is also notable for having a "Canadian-style" head; that is, his head is cut into two pieces, which come apart when he talks, instead of having a conventionally articulated mouth. However Saddam's head animation has retained this quality in other appearances, unlike any other non-Canadian. He also uses /uː/ in place of /aʊ/ (as Canadians are often perceived to do with "aboot" in place of "about" in South Park).
i haven't watched the show in a couple years, and it's been even longer since i've seen an episode with saddam. i think it's the word "However" that's throwing me off..
Saddam's head animation has retained this quality in other appearances, unlike any other non-Canadian.
makes more sense. maybe. does saddam have a "canadian-style" head in every appearance? and is he the only non-canadian on the show to have a "canadian-style" head? is that what the original text is trying to say? ≈ Sensorsweep ( talk) 02:55, 11 June 2013 (UTC)

Alternately, you can leave off the template and see if the thought triggers a discussion here that results in a change to the article.

Under Towelie the author writes, "Towelie also claims that his name is spelled "Towelyey" which is the only time that he actually spells his own name in the series", but in the episode A Million Little Fibers he types his name as "Toweleeeie" at 1:38 on the video I'm currently watching.

I can see that this article has been undergoing a lot of heavy maintenance for a long time, but here is a suggestion--People have complained that there is a lot of superfluous information; would it perhaps be valuable to replace the fictional-biographical information with verifiable facts regarding the show? For instance, how about mentioning for each character when their first and last appearance was, who voiced the character, and then a quick summary of the character's contributions to the stories?

The "mechanic" character who appears in several episodes is based on Fred Gwynne's portrayal of the character Jud Crandall from the 1989 film adaptation of Stephen King's Pet Sematary. HazelGod ( talk) 16:10, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
"..pronouncing R's instead of L's."
This links to an article on Engrish, which would be appropriate if it was specifically discussing the type of humour used with Kim's speech. The correct term for pronouncing Rs in the place of Ls (also, note the lack of inappropriate commas) is actually called rhotacization. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 110.174.121.226 ( talk) 03:44, 31 December 2010 (UTC)
I find it ironic that this supposedly Chinese character has a Korean last name, but nobody has pointed this out. Kim is | not even a Chinese name ( talk) 01:53, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

The official site lists his name as Mephesto, and series co-creator Trey Parker's scripts universally use Mephesto, however Comedy Central seems to prefer Mephisto. How would this fall in with Wikipedia's rules? I feel it would be better to go with Trey Parker's wishes, but I know Wikipedia's rules may favor Comedy Central over the show's creators. -- JohnVMaster ( talk) 08:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
The section titled "Dr. Alphonse Mephesto and Kevin" dedicates two paragraphs to the Doctor, then another one to his companion Kevin, and then a little additional one describing the plot of a double episode, with some relation to Dr. Mephesto -although not adding anything about the character's personality- and no reference to Kevin. There is extensive information regarding that double episode in at least two Wikipedia articles. I therefore suggest that the last paragraph of the section is removed, or at least moved up before the one that precedes it, since it does not even mention Kevin.

i can't figure out what the following bolded section of text is saying.
Saddam Hussein's body is made in the usual South Park style (resembling construction paper), but his head is a photograph cutout, a technique also used with appearance by Mel Gibson and Ben Affleck. Saddam is also notable for having a "Canadian-style" head; that is, his head is cut into two pieces, which come apart when he talks, instead of having a conventionally articulated mouth. However Saddam's head animation has retained this quality in other appearances, unlike any other non-Canadian. He also uses /uː/ in place of /aʊ/ (as Canadians are often perceived to do with "aboot" in place of "about" in South Park).
i haven't watched the show in a couple years, and it's been even longer since i've seen an episode with saddam. i think it's the word "However" that's throwing me off..
Saddam's head animation has retained this quality in other appearances, unlike any other non-Canadian.
makes more sense. maybe. does saddam have a "canadian-style" head in every appearance? and is he the only non-canadian on the show to have a "canadian-style" head? is that what the original text is trying to say? ≈ Sensorsweep ( talk) 02:55, 11 June 2013 (UTC)
