http://www.tvbythenumbers.com is going down, kind of. The site will still be there, but Nielsen Media Research is cracking down and forcing them to delete all of their archives in the next few days containing information posted more than two weeks ago. This could be catastrophic for us, as most of our ratings information comes from that website. The DVR ratings are especially important because TV by the Numbers is the only public website that releases them and even they have been unable to obtain the last few weeks of season 5 (well, actually, using simple mathematics, we can figure them out through ABC Medianet's press releases, but I would rather not be accused of original research). WebCite is down right now, but once it is up again, we need to get all of our URL's processed through there for legitimate preservation. If you another website that serves the same function, please mention it here.

There seems to be alot of availible information pretaining to filming locations used during the shooting of "lost" and the imaginative ways that they transform some of the original sites to conform to the motif of the show. Obvouisly they can not be all shared of the main Lost (TV series) article and this has been expressed before. However I believed that a well sourced article about the filming locations can be a benificial addition to the project with a redirect from the subsection to this article. I started writing up a rough draft in a sandbox Here and would sort all the information presented. It could include places shoot at, what the production team did to prepare the place, what it was during the episode, and which episode it was used in. It would require help from the rest of the editors but would like to know your opinion. In suggestions would be welcomed. Thanks in advance B.s.n. (R.N.) 04:24, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
So, I was looking and the season 5 article was created around 26 July 2008. Now, I believe we have the season 6 article should be made. We have the first episode name, several stars coming back, and several interviews with the cast and crew. That's just my opinion. -- H E L LØ Ŧ H E R E 11:40, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
I would like to suggest that the title for each character would be the name used in the credits for the actors, with high preference on the most spoken name ala ( Kate Austen not Katherine Anne Austen).-- 23prootie ( talk) 03:53, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
The topic has not met its retention period, so I am sorry to say I have nominated it for removal - rst20xx ( talk) 19:17, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
It appears there are over 100 lost articles that are still Categorized as start class Category:Start-Class. How does one go about updating these, and possibly working them to C,B, or even GA status. Still new at this and any help will be appreciated. Thanks ♠ B.s.n. ♥R.N. contribs 12:49, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
I am not here to report, just to gain a consensus from fellow Lost project participants. On the Lost (season 5) article page, User:Amr.eladawy continues to add this text to the section of "The Incident". I, and another editor is the past have reverted these, as they seem to be POV and OR. Can someone else help? -- H E L LØ Ŧ H E R E 15:33, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
Amr.eladawy ( talk) 15:49, 26 September 2009 (UTC) Hi there, As I good viewer of the Lost (The whole 5 Seasons) I thought of adding the mentioned section to give more info about the Jacob role and this impact on every main character in the show. User:JpGrB continues to remove this part with no obvious reason. I am really getting concerned about how far wikipedia is open for everyone to add and improve. Wikipedia is just getting more more under very strict authority that contradicts with the very open nature it gives.
I tried many times talking to User:JpGrB on his talk page, and what I get is deletion without talk.
here is what I sent to him :
Hi there, I had just added a small part in the last episode of Lost season 5. And I see that you just removed it. Well, I returned it back and I hope you kindly advice why did u remove it?.
Thank you for making Wikipedia an open place for every person on earth to participate and help. Amr.eladawy (talk) 08:33, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
I read ur comment, and this is my reply
1- This is not a personal opinion, please watch the last episode. 2- It is important part as it reviles the truth about how Jacob was very much connected to all these main characters, and he was there at every important moment in their lives. 3- I think that these details are very useful to reader to understand more about the series and gives much info about the next final season.
I am waiting to ur review before removing the edit.
Thanks for using the talk page as civilized way for conversation..
I hope that clears my point about how does it make feel that wikipedia has become a place for some people to only control and impose.

It may be a little early but do any of you see any potental for a featured article candidate to present for main page before the start of the final season? Something to bring attention to the final season. Maybe even nominate "LA X" for did you know section with a 5x expansion? Well at least when the material presents itself. Just a thought. ♠ B.s.n. ♥R.N. contribs 03:50, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
Lapidus' article has just the importance assessment, but seems good enough for at least a B. Can someone take a look? igordebraga ≠ 21:31, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
