Sliders Portrayal in Wrong Section

[edit]

The paragraph about North's portrayal in Sliders should be in the section regarding Popular Media, not the section regarding his television and film appearances, as he himself did not appear in the TV show. PDAODOENAAOPEATBOMD (talk) 16:40, 26 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Thanks for the suggestion.
But what about this? "In Season 4, Episode 15 "Stanny Slickers II: The Legend of Ollie's Gold" of the TV series American Dad! Stan Smith searches under his house for Oliver North's hidden gold," where the American Dad! (season 4) actually refers to "Cornel North." Is that a parody of Col. North? I ask about this on that article's Talk page, and noted this in the present article. Larry Koenigsberg (talk) 18:09, 27 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rob0288 (talk) 17:07, 4 April 2025 (UTC)Rene Auberjonois portrayed a character based and styled after North in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country named Colonel West. Although he did not appear in the original theatrical version, his character appeared in the VHS and remastered Blu Ray release in 2022. Rob0288 (talk) 17:07, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Rob0288, Fandom (website) is not a reliable source. See WP:FANDOM. A much better source would be required. Cullen328 (talk) 17:12, 4 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The mugshot of Oliver North should be deleted. All of his charges were reversed upon appeal. To blatantly show a picture that ultimately does not reveal any real outcome regarding the charges seems political and should not be in any publication that deems itself neutral in political affairs.

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{Edit semi-protected}} template. Change highly likely to be opposed, and if nobody else does, I will because this seems like blatantly assuming bad faith on editors. It's just a mugshot.
