| − | ==Elizabeth -> Emily?==
| + | {{Talk archive |
| − | In the Last Will and Testament of Zepheniah Mann, he leaves his estate to his maidservant '''Elizabeth'''. However, Loose Canon has the Will being read as giving the estate (what's left of it, anyways) to '''Emily'''. They are doubtlessly the same person (See the images) so which name should be used on the page? Maybe Valve's just trolling, but the issue still exists.

| − | I spoke to Makani in person, and she told me that they are separate people, and the inclusion of the name "Emily" in Zephaniah's will was a mistake. Elizabeth, Emily, and Helen are, however, all related. [[User:Fawkes|Fawkes]] 06:39, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Investigation of the Adminstrator's ancestry ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | This wiki page depicts Elizabeth/Emily as Zepheniah Mann's hand servant and also the woman who spoke with Radigan Conagher.
| |
| − | | |
| − | According to [http://www.teamfortress.com/loosecanon/04.html this page] Elizabeth/Emily existed in the 1850s. However, [http://www.teamfortress.com/loosecanon/05.html forty years later] she appears [http://www.teamfortress.com/loosecanon/08.html younger] when she speaks with the Engineer's grandfather than she had in the previous page. Wouldn't the unnamed woman that spoke with Radigan Conagher be Elizabeth/Emily's daughter and the current Administrator's mother? [[User:TerminalGear|TerminalGear]] 21:02, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | :: So then, shouldn't we make the distinction between Elizabeth/Emily and the unnamed woman? Because right now, all the wiki pages have them labeled as the same person... [[User:TerminalGear|TerminalGear]] 19:03, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | ::: Yeah, seems reasonable enough. At least unless Valve manage to link them in another way, such as the theory that she had the third life extender machine (but that's aside the point for now). [[User:Hackett|Hackett]] 19:05, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | == 1890's BLU Team ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | According to Makani, the only actual historical figure to appear in the 1890's BLU team portrait is Abraham Lincoln. The Engineer, Sniper, Scout, and Heavy are modeled after Tesla, Crockett, Billy the Kid and John Henry Irons, but are not necessarily supposed to be them. Spy was styled as a Fu Manchu type of character. Demoman is simply a crazy prospector, and was not drawn to resemble the original Demoman concept art. Soldier and Medic were simply drawn in the style of Civil War-era soldiers and medics, and were not meant to be specific people. [[User:Fawkes|Fawkes]] 06:45, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

| − | == Radigan is a Hale? ==

| − | I seem to recall that the Soldier vs. Demoman comic mentions the Demoman's name is Tavish, and he had a full family (Mom and Dad) at one point. Should I type up a section under Groups on this, or is his family not quite big enough to fit under it? --[[User:ANormalUsername|ANormalUsername]] 19:57, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
