Could someone explain the cooper reference? I've watched that video twice now and don't catch it.

Puck's comment on name origin

[edit]
Puck wonders absent-mindedly whether his name is taken from "the letters, the pillars, the leather, the place, or the mode of behavior."

In an attempt to figure out what things Puck was referring to, according to Wikipedia:

"Corinthian" behavior is engaging in luxury and licentiousness.

Updating

[edit]

Just deleted that stupid line (or else he has a brother) and updated with more stuff from Dreaming. Someone wants to make those sentences smoother please do. Will get around to adding stuff about Echo as the Corinthian III when I get a chance. Highlandlord 18:19, 6 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:The Corinthian.png

[edit]

Image:The Corinthian.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

"Carries a Swiss Army knife" ?

[edit]

The infobox currently lists 'carries a Swiss Army knife' as one of the Corinthians abilities. Is this really necessary? Sure, he does have one, but you might as well add 'wears pants' as he does that too. JayDee (talk) 12:29, 17 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Removed it. JayDee (talk) 06:11, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

LGBT article?

[edit]

Why is this article listed in the scope of WikiProject LGBT Studies? Kalga (talk) —Preceding undated comment was added at 16:17, 10 October 2008 (UTC).[reply]

Apparently the distinction was made at some point that the Corinthian is a gay or bisexual serial killer because of his preference for male victims and what he does to them during or after the murders. Sounds strange, I know. Homoaffectional (talk) 18:09, 10 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of the idea
