Wording

Is "cripple" the most appropriate word to use in this article when describing the man on the train tracks? Jaydubya93 (talk) 12:49, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Untitled

The trivia section has a refrence which states:

This is another episode where the word "shit" isn't blocked out. This is said when the South Park wall is torn down by Mongolians. The owner of City Wok exclaims "God Damn Mongolian! Don't break down my shitty wall!". 

This is not correct. The captioning on this episode states "city" instead of "shitty". CStyle 04/27/06.

Mistake

The article cited IGN's rating (of season 6) as 5/10, it was 10/10. Corrected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.85.251.57 (talk) 17:42, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

Didn't Mr. Lu Kim get paid to build the wall in the original version?

I remember in the original first-run episode, Lu Kim refuses to build the wall until he is offered a fairly large sum of money. "Oh yeah, ssure ssure, I build shitty wall." he replies. In the current version, Lu Kim is convinced via pride in his cultural heritage (a politically correct spin?) I have only one verbal source for confirmation; please help if you have any REAL sources to cite. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.134.250.143 (talk) 17:38, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Attacking sounds

When Mongolians attack the wall it seems the sound samples are taken from Age of Empires 2 game. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.164.103.21 (talk) 02:04, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Locked door

"*After the part when Tweek's dad fakes the shooting and says good night, he ( Tweek's father ) closes the door and locks it from the outside. If he could lock the door from the outside, he could also unlock it from the outside, so what's the point of the lock?"

The door is locked from the outside so that Tweak's parents are the only ones that can lock and get into the room. It could also be a two way lock. Either way this sort of comment is a discussion comment, so post it in Talk instead of the main area in the future. Orichalcon 13:54, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

What's that all about?

Trivia

The trivia section in this article is a waste of time.

"This was the last episode to first air in the summer."

First of all, eh? Second of all, who cares?

"Mr. Lu Kim commonly says during the episode "You darmn Mongorians!!! Stop breaking down my shitty wall!!!", an interchangable phrase that can be taken as "city" or "shitty""

Thanks, because I didn't understand the joke when I actually watched the episode. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 90.11.25.29 (talk) 22:35, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

I have noticed some minor errors. First of all author mentioned "the band of Mongols". Actually it was "Mongolians" just like Americans, Mexicans or Chinese. And those Mongolians destroy the city wall because of some reason. But author said Mongols destroy the wall with no reason. Thats not true. As you all know "City wall" was inspired by the "Great Wall" from China. Thousands of years ago China and Mongolia were 2 countries (until now)who always fight and usually end up with Mongolians victory. Chinese King ordered to build the wall to protect Chinese people from Mongolians. But the wall couldn't help. Even it was completed, Mongolians were still attacking China, killing people and destroying the wall. So please edit it for the sake of history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nanzai (talkcontribs) 04:39, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Replied to the discussion on whether or not the City Wok Guy says "City" or "Shitty".

You must remember that his accent disables him from pronouncing the "sss" sound properly. He pronounces it as "shhh" instead.

Fair use rationale for Image:City Wall.jpg

Image:City Wall.jpg 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 Misplaced Pages 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 Misplaced Pages:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Misplaced Pages 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

About Mongolians and their attacks

I have noticed some minor errors. First of all author mentioned "the band of Mongols". Actually it was "Mongolians" just like Americans, Mexicans or Chinese. And those Mongolians destroy the city wall because of some reason. But author said Mongols destroy the wall with no reason. Thats not true. As you all know "City wall" was inspired by the "Great Wall" from China. Thousands of years ago China and Mongolia were 2 countries (until now)who always fight and usually end up with Mongolians victory. Chinese King ordered to build the wall to protect Chinese people from Mongolians. But the wall couldn't help. Even it was completed, Mongolians were still attacking China, killing people and destroying the wall. So please edit it for the sake of history. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nanzai (talkcontribs) 04:41, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Redirect

I have redirected this episode because it was comprised mainly of plot, and had little to no outside information on the episode. The workers who sculpted the article's efforts were not in vain, though. The episode's contents now exist identically in South Park Wiki. Just so you know. Wilhelmina Will (talk) 07:08, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Uncited material

Cite please;

  • At the end of the episode, the mayor says, "Mr. Lu Kim, tear down this wall!" is alluding to President Reagan's famous quote "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" about the Berlin wall.
  • When the child abductor is captured by the police he says a line reminiscent of the ending of Scooby-doo.
  • When Mr. Kim is defending his wall, he pulls out his rocket launcher and says, "Say hewwo to my rittle friend" which is a reference to the Al Pacino movie Scarface.

They patently are all references to above, and short of a writer saying "x is a reference to y" in an interview I can't think of an appropriate citation? --Joey Roe 16:25, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Moreover, I believe that citations are needed in order to prove something is valid. If you fail to recognize those things you mentioned, you know the old saying - google it. Those are very well known facts and don't need citation. Oh, and btw, they are citations themselves if you read carefully.
