[edit] encyclopedic

all he must do is rub his ginormous rump against the bark of the palm tree (see barking). The tree then falls over due Hurley's extreme weight. In this manner, Hurley gains sexual gratification from the barking, and the camp gains coconuts. Everyone wins, except of course the tree.

This should be changed to something more encyclopedic or removed. Yincrash 01:49, 20 December 2006 (UTC)

Lol that was meant to be a joke, I think. Hurley doesn't really do that141.195.156.132 22:51, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comment

Per Hurley's second revelation to Charlie that he is a multi-millionaire (in Everybody Hates Hugo), specifically $156 million I thought that number was better suited to be placed under profession--since the $114 million would just be initial winnings. Though I thought that the accountant said that he had doubled his money--I need to dig out the DVDs and check for sure to see what the original number was and what was said. Black Wolff 03:21, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Sorry; I took the number out entirely, as it's not really crucial info in "profession", beyond noting that he's a multi-millionaire. The specific amount can be addressed (if desired) in the article body, or in the episode description-- although my view is that the exact number of millions Hurley won/is worth isn't meaningful, other than being a big 'ol chunk of change. LeFlyman 03:48, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

No, don't apologize, it actually looks much better this way, ;). I just updated the number because I though that 156 was better than 114, I didn't think of typing it like it is now--'tis a good change. Black Wolff 13:12, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

Why does Hurley have the nickname Hurley? --81.103.58.81 23:26, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

We haven't found out yet. —Josiah Rowe 04:53, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

Can we assume that the box company Hurley owns in Tuscin is the same box company Locke works for?

Yes. If I remember correctly this was verified on an official podcast.Black Wolff 15:19, 2 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Photo

Some idiot keeps uploading and overwriting the real Jorge Garcia photo with someone he seems to want to make fun of. I can't get in to upload the correct version of the file, but if someone else could (go to the image page - upload new version) I would be very grateful.

[edit] Moving to Hugo Reyes

I suggest moving the page to Hugo Reyes or Hurley. Nicknames in the middle of the article name are not really useful, and make the article harder to search. -- ReyBrujo 20:09, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

• I think it is fine as it is. Some people, like yourself, would prefer his name. So would prefer his nick name. What we have is a good half way house. codu (t/c) 12:51, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

It's fine the way it is. --thedemonhog talk contributions 18:56, 28 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] this should be removed

"Reyes serves as the show's comic relief." Completely subjective and unsubstantiated Statement. Furthermore, given the typical nature of his flashbacks, i dont think this is true. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 124.182.145.167 (talk) 06:27, 5 March 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Triva

I've chopped up the triva section. if anyone has any objections, please revert it.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Hurleylost.PNG

Image:Hurleylost.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 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.
