Photographic Memory?

[edit]

I don't think it is ever mentioned that she has a photographic memore, that's only mentioned about Marshall. I'm removing that from the page.

Luke 19:21, 9 February 2006 (UTC) She definately does. Sloane said that he picked alot of the missions she did for her beacause of her ability to notice small details[reply]

That doesn't mean she has a photographic memory, that would be original research. And, yes, I realize this conversation is nearly 4 years old...—DMCer 21:21, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Krav maga?

[edit]

Has it actually been established in any episode that the martial art used by Sydney is Krav maga? I don't remember ever hearing it referred to as such. 23skidoo 18:24, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[1] Perhaps not in an episode, but her official bio on ABC.com says yes. Excerpt: "Training/Special Skills: Krav Maga, track and field, Pilates, Linguistics, Theatre Arts, and electromagnetic lock picking." It's also a technique used by the CIA for close combat, so I'd say she does even without seeing the bio. K1Bond007 18:29, Jun 2, 2005 (UTC)

They do mention it once in the earlier seasons. I think they throw in other styles as well. She did most of the fighting scenes in the show.

"krav maga" means "Close combat" in Hebrew. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.68.226.15 (talk) 13:58, 22 October 2007 (UTC) in a later episode will tippen comes back from witness protection and after a fight scene says he has been taking krav maga**** —Preceding unsigned comment added by Laurensydney (talkcontribs) 20:17, 6 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Origin of middle name?

[edit]

Hey, I just noticed that, according the the pages here, Sydney shares a middle name with the actress who plays her, Jennifer Anne Garner. Does anyone know if this was intentional? Is this the sort of information that would even be worthy of mentioning (maybe in a trivia section)? SidShakal 16:01, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Trivia sections are best avoided. Personally I don't think it's worth mentioning at all but it's definitely not worth establishing or adding to a trivia section for. Otto4711 17:34, 31 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article gets off-track

[edit]

For an article that is supposed to be about Sydney's character, it goes into more depth about things that aren't specifically sydney-related, such as details about Lauren Reed. While the content is good, should the article really be stating all this under Sydney's bio article? I really think the divergent content ought to be moved to some other article 70.176.230.110 04:00, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
