Candidate for Deletion

Why was the page or rather the section concerning the Rules flagged for deletion? It's perfectly fine the way it is. User:SocialOutsider

Subpage

Is there a reason this is a subpage of Gibbs' article and not its own article? I was looking for it on its own page before I found it here.--31dot (talk) (Contribs) 23:14, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

"Rule #12: Never get personally involved in a case.[15]
Said by the SecNav to be Rule #1 in Washington politics, in Nature of the Beast, Season 9, Episode 1."

This is also backed up by Season 4 Episode 21 said by Jenny "Are you going to quote rule #1 back at me?" Rule number one doesn't make sence but this does.

Rule 39a:

"No such thing as a small world." Season 10, Episode 14: Canary. Said by Ziva and Tony to suspect (at aprox 22:40). http://img255.imageshack.us/img255/6670/squirrel3kk9.gif Wolbee 23:07, February 6, 2013 (UTC)

Rule 62

Abby is messing with a camera by the elevator and the flash goes off in Gibbs' face. She immediately said something along the lines of an apology and then said "I know rule 62 is to give people thier space..." and then went on talking about the case. This came from Double Back (episode).

Exact words by Abby (from recording, run several times thru): "Always give people space when they get off the elevator"

Two Pages

Why are there two variations of this page, Gibb's Rules and Leroy Jethro Gibbs/Gibbs's Rules? --Ditto51 (Author) 22:16, January 15, 2014 (UTC)

Maybe whoever made the other page got tired of this locked page never getting updated. -- Rule 20 has been known for several months. It's on the other page, and not this one. Dickbalaska (talk) (Contribs) 19:33, August 24, 2015 (UTC)

Rule 62

Rule 62: [Abby to Gibbs] "Always give people space when they get off the elevator." Double Back (episode)

Rule 70

In Season 12, Episode 5, McGee added Rule # 70- "Keep digging until you hit bottom."  Gibbs, at the end of the episode, asked McGee, "Rule 70, McGee?"174.54.100.201 01:07, October 22, 2014 (UTC)

Why's this page protected? -Robin (talk) (Contribs) 01:12, October 22, 2014 (UTC)
That's what I was wondering.  I was gonna update it last night during the show, but I couldn't.

Rule 51

Now confirmed that the rest of the team knows about the rule, Gibbs tells them about it in Season 12, Episode 10, House Rules

164.107.210.65 03:27, December 18, 2014 (UTC)

At least McGee knows about this rule, as he wrote about it in his letter to his father in Season 12, Episode 10 - "House Rules"

Rule 6

Rule 6 - In the explanation of this rule is an aside about the parallels between Mark Harmon's and John Wayne's careers where it states, "Mark Harmon's career has paralleled John Wayne's. They both were quarterback of their southern California college football team..." While Mark Harmon indeed was starting quarterback for UCLA, John Wayne played on the Offensive Line, not quarterback, during his time at USC.

Rule 22

Also referenced in Season 9, Episode 19 "The Good Son": DiNozzo interrupting an interrogation: "Hate to break Rule 22 boss, but his lawyer's here." Dickbalaska (talk) (Contribs) 05:47, February 5, 2015 (UTC)

Rule 20

"Always look under." -It was revealed in the episode Artful Dodger. This rule hasn't been added to the page yet.Bgonter17 (talk) (Contribs) 20:15, March 13, 2015 (UTC)

And, seven months later, it still hasn't. Is this Wiki a ghost town? Several character pages I visited seem incomplete (i.e. "x character is a woman, seen in episode y", not even a basic description of their role). 9,000 pages, and yet incomplete info, seems surprising.

Source

A while back, I did a search for the following two rules (numbers not yet given), but I've never managed to find what episode they were first mentioned in. Does anyone here know?

- "Don't stop checking and rechecking evidence until you are satisfied." - ?
- "Never second guess yourself in a relationship and life." - ?

You seem to be missing a rule... RULE 0

RULE 0 - Do what you must for family. (told to Gibbs by Mike Franks (Franks calls it the unspoken rule))

  • That one's under "Unnumbered rules". (Until next time... Anon e Mouse Jr.) Anon e Mouse Jr. (talk) (Contribs) 15:25, April 23, 2015 (UTC)

This rule is pictured in the rule box when Gibbs is going through the box before he adds rule 51 in the episode Rule Fifty-One. TokyoGirl137 (talk) (Contribs) 20:18, December 26, 2015 (UTC)TokyoGirl137

Rule 20: "Always Look Under", said by Eleanor Bishop during 'The Artful Dodger' (S12E7). Tony replies to this by saying, "Rule 20, rarely quoted, widely interpreted".

Rule 40

In episode House Rules (season 12) this rule is pronounced (in a flashback of an earlier episode) as: "If you think someone's out to get you, they are.' 145.129.110.232 20:49, April 2, 2016 (UTC)
