I noticed that not long ago you edited this page. I want to draw your attention to the use of Shannon Patrick Sullivan's website being used as a source, which I think you have removed from other Doctor Who related articles as not being reliable. Is that correct? Rodericksilly (talk) 03:55, 17 April 2021 (UTC)

As you have not responded, I'm going ahead and removing the source myself. Thanks. Rodericksilly (talk) 19:15, 18 April 2021 (UTC)

Go for it, I have no qualms about it. (Sorry about the late response.) -- /Alex/₂₁ 00:46, 19 April 2021 (UTC)

Clarification for series overviews

Hi, I was hoping you could clear up for me whether or not to use a subheading for a series overview when adding it on a main page. It was my understanding that you just placed it between the Episodes, and Season 1 heading without one. The only info I could find was MOS:TVOVERVIEW. I interpret that as no subheading is required when the overview is on a main page, and a separate section heading is used when on a list of episodes page. But I've been reverted when removing subheadings, and had them added when I don't use them. So I'm just confused, as some pages have one and others don't. A lot of pages marked as good seem to NOT have them. Is this one of those things where it's up to the editor? Or is there a right way? Racheal Emilin (talk) 00:38, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Racheal Emilin, you are correct. As I stated in my revert, a series overview table is an overview of the entire Episodes section (hence series "overview"), meaning it should be at the top of the Episodes section without subsectioning it off. Episode tables are sectioned off, because Season 1 is separate from Season 2, but the table summarizes all the seasons. On a LoE page, being an "episodes" page, it summarizes the entire article, hence it having its own section, and being the very first section at that. -- /Alex/₂₁ 01:08, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

I seen both with and without Series overview label as a subsection on the main articles including good television articles. I believe it is up to editors. Nothing on MOS:TVOVERVIEW explicitly said a subsection label for the Series overview is frown upon the main article without a List of episodes article nor any past discussions that said that. WP:OSE. — YoungForever^(talk) 01:42, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

OSE is completely irrelevant here, so I'm not sure why it was quoted basically as an add-on explain-all? This essay is not a standard reply that can be hurled against anyone you disagree with who has made a reference to how something is done somewhere else.

None of this changes the fact that a series overview summaries the entire episodes section and hence belongs at the extreme top of the section. For example, see how Arrowverse#Development doesn't have an opening subsection, because it all concerns the development, and there's only a new subsection when the development concerns a specific topic. In the same vein, we shouldn't use an opening subsection for a series overview, because it concerns all of the seasons/episodes, and there's only new subsections (i.e. season headers) when the episodes section concerns a specific season. -- /Alex/₂₁ 06:57, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

Yet, there are still good television articles have both with and without Series overview label as a subsection on the main articles for those without List of episodes articles. So, OSE is relevant. — YoungForever^(talk) 16:40, 2 May 2021 (UTC)

YoungForever, can you give the guideline or policy that clearly states that content should be acceptable if it's in an article that's passed a GA review? I also clearly cited OSE and how it doesn't apply; don't just state "oh and OSE" as if it's a catch-all. -- /Alex/₂₁ 21:30, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

On WP:GA, good article (GA) is an article that meets a core set of editorial standards, the good article criteria, passing through the good article nomination process successfully. They are well written, contain factually accurate and verifiable information, are broad in coverage, neutral in point of view, stable, and illustrated, where possible, by relevant images with suitable copyright licenses. — YoungForever^(talk) 22:35, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

YoungForever, yes, I know what a GA is. You failed to answer my question completely. Where is the guideline or policy that explicitly states "if it's in a GA article then it's acceptable in other articles"? -- /Alex/₂₁ 22:56, 3 May 2021 (UTC)

Just out of curiosity, are there any negative issues with adding line breaks? If this is just a style issue, I really must urge you to go back to the previous version.—TriiipleThreat (talk) 01:57, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Nevermind, I see here that they can cause accessibility concerns.—TriiipleThreat (talk) 02:11, 6 May 2021 (UTC)

Color template for List of Trolls: The Beat Goes On! episodes

I just want to point out that those randomly used colors make no sense. Rainbow colors fit the theme of trolls better so not arbitrary change there. And for the record there was no edit war, just an attempt to introduce a better color scheme. Have you any suggestions to improve the choice of colors? Deltasim (talk) 14:49, 26 May 2021 (UTC)

Beebo Saves Christmas

Where do we add info for this upcoming TV special? Or is it better to create a draft? Kailash29792 (talk) 11:52, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Kailash29792, definitely a draft, but we could add a separate Specials section to List of Legends of Tomorrow episodes (as this is a different sort of special to "Crisis on Infinite Earths: Part Five"). -- /Alex/₂₁ 14:32, 28 May 2021 (UTC)

Transclusion check

Hey Alex. I just made some edits to the Phase Four article to adjust what parts of the TV overview table are transcluded where at the TV list and the main MCU article. I was hoping you wouldn't mind looking over my edits to make sure I put the right "dontclose", brackets, and "end" templates, etc. because I can get confused by what needs to be done. I think I did it all correctly. As well, I noticed for the Guardians Holiday special, if I did "Series overview|Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase Four" it then made the series name not appear, so I ultimately didn't include that. Is that wrong? Thanks! - Favre1fan93 (talk) 02:43, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Hey Favre. Made a few tweaks, but all looks perfectly fine! (And honestly, it looks so much tidier now in the released/upcoming format than before).

Really strange about the specials entry; I'll take a look into that. All the "Series overview|Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase Four" code it used for is for the transclusion parameters. Take Marvel's ABC television series, for example, and how its overview uses |network_transclude=onlyinclude - that means it shows the network on the transcluded-to page, but not the original page (mimicking the behaviour of the onlyinclude tag). So, "Series overview|Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase Four" will only be needed for the special once it's released to toggle the Status column (not until 2022!), but it's still something for me to look into. -- /Alex/₂₁ 00:29, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Ok, thanks! I restored the transclusion tags around infoC for WandaVision because while all the changes looked correct, "Released" wasn't appearing. Any thoughts? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 01:52, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Ohh, it looks like I accidentally got rid of |infoC=y in the first overview when implementing the "transclude" parameter, my bad. All fixed! -- /Alex/₂₁ 13:06, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

The Guardians Holiday special issue is also fixed! -- /Alex/₂₁ 13:15, 31 May 2021 (UTC)

Plot summaries

Thank you for your message. I couldn't figure out how to leave a message for you on my own talk page, so here I am. I thought the plot summaries should be as comprehensive as possible, since presumably most people who come to read them, come for spoilers; that is indeed why I came to the page, and why I wanted to add to the summaries, as I felt they were missing a lot of plot points. However, I understand that Wikipedia has its own rules, and with a limit of 200 words, there is not much that can be added to the summaries. Still, shame. Thank you for the info.

Please move the page Draft:The Sound of Magic to The Sound of Magic

@Alex 21: hi, you moved the article The Sound of Magic to draft space with a redirect of main article, on the grounds that it has not begun filming. Here are 2 links which indicate that the Ji Chang-wook, the main lead of the series is presently filming the series, 1. "He (Ji Chang-wook) is expected to join after 'Anna Sumanara', which is currently being filmed.", 2. Ji Chang-wook is currently filming Netflix's 'Anna Sumanara'. Another link also indicates that Hwang In-youp the second lead is filming the series, "He (Hwang In-youp) is currently in the midst of filming the role of Nile-deung in the Netflix original series 'Anna Sumanara'". Please move the page to main space. Thanks. Rickyurs (talk) 06:50, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Now that filming having commenced is now included and sourced, I've moved the article back. Cheers. -- /Alex/₂₁ 10:15, 8 July 2021 (UTC)

Mort Dinner Rick Andre

Hi, I've expanded Draft:Mort Dinner Rick Andre and would normally move it to mainspace, or request G6 of the redirect so it can be moved, but here there's a non-trivial page history (including copying from Mort Dinner Rick Andre to the draft in an edit of yours). I think the correct method here is a round robin swap of the two pages—is that right? And if so, I notice you're a page mover, so would you be able to carry this out? Thanks! — Bilorv (talk) 20:01, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Doctor Who (2022 specials)

I went ahead and started Draft:Doctor Who (2022 specials), just thought I'd let you know since you're generally the main contributor to Doctor Who articles. I think it's pretty solid already. TheDoctorWho (talk) 21:08, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

TheDoctorWho, brilliant! Thanks for that. -- /Alex/₂₁ 21:22, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

On second thought, after reading over them both, that article actually meets WP:NTV (as well as the Wikipedia:Notability (television) that's currently being drafted). I know there's not a rush but, it has both a source that confirms episodes are filming as part of the thirteenth series, a confirmed start date of 1 January, and more than enough reliable sources. Since these conditions are met it could very well stand in the mainspace. TheDoctorWho (talk) 02:09, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

You're definitely correct that it would meet NTV, but I still think it's too early, given that they've only been announced for a day, and filming information can be included in the Series 13 article for now. I'd say publish it once Series 13 is close to finishing, then we move all filming information across (even if it was filmed as part of S13, same as the 2008 and 2013 specials filming tables). -- /Alex/₂₁ 14:43, 30 July 2021 (UTC)

Sorry for so many recent posts here, this one isn't regarding the specials itself and should hopefully be the last one for the time being, anyways not sure if you wanna do something with this or not [1]. I imagine someone at the BBC or on the production team had to contact Moffat if they intended to use the Weeping Angels since he originally created them for Blink. The actual Instagram post has since been edited after he realized it hadn't been previously announced, that's what the bit at the end in parenthesis is about, but since RT reported on it, it seems like solid information. TheDoctorWho (talk) 08:43, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

TheDoctorWho, revisiting this, I think it might be a good idea to move it, so we can separate the specials from Series 13, especially given recent news, confirming the director for one episode and that the first two specials have actually concluded filming. -- /Alex/₂₁ 02:17, 11 August 2021 (UTC)
