Talk:Diya Aur Baati Hum

References and Plot

I've tagged the article as having way too much plot and way too few references. Wikipedia has some basic rules about article content. One of the most important is that the content of articles is verifiable by readers. This means the information in articles must come from specific reliable sources and the reader must be able to refer back to those sources to see where the information came from. Articles must not contain original research - which means they cannot be the opinions of the editors.

In addition, this article has way too much plot detail. Please refer to WP:PLOT that says that Wikipedia articles must be "Summary-only descriptions of works". See also Wikipedia's manual of style which says that "The length of a plot summary should be carefully balanced with the length of the other sections. Strictly avoid creating pages consisting only of a plot summary". This article clearly has way too much plot summary, none of which is referenced.

Would interested editors please address these issues. The plot section should be reduced to one or two short paragraphs and all unreferenced material could be removed at any time. Please address these issues, or I or another uninvolved editor will likely do so soon. Thanks, Sparthorse (talk) 08:25, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Number of episodes?

What on earth is going on with the |num_episodes= field?

1487 (21 minutes)

744 (42 minutes)

585 (55 minutes)

495 (65 minutes)

372 (85 minutes)

297 (100 minutes)

641 (Vietnam episodes)

What the heck does any of this mean? The field should contain a single number indicating how many unique episodes were produced. Are we trying to say that 4621 episodes were made? Or that 1487 episodes were repackaged in various ways? Who knows. The infobox is not intended to be a repository for excessive (and vague) detail like this. That's why we create Episode sections and explain things in prose. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 15:29, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
