GDISNEYaPRINCEy, you reverted my recent edit to the summary of episode 14, "Supreme Courtship," with the edit summary "Not in format with other episode summaries, too detailed." I noticed that you appear to be the main author of the page's recent episode summaries, including the one I edited. I believe that the correct standard is the quality of the summary, rather than its conformity to other summaries. If my summary is better, which I believe it is, then our goal should be to improve the other summaries to match that quality, not to bar a summary like mine for being unlike the others. The summary I wrote is consistent with MOS:PLOT and MOS:TVPLOT, while the former one was not. For example, I changed the start of the summary from "It's Valentine's Day" to "On Valentine's Day," as MOS:PLOT describes as appropriate for maintaining an out-of-universe viewpoint. You criticized my summary for being "too detailed," but it falls within the 200-word guideline of MOS:TVPLOT for summaries in episode tables. And, again per MOS:TVPLOT, I believe my summary "summarizes the core storylines" and "outlines all of the episode's important events," while yours doesn't; the summary I replaced was a few sentences providing a teaser-y introduction to the episode's storylines, but it failed to summarize our outline them. In some cases, details were deliberately and conspicuously left out in ways that, for example, actually made the text longer ("a Supreme Court Judge" instead of "Ruth Bader Ginsburg"), or make the importance of the events unclear (not mentioning that Noah is the "favorite author" Karen meets, and not explaining why Jack would want Estefan to think Will has a crush on him). I believe I improved the article by rewriting the episode summary; if you still believe summaries as I write them are too detailed, please consider editing them down rather than reverting them. --DavidK93 (talk) 17:12, 15 March 2019 (UTC)Reply
