Ratings listings for List of The Flash episodes
Brojam, per a recent consensus on the talk page for List of The Flash episodes, episodes should not be displayed in the Ratings section until there is actual rating information available for them, which effectively means not until the day after they air when final ratings are available. You can add the basic information so long as it is commented out, but as duplicate information to what is in the episodes table (date and title), it should not be shown until the ratings have been published. I have commented out your additions for now. Thank you for your cooperation. BlueMoonset (talk) 06:18, 14 January 2017 (UTC)
Arrowverse Characters
Hello, I was wondering, would you have plans to start making articles for Barry, Laurel, Dig, Felicity, Thea, Rip and Stein? It would be great to have them as articles. Many Thanks anyway.--92.40.148.102 (talk) 00:28, 30 January 2017 (UTC)

Draft:Gorilla City (The Flash) listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Draft:Gorilla City (The Flash). Since you had some involvement with the Draft:Gorilla City (The Flash) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. Kailash29792 (talk) 04:07, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
As of this series' most iconic characters (regardless of which iteration Cavanaugh plays), I think it's high time he gets his own Wiki article. What do you say? The least you could do is collect sources while I create a draft afterwards. Kailash29792 (talk) 03:08, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- Definitely, will do. I was actually just thinking the same thing. I'm not exactly sure how his article should be split since he portrays so many characters, but I'm sure we can figure it out. I've started getting info for Barry Allen and put it in my sandbox. I'll create the draft for him soon. Brojam (talk) 03:19, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- Please do at your own pace. The Wells draft could begin like, Harrison Wells is the name of several fictional characters..., something like Robin or Green Lantern. Kailash29792 (talk) 03:36, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- Perfect examples. And ya I'll take my time. Kinda want to improve the current episode articles and get "Flash vs. Arrow" to GA; as well as the upcoming Supergirl crossover article before working on this. Brojam (talk) 03:56, 8 March 2017 (UTC)
- I've created the draft, now it just needs to be further expanded. This source could also be useful. --Kailash29792 (talk) 09:42, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
- @Kailash29792: Alright. I'll start looking for sources and info to add. I also started a draft for the fourth season of The Flash so that when we get info about the next season we can add it right away. - Brojam (talk) 03:53, 22 March 2017 (UTC)

- Nice work expanding it. Is there a search engine like this that helps us find reliable sources only? It could be useful in adding more sources. --Kailash29792 (talk) 06:29, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
- Not that I know of. - Brojam (talk) 18:15, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
Plot template
When you include that big, disgusting template (or re-add it like here), it just takes up more space and looks even uglier than a textwall. Why not just improve the article instead? -- Ajraddatz (talk) 07:24, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- I hadn't finished watching the episode so I did not want to edit the summary. While the template is somewhat big, it is important that summaries stay the current length and editors know of this rule, especially with a new show like Riverdale. And see, now it's gone. Brojam (talk) 17:26, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
- Definitely fair why you didn't improve it yourself - that's why I didn't fix it either. But idk, if it is going to be fixed within a day anyway then I'm not sure how useful it is. -- Ajraddatz (talk) 19:05, 9 March 2017 (UTC)
Flash vs. Arrow
Hello:
The copy edit that you requested from the Guild of Copy Editors of the article Flash vs. Arrow has been completed.
You will notice that I archived one of the article’s citations (#1). I suggest you archive the rest of the article’s URLs as time allows. This ensures that the article's references are available "forever" and that it doesn’t develop "dead links" over time. The site I use is https://archive.org/web/. Simply copy the URL in the citation and paste it in the "Save Page Now" box on the archive.org site and click "Save". This creates a copy of the original page and provides you with a new URL to add to the original citation. If you look at the URL I've archived you'll see the syntax. You add the new URL to the end of the original citation like this: |archiveurl=http etc|archivedate=March 15, 2017}}. Not all websites allow archiving so there's not much you can do about that unless there is an alternate citation you can use.
Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.
Good luck with the GAN.

Invasion!
FYI, given you've nominated Flash vs Arrow for GA, I was planning to do the same with Invasion! once we get home media info. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:49, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- Perfect. I'm also planning on nominating Heroes Join Forces in the future (but not right now). And best to wait until the home media info, I have a feeling they might include all episodes together like they did with Heroes Join Forces. It will be interesting to see if they include the Supergirl episode with the other 3. Brojam (talk) 20:57, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
- @Favre1fan93: You can probably go ahead with your GAN for "Invasion!" now that the DVD info is out and they were not released together. - Brojam (talk) 18:35, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
template
hello, can you tell me how to create a template, i saw you've create one for This is us Ratings ;) Judor92 (talk) 20:30, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
- @Judor92: sure, what type of template do you want to create? A ratings one? Brojam (talk) 21:59, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
- @Brojam: yes, ratings mostly :) - Judor92 (talk) 22:31, 20 March 2017 (UTC)
- So pretty much, first you create the page
.../wiki/Template:TV_series_name_ratings
and then use this template {{Template:Television ratings graph}}. Couple of tips for creating ratings templates: 1) There should not be more than 20 eps per season (since that's the max the template can handle for the moment without it looking too confusing). 2) If there already exists a table with the full season ratings table on the same article, it is not appropriate to also include this template with the graph since the information is already there. 3) Only create a ratings template after a good number of eps have aired (~26 or 2 seasons) or confirmation that more will air (ex. This Is Us renewed for an additional 36 eps). Hope that helps! - Brojam (talk) 23:10, 20 March 2017 (UTC)

Your Criminal Minds Beyond Borders edit
I noticed with this edit [1] you removed all of the references from the production codes. However per MOS:TV it very clearly states "If production codes are added, they must be reliably sourced." Therefore you have removed a reference from something that requires it. I suggest you self-revert to add them back. - GalatzTalk 13:40, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
- You only need to source a production code before the episode airs, which is already done with the references for the titles of episodes 6 to 9. - Brojam (talk) 18:48, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
- Yes I agree for director and writer and episode name, however production codes are intentionally listed separately. The MOS very clearly says they should have an RS.- GalatzTalk 20:57, 6 April 2017 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) Are the sources listed at the end of the episodes? If so, the episode themselves act as a primary sources; also see Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Television § Good Wife "production codes". -- AlexTW 00:32, 7 April 2017 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2017 MTV Movie & TV Awards, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Transparent and Allison Williams. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

So soon?!
I was surprised that Arrow's Adrian Chase got his own article even before John Diggle and Harrison Wells (who don't yet have articles, despite being regulars in their respective series). Do you plan on creating a draft for Diggle? If yes, it should be Draft:John Diggle (character). --Kailash29792 (talk) 13:02, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Kailash29792: I was shocked that he even got an article let alone that it was before characters like Diggle, Felicity, Wells and Barry, especially since he will most likely not be sticking around for season 6. Nope, no current plan on creating a draft for Diggle or any other characters for the moment. I don't mind helping find sources but I'll be focusing on episode articles and getting the season articles of The Flash ready for mainspace. I'll probably be able to look at the other articles in the middle of summer. Maybe you could ask the creator of Adrian Chase if he would be interested in creating other character articles? - Brojam (talk) 20:11, 23 April 2017 (UTC)

Agents of SHIELD
Brojam, none of your sources definitively state when Agents of SHIELD will run; they just speculate about late fall or winter, nor is it placed in the announced schedule. Please stop forcing it into the table until we know when it will premiere. I'm at least the third editor to revert you; please discuss on the talk page. --Drmargi (talk) 17:24, 17 May 2017 (UTC)
No, it's not about the upcoming episode, but the island where it takes place. Feel free to store sources, which I could use to expand it. --Kailash29792 (talk) 10:25, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- It's going to be hard to find and have enough info for this article. Does it really need it's own article; might it not be better to just include it under something like "Filming locations" on the main Arrow article? - Brojam (talk) 16:45, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- On second thoughts, I too feel there can't be a complete article on the island, but it can be converted it into an episode article. Sources may be found using this US newspaper search engine. --Kailash29792 (talk) 17:26, 21 May 2017 (UTC)
- That will be much easier. I'm not up to date with Arrow so I won't be able to help content wise until I do but I'll be able to find you a bunch of sources. I've also started a draft for The Flash season 3 finale as well. - Brojam (talk) 19:06, 21 May 2017 (UTC)

Ways to improve Breakthrough Performance Award
Hi, I'm Ajpolino. Brojam, thanks for creating Breakthrough Performance Award!
I've just tagged the page, using our page curation tools, as having some issues to fix. Hello! Interesting page. If you could add a reference indicating that this topic meets WP:GNG that would be a huge improvement! The current refs mention the award, but I don't think they constitute "significant coverage". Happy editing!
The tags can be removed by you or another editor once the issues they mention are addressed. If you have questions, you can leave a comment on my talk page. Or, for more editing help, talk to the volunteers at the Teahouse.

Rollback granted
Hi Brojam. After reviewing your request for "rollbacker", I have enabled rollback on your account. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback:
- Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing Twinkle.
- Rollback should be used to revert clear cases of vandalism only, and not good faith edits.
- Rollback should never be used to edit war.
- If abused, rollback rights can be revoked.
- Use common sense.
If you no longer want rollback, contact me and I'll remove it. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see Wikipedia:Administrators' guide/Rollback (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to leave me a message on my talk page if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! Swarm ♠ 04:38, 2 July 2017 (UTC)

The Flash drafts
I think the drafts (season 1 to 3) are developed well enough to be moved to the mainspace. Are you okay with that? Or should we wait till season 4 premieres? Kailash29792 (talk) 08:27, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
- I would wait a little bit longer. The production and critical sections sections still need some work. I've compiled some good links [4] and will be cleaning them up in the next month so they can be moved before the season 4 premiere. The season 4 article should also be ready by then as well, just need to add all the info from Comic Con. If you have time, could you either add that info since there was a lot about the new tone of the show, plot info, etc. or work on completing the other articles. Thanks. - Brojam (talk) 13:36, 2 August 2017 (UTC)
Tom Holland
Hi Brojam. I see your reasoning for the cluster of changes you made, but: (1) doesn't this guy have any notable works worth listing? Not even Homecoming and The Impossible? Why -- is he still too young to have notable works? (2) In the main photo he looks like he hasn't slept in days; it's pretty unflattering. But I suppose if his publicist wants a better one, he or she will replace it. (3) I agree the note about Star Wars was trivial, but the one about not falling for Hollywood flattery was not -- it's an insight into his personality and shows how he keeps his head on straight despite what he's doing. It all comes down to how lean an article you want. Thanks. CommonPleas 12:31, 3 August 2017 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by CommonPleas (talk • contribs)

Back (TV series) template
Hi User:Brojam, can you please tell me what numbers I have to put in, so the columns are the right size on episode template? Thanks, --Theo Mandela (talk) 14:01, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
- @Theo Mandela: It's a bit hard to tell right now since there are no titles, directors or writers to properly determine how much room each will need. But for the mean time, I would put airdate=16 and viewers=13. - Brojam (talk) 18:42, 30 August 2017 (UTC)

September 2017
Your recent editing history at Ten Days in the Valley shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. pbp 23:10, 12 September 2017 (UTC)
- Hey, Brojam, I'm sorry you got caught up in PBP's latest effort to get at me. You don't deserve it or this template. ----Dr.Margi ✉ 02:02, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
- Since my name was mentioned, you may as well know, Brojam, that DrMargi is an editor with very serious edit-warring, incivility and ownership issues, which have resulted in blocks on four or five locations. But since you're both here now, why not discuss the appropriateness of your respective edits? pbp 02:08, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

DYK for 19-2 (2014 TV series)
On 22 September 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article 19-2 (2014 TV series), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the season two premiere of the Canadian television series 19-2 featured an uninterrupted, 13-minute single-camera sequence of a school shooting, based on the 2006 Dawson College shooting in Montreal? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/19-2 (2014 TV series). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, 19-2 (2014 TV series)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
Freedom Fighters to mainspace?
Given the crossover premise (which seems really cool), I was thinking the Freedom Fighters draft should be moved to the mainspace. We know it has started production, so that isn't an issue, and I don't see any other things holding us back from moving it. Thoughts? @Kailash29792: - Favre1fan93 (talk) 19:55, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
- The fact that the animation already seemed to have progressed well, and Amell, Gustin etc. voicing their characters seemed like indication like the series is way beyond pre-production. Kailash29792 (talk) 20:03, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Favre1fan93: Yes, sounds super cool. Agreed with the move since we now have the casting of Tovey. - Brojam (talk) 20:13, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
- Great all! Will get it into the mainspace momentarily. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:15, 22 September 2017 (UTC)

Re:Back (TV series) template
Hi again User:Brojam, what numbers do you think I should put in Back's template, as it's airing now? And also for Tattoo Fixers too please? Cheers, --Theo Mandela (talk) 03:18, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Theo Mandela: For Back, it seems good as is and since the titles, directors and writers are short its more personal preference, but if you want to include the numbers then it could be something like
|overall=5 |title=20 |director=20 |writer=26 |airdate=16 |viewers=13
. Also note that you shouldn't include the "m" with the viewers and should include two decimal places if the data is available. For Tattoo Fixers, probably something like|overall=6 |series=6 |title=45 |airdate=26 |viewers=17
, but its up to you how much you want for each. Like do you want the title to be extremely large so that the airdate and viewers are a bit more normal. In the end, the numbers should add up to 100. Hope that helps. - Brojam (talk) 00:52, 29 September 2017 (UTC)- (talk page watcher)} You can also use this script, which, when used, will automatically copy the {{Episode table}} codes into your clipboard with the necessary width values included. -- AlexTW 03:43, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
- @AlexTheWhovian: It works for Tattoo Fixers (although not all the same numbers), but doesn't work for Back. In fact, I've seen that happen a couple times when there is only one table, might be a bug. - Brojam (talk) 03:49, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
- Ah, I didn't look at the article. Yep, I see the one episode table. It's not a bug, it's deliberate, as articles with only one episode table don't typically need widths included, we just allow the columns to adjust automatically. Normally, widths are only added when we need to conform the columns of multiple tables. (Now, the "not all the same numbers", that's a bug I need to fix...) -- AlexTW 03:58, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:The Flash (season 4)
A tag has been placed on Draft:The Flash (season 4) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section R2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace except the Category, Template, Wikipedia, Help, or Portal namespaces.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Kailash29792 (talk) 04:51, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
- @Kailash29792: Just letting you know that I have reverted this speedy deletion. As stated in very automated message above my reply, R2 only applies if
it is a redirect from the article namespace to a different namespace
(emphasis mine). Keeping draftspace redirects is acceptable per the RFC held at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)/Archive 135#Draft Namespace Redirects. Cheers. -- AlexTW 05:15, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
Draft:The Flash (season 4) listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Draft:The Flash (season 4).

Regarding that edit of yours that I reverted that you then reverted back
Self-trout I was overcome with the urge to thank you for my accidental slip-up regarding the years, so thanks for pointing that out. I was a little frazzled when I looked at that edit and didn't think to consider the year! Whoops! - Purplewowies (talk) 18:08, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
- No worries, I had also not seen the year and changed it, before realizing and changing it back again. - Brojam (talk) 18:16, 3 October 2017 (UTC)
Re 'Lost in Space (2018 TV series)'
Re your reversions, I accept the IMDB situation and will find other sources - I can assure you the information is accurate. However, re "no need to mention timeline of casting" I would challenge that your feeling here is 'personal opinion' and that it is information people would like to know, it has value and doesn't violate Wikipedia policy as it is fully cited. RokkoRokkoRokkanno (talk) 02:03, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
- @RokkoRokkoRokkanno: Per WP:TVCAST, we do not give a timeline of the casting in this section. You could however include the information as prose in a subsection of Production titled Casting per WP:TVPRODUCTION. - Brojam (talk) 02:20, 9 October 2017 (UTC)
- Thank you, Brojam. I appreciate links to the TV show layout, I will familiarize myself with this before I start work again. I did remove the link you had put in as you linked to the original series Robot, which will NOT be appearing in that form. The new robot is a bipedal humanoid machine.

List of episodes
I've been editing television articles on here since 2010 - and since 2014 on this account. When the second season of a show begins to air, that is when the list of episodes article is created. This has always been the precedent and there has never been an issue with it. Sometimes it takes a while for someone to actually create it, but once someone creates the article and the show is currently airing the second season, then that is when we do it. I would not describe my edit as "bold" as it's been done numerous times this TV season, and in every season past that I've been here. Take a look at the edit history of The Goldbergs and see when that article was created, or even look at The Blacklist (that article was created during the first season). And even looking at more current examples, shows that are currently airing their second seasons already have an episode list article: Designated Survivor, Star, Speechless, MacGyver, Superior Donuts, The Good Place, The Mick, etc. Any other show whose list of episodes article hasn't been made yet has nothing to do with policy, and it's completely to do with the fact that simply no one has done it yet. You also mention that there's not enough content to warrant a full episode list article, so I'll direct you to: Manhattan (23 episodes), Sherlock (12 episodes), The Catch (20 episodes), Scream Queens (23 episodes), Penny Dreadful (27 episodes), Brotherhood (29 episodes), Da Vinci's Demons (28 episodes), The Knick (20 episodes), Looking (18 episodes), Togetherness (16 episodes), Getting On (18 episodes), Carnivàle (24 episodes), The Newsroom (25 episodes), Rome (22 episodes), and I could go on and on and on.
I know you might be new to editing TV shows here on Wikipedia, but please believe me when I tell you that you are in the wrong here. I'm going to revert your edits one more time, and please don't continue to edit-war. What you are doing is completely unnecessary and you have no precedent or consensus to continue reverting as described above. Best, Rswallis10 (talk) 20:02, 16 October 2017 (UTC)
- I can personally and safely say that your methods are far outdated. Please contribute to Talk:Riverdale (2017 TV series)#Creating Article for Episode list and Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Television#List of episodes - when to split. Rswallis10, your edits have now been reverted by no less than three editors. Cease your edit-warring and take it to the discussions. -- AlexTW 00:26, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
- @AlexTheWhovian: I HAVE "taken it to discussions". I've wrote on the article talk page and the discussion at the manual of style. My edits have precedence. Deleting a List of Episodes for a show that is in its second season has no precedence anywhere on this Wiki. This has never happened before ever. 00:29, 17 October 2017 (UTC)
- As has been explain, simply because you are discussion it, does not give you a right to edit-war. Your disputed edits have been reverted. Stop while you're ahead. -- AlexTW 00:31, 17 October 2017 (UTC)

The Flash
Can you point out to me where on The Flash Season 4 poster dark red is more prominent? If you use TinEye, you'll see that the dark colours elsewhere on the poster "bleed" into the red and present a dark red that is not actually present. Technology isn't always right, sometimes the human eye is. There is also nothing that actually states that the season colours need to be drastically different to each other. -- AlexTW 02:13, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- The dark red is actually quite present throughout the suit, in addition to being in the background around the suit. [9] While it's not stated that season colours should be different, it does help the readers when they can be. Which in this case, can be done. Why wouldn't we choose the one that clearly differentiates the two seasons? Not that it matters that much since neither of these will be the season's final colour anyway. -- Brojam (talk) 02:45, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for that link. It supports that I stated about it simply being the darker shades of the suit blending in with the red and other darker areas, to create a dark red that isn't really there nor prominent (A difference of 2.3% is barely anything - if it was 23%, then you'd have a point). The two colours of the Season 3 and the Season 4 colour I attempted to use, I already find them to be rather different enough. And it does matter much, given that we'll be using this colour for at least the next half-year. I can start a discussion of it on the article's talk page and gain some other editor's views, which might be the best option. -- AlexTW

On 9 November 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article J. K. Rowling's Wizarding World, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status.

"Parenthood" template needs to be changed - can you help?
Hi - I see you contribute to articles on the Parenthood TV series, so maybe you could help with this? The Parenthood template, which is shown at the bottom of Parenthood TV series articles, lists the first & last episode titles for season 2 (but not for other seasons). I don't think the episode titles are necessary, and tried earlier to change the template, but couldn't activate it so I reverted my changes. If you could help out with that, it would be much appreciated. Thanks for your time in reading this. -- Bwefler (talk) 22:33, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
- @Bwefler: We only include articles in templates and not redirects so it is correct to only have the first two episodes of season 2 in the template and not the others since those are the only two episodes in the series that have separate articles. - Brojam (talk) 07:37, 27 November 2017 (UTC)

Riverdale Revert
As per your revert here, I will point out that UPCOMING doesn't cover listing an air date that is actually referenced through a reliable source. Perhaps you missed the referenced episode title, which offers the air date? That reference explicitly notes that the season extends into 2018. Therefore, the information added by another that I reinserted back into the article was cited, and not covered by UPCOMING.
I am loathe to redo the application of the year, so perhaps it would be more beneficial if you were to self-revert? - Jack Sebastian (talk) 16:11, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
- @Jack Sebastian:
A section heading for the upcoming season should be added to the page only when an episode table can be created for the season. However, years should not be added to said section heading until an episode actually airs in that calendar year. For example, for the eleventh season of NCIS, the heading on its list of episodes page would have been "Season 11" until September 23, 2013. After episode 1 aired on September 24, 2013, it would be changed to "Season 11 (2013)". And finally, once episode 12 aired on January 7, 2014, it would be changed once again to "Season 11 (2013–14)".
How much more clear do you need it to be? - Brojam (talk) 00:47, 17 December 2017 (UTC)
Supergirl revert
I would point out that what a plot summary is not is a blow-by-blow recreation of the viewing experience - ie. the plot summary is a series of broad strokes, not George Seurat’s A Sunday on La Grande Jatte. As per PLOTSUMNOT:
- "The point of a summary is not to reproduce the experience—it's to explain the story. If the original is non-linear or experimental in its structure, the article should state that fact in prose, not through regurgitation of the plot"
The point is, the word count for an episode summary is not an electric fence to get as close to as possible. Economy is key. It isn't for covering lesser plot points which the reader can find by accessing the See Also or external linkage for more detailed reviews and summaries. We aren't a useless bucket for trivia. - Jack Sebastian (talk) 16:23, 16 December 2017 (UTC)
