Your draft article, Draft:Arrow (season 3)

 

Hello, AlexTheWhovian. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Arrow".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been nominated for deletion. If you plan on working on it further, or editing it to address the issues raised if it was declined, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}}, {{db-draft}}, or {{db-g13}} code.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion by following the instructions at this link. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. » Shadowowl | talk 16:32, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

I think it's better if we take the draft to the mainspace, since it has enough content to warrant a mainspace article (it's not like anyone is aiming for GA). --Kailash29792 (talk) 16:44, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
It does not. Two lines of Production does not an article make. It simply needs some hard work, then it can be moved. -- AlexTW 16:53, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
I don't know of anyone who can help expand it; someone like Brojam can, at best, drop sources to use. And someone better know how to fix those invalid refs in the draft. --Kailash29792 (talk) 17:06, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 5.jpg

 

Thanks for uploading File:Brooklyn Nine-Nine Season 5.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:14, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Precious

addiction to Doctor Who

Thank you for quality articles around TV series, such as Doctor Who (series 1) to 3, for Sense8, for page moves and template work, with planned fixes, for improving color contrast for accessibility, for remembering Sandy, - Alex, you are an awesome Wikipedian!

Ratings templates

FYI, DownFame has been busy recreating templates deleted after the 27 June 2017 discussion. odd, because DownFame participated in that discussion, so should be aware that these were deleted for a reason. Frietjes (talk) 18:27, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

@Frietjes: How unfortunate. I noticed that some weeks back, and speedy-nominated those that had already been deleted before, under G4. This template really needs to go... -- AlexTW 00:10, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
there are dozens more. I nominated a batch at TfD. Frietjes (talk) 12:28, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
@Frietjes: Voted for deletion. I really wish the template itself would just be deleted. -- AlexTW 12:44, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
I agree, but at the very least, we don't need to put these in templates for use on multiple pages. and there are so many more to have deleted. Frietjes (talk) 12:50, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
Looking at their full contributions and performing some copy, paste and regex, this is the complete list of templates they have created:
Templates
As I said at the TFD, the editor is just spamming templates; they are, for the most part, not even implementing them. -- AlexTW 13:09, 23 June 2018 (UTC)
@Frietjes: Take a look at their contribution history now. Even more. -- AlexTW 08:18, 26 June 2018 (UTC)
which new ones have been created? the last new one that I see is Template:Fresh Off The Boat ratings which was created before I started the deletion discussion. Frietjes (talk) 12:08, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

Aired episodes

I monitor a couple of error tracking categories and am trying to work out why List of Murdoch Mysteries episodes is showing an error ("Expression error: Unexpected ( operator") in the last paragraph of the lead. It is due to this:

{{Aired episodes|2018|3|19|showpage=Murdoch Mysteries|title=Murdoch Mysteries|specials=3|finished=11}}

A bonus problem is why User:AlexTheWhovian/script-updateepisodes.js is in hidden Category:ParserFunction errors and Category:Pages with script errors. Examining the HTML source of that page shows it includes:

Lua error in Module:Template_parameter_value at line 26: attempt to index a nil value.

I'm hoping you can work out what's going on. Johnuniq (talk) 05:17, 23 June 2018 (UTC)

@Johnuniq: Cheers. I've reverted List of Murdoch Mysteries episodes back to its original state; basically, {{Aired episodes}} pulls the number of episodes from the parent article and expects it to be a number, but Murdoch Mysteries also has extra alongside the number, so it doesn't work properly. I'll take a look at my Update Episodes script as well. Thanks. -- AlexTW 05:48, 23 June 2018 (UTC)

"Episodes...yet to air"

This is the just another reason I am decreasing TV edits. If people cannot tell an episode has aired by looking at the airdate and the infobox's number of episodes, sure, let's flood the reference section and stretch the page. — Wyliepedia @ 02:30, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

@CAWylie: Except that it doesn't spam the references, because it's the same ref, so it's still one line. Go ahead, go check. You'll see. I'll wait here. -- AlexTW 03:31, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

Raven's Home LoE

Is it really not in WP:MOSTV that cast info should not be in the episode plot summaries (especially below it)? I could have sworn it's been discussed. - Brojam (talk) 06:13, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

@Brojam: Take a look at the talk page, they really don't like us. As for the cast info, yes, it has been agreed that guest cast should not be included in summaries, that's the WP:CONSENSUS. Good work for implementing it. -- AlexTW 06:15, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
That's what I thought. It really should be added into MOS:TVPLOT because I've seen it done in many articles, in particular the Disney series. Oh I know, I've been reverted a few times for trying to re-merge LoE and season pages that totally didn't justify their splits per the consensus. - Brojam (talk) 06:26, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
@Brojam: I agree. Perhaps raise it at WT:MOSTV? A lot of Disney series are edited by the same group, who don't feel the need to conform to the consensus. I'm trying to discuss the re-merge of a LoE at the moment, with an editor who's supporting the split there but was against early-splitting in the MOS discussion... Doing my head in a bit. -- AlexTW 06:30, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

U.S. to US

Since your recent mass-AWB changes cited MOS:US, I feel like it needs to be pointed out that it says retain U.S. in American or Canadian English articles in which it is already established, unless there is a good reason to change it. I'll also point out that, as far as I'm aware, there has never been a community-wide RfC to determine if "US" usage should be adopted at all. Using AWB in this way is against the WP:AWBRULES #2 and #3 - you should have sought consensus prior to embarking on that effort. I'm bringing this here in the hopes you can see the problem with imposing one usage against the guideline and self-revert. -- Netoholic @ 20:42, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

State the policy that says an RFC is required? No? The general consensus in the cited discussion was that US was preferred, so I did seek (and gain) consensus prior to my effort. Your personal opinion is noted, thank you. (I get it, though; people always wants to comment only when something is put into action, and they're a bit mad that they personally missed the discussion.) -- AlexTW 21:12, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
You probably got the ping, but I've requested revocation of AWB access based on this at Wikipedia:Requests for permissions/AutoWikiBrowser. -- Netoholic @ 22:05, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
Discussion has been moved to Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents#Removal of AWB Access request. -- Netoholic @ 23:17, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Re: Ang Probinsyano (season 2)

Good day AlexTheWhovian! Thank you for editing Ang Probinsyano (season 1), Ang Probinsyano (season 4) and Ang Probinsyano (season 5) into the format you did for Ang Probinsyano (season 3). The edits you introduced made for a more uniform look to the seasons of the show and it renders beuatifully on the List of Ang Probinsyano episodes page.

However, you forgot to do the same with the Ang Probinsyano (season 2) page. That's why I'm dropping by to ask you to do the same for said page since its the last entry into the show that hasn't been converted into the format you introduced some 3 weeks ago. Thank you. Gardo Versace (talk) 02:08, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Changing U.S. to US in season articles

I have just reverted your edits in the season articles for BCS & The Walking Dead (also GoT) upon reading about your recent activity regarding MOS:US. MOS:US should not be used in American English articles. You didn't gain consensus prior to making them changes and because of that, you violated WP:AWBRULES. The Optimistic One (talk) 04:06, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Good job, kiddo - you didn't even know of either of those links before today, you're just jumping on the hype train 'cause you're a tiny bit annoyed that I caught you copying my user page. Go away. -- AlexTW 13:21, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Error tracking categories

I mentioned that User:AlexTheWhovian/script-updateepisodes.js is in the hidden Category:ParserFunction errors and Category:Pages with script errors error tracking categories here. The categories can be seen if the preference to show hidden categories is enabled, and can also be seen in the page information regardless of preferences.

I have finally got around to investigating the issue. I have no idea why but MediaWiki seems to parse the content of a js page as wikitext. Possibly that is a bug that should be fixed but meanwhile the page has three comments that contain empty templates and the errors are due to those mentions. Would you please workaround the issue by searching for {{ and replacing it with something that avoids the problem. For example, {Aired episodes} or Template:Aired_episodes. It is useful to empty extraneous stuff from the error tracking categories to make it easier to see items that need fixing. Johnuniq (talk) 03:50, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Jessica Jones seasons

The other Netflix series with 3 seasons also have their own category. Should go ahead and delete those too if 3 is too few.★Trekker (talk) 14:01, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

Also, I feel like I should add that it isn't allowed to empty a category by removing it from a bunch of articles and then try to have it deleted for being empty.★Trekker (talk) 13:36, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
@*Treker: And the policy that states this is? -- AlexTW 13:40, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
I can't find the a page right now, but it's definitely something that's been stated during many deletion discussions I've seen and it's obviously the case because you're creating the fact that it's empty, it's beyond disingenuous and the guidline at the "critera for speedy deletion page" says "This criterion applies to categories that have been unpopulated for at least seven days." Which clearly isn't the case when you empty the thing yourself manually. If you really want it to be deleted do it the right way then, not that you cited any specific page when you claimed that it had too few articles.★Trekker (talk) 13:51, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
So, there's no policy. Thanks. -- AlexTW 13:53, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
Doing things the right way is hard am I right, just having it your way is much easier. Just make something true if it isn't! Even if it's pretty much cheating and false as hell.★Trekker (talk) 13:57, 9 July 2018 (UTC)

I just wanna categorize things a little

I didn't mean to make edits to the list of Riverdale episodes it's just that I was only trying to put the seasons into different sections cause I think that the edit would help that and many other articles out Emilyiship'05 (talk) 13:51, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

@Emilyiship: They are in different sections: sub-sections, exactly how they're meant to be. -- AlexTW 13:54, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

Bug with Based on template

There seems to be a bug with {{based on}} causing there to be no space after the 'by' when there are multiple creators, which is what I think these editors were trying to fix with these edits [1] [2]. - Brojam (talk) 02:40, 8 July 2018 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Doctor Who (series 4)

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Doctor Who (series 4) you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria.   This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by Legobot, on behalf of Adamstom.97 -- Adamstom.97 (talk) 22:20, 1 July 2018 (UTC)

Hi Alex, just had a question for you here before I continue with this. The current structure of the article is fine, but having a look through the other season articles for the show it looks like there is a bit of inconsistency in terms of structure and section layout. If you were hoping to get this to a good topic at some point in the future, then you would probably want to go through and change this just to make sure it all lines up. I am happy to review this article as is, but if you do want to go ahead and make some change then I could wait until that was all sorted before giving my review. Just let me know what you want to do. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:48, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
@Adamstom.97: Hey, thanks for taking it up. I just got back from a week of visiting family, so I'll look into this as soon as possible. Cheers. -- AlexTW 10:38, 6 July 2018 (UTC)
Hey, Adam. I think I'm good on the layout for the specific review. Cheers. -- AlexTW 05:35, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
Okay, I'll just get on with the review then. Should get it sorted within a day or so. - adamstom97 (talk) 13:34, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Season color

Hi Alex can you tell me how I can find the colors of TV season artwork please? Like how someone got the exact background color from The Goldbergs (season 3) or the sky on the cover of The Walking Dead: A New Frontier. Is there a tool on Wikipedia or somewhere else? Asking because I've seen some shows which colors don't match to their DVDs I'd like to fix.--90.193.151.125 (talk) 13:26, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Hey there. Personally, I use TinEye Labs' Colour Extractor. You load in the URL of the image, or drag-and-drop the image onto the site, and it extracts the main colours of the image. Try it with any image! You can then use Snook to make sure that the colour is WCAG 2 AAA Compliant (Contrast Ratio > 7) with either white or black (as you can see, the preloaded example is). -- AlexTW 14:15, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
I just used it and it works great. Many thanks!--2A02:C7D:892B:3D00:6D0A:BF8A:99B3:3C98 (talk) 18:52, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

BRD & Status Quo

Hi, just to follow up from the recent reverts at Constantine: City of Demons: the status quo you mention is the article as it was before the edits were made (check out the Status quo ante bellum article linked to at the policy you quoted)... As you can see, I found the edit to be contentious, and reverted it. Reframing my revert as being the edit itself (rather than just being a reversion), because a discussion had been started yesterday on another article is... quite a novel interpretation! A bit concerned whether this is the kind of approach you've taken before/likely to take again, especially when dealing with new editors? ‑‑YodinT 14:52, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

(talk page stalker) I am not totally knowledgeable about this particular article, but it looks like you made a bold edit and were completely happy to follow the BRD cycle (as stated in your edit summary) ... until Alex actually reverted you and then you decided that you wanted to revert him straight back. That's not how BRD works. If you say you want to follow BRD then it is up to you to stop editing once your bold change has been reverted and take the issue to the talk page. - adamstom97 (talk) 21:21, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
Hmm, I see what you mean, I didn't keep the revert text in the edit description, and said I was 'removing' rather than 'reverting'. From my perspective, I didn't do any bold edit: I made a revert of a bold edit that had been made earlier that day, only to have my own revert reverted, so I returned it again to the status quo while contributing to the discussion that was pointed out (I'd waited for the original bold editor to start a discussion until I found out people had talked about it on another page). Can see how my comment would look kind of hypocritical if I just turned up and boldly deleted that line if it had been there forever! ‑‑YodinT 22:25, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

File:Once Upon a Time Season 7.jpg

 

Hi, I'm RonBot, a script that checks new non-free file uploads. I have found that the subject image that you recently uploaded was more than 5% in excess of the Non-free content guideline size of 100,000 pixels. I have tagged the image for a standard reduction, which (for jpg/gif/png/svg files) normally happens within a day. Please check the reduced image, and make sure that the image is not excessively corrupted. Other files will be added to Category:Wikipedia non-free file size reduction requests for manual processing. There is a full seven-day period before the original oversized image will be hidden; during that time you might want to consider editing the original image yourself (perhaps an initial crop to allow a smaller reduction or none at all). A formula for calculation the desired size can be found at WP:Image resolution, along with instructions on how to tag the image in the rare cases that it requires an oversized image (typically about 0.2% of non-free uploads are tagged as necessarily oversized). Please contact the bot owner if you have any questions, or you can ask them at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content. RonBot (talk) 17:20, 2 August 2018 (UTC)

The 100

It took a lot of effort (lots and lots of commercials too) because I was thinking it happened later in the episode, but I found the specific time two characters (and the subtitles for one of them) used the word "Trig". That's just one use, and it's a primary source and we're still guilty of WP:OR but it seems pretty clear what's going on and I hope that's enough.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 18:03, 5 August 2018 (UTC)

EpisodeTable color constrasts

Hey Alex. This is something very minor, but looking at the Luke Cage (season 2) table with its color, I noticed in the header the column lines are virtually not there. Do you think that is an WP:ACCESS issue at all, and if it is, something we should adjust, given the color used? Is that even a parameter you have the ability to control? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 13:45, 14 May 2018 (UTC)

I'm not sure if it's a WP:ACCESS issue, but it can certainly be fixed by applying a border to each of the header cells, like so. We'd need to work out at which contrast a border should be applied. -- AlexTW 14:01, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
Cool. I think that seems better. It might not even have to be black, but maybe just a darker grey. Let me know how I can help you in implementing it. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 14:13, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
I would need to know/work out what contrast I'd need to apply a different border at; the default border is #A2A9B1. -- AlexTW 23:02, 14 May 2018 (UTC)
(talk page stalker)Would it work to have the borders change to black when the text does, contrast wise? - adamstom97 (talk) 09:56, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
I mean, we could, but it seems to work fine for cases like Brooklyn Nine-Nine (season 1). -- AlexTW 10:12, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
No worries, just thought that might be an easy fix. - adamstom97 (talk) 10:48, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
You might be onto something, though. I made the border match the text in the testcases here; original then modified for 100 random colours. Doesn't look too bad. -- AlexTW 11:16, 15 May 2018 (UTC)
Indeed, that does look pretty good. I say if you want to make the change, go for it. For cases, such as the Brooklyn Nine-Nine example, where it doesn't look bad with the grey, it might take some adjusting, but overall it might make everything look a little better. Have the heading be its own thing (with white or black text/lines) and leave the episode rows to have the grey. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 19:11, 15 May 2018 (UTC)

Hey Alex. I've been away for a bit, and just remembered this. Any objection to implementing what you tested in the sandbox? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:26, 2 June 2018 (UTC)

I'd completely forgotten about this! All implemented now. Cheers. -- AlexTW 09:56, 3 June 2018 (UTC)

@Favre1fan93 and Adamstom.97: But alas, Brojam reverted it[3]. -- AlexTW 03:35, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

Why don't you just make the inner border (between each column of the header row) white when there's a contrast issue with the current border color ( #A2A9B1 ). Like this. - Brojam (talk) 03:51, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
It's possible. Set border-left and border-right of each cell to the alternate colour of black or white, and then border-left and border-right of the whole table to default. -- AlexTW 03:57, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
Can't the code Alex previously implement, just be applied to the inner borders, so it still matches the text color (and isn't defaulted to black or white when the contrast is off)? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 02:14, 5 June 2018 (UTC)

I haven't forgotten about this. Just working on a million things on- and off-site at the same time. -- AlexTW 04:17, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Game of Thrones (season 2) critical response graph

Recently, an editor updated the Rotten Tomatoes graph for this season, causing the graph to glitch, leaving yellow streaks across the graph. This glitch is nothing to do with the editor who made the edit, and changing any of the numbers appears to fix the glitch. I was wondering if you could figure out what's happened as I've tried, by briefly partially reverting the edit to no avail. Cheers TedEdwards 15:45, 1 August 2018 (UTC)

@TedEdwards: I fixed it with a small decimal addition, the effect of which will be negligible. I need to look into why it's doing that... Cheers. -- AlexTW 05:04, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

Doctor Who Confidential

After viewing Doctor Who Confidential I have decided to fix up the article a bit as it seems a bit messy to me. I plan to eventually publish the changes I've made at User:TheDoctorWho/sandbox5 into the article, of course after I do more converting into episode tables, watch, more Confidential, and do a little work on the rest of the article. Two questions though, for starters the Series Overview seems a bit bulky any ideas on how it could be simplified/less confusing? Secondly, since the episodes are non-fiction I'm having a bit trouble writing the beginning of the episode summaries, do you have any ideas of what to use other than "This episode primarily covers"? Thanks! TheDoctorWho (talk) 10:13, 3 August 2018 (UTC)

@TheDoctorWho: Hey, nice work! I'd leave the specials and +1's out of the overview, just like we do at List of Doctor Who episodes (2005–present)#Series overview, and add a similar note to what's on that page ("The following table dictates the season or series in question; singular specials are not included in episode counts or viewer totals."). As for the episode summaries, just leave them out; what the episodes focus on is rather obvious, and that's covered by the "Doctor Who Episode" column section. -- AlexTW 13:44, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
  Done I left a few of the episode summaries in there, mainly the ones that don't tie into a specific Doctor Who episode. That definitely cleared up the series overview. Thanks for the advice! TheDoctorWho (talk) 06:56, 5 August 2018 (UTC)
@TheDoctorWho: Awesome. Let me know when you've implemented the changes; there's a few formatting edits I'd like to do, but I'll wait until you're finished the new version with your edits first. Cheers. -- AlexTW 05:02, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
Will do! TheDoctorWho (talk) 05:11, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
I've just implemented the edits. Feel free to do your thing. TheDoctorWho (talk) 09:54, 8 August 2018 (UTC)
@TheDoctorWho:   Done -- AlexTW 03:40, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

@TheDoctorWho: Coming back to this... I think we should include the specials in the overview table, as the numbers don't match up in the "No. in series" columns. For example, Series 6 gives 13 episodes in the overview, but 14 plus a special in the actual table. Same with Series 2, 3 and 4. What are your thoughts? -- AlexTW 01:59, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

Sorry it took me so long to get back to you, I think that makes perfect sense. I'll leave it to you to decide how it's included. TheDoctorWho (talk) 03:51, 19 August 2018 (UTC)

A lot of articles are unreadable thanks to you.

Currently you've caused problems with articles that use Japanese episode list templates. Japanese shows include kanji and romaji in the episode titles aside from the English titles which is why the template is different in the first place. Your efforts in suggesting the deletion of the template has caused the episodes list in a lot of articles became unreadable. Please fix this problem asap. Edit: Some anime have episodes that should be watch in release order OR chronological order. This is why the sortable function in Japanese episodes list is important. Again, please fix this (all the episode titles have disappear from the articles right now). Tsukishimastarrk (talk) 07:17, 16 August 2018 (UTC)

I guess you can't read. If you actually went to the discussion, you would see that I suggested to merge it, not delete it. Are they unreadable because of the "The template below (Japanese episode list) is being considered for deletion. See templates for discussion to help reach a consensus." notice? Sorry, can't remove that, has to be there. "all the episode titles have disappear from the articles right now"? Not my change. -- AlexTW 08:28, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
