Talk:Radiotopia

Sourced description of shows

[1] Readers expect a description of the podcast in the parent list. That's how summary style works. Also you merged these sentences to their own article without crediting their source, which, besides bad practice and a violation of WP's attribution-required license, is plagiarism. If I thought the split was warranted, I would have done it myself, but it still wouldn't excuse leaving no description here.  czar 19:40, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Started timeline

Similar to the one on Gimlet Media, this one shows how long each show has been around and when they joined Radiotopia with potential for shows leaving the collective or, as in the case with Millennial, ending entirely.

This chart is incomplete and some dates are may need confirming. I leave it up to some other beautiful nerds to add on. Morganfitzp (talk) 20:54, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

I think it looks wonderful, Morganfitzp. I was thinking maybe the bar for Showcase could be treated differently, since it isn't a show per say, as you know, but rather a feature of Radiotopia. Maybe divide it into the shows it is made up of? E.g. numbered sections of the bar and a numbered list of the actual shows in smaller font size under "Showcase" in the lefthand column? Or something.

Will see what I can do. I'm no computer programmer, but this will be a good challenge for me to hone a skill at using this chart interface. And I have until Ways of Hearing ends and the next series begins to get that started. Morganfitzp (talk) 14:19, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

PS: I made a similar chart on Gimlet Media and added little color bars to indicate season length. Perhaps something similar could happen for Showcase. Morganfitzp (talk) 14:19, 21 August 2017 (UTC)

Oh yes, that looks great. :) Genomlysning (talk) 11:14, 23 August 2017 (UTC)
