  • It’s unusual to see that the shorts are above the episode list, most that I have encountered would be at the bottom of lists. An example would be another Disney Junior show, Spidey and His Amazing Friends (2021 TV series). Although the shorts came first, like with most shows, it would be at the bottom. Do shorts really count as official episodes? I don't see them being official episodes, their more like promotional material, like with the Spidey shorts.

    For things such as spin-off webisodes, that would be standard practice. But these shorts were deliberately produced and intended to preceed the regular series. I believe there was a discussion concerning listing the shorts first for Star Wars Rebels, but I'd have to go digging for it. -- Alex_21 TALK 09:49, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
    Okay. But for YJA, I want to hear other thoughts from users to see if they prefer the shorts to be above the episode list or not. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 12:12, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
    I'm also happy to hear further opinions. -- Alex_21 TALK 13:45, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Since the shorts are before the series proper, they should be listed first. Much like List of Star Wars Rebels episodes. If the shorts came after the first episode aired, then their location in the article could be discussed. We should be presenting to the reader chronological info as much as we can. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:42, 28 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Aside from the title of the first short, when was there any information that the events in the shorts took place before the events of the actual show? Talking about the continuity of the series here. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 01:04, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
When Favre talks about chronological order, I believe he means chronological in their release. -- Alex_21 TALK 01:43, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Probably, but what about continuity-wise? BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 02:01, 29 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
Yes, I meant real-world chronological info, and in this specific case, by release date. We also don't write from an WP:INUNIVERSE perspective so continuity-wise has little determining factor in the placement of the tables. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 02:41, 30 April 2023 (UTC)Reply
