The Husbands of River Song

Hello... you can see why various editors keep changing "It is the first episode since "The Snowmen" not to feature Jenna Coleman..." to "It is the first episode since "The Angels Take Manhattan" not to feature Jenna Coleman..." I hope? They are focussing on "not to feature...". TATM didn't feature her, and this is the first one, since then, also not to feature her. It depends which way you read the sentence - you could read your preferred way as saying that "The Snowmen" didn't feature her. It probably needs rewording because I suspect many editors in the next few years are going to bat that one back and forth!

NB: It's also the first one since "The Bells of Saint John" and the first one since "The Rings of Akhaten" and so on and so on not to feature her, so it possibly makes more sense if the reading is per the IP's view. :)

Maybe something like "This is the first episode since Jenna Coleman's departure in..." and just omit the other info, which isn't really necessary for this article? Just a thought. Stephenb (Talk) 07:58, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

@Stephenb: Fair point; I've modified the text to be a bit clearer on her inclusion in "The Snowmen". Alex|The|Whovian 08:10, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

TPO guidelines state you should stop editing another's comments on a talk page if there is an objection, and I objected. Don't understand why you didn't just edit your own comment in the first place and respect my wishes if you had such an issue with it. Brocicle (talk) 11:44, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

List of The Flash (2014 TV series) episodes

I often sit here and just shake my head at the antics of some editors.[1] How can they not realise that something is seriously wrong with what they did? Have these people never heard of capital letters? Have they only ever used SMS (or should that be "sms"?) from birth and not picked up a pen, pencil or read a book, newspaper, advertisement......? Were they not at school at any point during their lives? sigh.... --AussieLegend (✉) 08:20, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

Amen. It annoys me to no end, and most of them are probably only teens that are just here to mess thing up. And apparently they have nothing better to do on Christmas. Alex|The|Whovian 09:22, 25 December 2015 (UTC)

For your work

The Xmas special starts in a 15 minutes for me. It is always tough avoiding Dr Who wikiarticles so that I don't encounter spoilers. Cheers and enjoy your weekend. MarnetteD|Talk 01:49, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

@MarnetteD: Many thanks! I've already seen it - no spoilers, but you're in for a treat! Alex|The|Whovian 01:51, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

It was a treat ATW. After the more serious tone of the last two Xmas specials this was a great deal of fun as well. Was it just me or were the some Douglas Adams Hitchhiker references. The name Hydroflax and all the stuff about the restaurant sure made me think of DA anyway. I don't follow twitter or fan forums so I don't know if it was done on purpose or was simply a coincidence. The pocket holder with all the Dr's pics was fab as well. Do you think they will be smart enough to market that. I'm sure it would be a big seller! It would need a few blank sleeves for future use though :-) Cheers. MarnetteD|Talk 03:39, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Mistake

I saw the first two season three eps of Defiance are together instead of two seperate eps when I was looking at all the eps on Amazon, iTunes, even Syfy on demand. World We Seize and The Last Unicorns both count as Ep. 1 due to the fact that they both aired as a two hour season premiere just like the pilot.72.64.207.76 (talk) 03:02, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

Not according to the official DVD release: "All 13 episodes from Season 3 of Defiance are available on Blu-ray and DVD". Alex|The|Whovian 03:05, 26 December 2015 (UTC)

The Doctor's regenerations: bold text

Hi. I gather that the bold text on the page listing the Doctor's regenerations was removed due to MOS, but which specific MOS is it as I am a bit confused when it comes to MOS (so please forgive my lack of knowledge in this). Wouldn't keeping the bold text make it easier to navigate the list due to the large amount of text in that section? – Nick Mitchell 98 ^talk 03:33, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

@Nick Mitchell 98: Glad to explain. MOS:BOLD states that we should "avoid using boldface for emphasis in article text" (under "When not to use boldface"), which is what the usage of the bold in Regeneration (Doctor Who) was used for. If anything, italics can be used for emphasis of the Doctors in question. Alex|The|Whovian 03:38, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

@AlexTheWhovian: Thanks for explaining it to me. I understand now. I think it would be best to not bother with italics as that just looks a bit strange. – Nick Mitchell 98 ^talk 03:40, 27 December 2015 (UTC)

Invalid warnings

If you care to look at the edit history of Companion (Doctor Who) you will find that my position was supported by 2 other editors and being reverted by a single one (prior to your revert).

Policy vs. guideline

Regarding this, note that the MOS is not a policy, but a guideline. – nyuszika7h (talk) 14:04, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

Disagree. We do not include it in any form if episodes have not aired in that particular year, hence policy. Guidelines are something that can be bent if necessary - this cannot. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AlexTheWhovian (talk • contribs) 21:35, 29 December 2015 (UTC)

Technically, it's still a guideline, even though there doesn't appear to be any reason to justify a WP:IAR exception. Personally, I'd just drop the "policy" and say "Per WP:TVUPCOMING", which is already common practice. nyuszika7h (talk) 14:53, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Fair enough. Thanks for the advice! Alex|The|Whovian 22:06, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

Simultaneous US and UK broadcast of Sherlock: The Abominable Bride

Hello AlexTheWhovian. I noticed that you reverted my edit to the Special (2016) section of Sherlock (TV series). To summarise for others, I added broadcast and cinematic information about the American half of this jointly simultaneous release. The reason you provided for its immediate deletion was:

Information concerning international (in regards to the UK) release should be noted under Broadcast.

I am always more than happy to comply with policies, rules, guidelines, and manuals of style on Wikipedia or elsewhere, but I feel in this case your wholesale removal of my edit was both drastic and unwarranted. I offer these points for you to consider here:

• This is a co-production on one hand by a Welsh company for a Welsh company (Hartswood for BBC Wales) and on the other hand by an American company for an American company (WGBH for PBS/Masterpiece). The simultaneous première was broadcast in those two territories. I did not add information about a secondary derivative purchase and re-broadcast to a territory uninvolved in its production.

I will state my "lack of the usual nationalistic conflict of interest" right up front. I feel I am genuinely unbiased in regard to these two territories. I was born in Llwchr, Abertawe, Wales, and reside in Martinez, California, USA.

• Your requirement has not been deemed necessary for any of the other episodes or episodic series of this set of works.

At the start of the Episodes section, the British and American broadcast dates share the same sentence - not once but in the 2nd, 3rd 4th and twice in the 6th sentence of the opening paragraph. That pattern is repeated to a lesser extent throughout this article. The article lead even daringly flaunts near total proximity of the words BAFTA and Emmy, despite their origins on different sides of the Awards Ocean.

• There is not now and never has been a Broadcast section or even a Broadcast subsection in this article.

This means that you require creation of a new section called Broadcast that contains broadcast information about one of the co-producers but not the other. Apart from the lack of any reason to separate the two co-producers, and apart from the fact that your suggested section title applies equally (and in this case simultaneously) to both of them, did you have an honest reason for picking just one for relegation? Reassure me that darker motives were not involved.

• I was unable to locate the origin within Wikipedia or determine a common sense derivation for your requirement, particularly governing cases like this episode, with its "simultaneous" television broadcast and "simultaneous" cinematic showings in the territories of the co-producing entities.

Even though they conform to the style and format of the rest of this article, I did not instantly restore my recent additions. This is to respectfully give you a chance to respond (on my talk page if in some detail, or here if merely a brief (and brave) concession) with references to the specific policies, rules, guidelines or style suggestions that lie behind your requirement. Perhaps you can provide actual examples of a discussion elsewhere resulting in a consensus of similar compartmentalisation of otherwise equally relevant information.

• The co-producers of this particular episode (BBC Wales and PBS Masterpiece) issued a joint statement on 24 October 2015 in which they were proud to have been able to comply with fans' wishes with a simultaneous broadcast in both co-producing territories at 9:00 pm on 1 January 2016.

Your new rule prohibits Wikipedia from conveying information about that simultaneity or even the co-producer's concomitant pride, at least in consecutive sentences in the same section, for example.

It seems rather arbitrary to me to introduce a new and previously unnecessary rule at this very late stage, after the simultaneous television broadcasts at 9:00 pm on new Years' Day 2016, but before the simultaneous cinematic showings scheduled for next Tuesday and Wednesday 5 and 6 January 2016 at 7:30 pm. But if I am wrong on the points above, and you can adequately demonstrate that to me (with a WP:CON), I will be happy to relegate this and all other information concerning the lesser of the two co-producing nations into a secondary newly created section of its own.

My use of the word "simultaneous" in all its forms here should not imply any level of accuracy. The 9:00 pm television broadcast and 7:30 pm cinematic showings refer to local time across many time zones (I counted eight), even without considering the Einsteinian Relativity of simultaneity that your user name suggests you might.

Thank you. Diolch yn fawr. With only kind regards, from ChrisJBenson (talk) 12:17, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

I have to agree with Chris here, buddy. Rebecca Eaton and Masterpiece are credited as producers alongside the BBC and Hartswood. There are a number of these collaborations now, notably BBC/BBC America with Doctor Who and ITV/Masterpiece with Downton Abbey where the production are really British-American (although another editor and I gave up trying to describe them that way because it caused too many British heads to explode.) Given that, it's reasonable to note the simultaneous broadcasts in the two producing countries. As the world gets smaller, these lines get blurrier and blurrier. --Drmargi (talk) 22:40, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

Specials field for Aired template

Hey Alex. Can you add a field "specials" to the template, that would add the following sentence to after everything that is already there: "X special[s] has/have also aired/been released." Was thinking about this given the release of the new Sherlock special last night, and how that should be noted in the lead. Thanks. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 21:25, 2 January 2016 (UTC)

I was thinking the same thing. Technically, we could just add "This includes 1 special that aired in 2016" after the use of the template, as general text, could we not? Alex|The|Whovian 03:53, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Hmm that's true. Implementing this template, I'm sure you've seen more variety of articles. Are "specials" a wide spread thing that would be worthwhile to add it to the template? Or should we just do the manual text after? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 04:09, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Well, according to AWB, 67 pages use the special version of the Series Overview template, so it could be worthwhile. It would probably be best to add it as a run-on into the sentence "X episodes of Y have aired, which includes Z specials", instead of a separate sentence. Alex|The|Whovian 04:27, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

I think you should. Wouldn't hurt. And I think the format should be this: "X episodes of Y have aired, including Z special[s], concluding the..." That sound the best, and works well within the sentence structure I feel. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 04:53, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Easy done. Alex|The|Whovian 05:53, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

 Done Alex|The|Whovian 06:10, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Also, complete side topic. I don't know if you and AWB could help with this: I moved an article (Purity Ring to [[Purity Ring (band)}]), and then redirected the old name to Purity ring. Now there are ~500 or so articles linking to the wrong article. Can AWB go through and adjust these (I don't have it else I would do it). Thanks. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 05:35, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Also easy done. I'll do a search for "Purity Ring" (case-sensitive) and change it to "Purity Ring (band)". Alex|The|Whovian 05:53, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Turns out, only about 75 of those pages are to "Purity Ring" (case-sensitive), the rest are probably to "Purity ring". Alex|The|Whovian 06:10, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

@Favre1fan93: All  Done. Alex|The|Whovian 07:12, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Awesome. Thanks! I would have done it, but AWB doesn't work on Mac (last time I checked), so I've been unable to acquire it. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:54, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Doctor Who serials

Whether I agree or disagree to the edits is irrelavant, the discussion on Talk: List of Doctor Who serials has clearly not been concluded. Therfore nothing should be edited until consensus is agreed.Theoosmond (talk) 13:20, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

@Theoosmond: There is a CLEAR consensus between editors - the issue is clear: you have not contributed to the discussion and you disagree with it, hence you are forcing your ways. Did you miss the part that said "Yes there is consensus"? Continue, and you will be reported. Alex|The|Whovian^? 13:22, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

O, sorry. The only reason I didn't notice this is because I thought the discussion was right at the bottom of the talk page, not in the middle. And do not assume the only reason I've made these edits is because I disagree with the edits, the reason I didn't this is because until now, I found no consensus. I agree with these edits as a matter of fact.Theoosmond (talk) 13:31, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

However, you have not achieved consensus for your edits on Doctor Who (series 7). Achieve consensus on the relevant talk page before making major edits like this. Your edit has been reverted.Theoosmond (talk) 13:38, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

That is not a major edit. It is following the standard practice at pages such as List of Haven episodes#Season 5 (2014–15), List of Breaking Bad episodes#Season 5 (2012–13) and List of Teen Wolf episodes#Season 3 (2013–14). Consensus is not required for this, and you are now edit-warring over this. Alex|The|Whovian^? 13:40, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Doctor Who is a completly different show though, and the way the page is now is how it's been for at least 2 years.Theoosmond (talk) 13:51, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Your claim that is is a "completly different show" is your own opinion, original research, and just that - a claim. It is a television series just as every other series is. And obviously nobody has thought to put them in, or have not known of the existence of {{Episode table/part}}, and I have. Hence, addition. Alex|The|Whovian^? 13:54, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Hell, even the BBC list them as Part 1 and Part 2 on the official website here. Alex|The|Whovian^? 14:00, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

The consensuses for different shows are different, look at The Walking Dead (season 4) and the shows you mentioned for example. You can't just edit like this, since the consenus for Doctor Who is different to other shows. And the reason the BBC lists them like that is obvious, they want the episodes in chronological order, but don't want to include the Snowmen into series 7. Otherwise they would do the same for series 6.Theoosmond (talk) 14:05, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Are you going to try to achieve consensus?Theoosmond (talk) 16:02, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

As has been mentioned time and time again: No consensus is needed for this. Consensus is not needed for EVERY edit. And you're claiming what the BBC are/would do? Are you the BBC? No? Then don't. You've already had a warning filed against you. Alex|The|Whovian^? 00:48, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

redlinks

Hi there,

Thanks for sharing your scripts. I'm trying to use the remove redlinks script but find that I only get "no redlinks!", having tested now in both the usertalk (User:Rhododendrites/sandbox2) and article namespace (list of web directories), and as both a bookmarklet and copied into the console. Any idea what the issue might be? I'm using Chrome, if that matters. Thanks. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 14:19, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

@Rhododendrites: Interesting. It may be that you don't have localStorage available (though, I'm using Chrome as well and the script worked on both of those links for me). Try running the following script and let me know what you get in the alert box. Alex|The|Whovian^? 00:47, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Extended content
function lsTest(){ var test = 'test'; try { localStorage.setItem(test, test); localStorage.removeItem(test); return true; } catch(e) { return false; } } if(lsTest() === true){ alert('available'); }else{ alert('unavailable'); }

• "available" pops up, then "undefined" appears in the console. I have used other scripts that require localstorage, though. — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 01:40, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

• BTW Just tried the same two pages using Firefox instead. Same result :/ — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 01:53, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Weird. O.o I have no idea why it's not working at all. Especially since localStorage isn't actually used until the red links are extracted from the page; until then, there should be no issue as it's regular arrays. Alex|The|Whovian^? 02:01, 4 January 2016 (UTC)

Ah . . . this time about redlinks in Panos Pictures. Later I realized that the guideline I'd waved in your face goes on to say "A redlink to a person's name should be avoided". (I'd lazily never got beyond the introduction.) Moreover, although the various [[Joe Blow (photographer)|Joe Blow]]–type links you deleted suggested to me that the blue links had been carefully checked (and that good work was being undone), a little checking showed that no, some of the bluelinks were to the wrong people. So all in all your mass deletion was a good thing. Oops! Oh well, have a (good) beer on me. (And if that's not your thing, swap it for a Moxie or whatever.) -- Hoary (talk) 02:30, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I feel like I owe you an apology for my recent behavior towards you. I have yet a lot to learn about how Wikipedia works and how to treat other users more respectfully. And your contributions are extremely good and helpful in improving Wikipedia's articles. I just wanted to say I mean no harm to Wikipedia nor any of its users (even though, sometimes, it may feel otherwise). I was hoping with this, simply not feud and, whenever we disagree with something about how it should be displayed, we could try to understand each other's point of view and try to reach a consensus more calmly (and specially, not Edit warring—sorry about that too). So, as an apology, I offer you this Barnstar for putting up with me. Thank you.

And I said "I have as much say as any other editor", so I'm not acting like I have any more say, I'm saying I've got equal say.Theoosmond (talk) 10:50, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

@Theoosmond: You stated not to do anything without your approval. What's that? Right under WP:OWNBEHAVIOR. Oh, and you broke 3RR with your edit warring. Alex|The|Whovian^? 10:52, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

I stated not do do that without my approval, because I have as much say as any other editor, not any more, not any less. And I've have not broken 3RR on the talk page, you need to do 4 or more reverts to break that policy. And answer my question, where is the appropiate talk page?Theoosmond (talk) 10:56, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

@Theoosmond: Oh, so because you didn't revert four times, you weren't edit-warring? "An editor who repeatedly restores his or her preferred version is edit warring regardless of whether their edits were justifiable: "but my edits were right, so it wasn't edit warring" is no defense." And it was closed by an admin. Do you not understand that? That's because "no-one comments any further, not even those the admin agrees with". Take it to another talk page. I'm not the one closing it. Alex|The|Whovian^? 10:59, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

You said I broke 3RR, and I know 3RR and edit warring are not the same thing. And which talk page?Theoosmond (talk) 11:01, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

So, that makes it alright. It's like drumming my head against a brick wall. And I don't know - go do some searching! I'm pretty sure that you can find it in yourself do get up and do something about it by yourself, if you feel so strongly about it. Alex|The|Whovian^? 11:04, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Having discussions with you! Now. Go find your page. This discussion is over; any further comments by you on my talk page will be swiftly reverted. Alex|The|Whovian^? 11:07, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Putting up with Theoosmond

Hi AlexTheWhovian

I am sorry for and regret my persitant disruptive editing, edit warring and being difficult on talk pages. I do have to say I sometimes don't find keeping calm on talk pages easy when I'm annoyed but I know I was being extremely stupid with my attitude towards you and other editors. I do not know the ins and outs of the Wikipedia policy that well yet, but I will try to get my head around it. As for the disruptive editing/edit warring, I will now start dicussing at a much earlier stage than I've done before. I am sorry for any distress I have caused, and congratulate you for putting up with me. I will now give you a barnstar, hoping you'll forgive me, and if you ever want adminship, I'll be happy to support your cause.Theoosmond (talk) 16:07, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

	The Original Barnstar
	This is for putting up with me, however difficult it was Theoosmond (talk) 16:07, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

Yeah. Alex|The|Whovian^? 00:13, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

No, seriously, I am sorry.Theoosmond (talk) 16:45, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

List of Prime Ministers of Australia colour compliance

Hi AlexTheWhovian, can you change the layout of List of Prime Ministers of Australia page to one similar to List of Presidents of the United States, otherwise the party colours don't comply to the white or black lettering, thanks.--Emperorofthedaleks (talk) 20:25, 11 January 2016 (UTC)

I've modified the colours so that they are AAA compliant and hence follow WP:COLOR. If you need someone to reorder the layout, post on the talk page of the article. Alex|The|Whovian^? 01:16, 13 January 2016 (UTC)
