Episode titles should link to articles on the episodes themselves and not to other pages that the episode title refers to in some sort of trivial means. It is also original research to state that one title refers to something else because no one else has ever stated this information in a serious publication.

In short, do not link to She Blinded Me with Science or else.—Ryulong (琉竜) 17:46, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Though you may find this info useless Wikipedia does not forbid trivia. Original research means stuff that is made up and there is no outside source to back it up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.252.16.238 (talk) 18:12, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are right that Wikipedia does not forbid trivia. However, this is still WP:OR ("The term "original research" (OR) is used on Wikipedia to refer to material—such as facts, allegations, and ideas—for which no reliable, published sources exist."). There are no reliable sources that state this blatant reference and it is generally not useful in any way.—Ryulong (琉竜) 18:16, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

And not only did you add this trivia but you did so in a way that was not neutrally written. It is not necessary to say the song was a hit and what in god's name is a "title" in this situation? If we allow this, then we have to allow such references for other episodes and seasons.

Once, again. This is original research that has no reliable source backing it up. Just because it's blatantly obvious does not mean Wikipedia has to mention it. Go to a fan wiki and post it there.—Ryulong (琉竜) 18:18, 24 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's best we establish consensus as to whether or not the summary mentions the title it's referring to. In this case we have He Blasted Me with Science punning She Blinded Me with Science. It's a fact. Senor Taichi (talk) 10:33, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's a fact that no one has published before so Wikipedia is not allowed to make the statement.—Ryulong (琉竜) 12:05, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't have to be. It's quite clear the writer got the title's name from the song itself. Senor Taichi (talk) 13:09, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're perforing original research again. No one has commented on this fact other than the fans and that's not good enough for Wikipedia. It's trivial and there are no reliable sources to back up the claim you want to make. You can't just say "X looks like Y" and post it on Wikipedia.—Ryulong (琉竜) 13:21, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Again, Senor Taichi, you can not say that the "Science" title is punning the song is fact WITHOUT a reliable valid source. Ryulong and I are not denying that this may be valid, but we can not assume so, as it is WP:OR, without sourcing the information. If a valid source can be found, then we can add the info in the episode summary. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:59, 26 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Why is it that every single fan who comes here and is told off about WP:OR suddenly goes off on us by saying "IT'S TRUE SO IT HAS TO BE ON THE PAGE". Wikipedia does not post "The Truth". It posts what can be verified by reliable sources. And right now the only way to verify that "He Blasted Me with Science" is a reference to "She Blinded Me with Science" is by examining it ourselves, which is the very definition of a violation of WP:OR. Understand this, and stop unnecessarily reporting us to WP:DRN when you can't get your way.—Ryulong (琉竜) 02:19, 27 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Complete Episode List

There is a complete list of episodes on powerrangers.wikia.com which is a reliable source. So there is no reason the list shouldn't be posted here. 174.254.193.95 (talk) 14:11, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Another Wiki can never be a reliable source, particularly if it is one of the hundreds of thousands of wikis hosted by the Wikia service. They can be edited by anybody, and in particular the Power Rangers fandom has zero credibility in its editorial control.—Ryulong (琉竜) 15:46, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

that is beside the point. The webmaster keeps the information accurate and they've been correct for the first nine. I think we need to establish consensus for this once and for all. MugsWrit (talk) 15:50, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Power Rangers Wikia is not and has never been a reliable source. It is a fansite that can be edited by anyone. This is a Wikipedia rule. See WP:USERGENERATED for more detail as to why the answer will always be no.—Ryulong (琉竜) 17:17, 6 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Airing Times

The airing times from October to November are all wrong for the US. The last ones are for France. If you guys want to put the french airing dates, then put them separately from the US air dates. The real US airdates are in this website. http://tvlistings.zap2it.com/tv/power-rangers-megaforce/episode-guide/EP01683060?aid=zap2it --108.23.154.243 (talk) 09:47, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It all looks right to me.—Ryulong (琉竜) 09:53, 14 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
