Who is America? Canceled?

Saw this article. [1] By no means a confirmation as it hasn't been officially announced by the network but it makes you wonder. I personally think they are waiting for the outcome of the court case before deciding anything for sure. Esuka323 (talk) 03:32, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Because this [2] is a pretty big show of faith by the network. Plenty of shows that are favorites among network execs but are low rated have been renewed before in the past so who knows really. Esuka323 (talk) 03:34, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I've seen all the articles over the last few months. Basically, Baron Cohen has said numerous times that he doesn't see a possible way to continue to produce the show because people are aware he's doing characters again (whereas during the first season of WIA, he hadn't gone out in the world undercover as a character in years). As far as he sees it, anybody that he and his crew would be interested in fooling probably has a press team that would be far more alert now. However, the network loves all the controversy and press that the show has generated as being in the news has given them free publicity. I'm not surprised they'd like to have a headline-grabbing show/performer stay with the network. I think that, for now, the article should merely note what Baron Cohen has said and what the network has said but avoid saying that the show has been renewed or canceled. Until Showtime issues some sort of statement saying that the series is not going going to come back then it is basically on hiatus. – BoogerD (talk) 04:31, 27 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Oh I agree, I'm sure if there were someway for the show to continue Showtime would find it. It's not like the live ratings in the episode table are a factor in the shows fate what with Showtime being a commercial free premium network which relies more on its ondemand/streaming/dvr for a better view of a shows popularity. Showtime have kept a show called Twin Peaks in limbo because it was massively successful on their non linear platforms, and I wouldn't be surprised if we hear nothing concrete for a long time for this show too.

Origin (TV series) [4]

In last edit you mention that such things as centrifugal force, Lorenz contraction etc. are original research. Why? The article was provided with links to Feynman Lectures and respective Wiki articles. 193.238.36.135 (talk) 08:08, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:ORIGINAL, "To demonstrate that you are not adding OR, you must be able to cite reliable, published sources that are directly related to the topic of the article, and directly support the material being presented." The sources you are citing do not directly reference Origin. You are taking various disparate sources and using them to support your own original thoughts regarding the scientific accuracy of the series. To add the information you are attempting to edit into the article, you would first need to locate a reliable, secondary source that specifically discuses scientific inaccuracies in the series. – BoogerD (talk) 09:03, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Understood. Thank you. 193.238.36.135 (talk) 09:20, 2 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yellowstone David Brown

In the first episode of Yellowstone, David is credited as "David Brown," but in all subsequent episodes, he is credited correctly as "David Cleveland Brown." — Preceding unsigned comment added by 104.129.198.111 (talk) 17:13, 4 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Double checked. That is inaccurate. He is credited as David Brown in every appearance. – BoogerD (talk) 02:40, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Notice

The file File:JCSLICSoundtrack.png has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-free album cover being used in a decorative manner in Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert#Soundtrack. Non-free album cover art is generally allowed to be used for primary identification purposes in stand-alone articles about albums, but its use in other articles is generally only allowed when the cover art itself is the subject of sourced critical commentary as explained in WP:NFC#cite_note-3 and the context for non-free use required by WP:NFCC#8 is evident. There is no such commentary for this particular album cover anywhere in the article, and the use of soundtrack album cover art in articles about films or TV programs is generally not allowed for this reason as explained in WP:FILMSCORE.

Question about your Raising Dion Edit

Hi BoogerD,

I noticed that on the Raising Dion page you made an edit on Dec. 17, 2018; removing the credit to the illustrator of the comic book (Jason Piperberg) that the show is based on. I was curious as to why? The edit was correct, as you can see if you go to the illustrator's website.

TheBatarang (talk) 20:46, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! It was reverted because Piperberg was not mentioned at all in any of the various news reports announcing the series unlike Liu. It is currently unknown if Piperberg will be credited on-screen for the series. Until such a time when a confirmation of his credit within the series can be confirmed and sourced, he is not mentioned within the article. – BoogerD (talk) 20:58, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I can understand that reasoning to a point, in regards to Piperberg being credited on the show itself. However the edit you removed was specifically crediting him as the Illustrator on the comic book which is indisputable. His name is on Raising Dion's main website where he is credited as the illustrator. Piperberg's website is also proof of this, as it has the pages in his portfolio. Additionally, the website where you can buy the issue of the comic, credits Piperberg alongside Liu. In regards to Piperberg's name not being mentioned in various news reports, it's true that some do not, however there are many that do. Here are some links: Express.co, Deadline, Inquisitr, Nerdist, Even on the original Raising Dion Youtube video on Liu's youtube channel, Piperberg is credited as the illustrator in the description. There are others as well. Just Google Raising Dion Piperberg. So, although it's true that Piperberg has not been directly involved in the Netflix series, doesn't he still deserve credit as the artist of the comic book, which is mentioned in the article? TheBatarang (talk) 22:30, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I must say, you make a compelling point and cited numerous sources to justify what you were saying. As it is yet unknown whether Piperberg will be credited with a "based on" credit for the series, it is still appropriate to omit him from the lead and infobox. However, you actually pointed out sources that the article itself already uses and, as such, I've gone ahead and rewritten a portion of the development subsection with Piperberg now mentioned. Further mentions of Piperberg within the article can be addressed at some point in the future once more information is known regarding the series. – BoogerD (talk) 22:41, 19 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you! I do still personally think that since the lead sentence mentions the comic that it would be appropriate for Piperberg to be given a credit, but I can understand your reason for omission and appreciate his inclusion in the development section, at least.

Year ranges on templates

Actually, there probably needs to be a wider discussion about these. The two issues are: 1) some editors consider the year ranges in templates "trivia" that should just be removed, and 2) should the date ranges be the full "4-digit" ranges or not? (And I think I pointed to the wrong discussion on this one – I know there's already been a discussion about this somewhere...) On issue #1, I think including them is harmless, though I don't feel strongly about it. On issue #2, I do think they should be the full "4-digit" ranges as there's really not a good justification for doing the "shortened" 2-digit date ranges. FWIW. --IJBall (contribstalk) 21:23, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that a wider discussion needs to be held. The discussion you linked to has a few editors, such as Geraldo Perez, pointing out that MOS:DATERANGE actually makes an exception for situations like these and that using two digits keeps the template more "compact". The discussion had a great deal of comments but it doesn't appear that a consensus was truly reached. – BoogerD (talk) 21:28, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
This may be one of those discussions in which no firm consensus is ever reached. But it probably does need to be brought up at someplace like WT:TV so a wider discussion can at least be held. --IJBall (contribstalk) 21:44, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I agree that a discussion like that would seem warranted. Opinions regarding this would effect numerous templates/navboxes/etc. My only concern is that you'd end up with another discussion, like the one you linked to, that starts off strong and productive but eventually peters out as the editors involved don't immediately come to an agreement or get distracted/pulled away by other concerns on the site. But, well, such is the way things are on Wikipedia a lot of the time. – BoogerD (talk) 21:49, 23 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

This person is clearly disruptive editing. He or she claimed it's common practice to not round below millions. There is absolutely no rule on MOS:TV and WT:TV. — YoungForever(talk) 22:50, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

He or she is the same person claimed initials require periods over by Manifest (TV series), yet, most editors disagree. In fact, most editors agree that names should be written how they are credited on screen. — YoungForever(talk) 22:56, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
They're a known problematic editor that will happily edit war to push through their changes, be very careful when engaging. It may very well be easy to mistakenly trigger the WP:3RR thing. I had an issue with them over on the Suits Season 8 pages months back. And they went a little crazy on the Rise page a while back(See page history of that show). People like Ijball & Amaury & Alexthewhovian(Now Alex 21) have also had encounters with them. Esuka (talk) 00:25, 25 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
