Hi AlexTheWhovian, regarding your edits to Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!, I'm not sure I completely agree with your decision to delete every international date simply because it is an American series. Specifically, at WikiProject Cartoon Network, it states Airdates in non-English countries should not be included in the infobox unless it is first aired in a non-English country, but if determined to be necessary to include, can be discussed further in the article's body. In this case, all the airdates which you removed from the second season table have not yet aired in the US, but have aired in several other countries. As referenced in the lead paragraph, the second season of the series will not be aired on television in United States, but rather they will all be put exclusively on the Boomerang streaming service. Seeing as none of the season 2 episodes have premiered on the streaming service and likely won't anytime soon (you'll notice the date of the reference is March 7), but have aired in several countries internationally, in my opinion that would justify inclusion of the referenced non-US dates in this case. That being said, I am interested to hear your perspective and thoughts on this issue. Cheers, Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 15:56, 4 November 2017 (UTC)
- The WP:CONSENSUS of WP:TV is to only include airdates for the country of origin. Broadcast details for countries foreign to the country of origin should be noted elsewhere in the article, primarily under a "Broadcast" section. Australian shows give Australian dates, UK shows give UK dates, U.S. shows give U.S. dates. (Pinging WeepingAngel63 - see? Not U.S. centric.) The episode can be included with reliable sources, but TBA is what should be displayed until a U.S. release/broadcast date are announced. And if another date were to be added, only the first date that episode was broadcast on should have been listed - not dates for four separate countries. -- AlexTW 10:01, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for explaining further. Just to make sure I'm understanding you correctly, this would mean that the international dates at List of Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated episodes should be deleted as well as it is a US show? Cheers, Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 17:05, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
- @KatnissEverdeen: Apologies for the later reply. Also, home media is not supported in the series overview tables per WP:TVOVERVIEW; the table should be converted to the template {{Series overview}}, and the home media table separated and moved to a new section between Episodes and References. -- AlexTW 00:19, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
- No worries and I appreciate your reply and explanation. I actually didn't notice the home media section as I'm not as familiar with that article as I am the Be Cool, Scooby-Doo! one, but I agree that the tables should definitely be separated. In addition, seeing as the DVD releases are also listed on the main series page, it seems unnecessary to list a duplicate chart citing the same info on both pages. I've gone ahead and deleted the home media section in the series overview table. Also, upon another glance at the international dates I mentioned, I now see that many of them are for premieres which happened months and even years after the US premiere (in addition to the fact that there doesn't seem to be any distinguishable pattern between which countries the dates are being chosen from), so that's especially problematic. I'll take a closer look at it when I get a chance, though unfortunately I do have a very busy real-life at the moment so it may be several days before I'm able to make the revisions needed. You're welcome to make the changes as well if you wish, otherwise I'll probably get to it at some point late next week on a guess. All the best, Katniss May the odds be ever in your favor ♥ 01:21, 9 November 2017 (UTC)

Be Cool Scooby-Doo
It is interesting that you can quote what you want in order to delete, but you don't care enough about the content of the page to insert the relevant information where the consensus says it should go. Edit properly, not just destructively / dismissively. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WeepingAngel63 (talk • contribs) 10:11, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
- A new section on the same topic as the one above, when you could have just edited and contributed to it... Per the consensus of the Television WikiProject, all that would need to be re-added are the premiere dates. We don't list separate episode dates for each episodes for countries that are foreign to the origin country - name me an Australian series' article with UK or U.S. dates for every episode. Do learn how to sign your posts as well, will you? -- AlexTW 10:15, 5 November 2017 (UTC)
RE: Titans edit
Per this, I just wanted you to know I've come across this by another user stating the same thing for another article (both slip my mind at the moment, but it was something AoS related I think). But I've never heard of this, that users expect the information to be easily verifiable in a source title. Since when is that a thing? That is virtually never the case. Very perplexing... - Favre1fan93 (talk) 21:23, 8 November 2017 (UTC)
- I've never heard of it either. Before I reverted the edit, I checked the documentation for {{cite web}} to see if there anything to support this new development for the usage of

, but there's not. Perplexing indeed. -- AlexTW 00:19, 9 November 2017 (UTC)
