Talk:PBS Kids

Please bring back the programming list

Bring back the list of shows because people need to know what shows used to air on PBS Kids and what shows currently airs on the block/channel, especially if they are international readers outside from Canada/northern Mexico, and the page looks empty without it.

Please place the text "2010–" between the left parenthesis and the year "2014" next to the link to the character Bali because the TV show Bali was on the air from 2010 to 2014. 75.166.160.217 (talk) 19:15, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

The Berenstain Bears, and Between the Lions was no longer in reruns, Super Why has came back to production, and Lost Treasure Hunt, Roey's Paintbox, and Scientastic is an American Public Television show and does not belong in the PBS Kids page. 2602:252:D3E:4BA0:5057:8F87:5B3C:B249 (talk) 21:35, 5 November 2015 (UTC)

The PBS Kids logo had change. Now the "Kids" is under the PBS in the thought instead of under the Dash logo. You can see that logo in the new bumpers and the website. Can you please change the logo? 67.233.52.171 (talk) 18:37, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on PBS Kids. Please take a moment to review my edit.

Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

• Attempted to fix sourcing for http://www.current.org/ch/ch916k.html

Sourcing

Electricburst1996, for your reading pleasure and the part you most read over at Wikipedia:Primary sources: "Wikipedia articles should be based on reliable, published secondary sources ..." That means primary source or self sourced material should not general be used. We are not here to promote Primal Screen thus it is WP:UNDUE unless it has been covered by third party sources. Bookworm block is not cover in given source. Spshu (talk) 22:52, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

@Spshu: Also from that part: "and, to a lesser extent, on tertiary sources and primary sources." From further on in the article: "A primary source may only be used on Wikipedia to make straightforward, descriptive statements of facts that can be verified by any educated person with access to the primary source but without further, specialized knowledge." ElectricBurst^{(Electron firings)}_(Zaps) 22:58, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

But you are placing too much on the latter half. Turns out information was unverifiable. Spshu (talk) 23:03, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Why in the world are you thanking me for what you should have done instead of reverting my edit? You can seem to be bother to improve sourcing and attack the person that attempt to raise the low standard that you want to use. Spshu (talk) 23:05, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

@Spshu:, the WSKG primary source article is a better one than the one you have used. As mentioned above (though for much more supportable reasons), the WSKG article is a descriptive statement of fact regarding the launch date of the network on their station, there is no interpretation required and as such, it is usable. As a local resident in WSKG's service area with knowledge of the source you have cited, that source is merely a blog that reposts content, and in this case literally copied the press release they were sent. Their veracity as a media source is minimal - the site is primarily an music-focused events blog that distributes information to social media and periodically publishes press releases they are sent. It is not a valid secondary source.

End of nation network put in first paragraph in its history subsection.

Electricburst1996 did you even read the paragraph? Your statement is contradictory with your actions. "It could have the potential to throw the reader off if it is arranged like that." "..ran for six years.." indicates the length of time the nationwide network existed and you don't know that up front at the launch. It is written like a retrospective, ie. at the end of the national network's funding and existence. So after it ended then the article move on to another paragraph that talk about the network, well did it just not end per the article? A history is general written in chronological order.

PBS Kids Channel split-off

It's time to discuss a split off of this content; right now the content about the channel is at a net negative with only 'it exists' when there should be a lot more about it; PBS station articles should optimally go there rather than just throwing a reader into the weeds.
