Emerald Archer (Arrow episode) → Emerald Archer – The name appears nowhere in Green Arrow. If this isn't an ideal move, I recommend Emerald Archer (Arrow). Kailash29792 (talk) 05:01, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Emerald Archer (Arrow) would be Oliver Queen (Arrowverse). Oliver Queen the comic character is frequantly refered to as the Emerald Archer. This Popverse article, here in Britannica, Title of this book Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 05:25, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Additonally I don't know if this is enterially applicable here but same logic as Green Arrow (Arrow episode) Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 18:08, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Frankly I am mystified as to what this proposed move is intended to achieve. The rationale given seems to bear no relationship to our article naming policy. The episode is listed by this name in both List of Arrow episodes#Season 7 (2018–19 and Arrow season 7. Emerald Archer is currently a valid primary redirect to Green Arrow, and that article does mention the name Emerald Archer in several places, perhaps it could be more prominent but frankly I think it's obvious enough. So what's the problem? Fix the article if you think it needs it, but this RM would just confuse things IMO. Andrewa (talk) 07:28, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Andrewa, okay I retract the idea of moving this to Emerald Archer. Isn't Emerald Archer (Arrow) a better choice? Kailash29792 (talk) 07:45, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but I still don't see how there is any problem with the current name. That more concise disambiguator is also less recognisable IMO. So I'd still leave it as is. Andrewa (talk) 08:24, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 05:12, 10 April 2024 (UTC).[reply]

New article, long enough even without the plot section, all sourced except for the plot section, which does not need to be. It appears to be written neutrally. Copyright violation is unlikely. QPQ is done. The hook facts are interesting enough. It does not though have that it is the 150th episode sourced in prose, it is only in the unsourced lead. ALT0 is okay with sourced attribution for it being the 150th episode, ALT1 and ALT2 are approved. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:34, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pinging Muboshgu, since the previous attempt was not formed properly.--Laun chba ller 13:01, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Does it? I don't think it's a "calculation", though I guess it is in the adding up of episodes. I think it's better to source it to be sure. – Muboshgu (talk) 13:41, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
