[edit]Why was this article's talk page deleted? It has too many issues for just one person to mention, and definitely needs the talk page up, so I recreated it. Mal7798 (talk) 08:08, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
Revamping lists of recurring sketches/characters
[edit]In an effort to address the massive disarray and random formatting of Wikipedia's coverage of recurring SNL sketches, I've begun an effort to merge the various lists and pages into a single list of recurring sketches, split by their year of introduction (i.e., beginning with Recurring Saturday Night Live characters and sketches introduced 1975-1976). The content of the following pages would be merged:
- List of Saturday Night Live musical sketches
- Saturday Night Live animal sketches
- Saturday Night Live characters appearing on Weekend Update
- Saturday Night Live TV show sketches of the 1970s
- Saturday Night Live TV show sketches of the 1980s
- Saturday Night Live TV show sketches of the 1990s
- Saturday Night Live TV show sketches of the 2000s
Among the issues that would be resolved are a) there would be a logical place for information about every SNL recurring sketch, instead of randomly highlighting those that happen to be about animals, music, or TV parodies; and b) it would be tremendously helpful in cleaning up the vast number of recurring-sketch redirects that currently go to pages that don't have any actual information about that sketch, because under the new format, we would know, based on the sketch's date of introduction, where information about that sketch would be located.
I have begun drafting these new pages in my userspace; the first is at User:Theoldsparkle/snl1 and they go sequentially from there (up to 10 right now). I would ask that any comments be centralized at User talk:Theoldsparkle/snl1. Theoldsparkle (talk) 22:14, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
