Episode 5 viewers

Is there any proof that "Mitch Salem" from the comment section at [1] Archived 2016-04-19 at archive.today is reliable. If yes, it could be included, but if there is not, it should not be. Gial Ackbar (talk) 13:08, 20 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Source for 26 episode count?

I don't see where in the document the 26 total episode count is cited from, am I just blind? I was looking for the citation in the first paragraph of the #Episodes heading

It has been confirmed here. Gial Ackbar (talk) 07:40, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mentioning of the first worldwide airdate if not on Discovery Family.

There were a total of four episodes this season that were bordcasted by in other nations before they had their first bordcast in the USA. This has recently been removed from the article by User:NightShadow23, first with the reason ""Original air date", not MiniMIni+ & Tiny Pop", then "Wikipedia:Notability" and finally a third time with the reason " "Original(!) air date". See "Original network" in the article MLP: FiM", leading the article to be protecet (in the [wrong version). As I fear this edit war could start all over again once the block ends, I want to make clear why the dates should be included.

The first airdate in the US is not any more noteable than that of any other contry. While Discovery Family in the US is the original Network to air that season (mening the first one to air the first episode), the other TV networks (MiniMIni+ and Tiny Pop) did air that episodes first. This was a leagle boardcast, not an accidetly leak or an illegal priated version. Therefor this airing is as important and therefor notable the the airdate of any other episode the aired first in the US. Correct my if I am wrong, but in Wikipedia, Great Britain and Poland are not less notable than the US, and neither is MiniMIni+ and Tiny Pop any less notably than Discoyery Family.

NightShadow23 Please correct me what you think is wrong with what I said abouve any why you think those dates should not be visable for any readers of this artcle. Gial Ackbar (talk) 16:08, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Original air date" is not designed for non-original network. The original network is the only Discovery Family (see the template in the article). Federal Chancellor (NightShadow) (talk) 18:05, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

In Template:Infobox television season, the entry "network" is only specified as the "name of the network on which the season aired." The Template:Episode list/sublist specifies "OriginalAirDate" as "This is the date the episode first aired on TV, or is scheduled to air." Nothing there supports what you are saying.. By strict rrading of that rules, it would even be the other way around. Only the "date the episode first aired on TV" (regardless of country or network) should be included, so in this case only the Polnish/British airdate, not the US airdate. While I would be fine with this, I guess the US airdate should still be included. Gial Ackbar (talk) 18:19, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, then provide reliable sources according to Wikipedia:Notability. Federal Chancellor (NightShadow) (talk) 19:04, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

A source for what? That the episodes aired there? Any Polnish/British TV scedule paper would do, as well as the airing itself that everyone with a TV set in GB/Poland cound see. Therefor a source is trivial and needed to be soucred as little as that the sky is blue. Notability is not an issuse here. "Notability is a test used by editors to decide whether a given topic warrants its own article." Not every fact included in an article need a proof of notabilty, only the article itself. You are trying to abuse your opwn interpretetion of wikipedia rule to archive something I don't even understand why. Wikipedia is about providing infomation in articles, not removing it. Gial Ackbar (talk) 19:13, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, in Russian Wikipedia this rule is a little different. Okay, see Wikipedia:Verifiability. Federal Chancellor (NightShadow) (talk) 19:20, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not needed here. Read Wikipedia:When_to_cite#When_a_source_may_not_be_needed, especially point two, and Wikipedia:You don't need to cite that the sky is blue. Gial Ackbar (talk) 19:31, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This is an essay, and not a rule. Federal Chancellor (NightShadow) (talk) 19:46, 22 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed that the airings should be mentioned (personally, I'd prefer them to be mentioned like how they were, with the US date listed and the other country airdates being listed as footnotes). It's certainly pertinent information that I can't see any reason to exclude.--Jonny Manz, signing off! ^{(Ctrb, E-mail)} 11:31, 23 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

So is there any conclusion for this discussion? User:NightShadow23 is removing the airdate again by stating this image. --Eflyjason (talk) 11:50, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

No matter what that image says, some episodes aird in other countries first and therefor should be mentioned here. Facts stands over some claim in the episode credits. Gial Ackbar (talk) 16:41, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia:Notability. The article contains unreliable sources. Federal Chancellor (NightShadow) (talk) 16:58, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why are websites of candien air dates, which were cited before the episodes aired, less rilable than those of US air dates. Besides that, the fact that it was viewable for everyone there on TV is a source for itself. Gial Ackbar (talk) 17:07, 26 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, wasn't it Zap2it that listed the Canadian airdates (and which has also listed the US airdates)? If so, there's no reason to delist the non-US airings if they occurred prior to the US airing, especially those ones.--Jonny Manz, signing off! ^{(Ctrb, E-mail)} 02:20, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I believe program scheledes that was once posted on TinyPop's offical site and other sources as cited in ref are reliable enough to prove these two episodes did air at that time. Eflyjason (talk) 10:04, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Episode table border/line color

Though the DVD cover has white border, changing the table's line color to white looks quite weird. Is there any alternative choice? --Eflyjason (talk) 23:24, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

On the one hand, I think the white looks fine. On the other, wasn't there a color it used to be before it was changed to white? If so, I suppose it could be changed back to that.--Jonny Manz, signing off! ^{(Ctrb, E-mail)} 08:53, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe we'll just keep white here then. 😂--Eflyjason (talk) 15:37, 28 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
