I don't know how else to say this: actors can be mentioned even if they do not have a page to link to. Take White Collar for example. A major character (Alexandra Hunter) is portrayed by an actress (Gloria Votsis) who does not have a page. On Monk, Jarrad Paul, who portrayed Kevin Dorfman, did not (until recently) have an article. On Suits, Sarah Rafferty, one of the leads, did not have an article until just recently. Rupak Ginn, a major recurring character on Royal Pains, does not yet have an article. Should we therefore remove all of these characters from their respective lists? I don't want to get blocked, so I won't pursue a re-re-re-revert until later, but we do not have to create a page for people just to mention them in an article.

Kenan Thompson

edit

We all know that if he truly is in the season, it will be the episode "Let's Doo-Wop It Again". It's so obvious it's painful. But we can't say he's in it without a valid source explicitly saying he is in it. Otherwise it's just speculation. Read WP:CRYSTAL. I don't know how else to get this across; I've left hidden notes, edit summaries, and even messages on user talk pages. Kevinbrogers (talk) 04:06, 30 October 2011 (UTC)Reply

Content guidelines for episode descriptions

edit

Deadman's Curveball contained numerous references to the film Bull Durham. It seems important to record this fact somewhere. However, when I added a brief reference to the episode description, it was soon removed. Is there somewhere else appropriate to add this content?

Tolerance appreciated, Cslinn (talk) 20:27, 13 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Something like that is not very significant to a season article. If you have enough time/motivation, perhaps you can create a separate episode article at Dead Man's Curve Ball like was done at Dual Spires. Then at Dead Man's Curve Ball you can use reliable sources to support the references (I've always found that reviews are best for TV articles). Good luck. --Boycool (talk) 01:46, 14 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
One of the hallmarks of Psych writing is the habit of making tributes to film and TV. As a significant aspect of the show's style, I would like to see in the list which episodes are tributes, and to what. 24.6.156.187 (talk) 04:45, 14 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Henry Spencer and the Season 6 Finale

edit

As most of you are aware by now, during the Season 6 cliffhanger finale, Henry Spencer is shot at close range in the chest by one of his former partners on the police force. His fate is currently unknown. This information has gone back and forth between appearing in the article and being removed. Let's get one thing straight: IMHO, this information is not only relevant but necessary. That cliffhanger will set the stage for at least the first Season 7 episode. It should be included because, as frequently mentioned, it conforms to WP's policy about spoilers. Therefore, please discuss this change here before reverting it again. If the consensus decides it is not relevant, well and good. In the meantime, I'm not going to just sit here and tolerate an edit war about this topic. Until further discussion, please leave this information in the article. Let the discussion begin and the consensus decide. Thank you. --Jgstokes-We can disagree without being disagreeable (talk) 23:55, 23 April 2012 (UTC)Reply

Once again, this information should be included based on WP's policy on spoilers. Any editor who removes this information without discussing it here first is guilty of vandalism and may be blocked in the future if they continue to remove this information without discussing it here first. Thanks. --Jgstokes-We can disagree without being disagreeable (talk) 03:07, 6 May 2012 (UTC)Reply
This needs to be removed. These blurbs describing episodes are not supposed to contain pertinent information to plot and should only contain the sort of general info that would be found if you, for instance, pressed the "Info" button on your cable box when watching a show on television. I would say that anything that is a "cliffhanger" ending would count as a spoiler. I certainly felt robbed when I, having not seen the episode, accidentally read this while trying to find which episode I stopped on last I watched the show. I wonder how many other people had the show ruined for them. Don't be so pretentious, Jgstokes. Besides, this revelation certainly fits the article Spoiler (Media): "...any element of any summary or description of any piece of fiction that reveals any plot element which will give away the outcome of a dramatic episode within the work of fiction, or the conclusion of the entire work." I'm removing this so others don't have this episode ruined for them like it was for me. 24.127.51.247 (talk) 23:16, 25 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
If you don't like it, take it up at the talk page for the policy. Unless something changes, you can't remove pertinent info just because you don't like it. By your logic, if Henry is dead in season seven, we wouldn't be able to mention that either. There's a chance I'd side with you if there was an article for the episode and the information could be put there, but there's not. Kevinbrogers (talk) 01:23, 26 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Colour contrast problems

edit

It seems that this article is using colours in the infobox which don't satisfy Wikipedia's accessibility guidelines. The contrast between the foreground colour and the background colour is low, which means that it may be difficult or impossible for people with visual impairments to read it.

To correct this problem, a group of editors have decided to remove support for invalid colours from Template:Infobox television season and other television season templates after 1 September 2015. If you would still like to use custom colours for the infobox and episode list in this article after that date, please ensure that the colours meet the WCAG AAA standard.

To test whether a colour combination is AAA-compliant you can use Snook's colour contrast tool. If your background colour is dark, then please test it against a foreground colour of "FFFFFF" (white). If it is light, please test it against a foreground colour of "000000" (black). The tool needs to say "YES" in the box for "WCAG 2 AAA Compliant" when you input the foreground and the background colour. You can generally make your colour compliant by adjusting the "Value (%)" fader in the middle box.

Please be sure to change the invalid colour in every place that it appears, including the infobox, the episode list, and the series overview table. If you have any questions about this, please ask on Template talk:Infobox television season. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 05:30, 2 August 2015 (UTC)Reply

Season 6 Finale Cliffhanger (again)

edit

Hello again, everyone! In 2012, objections were made to the inclusion of spoiler details regarding the season 6 finale cliffhanger. At that time, the consensus determined that the spoiler details needed to remain. Since those details were unilaterally removed between now and then, I have again included them in the episode summary today. The fact is that the first episode of season 7 deals with the aftermath of that cliffhanger, which can be verified in the description of that episode found here. Also, if anyone were to run a Google search on both the finale of this season and the premiere of the next, the "spoilers" are clearly included in every episode description. And finally, at this point, anyone who has not seen either or both episodes by this time (since they aired in 2012 and 2013) should not excpet the rest of us who have repeatedly seen them to spare the information. All spoilers have an expiration date, and given that it has been seven years since the season 6 finale aired, and over six years since the season 7 premiere was first aired, the spoiler rules no longer apply to the cliffhanger of this episode, if indeed they ever should have applied at all. Please discuss here first if you disagree, but the prior consensus, combined with the points I have laid out here, should be more than sufficient grounds to keep the information in the episode descriptions of both episodes. --Jgstokes (talk) 20:17, 3 August 2019 (UTC)Reply
