editIs it acceptable to make edits to this draft in order to 'help it along', or would it be more advisable to start an article from scratch on my own? (*I don't want to just push my way into someones current work.*) NsTaGaTr (talk) 22:02, 3 February 2017 (UTC)
Copyright problem removed
editPrior content in this article duplicated one or more previously published sources. The material was copied from: http://thedollop.libsyn.com/dollop-x-hugh-glass etc. Copied or closely paraphrased material has been rewritten or removed and must not be restored, unless it is duly released under a compatible license.

Update
editThe episode listing needs an update as it has been several months without one. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 100.4.226.10 (talk) 15:01, 7 May 2020 (UTC)
Split proposed
edit- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
- After a broad discussion about stand alone articles dedicated to episode lists at the podcasting wikiproject (here) myself and another editor have come to the consensus that collapsible tables are generally preferred over stand alone articles. Stand alone articles dedicated to episode lists receive very few views and there are very few cases where a stand alone article dedicated to an episode list is helpful to anyone when the episodes are easy to view on the podcast's official website or any given podcast distributing platform such as Google Podcasts or Apple Podcasts.

I'm proposing that the episodes be split into a separate article the same way that The Last Podcast on the Left has a separate article called List of The Last Podcast on the Left episodes. Right now the episode list takes up the majority of the page and although the word count might not be extremely large I think it's still too long (WP:SIZESPLIT) or if that's not a valid reason I'd say that the episodes constitute a different article because they are a slightly different subject (WP:CONTENTSPLIT). Either way it appears to be common practice to split episode lists into their own article once they've become lengthy (Category:Lists of podcast episodes).
