Madeleine? Madelyn? Madolyn?[edit]

Do we have a source for the correct spelling of Ms Hayes's forename? The status quo before recent edits was "Madelyn", recently changed to "Madeleine". I happened to watch a few minutes of "Moonlighting" Season 4 Episode 10, and noticed the spelling "Madolyn" on official correspondence from the IRS. Can this be taken as correct, or is it a joke that the IRS would misspell her name? Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 22:21, 20 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In the scripts it’s officially Madolyn. Such as pilot script posted here:

[1]https://moonlightingstrangers.com/scripts/Moonlighting-ML-101-Pilot-1984-10-23.pdf - see script page 28, although I don’t know if this would pass the Wikipedia Citation Laws. 68.52.185.132 (talk) 17:32, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that. I'd corrected the spelling not long after writing the above, but it was miscorrected again recently. Best wishes, Jean-de-Nivelle (talk) 18:45, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Another Parody[edit]

There was an episode of that 1980s Chipmunks cartoon called “Dreamlighting” with Alvin Seville as David Alvinson, Brittany Miller as Bratty Hayes, etc. Cbsteffen (talk) 04:30, 10 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

DVD price[edit]

user:Rcarter555. The high price of DVDs is notable because it comes from an already-existing cite, and it is directly inferred by the title (not just some aside within the article). Yes, it is subject to change, but it's been that way for a decade, and I used an "as of" template to indicate that it can potentially change. Please revert your revert.

Just because it comes from an already existing cite doesn’t make it notable. Rcarter555 (talk) 07:43, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

From the title of an existing cite. Michaelmalak (talk) 10:58, 3 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Still not notable. Rcarter555 (talk) 07:38, 4 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
