Star Trek franchise next and previous[edit]

Hi there—please stop editing the Star Trek "next episode" and "previous episode" fields the way you're doing. Those are for next and previous episodes of the same series, not for the franchise as a whole. There's no way the "previous episode" of a TNG episode would be a DS9 episode, or vice versa. That's not what people use those fields for. AJD (talk) 05:34, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I understand. I am looking to add a release order list for the franchise somewhere. Not sure where. Any ideas? FlippyHam (talk) 14:21, 27 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Star Trek franchise in Release Order moved to draftspace[edit]

An article you recently created, Draft:List of Star Trek productions in release order, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

I accepted and then un-accepted your article; apologies. As stated above it needs better referencing. User:GKFX^talk 22:27, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have cited to the actual CBS corporate syndication pages that are used to sell the series to stations around the country, to pages showing film wide releases, and sites compiling press release information for more modern series' releases. I believe this will satisfy the need for more reliable citations. FlippyHam (talk) 18:42, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: List of Star Trek productions in release order (July 18)[edit]

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Worldbruce was:

This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The comment the reviewer left was:

The main purposes of a list are: information, navigation, and development. This list is not for the purpose of developing Wikipedia. It provides no information or navigation that is not already fulfilled by Lists of Star Trek episodes and its sublists. To keep the system of lists useful, Wikipedia must limit the size and topic of lists. Notability guidelines apply to the creation of stand-alone lists. Does any reliable source discuss the air dates of episodes across series as a set? The cited sources certainly don't, they discuss the air dates of episodes of a specific series (often specific seasons of a specific series) as a set. So that's what Wikipedia should do.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
