Arthur episode numbers[edit]

Could you explain why you're doubling all the episode numbers related to the Arthur TV series? Without explanation, edits like this look disruptive. —C.Fred (talk) 17:01, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

C.Fred Totally in agreement on this. From what I gather, each episode has two segments, and the parentheticals appear to be running totals of each of these segments, which is entirely unnecessary and crufty. If the user wants to make a note in prose at the top of each page how many segments there were TOTAL in each season, fine, but the parens are cluttering up the episode list and are not supported by MOS:TV or even by common usage. TheAmazingRaceFan7474, if you want to include this content, you need to first establish consensus by discussing at Talk:List of Arthur episodes, please. Thanks.

Consensus[edit]

Hi there, with regard to your recent re-submission of confusing numbering here, I will remind you that you first need to establish consensus before making these changes, since another editor, myself, has objected to the inclusion of this numbering sequence. Please start a discussion at Talk:List of Arthur episodes, since consensus is determined through discussion, not through edit warring. If you add these numbers back, it will be considered disruptive. Not trying to discourage you from editing at Wikipedia, only letting you know that this is a community project, not an individual one. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:23, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

December 2014[edit]

Hello, I'm Cyphoidbomb. I wanted to let you know that I undid one or more of your recent contributions because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Diffs: In this edit you change an airdate from May 16, 2013 to May 20, 2013, which contradicts this source. In this edit you inappropriately remove a Death date and age template and change the subject's death age from 55 to 54. You neither explained any of these edits, nor did you provide a source that supports them, so it appears you are deliberately adding factual errors to Wikipedia. Please stop.

Paddington[edit]

Hello, regarding Paddington (film), I restored the article to the earlier version. Since this film is not a production of the United States, it does not warrant listing the U.S. release date in the film infobox. Alternatively, it could be mentioned in the lead section (the first few paragraphs). Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 14:54, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Are you not familiar with how the UK does date formatting? It is written as "29 November 2014" where the U.S. would write "November 29, 2014". Since this is a British film, it is the proper formatting for this article per MOS:TIES. It does not need to be changed. You can edit this section and leave a comment below mine if you have any questions. Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 15:36, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Can you please read my initial message explaining why the U.S. release date is not to be used? Erik (talk | contrib) ^{(ping me)} 15:39, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

December 2014[edit]

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at White Irish Drinkers, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Diff: [1] As previously noted you seem to be adding unsourced content that contradicts other sources. The date you changed is not consistent with these sources: [2][3] Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:18, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
