[edit] 2nd episode article review


[edit] Information Lost

What got me thinking about the notability issue is the challenge being made to the Buffy episodes on similar grounds. That particular show is being held up as an example to emulate for series TV even to the point of featured article status. I wonder what the point is overall. We have articles on each of the characters. A TV series is notable solely because it is being broadcast. What is missing from an encyclopedic perspective is complete verifiable information about what is already passed the notability test, which the series has; the episodes add to that. We don't have in the summary the work product information of the people in the credits, the guest cast, the writer, director. We should have that. We don't need a Readers Digest version of the episode, a trivia section, or a goofs sections but we should have a place for important data from the primary source - the episode itself, about the people who created the show. --NrDg 20:30, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

What is happening to other series is irrelevant. A TV series is not notable for being broadcast. It is notable if its been significantly covered by reliable sources independent of the subject. Virtually all television shows have been. The individual articles on episodes, however, often do not. As for information on the director and the like, I don't know why we need that, but I'm not an expert on what people want to know about television shows. At any rate, that information can be included in a LOE, see this featured list. i (said) (did) 20:44, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
What got me thinking is not my attempt to justify anything, just go hmmm. I checked the Simpson's link and they added columns for writer and director. That is one of the main things I think we need. In the "don't argue this way" article you linked to one point made was "Often, sub-articles are created for formatting and display purposes, however - this does not imply an "inherited notability" per se, but is often accepted in the context of ease of formatting and navigation, such as with books and albums." The point is I think more information should be related to the article. The means to do that might be sub-pages to ease formatting and navigation. These pages aren't articles in their own right and are really just a way of formatting the main article. --NrDg 21:18, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
I disagree. They are articles in their own right. Why wouldn't they be? As for the comment on that page about "easing to formatting and navigation" I've never heard that before. I'd like to see where that applies.
The thing is that the vast majority of things that are appropriate for an episode article can and should be said on a LOE, because the episode itself is not notable. There are exceptions, such as the articles on that list I mentioned. i (said) (did) 21:58, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, the article I was quoting was the WP:OTHERCRAPEXISTS#Notability is inherited debunker. I was just talking about a means to an end. I have no problems with putting things in the LOE page if we find a good way to do it. What I particularly want is the writer, director and guest starring cast. They all can be added to the table and/or episode summary section. Unfortunately the aux1 field is now taken so need another way. What I would like to do is put writer and director as aux1 and aux2 and put rating and guest cast in the summary. I am open to suggestions. --NrDg 22:10, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Just as a side note, othercrapexists is separate from the inherited section, they're two separate points. On topic, specifically related to HM episodes, in the first box on the page it says who it was written and directed by. As for the guest stars, that could just be another field. i (said) (did) 23:56, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

I've started adding Writer, Director and Guest stars to the season 1 table. Let me know if there are any objections before I do much more work on this. --NrDg 00:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I've been looking at where the LOE table has gone in the last day or so, and have a few suggestions. There should not be so many columns because it results in the columns being too narrow. If details such as writer and directer are included, they should be merged into the summary section. I added the viewers column because that is what was suggested, but feel that this, too, should be in the summary; and the 'code' column should just go away.
While people debate the value of all this useless information about a lame show, there are articles that need to be written. --Jack Merridew 10:46, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I feel regular data should be in columns, irregular and variable data in the summary. That is kind of the point of a table. I think the table as it stands now has sufficient column width for everything that is included and I'm fairly happy about how it turned out. Your other comment seems off topic. --NrDg 21:07, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
I have finished including what I felt was missing from the episodes and redirected all the episode pages to the anchor link for that episode in the table. My major content concerns have now been met so I am satisfied with what we have so far. --NrDg 21:07, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notable Guests

I heard that Dolly Parton and Vicki Lawrence are guest starring in the same episode together here. Is there anywhere to put the info? Mouseinthehouse 17:56, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sleepwalk This Way

Why is there not a page for this episode if all the pages have been restored? Mouseinthehouse 17:56, 12 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Everybody Was Best-Friend Fighting

In the article it mentions that the name Everybody Was Best-Friend Fighting comes from the song Kung Fu Fighting twice. It says it in the first paragraph and again in the trivia section.Smileyface 12 91 22:45, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Song Sung Bad

The episodes on the separate page for I Want You to Want Me...To Go to Florida has Everybody Was Best-Friend Fighting as the next show, followed by Me and Mr. Jonas. Where did Song Sung Bad (the one with...for now, as an earlier version listed Lily as trying to start a singing career of her own...Lily being supposed to record something for her mom) come in (assuming this has even been confirmed)? WAVY 10 15:58, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

I checked my DirecTV grid last night and managed to get to July 29th, and the next episode on the grid is Everybody was Best-Friend Fighting. I don't know where the Song Sung Bad info came from. WAVY 10 13:33, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] STOP DOING THIS!

who ever keeps on redirecting the episode articles to the list of episode page, STOP DOING THAT!!!! AND WHO EVER DID THIS, PUT THOSE PAGES BACK UP, NOOOOOOOOOOWW!!!!! 24.186.246.59 at 7:47 PM on July 24, 2007.

Sorry, the consensus is that the episode articles are not notable enough to have their own articles; see WP:EPISODE. Please do not recreated these articles or other episode articles that do not establish the notability of the episode; see also: WP:N and WP:V. --Jack Merridew 08:43, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
Actually, there is no consensus. We had a big debate about it above. I guess Jack forgot. Everyking 04:01, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reminder

To all who keep trying to revive the episode links...PLEASE STOP IT! Consensus was to merge (I was one fighting to save a few of them), and unless enough information for it to pass WP:N, don't play "Lazarus" with these articles. WAVY 10 01:07, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

We really need to edit the Hannah Montana episodes. We also need the screen shots.

[edit] Lack of consensus

It's clear from the above discussion that no consensus was reached, yet somebody redirected the articles anyway and even closed off the discussion, as if to say no further discussion shall be permitted. Who was responsible for that? I propose that all the articles be restored and that the discussion be reopened. In particular, discussion needs to continue regarding the episodes for which secondary sources were found, because I believe consensus can be reached (and may already exist) to keep those. Everyking 04:07, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Well, the discussion ceased to be commented on. Maybe an admin can be called into to determine consensus, as has been suggested? i (said) (did) 04:09, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
So, if people stop talking, then one side is free to just go ahead and impose its will? Everyking 04:15, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
No, but it was deemed that consensus had been established, and since no one came in and voiced an opinion, it was carried out. i (said) (did) 04:19, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I counted four people clearly favoring keep and four people clearly favoring redirect, with a few others not expressing a clear opinion. That's a split straight down the middle, the opposite of a consensus. However, note that if comments from non-established users are counted, there's easily a keep majority. How on earth can it be argued that consensus exists to redirect? Everyking 04:23, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Actually, isn't vote counting the opposite of consensus? Sorry, couldn't resist. And I only counted three for keeping. Anyway. I thought that there was consensus, but again, we can ask an admin to determine, it's somewhat of their job. (ec reply- What does comments from "non-established users" mean? i (said) (did) 04:28, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
It's not the opposite; it's a means of evaluating the presence or absence of consensus. You can't have a consensus when people are evenly split on an issue. It's inexplicable that a person would even suggest that. I want to hear the logic behind your thinking that people have reached a consensus even when they are evenly split. (And when, according to this logic, does a consensus not exist?) And yes, there are at least four keepers: me, Matthew, Peregrine Fisher, and WAVY 10. Everyking 05:05, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, it would be rare, but since numbers ≠ consensus, it could happen. Now, the person who normally determines this, an admin, could be useful. If you feel really strongly that there were valid arguments on both sides, but neither were decidedly superior, then you can reopen the discussion and restore the articles. i (said) (did) 05:08, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I have never been able to stand this "numbers don't matter; consensus is determined by admins reading tea leaves" line of argument. I think it is so patently obvious that consensus does not exist that it is downright silly to even argue about it. However, I won't be doing anything unilaterally here. Everyking 05:17, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

(outdent) Well, thats the way things currently work. I suppose the closing could be undone and a {{wider attention}} tag could be placed. i (said) (did) 05:20, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I should point out, this was not a discussion to see who wanted to keep the articles or not. This was a discussion to see if they were notable or not. No one was able to assert any reasonable level of notability. -- Ned Scott 05:33, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

And I think a reasonable level of notability was asserted. I don't think you have any more of a consensus on that point; people who wanted to keep them also felt they were notable enough to have articles (which is, of course, why they voted keep). Everyking 06:43, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, since for something to be notable, it has to have independent sources cover it significantly, there was no notability in these articles. i (said) (did) 07:28, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
You yourself found independent sources for some of the episodes. Everyking 08:00, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

A few people said the pages should be redirected, a few said they shouldn't be redirected, a few references were added, and then the pages were redirected. It's the classic deletionist vs. inclusionist argument. Refs have no effect on the argument. We need some new rules. Something like, every time a reference is added, no redirecteing is allowed. - Peregrine Fisher 08:45, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I don't believe any references were added to any of the episode articles; a few vague Google searches were linked on this page and discussed a bit. --Jack Merridew 13:19, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I added a ref before the page was promptly redirected. Here's the diff. - Peregrine Fisher 18:32, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I missed that; I was working from the list Ned posted when I picked the episodes to add rating refs for. This could be added to the LOE for — I'll have to look more closely — one or both of the Achy episodes. --Jack Merridew 09:42, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
There was more information from that ref on the episode page than there now is in the LOE. It seems like there's a movement to destroy information as long as it helps in destroying episode pages. - Peregrine Fisher 11:44, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
There you go. --Jack Merridew 12:27, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
What? It wasn't just Google searches. I specifically linked to this article. Everyking 19:11, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
This rating source could be added to the LOE, too. Again, I don't see this as establishing notability; not "significant" coverage in "detail"; these amount to "trivial" coverage. If you disagree, resurrect the episode and make your case. --Jack Merridew 09:42, 28 July 2007 (UTC) (struck rating comment; I confused the two buddytv urls, this one gives no rating) --Jack Merridew 10:54, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
  • "Significant coverage" means that sources address the subject directly in detail, and no original research is needed to extract the content. Significant coverage is more than trivial but less than exclusive.
update: I have added ratings w/refs to the Achy episodes in the LOE. --Jack Merridew 10:54, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
I guess you're trying to move the goalposts. What's in that article does not look to me like trivial coverage by any reasonable standard. The episodes are given a paragraph each, explaining their plots; it's not as if they're just mentioned in passing. No original research is necessary to extract the content. Everyking 15:12, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

KEEP I came into this debate late and am new at editing so I tend to go with what others say. I brought up a concern about losing information that I think belong in a complete article about a TV series and was effectively overridden. So I compromised in a way I really didn't want to. I took the statement that this issue was closed as a given and did not feel comfortable enough with my gut reason to debate the issues against Wikipedia lawyers. Given that I was misled. I will state strongly that I want the article pages back. Add me to the list who want to keep them.

I think that notability must be based on the FACT that something is notable to a large interested group. We can't use original research in the articles but I see no reason not to use original research to establish notability. I don't care what Wiki policy says - these articles ARE notable in an absolute sense, even if some good secondary source has not blessed it. The fact that there is significant discussion on the web about them DOES establish that they are notable.

From an other perspective these articles are an organization method of presenting a complete article about something that is established as notable, an Emmy nominated TV Series. This is NOT inherited notability, multiple pages are needed to the cover the subject in the way that is needed. We shouldn't have to establish notability every time we chose to change organizational structure. --NrDg 13:06, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

Huh? "notability must be based on the FACT that something is notable to a large interested group" — How is that different from WP:ILIKEIT? --Jack Merridew 13:25, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
It is different. I am not asserting that I want them to stay because "I Like It". The individual articles are covered by 3d level sources such as TV.com, IMDb and TV Guide. That makes them notable too. I disagree with needing secondary sources to bless the issue. Third level sources can also be used to show notability. --NrDg 13:34, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
tv.com and imdb.com are not reliable sources and TV Guide lists everything as do phonebooks. If those "sources" are allowed to establish notability then Wikipedia will have millions of articles on all the pap that's fit to broadcast. FYI, I didn't mean that you necessarily like it, but that they (who created and/or defend these articles) like it. --Jack Merridew 13:54, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I'd agree except for the fact that TV.com and IMDb aren't particularly reliable when it comes to notability. In addition, TV.com is user-edited (much like Wikipedia), so I definitely wouldn't use that site. WAVY 10 13:54, 27 July 2007 (UTC)
I disagree. Tertiary sources can be used as reliable sources for content as long as they are judged good enough reliable sources for the purpose. Also WP:No original research#Primary, secondary, and tertiary sources. We are not talking about content here anyway, just notability. My judgment is that the tertiary sources IMDb and TV.com are not good enough for content but they are good enough to establish notability. The fact that they are user edited is relevant to the content only. In my judgment, therefore, notability HAS been established. —Preceding unsigned comment added by NrDg (talkcontribs) diff
Those sources are 'phonebooks' — I do not consider them sufficient to establish notability. --Jack Merridew 09:42, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
These sources are more than just phonebooks. The site owners have made some effort to select what to present and they also allow users to add to that. In my opinion that is sufficient to establish notability. It is still a judgement call that we will probably not be able to convince each other of - thus lack of concensus on this issue. The notability 'guidlines' say that significant mention in a non-trivial manner by secondary reliable sources creates a 'presumption' of notability, not proof. Therefore, conversely the lack creates a 'presumption' of non-notabilty, again not proof. These presumptions are both rebuttable if there is sufficient counter evidence. I consider that there has been sufficient evidence for notability. --NrDg 17:48, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
By 'phonebooks' I mean that they list everything — and if they've missed an episode of something, I'm sure they'll get to it. Since such sources are all-inclusive, the view that they can serve to establish notability will lead to a near-infinite number of "notable" episode articles. This extends beyond tv show episodes; there are (or soon will be) all-inclusive "sources" for all manner of things; does Wikipedia have articles for every baseball card ever printed — there must be a list of them out there somewhere to establish their "notability". How about articles on drain clearing products? Find a list and justify a thousand articles? The difference here is that tv shows are popular. In the cases of some of these kiddie shows, this is part of the problem; as I note you've seen, many editors who might reasonable be considered to be children edit the articles related to this show and they add endless trivia, original research and mild vandalism (and the pattern repeats elsewhere). I certainly have little interest in keeping an eye on the whole Hannah Montana cloud of articles for much longer. If episode articles are resurrected, they will surely live out their lives as messy little articles that few editors will want to clean up.
I would take an entirely different view of the notability of these episode articles if the Washington Post took note (or any reputable source) — But BuddyTV.com? They're about Hannah Montana Ring Tones. --Jack Merridew 09:58, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
If it was, say, the Washington Post listing that info (fat chance), I'd agree 100% WAVY 10 18:40, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

As Ned commented above, no one established any notability for the episode articles. The discussion had gone quiet after several comments were made to the effect that they would then be redirected. I redirected them and added the viewers column to the LOE as per others comments. Hey, they're all still there; this isn't about 'delete'. I will refrain from further edits on this score and see where this goes. They have not established their notability. --Jack Merridew 13:19, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

I thought the discussion had gone quiet after equal numbers of people on both sides of the argument had said their pieces, and were unable to convince each other. That's pretty much the definition of "lack of consensus". —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 07:08, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
There's now 4 references for the two Achy Jakey Heart episodes, if we combine them into one page. Is that enough notability for their own article? It could be the exemplar page to show people how to make episode pages. - Peregrine Fisher 19:53, 28 July 2007 (UTC)
Well, I'm in favor. Everyking 06:55, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Me too — there's absolutely enough notability established for that story. —Josiah Rowe (talkcontribs) 07:08, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Unfortunatly it also shows that it is possible to get the information in the summary in an effective manner. What additional benefit would we have by creating an episode page with nothing more than the same information? If that is all we are doing, this is just a formatting choice of how to present the information. All the episodes have established notiblity by virtue of having things in secondary & tertiary references "noting" or writing about them. The problem is that we must USE primary (without evaluation) or secondary sources to add verifyable information to the articles. What really makes these episodes any different? --NrDg 16:35, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
NrDg makes a good point here; the LOE format can cover minor bits beyond plot summary (although I would be inclined to trim some of what has been added recently to the Achy summary — but will refrain). --Jack Merridew 10:04, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

I see that Achy Jakey Heart has appeared. It will be interesting to see how this evolves. --Jack Merridew 15:32, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

HM has this werid system of coming out on DVD not by season, but by story arcs. When Achy Jakey comes out on DVD, it will be easy to make a "Reception" section with 5 to 10 references. - Peregrine Fisher 15:57, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
It's not just HM. I think all of the current Disney Channel series release episodes in this manner. Hopefully, when these shows have ended their run, they will do the smart thing and come out with a "normal" DVD release. WAVY 10 16:07, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
a clever ploy to get folks to buy the same content twice. --Jack Merridew 16:17, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] production code 123

I just noticed that there are two episodes listed with production code '123' and not knowing where these numbers came from have no way of being sure how to fix this. --Jack Merridew 09:57, 28 July 2007 (UTC)

I made all the production codes match the directory information at TV.COM. That source is used by in a lot of episode details by a number of shows and looks to be a reliable reference. Best is U.S. copyright Office but they seem to lag a lot. --NrDg 16:25, 29 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Guest Starring List

I removed co-star credited actors from the guest star list. I created the guest star list from watching the episode credits and the actors listed are in the credited order. If someone wishes to create a co-star list, that is fine. I was planning on doing that too when I had time but if you do so please list them in credited order as the order is meaningfully. --NrDg 12:51, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

I'll do that then. :-) ZSoraz 15:14, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
I thought Daniel Samonas was a guest star on the episode, I Can't Make You Love Hannah If You Don't, since he's pretty much a big part of that episode starring as Josh. O_o ZSoraz 15:25, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
You're right, I missed it. He is on the second page and is listed last in the guest star list. My bad. I'll add him back.--NrDg 15:29, 31 July 2007 (UTC)
I'm thinking that we probably shouldn't list ALL the co-stars, probably just the ones that have named characters, not things like "Pizza Delivery Guy" unless they had a significant part. The co-star list can get quite long with really minor characters. --NrDg 17:00, 31 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No Sugar, Sugar

This is just me but I'm not sure whether this is a real episode or not. It seems highly unlikely that they would have an episode based around terrorism. I may be wrong but this is my opinion. Race t 16:23, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Doubtful, but pretty sure that "plot" was vandalism. WAVY 10 18:54, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
It's about Oliver having diabetes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.27.108.99 (talk) 03:24, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
Could someone please fix the "controversy" statement? The controversy lies in the fact that you cannot get type 1 diabetes from eating sugar. The parents at Children with Diabetes were simply trying to point that fact out. We didn't really want to see the script but we would have liked it if Disney had gotten their facts straight. We'd like the main article to reference appropriate Type 1 Diabetes information. --Frizzyr (talk) 12:58, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New DVD

On ultimatedisney.com, there is a new DVD to be released entitled "Hannah Montana: One in a Million" due out in January. Little is known about it yet, except for that it will feature the Jonas Brothers episode, music videos, and a top 10 countdown of Disney Channel Character Feuds. Sounds Great! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockstarbud (talkcontribs) 17:54, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Also, you guys put that a Jonas Brother music video will be included, when there is no proof on ultimatedisney that states this, they only say there will be music videos. Plus the episode "Me and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas" will be featured on the DVD. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockstarbud (talkcontribs) 21:29, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

The DVD and episodes/bonus features have been confirmed on disneydvd.com. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockstarbud (talkcontribs) 20:52, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

DisneyDVD.com has added another bonus feature to the DVD, an episode of That's So Raven. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rockstarbud (talkcontribs) 16:38, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

Where exactly did you see that. Give an exact URL. I looked on the site and found nothing of the sort. --NrDg 16:48, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Songs

Does anyone know why some of the "Songs Featured:" won't appear? I could swear that I saw some in "edit this page" that didn't appear. ZSoraz 23:13, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Archive 1

I just archived the oldest part of the talk page (prior to 2nd episode review). WAVY 10 18:11, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Jonas Brothers episode

The Jonas Brothers episode needs an independent article. It is referred toin this article as "basic cable's most watched series episode ever" with 10.7 million viewers. Everyking 06:22, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Me and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas

This episode is currently #1 on the iTunes "Top TV Episodes" List —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.226.188.254 (talk) 22:27, August 20, 2007 (UTC)

Well, let's line up some sources for this one (since it set a record for basic cable series telecasts...even though it had HSM2 for a lead-in WAVY 10 17:14, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] New Episodes

i just found out that 2 new episodes of Hannah Montana are called i don't have to tell everyone and bionic boy!!!Hailee69 02:10, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

I know what the next 8 episodes are called. Unfortunately the source is not usable on Wikipedia so can't add the information. Suggest waiting until they show up on TV Guide or a directory of similar reliability.--NrDg 02:18, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

On the same subject, just with the announced episodes, should we now delete the TV Guide paragraph since we already have put the episodes on the table? ZSoraz 08:24, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I removed the episode information obtained from TVRage, we can't use that as a source and it conflicts with the data in TV.com which we can use. I previously tried adding TVRage info to the table with cites to TVRage and Wikipedia has blacklisted using that site as a source. --NrDg 12:44, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Yet More Vandalism

Some IP is changing the titles of different episodes. Reverted twice by me already. WAVY 10 22:49, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Revert it and give the IP a vandalism warning on their talk page. They get 4 warnings and they could get banned if they are blatant. If this continues over the next few days I'll try to get the page protected again. Admins won't protect unless the vandalism is fairly heavy.

[edit] Just liked to say something...

Not saying there have been any recent additions of this information on this page, but about the 8 episodes said to become aired from TV Rage, you have to think if a summary where Lilly's Mom falls in love with Robby, when she is already married (i.e. Lilly's mentioned Dad in such episodes recently aired episodes like Achy Jakey Heart), wouldn't seem practical for a Disney show. This is just to alert people who did think that kind of episode would happen (I thought it would once, til I remembered the Dad, lol). --ZSoraz 23:34, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Smells Like Teen Sellout

What happened to this episode? They haven't showed it in forever, and even on the Disney Channel website where it lists the schedule, it also keeps a list of the episodes, and it's not on the list. Did they stop showing the episode because it didn't have enough viewers? Why don't they show it anymore? --

It's still on. I saw it twice this week.Dshibshm (talk) 21:43, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Errors and missing info in episode summaries

The title of episode 18, "People Who Use People," is a play on Barbra Streisand's "People Who Need People," not Kinky Friedman's "People Who Read People Magazine." And it's not the fourth episode featured on the "Hannah Montana: Pop Star Profile" DVD; episode 19 is. The title of episode 39, "I Want You to Want Me...To Go To Florida" plays off the title of "I Want You To Want Me" by Cheap Trick. All references to the origin of the title of episode 40, "Everybody Was Kung Fu Fighting" by Carl Douglas, have disappeared. The title of episode 42, "Me and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas" references "Me and Mrs. Jones" by Billy Paul. The title of episode 44, "That's What Friends Are For?" is a play on "That's What Friends Are For" by Dionne Warwick, Gladys Knight, Elton John and Stevie Wonder. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.91.195.70 (talk) 07:35, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

At the bottom of the page, it says there's an episode where Miley almost gets struck by lightning and sees her mother. Is this true? It seems a bit far-fetched. 76.27.108.99 03:28, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Disney does have a tendency to get a little wacky at times with some episodes (you could argue the whole premise of this show could be considered far-fetched), so I think that could be possible unless we find word stating otherwise. WAVY 10 Fan 15:01, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Is it THAT important?

If the last few episodes say "U.K. premiered this on (Date)", then why not put it for all? What makes them so special? I say we should remove that in the case that nobody really cares about when it aired because many of us don't live in the U.K. --AOL Alex (talk) 16:46, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

It is important until it airs in the US and we have a US Airdate to put in the US Airdate column. Its only purpose right now is to show that the episode has actually aired someplace and that the information in the show's entry is based on something other than unsupported speculation or unreliable leaks from fan sites and enough people have actually SEEN the episode to correct mistakes. I would prefer the Airdate column to reflect the first general broadcast viewing worldwide, not just the US Airdate, but we would need reliable sources of guide data from the other countries to make this info verifiable. As of now we can refer to TV Guide and other reliable guide directories for US information. What do we have for other countries that is as reliable and verifiable? --NrDg 17:22, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Smells Like Teen Sellout

I watch Hannah Montana a lot, but the episode 'Smells Like Teen Sellout' I do not remember. Many sites have it listed as an episode, so I don't know if it should be deleted from the page or not. Was it an episode for a foreign country? Abluescarab (talk) 09:07, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dispute over episode article

User:TTN is repeatedly redirecting the article on the episode Me and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas and Mr. Jonas, which is the highest-rated episode in cable TV history, despite the presence of non-plot based information and references in the article. I ask that some other people please weigh in on the issue so we can reach a consensus on what to do with the article. Everyking (talk) 19:30, 27 January 2008 (UTC)

There is clear and sufficient evidence for notability. I don't see how the page could be redirected. - PeaceNT (talk) 19:44, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
The only information in the article that is notable is the ratings information. There are no critical reviews or other 3d party analysis of the episode. The ratings information has been attached to the episodes info in the list of episodes article. The conclusion of it being the highest rated can be added with references to the episode entry as well. We really don't NEED an article about this episode as sufficient information about the episode is in the list of episodes article already. If you pare the article down to the essentials, we get what is in the table in the list article. I think the episode article is therefore redundant and we lose nothing by redirecting. --NrDg 20:14, 27 January 2008 (UTC) Also see related discussions at #Lack of consensus. --NrDg 20:18, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
As an added thought. This discussion might be moot soon as the episode has been released on DVD and may garner significant critical evaluation and reviews. An article on the DVD itself is therefore possible and a pointer to that DVD can be include in the table entry and the episode article redirected there as well. --NrDg 20:57, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Moderately notable? Sure ... the cable record at least hints at it. Notable enough for it's own article? Probably not. Right now, the information you have from a reliable third-party source consists of This episode debuted alongside High School Musical 2 and a sneak peek of the new Disney Channel show Phineas and Ferb.[1] The episode broke basic cable records with a record 10.7 million viewers and became basic cable's most watched series telecast ever.. Since an article must be primarily based on third-party sources, that means (using the most liberal interpretation of primarily possible), that the material provided by non-independent sources can't exceed that in size. That gives you a plot summary along the lines of Miley gets jealous of the time her dad starts spending songwriting with the "JoBros", as he calls them (which she also refers to as a 'Jo-Bromance'), than the time with her, so she tries to act guyish in hopes that Robby will spend more time with her instead of them. So, there's your entire article:
  • Miley gets jealous of the time her dad starts spending songwriting with the "JoBros", as he calls them (which she also refers to as a 'Jo-Bromance'), than the time with her, so she tries to act guyish in hopes that Robby will spend more time with her instead of them. This episode debuted alongside High School Musical 2 and a sneak peek of the new Disney Channel show Phineas and Ferb.[1] The episode broke basic cable records with a record 10.7 million viewers and became basic cable's most watched series telecast ever.
That doesn't look like an article to me ... it looks like a list entry. If and when there are a number of independent, third-party sources that discuss this particular episode directly and in detail, providing information that does not consist of a plot summary, go for it. Until then, it goes in the list. A note about the ratings is justified.Kww (talk) 21:12, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Isn't this argument nothing more than: "this is the information I feel is most important—you don't need to know the rest"? Of course, the goalposts are always moved; if critical reviews could be found, the deletionists would say we need more of them, and if we found a bunch, then they would say that critical reviews alone aren't enough in any number, and so on. The Mr. Jonas article satisfies the requirement of having non-plot based information and references, which is supposed to be the deletionist standard for having articles; furthermore, it has the exceptional distinction of being the highest rated cable episode ever. I am not naive enough to sit here and have an argument about some brand new requirements. Everyking (talk) 04:32, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
No, this argument is "There are guidelines and policies on Wikipedia. We follow them. Following them means that this article can't be supported." No one is making up new requirements ... if you read WP:V and WP:N, you will see that I have represented them faithfully and accurately.Kww (talk) 11:37, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
I've been working on this project for four years. You've been here for one. Please don't presume to tell me I don't know basic policies. Everyking (talk) 17:54, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
It's quite obvious that you don't. Please tell me how you could possibly think that this article relies on third-party sources, and, if not, why you think that it is exempt from needing to.Kww (talk) 18:12, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
The general topic has a lot of passion on both sides. The issue is in the grey issue of the definition of "significant" which is a judgment call on each individual subject area and how each person defines it. There is some line between none and overwhelming. Significant does not necessarily have to mean a lot of different places. It can also mean one place with more than a directory level mention to some people. Doesn't mean they are wrong, just that they have a different threshold. The notability guidelines are guidelines, not strict policy. In my judgment this article meets the base notability requirement in that some set of rational editors have judged it as having sufficient coverage. There is disagreement - I hope a decision can be made on other factors than just notability as this is effectively a semantics argument of which definitions of words are the correct ones. --NrDg 18:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
I wish it could, but it is a policy argument. "Significant" is defined as being a "direct and detailed examination" in WP:N.
One source listed contains this text:Airing after HSM2, a 15-minute preview of the upcoming animated series Phineas & Ferb (10.8 million) and an all-new Hannah Montana (10.7 million) likewise scored big. In fact, per the Disney Channel, Friday's Hannah Montana now ranks as basic cable's most watched series episode ever. Doesn't even provide the title of the episode, much less the name of a star, ... hardly a detailed reference. On top of that, it doesn't credit an impartial source like Nielsen for the record claim .. it credits the broadcaster itself.
The other source contains After that, it's a brand new episode of Hannah Montana featuring the Jonas Brothers, who are currently on tour with Miley Cyrus. On the episode, Miley's dad (Billy Ray Cyrus) starts writing songs for The Jonas Brothers. This, of course, prompts Miley to become jealous and upset. By the end of the episode, Miley and The Jonas Brother make peace and even sing a duet together. A bit more detail, but it's all plot summary, probably quoted verbatim from MickeyNews. So, at best, one third-party source, and it's suspect.Kww (talk) 22:19, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
I recognize there is a major conflict on all the TV show episode articles based on some editors strict reading of the guidelines vs show enthusiast desire to have in depth consistent coverage. This show and article has become just another battleground between the two opposing sides and I fear the goal is becoming more to prove a point than do what is right for this particular show. I accept the fact that the Mr. Jonas article satisfies the base requirement to be an article. Given that, MUST it be an article. That is an editorial choice and I don't see that as moving the goalposts. We went through this a bunch of months ago and somewhat agreed to a compromise to add the essential information to the list of episodes entries and have episode articles when notability beyond ratings info published. There are very few episode articles left now for THIS show. I personally don't like that imbalance. In the instant case the only thing in the article that is not in the list entry is a fuller plot description. Is that sufficient reason to have a full article? Even if by guidelines we could, should we? --NrDg 05:13, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Yes, we should always strive for comprehensive coverage of notable subjects. Everyking (talk) 05:17, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
Actually, NrDg, my goal is to apply the policies we have to the articles we have. To me, this case isn't much different than my efforts against the constant creation of Upcoming Second Album without a Title or Release Date. The article cannot be written to meet policies and guidelines with the sources available, and thus needs to become a redirect.Kww (talk) 11:37, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
  • Hannah, again? We've been through this. Yes, I see that this is an episode subsequent to the review at the top of this page. Could we have an article on this? Yes. Should we? No. Have most of the arguments been around the block before? Yes. And, No, I'm not going to go through them all over again for this. Popularity != Notability. Be sure the rating stat is mentioned in the LOE and redirect this puppy. --Jack Merridew 12:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
    • Yes, we've been through it. Are you pretending it was resolved? As usual, deletionists just did what they wanted regardless of any objections, getting their way through force. However, this particular discussion is much more limited than the past discussion; we are now dealing with one key episode that happens to be the highest rated in cable TV history. I recall in the past discussion deletionists assured us that if we had non-plot based information and references, we could keep the articles. But the goalposts got moved again. Everyking (talk) 17:54, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
      • Why is this being discussed again? Everyking stop wikilawyering. Your claims and actions here are wantonly struthioniformic given Wikipedia policies at WP:NOT and you should know better. Bicker if you will, but you cannot change consensus by getting in a snit on this talk page. Go to WP:NOT and change our current injunctions. Then this can be restored from a redirect. Alternatively, junk the plot and trivia crap - they should be reduced to ca. 50 words - and let's get some proper sourcing and context for the ratings achievement and then, at least, a marginal case could be made for retention. Eusebeus (talk) 22:04, 31 January 2008 (UTC)
        • OK, let's start small. You want "proper sourcing"—that implies you feel the current sourcing (for the ratings) is inadequate. What sort of source would be adequate—you don't feel E! News is a proper source? Or is it a matter of the number of sources? Everyking (talk) 04:47, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
          • Funny, I just checked today and the pilot is still around. WAVY 10 Fan (talk) 19:20, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
          • A source for the ratings that isn't attributed to the producer of the show would be acceptable. Your source today only says that Disney claims that it is the highest rated show, not that it has been verified by an independent organization. After you fix that, you will have to either reduce the rest of the article to less than that solitary sourced statement, or increase the number of sourced statements to outweigh the plot summary and such. Remember, you cannot base an article primarily on self-published material.Kww (talk) 19:35, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
            • I said we're starting small; if we talk about the big picture we'll have a pointless clash of philosophies. Eusebeus said it needed "proper sourcing", but you are saying that the only problem is that the info comes from Disney (through a third-party source), in which case the sourcing is proper, it just may need to be amended with a note that it is a claim from Disney and not definite fact. Based on his wording, I'm assuming Eusebeus has some problem with the sources themselves. Everyking (talk) 00:44, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
              • The sources do not give the article independent notability. The one relevant part about the ratings has at least two other target articles that it can be placed within. That cannot hold an article. TTN (talk) 00:47, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                • If I understand your position correctly, you want to see a source that primarily discusses this episode? So, for example, the E! News article would justify having an independent article on HSM2, but not on this episode? Everyking (talk) 01:00, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                  • We need multiple sources that discuss how the episode was created, why it received such high ratings, how it was received in general, and anything else like that. TTN (talk) 01:06, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                  • Let's say, hypothetically, that we had a lot of great sources that covered all of those things except how it was created. Because we had so much content, all of which was clearly notable and well-sourced, it couldn't be fit into a list without sacrificing most of the content. What course would you recommend? Everyking (talk) 01:12, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                    • If the reception section is fully developed (a few good paragraphs), I imagine that it could probably stand. If we only get three sentences, probably not. TTN (talk) 01:24, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                      • So an article's existence doesn't necessarily depend on having content on all these aspects; two out of three could suffice (probably—there is presumably some other factor at work). Let's say there's only good content on one out of three, but we have five paragraphs of great content on that one aspect. Obviously we can't merge all that, but everyone agrees the information is good and belongs in the encyclopedia. Should we exclude that content? In other words, is reducing the number of pages more important, or is preserving good content more important? Everyking (talk) 01:30, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                        • Notability is defined by real world coverage. If we can show that this episode is truly special through reliable sources, it can stay. The balance of information is what we need to figure out right now. TTN (talk) 01:38, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                          • I thought that was a pretty good, straight question, and you didn't give me a straight answer. If notability is established, and the quantity of notable content exceeds what can be placed in a list, should this "balance" of different types of information still be required for there to be an article? Everyking (talk) 01:47, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                            • I just stated if the episode proves itself, it can stay. The balance of information comes afterwards. TTN (talk) 13:02, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
                            • And yes, as I already stated, if the reception section is a fully valid and fleshed out section, it can hold the topic on its own. TTN (talk) 13:05, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
  • I've never edited this article before, but I've been bold and redirected it. The rating is covered in the LOE and by any reasonable measure notability has not been established. --Jack Merridew 13:20, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
    So you felt it would be better to "be bold" than to participate in the discussion and reach consensus? Everyking (talk) 16:06, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
    You have had a week, and haven't corrected the problems. You've haven't made any case for why this article should be exempted from the requirements laid down in WP:N. The article is available in the history of the redirect. Why don't you spend some time fixing it, and then bring it back?Kww (talk) 16:24, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
    I have been trying to get you guys to clearly articulate what you think is required for this to have an article. Without that, it would be crazy for me to invest my time in something that is likely to be redirected again. Everyking (talk) 18:35, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
    I've been extremely clear. Here we go again. Find reliable sources for your factual claims, not sources that trace back to the producer. Then, find enough reliable, third-party sources with enough information so that there is more of that information than there is plot summary and cast list. It probably isn't possible, but I don't see what is unclear about it.Kww (talk) 20:06, 2 February 2008 (UTC)
    What you're saying makes no sense: the source used doesn't become unreliable or inaccurate just because it attributes its information to Disney. It's ludicrous to suggest we shouldn't use a source because the source qualifies itself by attributing the information to another source. Everyking (talk) 05:59, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
    Not ludicrous at all. The best you can do with your current source is a statement like "Disney states that this is the highest rated basic cable show of all time." With Nielsen as a source, you can actually say "This is the highest rated basic cable show of all time." That's the minor point ... the real problem is how to get enough material to build an article with. You need much more sourced material than that one line.Kww (talk) 11:21, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
    That the line may need to be qualified does not in any way invalidate the source. Sources do not become unreliable and inaccurate because they say "according to..." Everyking (talk) 13:34, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
    OK, there's the fix for one line. What are you going to do to find enough third-party information to outweigh the plot summary, so that the article is primarily constructed from information derived from third-party sources?Kww (talk) 13:46, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • The issues have been well-aired [pun intended]. See the comments other than yours [Everyking] above, and read them. The rating is mentioned in the LOE and that is plenty. You can not support an article on a rating; the goalpost is set a lot higher than that. Popularity != Notability. Cheers, Jack Merridew 07:54, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] "Ships Featured"??

What does this mean? All that listed is stuff like 'Jiley', 'Moliver', and such forth. I don't see where people came up with this, and if it's true, please tell me why this is some-what important to this article. Abcw12 (talk) 00:08, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

It is meaningless nonsense and has been removed. Fan invented names are not a creation of the show writers so don't belong. --NrDg 03:11, 10 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Proposal to split article into separate season articles

This article is getting too long and a bit unwieldy to maintain. It is proposed to split the article into separate season articles as is done on other shows. Please comment.

  • Approve Will allow for additional detail when appropriate. See WP:SIZE and WP:SPLIT for recommendations. --NrDg 02:10, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve I agree, as if we had season pages it would be more easy to read, and not all jumbled and confused like this. We could clean it up in both season pages, and perhaps some time in the future it could end up like The Simpsons (season 8), and Lost (season 3), both of which are featured in the WP:EPISODE article, under the "season pages" heading. If we could split it, then we'd be able to elaborate evenly with every episode and not keep it jumbled as it is right now.- Yours truly, S (talk) 17:05, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve per previous reasons, and also we could possibly going into a little more detail with the individual episode descriptions. WAVY 10 Fan (talk) 16:11, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve. It takes forever to scroll. OneWeirdDude (talk) 14:38, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approves - list of episodes shouldn't be about all plots, just a list of episodes, and it does take forever to scroll too.Phyzik. 23:01, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Clarification/Response to Phyzik: I should have said that there could be more detail pertaining to season production notes. WAVY 10 Fan (talk) 15:47, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve I agree, we can make a short plot for the List of Hannah Montana episodes. And a more detailed plot for the pages of each season. Yuri Dutra (talk) 20:27, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve It will make things tons easier to find —Preceding unsigned comment added by Giarc37 (talkcontribs) 14:05, 27 March 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve That will make it more easier for people :) --Kanonkas, Take Contact (talk) 19:50, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Comment: Here's an example of a possible format. Leave it to Beaver Season 1 page WAVY 10 Fan (talk) 14:18, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve per previous reasons. J8149ZZ (talk) 18:48, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Approve: Some kids could come here and wonder about the eps. If we split it, then I don't think any HM fan wouldn't come here to know about the eps they missed. Pokemon Buffy Titan (talk) 11:08, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
i see no disagreements, so we should start the split!- Yours truly, [ S ] υ ρ є r ı o r reply! 18:59, 20 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] New Episode

There is a new episode showing in the Uk on Disney Channel on Friday at 5.30. Source: http://www.sky.com/portal/site/skycom/tvguide/tvlistings I don't know how to do a table but there is the information.

Title: You Didn't Say It's Your Birthday Miley and Jackson forget about Robbie's 40th Birthday and throw him a surprise party to try and cover it up.

If someone could do the table that would be great. Mouseinthehouse (talk) 19:10, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

It's true. And there's a new episode, the episode aired in Brazil. I don't know its real name, but the episode is in the portuguese page (Português) of List of Hannah Montana episodes. In the episode, Miley likes a guy, son of a billionary man. When they have a date, the guy's family is very snobbish and ends up with everything. Meanwhile Robby and Jackson try to organize Jackson's room. (If there's something wrong with my English, I'm sorry, I'm from Brazil). Yuri Dutra (talk) 17:31, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
