Read the lede of the article, nightly ratings aren't included or the article would be a 10 miles long. TomCat4680 (talk) 19:16, 3 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Meloni and Edelstein

[edit]

Do their departures from SVU and House respectively deserve mentions? Or at least one of them?--Harmony944 (talk) 23:03, 24 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Should this article be broken up into smaller ones?

[edit]

This article is over 300 kB. Shouldn't it be split into smaller articles referenced from this page? Thanks! Phoenix--Jax 0677 (talk) 20:40, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose Makes it too complicated that way. Keep it as one article. TomCat4680 (talk) 23:48, 25 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
BTW you can't just split articles this large without reaching a consensus among other contributors to do so first. TomCat4680 (talk) 06:07, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose The format is fine as is. It isn't perfect and it is a broad topic, but to further split and split would cause readers to go around in circles. The original 2011 in television split into regional pages made sense because the original was absolutely too large, but again if we continue to split, then readers will get lost in a sea of pages.(Tigerghost (talk) 06:27, 26 February 2012 (UTC))[reply]
After giving the article another glance, I personally do not like the "continuing shows" section. It seems to eat up a lot of space and I feel that it could merit its own page or could be bulked into one page in a list format for the entire decade since the information is repeated in most articles anyway. Thoughts? (Tigerghost (talk) 06:33, 26 February 2012 (UTC))[reply]
I agree, the "continuing shows" section is unnecessary and redundant. TomCat4680 (talk) 07:10, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Do you have any recommendations for the title of the "continuing shows" article? I propose "List of television shows continuing into 2011" or "List of television shows in 2011".--Jax 0677 (talk) 18:12, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
How about something like "List of American television shows currently airing new episodes" or "List of American television shows currently in production". Just some of my ideas, others may have more. TomCat4680 (talk) 00:29, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I think "list of continuing television shows" is what it should be called. - imadethisusernamemyself
Continuing since when though? Kind of defeats the purpose of a separate article. TomCat4680 (talk) 18:30, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just split this part off.--Jax 0677 (talk) 00:24, 23 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Programs Premiering in 2011" cleanup

[edit]

I think we need a bit of a clean up in the "Programs Premiering in 2011" section of the page. There are numerous entries that still say "TBA" or the season in which the specific program was set to premiere & there's even an entry for a program set to premiere in 2012 in this section, some dates are out of order as well. So yeah, I think we need to work on cleaning that section up a bit. EpiSonic (talk) 18:12, 29 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in 2011 in American television

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 2011 in American television's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "about":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 05:03, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
