Centralized TV Episode Discussion

Over the past months, TV episodes have been redirected by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here [1]. --Maniwar (talk) 01:32, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Dates

Despite the top line of the article stating that the poll was carried out in 2000 and even a warning line in the edit box, people still keep adding post 2000 dates to the list. Why don't people read the article before changing it?Tuzapicabit (talk) 15:49, 7 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe the warning needs to be after every closing date in the list? 46.208.245.63 (talk) 13:33, 29 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Red Dwarf

Why wasn't Red Dwarf included on this list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pickuptha'Musket (talk • contribs) 17:16, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I guess for the same reasons thousands of other programmes weren't included as well. Bob talk 19:55, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing of article has begun

Please continue it. The BBC News article in the "Further reading" section is a good place to start, to correct unsourced text. Unfortunately, a great deal of content in the section describing how the poll was done appears to come from another source, other than the two listed or that BBC News source not yet cited. That is, some editorial forensics must take place, to solve the issues with WP:OR and WP:VERIFY caused by the sloppiness of the earlier editors. 2601:246:C700:9B0:7573:9C20:A653:9660 (talk) 05:44, 5 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

"Because the list reports decisions made in the year 2000, programmes and series are presented as they were perceived in that year; as such, ones not yet having concluded by the year 2000 are presented as having an open-ended date span in the "Year(s)" column, even if they have subsequently ended.[verification needed]"

I am not 100% certain what the point of the tag is. What the original editor says, that the end date was not provided for shows still currently airing in 2000, only makes logical sense as the folks compiling it would not have a crystal ball to see when in the future those would end. I suppose with the benefit of hindsight we could add those in but then you have to make the equally awkward statement that "We have added in an end date for the TV shows that would have been mid-run as of 2000 when the list was selected."

I don't think any post 2000 dates should be added, because the shows were only judged up till 2000. To give an example, I don't think Ab Fab would be as high as it is if the post 2000 episodes were included.Tuzapicabit (talk) 20:09, 11 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
