Ideas

Here are some ideas for making this article shorter:

Clean up the trivia section. Are the Classic Concentration sound effects all that encyclopedic, being stock Goodson-Todman effects?
For that matter, I think that Classic Concentration is different enough from its predecessors to merit an article of its own. JHVipond 01:31, 20 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, no, they're not all stock Goodson-Todman effects. The winning bells and losing buzzers were used exclusively by NBC. Fauxuser782 17:21, 12 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cleanup

Give this sources and some images and it's a Good Article, easily. FamicomJL 16:20, 28 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Clogo1.gif

Image:Clogo1.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Who owns the rights?

I feel really stupid, but this sentence makes no sense: "NBC/Universal still holds exclusive rights to both the format and extant episodes of Concentration; however, due to Financial Interest and Syndication Rules, this version is owned by CBS Television Distribution." This sentence seems to say NBC owns it exclusively, but CBS owns this version. Could someone explain what I'm missing? Thanks!THX1136 (talk) 17:30, 7 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Trips

I was watching a repeat episode today (August 15) when someone won’t a trip to the Bahamas. I think they said the contestant and guest would be flown to Miami. How do they get from Miami to Bahamas? 69.124.24.153 (talk) 21:56, 15 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They walked.....of course! 24.239.113.30 (talk) 05:58, 13 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Time to update the episode count for the 1987-1991 run

There is now evidence that it had 1,090 episodes. The Buzzr schedule for June 15, 2024 listed #1087 and #1088 under the source code. Right-click view-page source. https://buzzrtv.com/schedule/schedule_by_date/24-6-15/America/New_York/ Loyalist2024 (talk) 06:24, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
