Cory Monteith

Is the death of Cory Monteith relevant to this article? Squidoh (talk) 12:00, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Probably not as much as people think. A piece about it in the production section would be fine (I can't imagine not mentioning it at all considering how big a part of the show he is, or was) but it should be kept in the context of the show and how his death will affect the writing and filming. -- SchrutedIt08 (talk) 12:05, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Season background color

There has been an objection to the season 5 background color, a green, which resulted in a change to a purple/lilac: "Change the season color, because that green color was used in season 4 before they changed to currentky pink." I'd like to propose that we keep it green for now (and have reverted the change accordingly); it contrasts well with the pink.

The reason is that the season colors are eventually changed to match the season's DVD packaging color, and we don't yet know what that will be. We'll want to have something for season 5 that contrasts well with the DVD color for season 4, but they haven't yet released the cover art for that DVD. (Amazon is using one of the "posters" that Glee used in the days leading up to the fourth season premiere for their artwork until the official cover art is released. The DVD has been delayed from mid-September to October 1 in the U.S.)

Last season, when we realized that the green was not an official color, there was a discussion on Talk: Glee (season 4)#Colour, and a consensus for the current fourth season color was arrived at. This is the color used now; it was always intended to be temporary until the DVD artwork was released. BlueMoonset (talk) 19:26, 16 August 2013 (UTC)

• Now that we have a season 4 cover, assuming we stick with the new idea of DVD logo colors for seasons (red, blue, yellow, light teal), the green we've been using for season 5 is now too close to the light teal that was used for season 4. I'd like to suggest we pick something with good contrast to all the other seasons as our color for the next year until that DVD is released, something like a good orange (which we had used for season 2) or that interesting magenta-like color we were using for season 4 until a little while ago. Thoughts? BlueMoonset (talk) 05:50, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Agreed, no reason not to adjust this season's colour to fit with the others. Go for it. -- SchrutedIt08 (talk) 05:58, 26 August 2013 (UTC)

Hearing no further comments, I think I'll go with the orange. Among other things, it might prevent users from trying to use an orangey color for season 4 based on its background. BlueMoonset (talk) 20:50, 2 September 2013 (UTC)

Why can't we change the season color, i mean the orange was used on season 2 before, can we put another color like purple or a violet-blue? ZairaTangled —Preceding undated comment added 05:59, 5 October 2013 (UTC)

It really doesn't matter what was used before; what matters is what's being used across all the seasons right now, since we made the switchover. Really dark colors like purple or violet-blue are harder on the eyes. I think orange is quite readable, and it seems to have worked fine for a month now. Don't you think orange is readable?

100th Episode

Wanted to propose adding the 100th episode to the article. It marks several important plot turns, as well as the return of many guest characters. Also, an independent article can be started for it. Granite999 (talk) 11:26, 11 January 2014 (PST)

Since we reliably have dates for the episode, even if there isn't a title, there's no reason I can see not to include it in the table, along with a summary based on published details (and source citations for the date and the summary). However, until there is a reliably sourced title for the 100th episode, an article should not be started for it. (Which means that the title can't be rumored, or come from wikias or tumblrs or sites that get their info from same: places like Wetpaint and mjsbigblog and Hypable and even broadway.com tend to pass such information along from such unreliable sources, which renders their own reporting problematic from Wikipedia's point of view. Actually, Hypable as a fan site is by definition unreliable.) Details about the episode itself can be added to the Production and Cast sections; there's already material on it in both places.

• Not done: please be more specific about what needs to be changed. This doesn't contain a specific request—which two forthcoming episodes and what their names are—and what the reliable source is that contains those names. Please revise your request if you wish it to be considered. Thank you. BlueMoonset (talk) 00:26, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
