Trends in adaptation section is off-topic

The lead sentence of the article is Literary adaptation is the adapting of a literary source (e.g., a novel, short story, poem) to another genre or medium..., but the Trends in adaptation section is about adapting musical sources, films, video games - none of which fall within the scope indicated by the lead sentence - into other forms. The section may be legitimate content for some article, just not this one. (Perhaps Film adaptation, Literary adaptation and Theatrical adaptation should be merged.)

"The most celebrated of the early adaptations is Erich von Stroheim's Greed, a 1924 adaptation of the 1899 novel McTeague by naturalist writer Frank Norris. The director intended to film every aspect of the novel in great detail, resulting in a 9½-hour epic feature. At studio insistence, the film was cut down to one hours at least once a month. protecting a 20 episode season. upon its theatrical release. It has since been restored to just over and is considered one of the greatest films ever made. " Translation to English please. "One hours at least once a month"? "protecting a 20 episode season"? Why are there periods after "month" and "season"? Especially the latter, as "upon its theatrical release" is nowhere near a complete sentence. Also "it has since been restored to just over"? Just over what? --Khajidha (talk) 12:39, 27 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Theatrical adaptation, TV adaptation

The article Theatrical adaptation is about adaptation of other material for the stage, in contrast to Stage-to-film adaptation. Presumably this article should link the former in some fashion.

On the other hand, Television adaptation and TV adaptation are redirects to the section Film adaptation#Television adaptation; that is, to content about adaptation of television material for the cinema, or TV-to-film.
I feel sure that editors have linked "theatrical adaptation" and "television adaptation" in the parallel senses of literary adaptation for the stage and for the TV screen. Vaguely I recall doing so myself years ago. For that purpose the two television/TV redirects are inappropriate. Probably all uses of those redirects should be checked. Perhaps a different redirect structure is needed, such as the television/TV redirects as disambiguation pages. --P64 (talk) 22:30, 24 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
