4 episodes

I have added the information. We'll still need a third-party source, though this should suffice until then. Trailblazer101 (talk) 03:21, 14 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Move?

Vellani has confirmed voice acting is done, which would allow this to move to the mainspace, though I'm in no rush to do that just yet if others were ok holding back on it as well. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:51, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have no opposition to move it if the voice acting is complete. ZooBlazer 18:02, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I support moving to the mainspace now. Trailblazer101 (talk) 18:09, 29 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I have no problem moving it now. — SirDot (talk) 11:25, 12 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of repeated text in this relatively short article

Trailblazer101 has reverted my edits because they break existing conventions, which, fair enough. But conforming to those conventions has yielded an article that treats its readers to lots of redundant text. For example:

"explores an alternate timeline in the multiverse introduced in the What If...? episode "What If... Zombies?!", a group of survivors must fight former heroes and villains who are now zombies" is followed six sentences later by...
"the events of the What If...? episode "What If... Zombies?!", a group of survivors must fight former heroes and villains who are now zombies", which is followed seven sentences later by...
"The series is a continuation of the zombie-infested alternate timeline that was introduced in the What If...? episode "What If... Zombies?!".

To my eye, the solution is deletion of the redundant text, including excess headers such as "Premise", until such time as additional detail warrants their reintroduction. PRRfan (talk) 19:03, 31 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

These are the sorts of details that are expected to be repeated in a TV article, no matter the size. There should be a premise section giving a brief overview of the series' events, there should be details on the series' events in the production section, and the lead should give a summary of the article's key details. - adamstom97 (talk) 01:43, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
