I've added this one to my watchlist. Just so you know... --IJBall (contribstalk) 15:31, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

Josie Totah

Please stop blindly reverting my edits, and contribute to the discussion at Talk:Champions (U.S. TV series). I don't know what you mean by telling me "actually discuss the matter to see if you can gain consensus"; I've already started the discussion, and you are simply reverting my edits without attempting to engage with it or achieve consensus. AJD (talk) 02:25, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

@Ajd: Please read WP:BRD. The responsibility is on you, not us. You've already started the discussion, which is great, but it doesn't give you the right to keep mindlessly reverting to your preferred version. No WP:CONSENSUS has yet formed, and per WP:STATUSQUO, the article must stay in the version prior to your controversial changes. Keep edit warring, and you will be reported at the appropriate venue.

I took the liberty of re-protecting it, for six months this time. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 18:56, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

@Ser Amantio di Nicolao: Many thanks. Amaury (talk | contribs) 18:59, 23 September 2018 (UTC)
Any time. Had it on my watchlist, too. --Ser Amantio di NicolaoChe dicono a Signa?Lo dicono a Signa. 18:59, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

This edit at List of The Thundermans episodes appears pretty innocent (just the IP fixing a typo), but the first two numbers in their address immediately got my attention as being in the range used by our old friend from two years ago (see User:Amaury/List of accounts and IPs used by Orchomen). I'm not quite sure whether we're still dealing with Orchomen (they were known for making innocent edits while they were pretty active with harassing us), and a check of contributions from the range going as wide as /17 over the past four months or so doesn't show a lot of overall activity, especially across Disney or Nickelodeon related articles (contributions from /17 range since May). What do you think? MPFitz1968 (talk) 21:00, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

@MPFitz1968: It's them all right. The IP geolocates to Orchomen's favorite place, the UAE. The edit itself is fine in this rare case, but obviously they haven't learned their lesson. I know BU Rob13 ranged blocked an IP earlier this year, and I think it was the range of that sock IP who made the edit on The Thundermans episode list, but I don't remember. If that is the range, maybe that range block has expired now? I don't remember how long it was for. Rob, can we get a block? Amaury (talk | contribs) 21:06, 5 September 2018 (UTC)
@MPFitz1968: Range blocks definitely need to be renewed after my recent reverts. I've posted over at User talk:BU Rob13#Orchomen. Making IJBall aware as well. Amaury (talk | contribs) 17:29, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
See, innocent edits that I overlooked - e.g., List of Liv and Maddie episodes [1] - though I'll admit my agreement with taking the contractions out in these episode summaries, which is not encyclopedic. Hopefully at some point, I can reword some of these summaries to eliminate these contractions (not just at the Liv and Maddie LoE). Still, the IP violated a block. MPFitz1968 (talk) 17:47, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
@MPFitz1968: I decided to revert them at The Thundermans episode list, but you're more than welcome to remake that edit. They don't deserve to take credit for anything. Amaury (talk | contribs) 17:53, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

Concerning your addition here: Did that episode air already? The air date shown, both in the article and at Zap2it, is August 26, which has already passed. MPFitz1968 (talk) 16:53, 6 September 2018 (UTC)

@MPFitz1968: I oversaw that. According to an earlier tweet from Nickandmore, Bunk'd returns on September 21 at 7:30 PM, before Raven's Home. Zap2it has updated the date for "Sleevemore 1." It'll probably get around to Bunk'd at some point. Amaury (talk | contribs) 16:59, 6 September 2018 (UTC)
@MPFitz1968: Zap2it has now fixed "Sleevemore 2," but still nothing on Bunk'd. lol A promo commercial confirms Bunk'd returns on September 21, but there's no way to connect that air date to that title. Amaury (talk | contribs) 08:05, 11 September 2018 (UTC)

@IJBall and Lbtocth: You guys might remember that I said quite a while ago that I was cleaning up this and Alex, Inc. in my sandbox (Alex. Inc sandbox). While the basics were done back in June, I finally got around to applying the finishing touches today on SUT. Normally, I would go ahead and make the changes to the live article, but since this isn't a kids series from the kids networks, I figured I'd see if you two had any comments or questions before I did that. Page here: User:Amaury/sandbox/Splitting Up Together. Amaury (talk | contribs) 02:07, 7 September 2018 (UTC)

Looks fine. However, I would not put season 2 episode table up yet as there no episode titles with a reliable source yet. I would hide the season 2 episode table under comments because from experience most veteran editors said it's not sufficient for an episode table with only the air dates (with a reliable source) on the table. — Lbtocthtalk 02:52, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
@Lbtocth and IJBall:  Done, with season two table hidden until episode titles are revealed. Any other questions/comments/concerns, feel free to ask, and I can easily answer them. Amaury (talk | contribs) 19:11, 16 September 2018 (UTC)

Alex & Me

I haven't really looked – Do you know if this has gotten any secondary coverage at all?... Somebody just tried to add it to List of films broadcast by Nickelodeon, but I really don't think it should be added there unless, 1) it gets some secondary coverage, and 2) somebody (preferably a secondary source) actually refers to it as a "film" or "movie". --IJBall (contribstalk) 03:08, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

OK, found stuff: [2], [3], [4], [5]. However, the first and last refs there make it pretty clear that this was produced by Warner Brothers and released "direct-to-video" back in June – thus, I'm not sure this qualifies for the List of films broadcast by Nickelodeon (the scope of which I'm trying to narrow to "Nickelodeon original films" only). Pinging Geraldo Perez on this, as I'd like his opinion as to whether he thinks Alex & Me is in the scope of that article if it was produced by Warner Brothers and was released direct-to-video first... --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:03, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
@IJBall: From the references and scope doesn't appear to belong. Geraldo Perez (talk) 16:17, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
OK, I've now done two things: 1) I've posted to Talk:List of films broadcast by Nickelodeon about Alex & Me, reiterating the sourcing I've found and that it is out of WP:SCOPE for that article. 2) I've finally put in a WP:RM – see Talk:List of films broadcast by Nickelodeon#Requested move 8 September 2018 – to move the article to List of Nickelodeon original films, in order to reflect the article's current scope. Pinging Geraldo Perez again so he can see this, and also MPFitz1968 as IIRC this article is on MPFitz1968's watchlist... --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:38, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
@IJBall: Sorry for not replying. I was going to after I finished rearranging and cleaning my room last night to basically say that, looking at its article, this wasn't something like Blurt! as it had already released back in June, so it didn't belong, but then my cell phone screen somehow ended up getting cracked in the process, and I wasn't in a good mood. I've now supported your move over there. Amaury (talk | contribs) 18:27, 8 September 2018 (UTC)

See: here... --IJBall (contribstalk) 18:36, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

So, did the Bunk'd finale already air?! (If so, it got no promotion that I ever saw!...). Anyway, if it did, I think we can put an "end date" on the show – souring said 16 episodes for season #3, and it's pretty clear that season #3 is the final season, so I don't think there's much point in not adding the end date... --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:55, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

@IJBall: It was promoted well. This is the promo, but despite the misleading YouTube title, note that the promo only called it a special. (It's similar to "Thundermans: Secret Revealed" which was promoted as a special, but not the season three finale.) Like with "We Didn't Start the Fire," it's a season finale at best, for now, though in the case of season two, even that didn't turn out to be true, because "The Great Escape" was the season two finale, though it didn't air with the regular cycle for some reason and caused continuity errors. Amaury (talk | contribs) 17:12, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
I've commented about this at Talk:Bunk'd – suffice it to say that I feel we can 100% put an end-date in for season #3 now, and should probably just go ahead and put in a series end-date as well... --IJBall (contribstalk) 17:14, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
Don't you mean Talk:List of Bunk'd episodes, IJBall? MPFitz1968 (talk) 17:18, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
Yeah, probably... that. --IJBall (contribstalk) 17:19, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
Probably. Amaury (talk | contribs) 17:26, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

Dunno if you're watching this one or not, but I know you've at least taken a look at it... Anyway, we have a potentially disruptive IPv6 at this article, that we may need some help with. Thanks. --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:08, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Still on my watchlist. Amaury (talk | contribs) 16:51, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

New show on Nick Jr., premiering(? at least on Nick U.S.) tomorrow. The only secondary sources I can find for it are: [6], [7] (primary source: [8] ). I don't have time today to put an article for this one together, but feel free to take a crack at it if you've got a little time... --IJBall (contribstalk) 19:53, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

@IJBall: You better bake me LOTS of cookies! Fall quarter starts today. Amaury (talk | contribs) 08:30, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
Is the series premiere date 2 July, or 4 July? You have both dates at various places in the article!... --IJBall (contribstalk) 12:44, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
It appears to be complicated. :x The article has July 2, but Zap2it shows July 4. Amaury (talk | contribs) 14:06, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
I'd go with the sources in the article, that say 2 July, then... IJBall (contribstalk) 14:47, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
The only problem is that we don't have an episode to tie it to, unless I missed something. Amaury (talk | contribs) 16:40, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
Ah, I see the problem... Still, in the infobox, I'd go with 2 July. --IJBall (contribstalk) 18:38, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

@IJBall: I don't really plan on maintaining this article. I just created it quickly to have it there. But US ratings for it are being posted. It'll just be a hit and miss since it's rated so low—the cable chart is ordered by the general 18–49—and Mitch Salem will usually not answer requests for daily series that don't hit the top 150, except on special occasions, like that Hunter Street S2 episode (1.1M) that was accidentally marked as a repeat by Nickelodeon, thereby not making the chart. Although you're free to try.

  • Monday Archived 2018-09-26 at the Wayback Machine It's in a comment from Mitch since it didn't make the chart. You'll want to archive this just to make sure an archive exists since comments disappear after about two weeks.
  • Tuesday Sub-150. No current request.
  • Wednesday

Amaury (talk | contribs) 01:02, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

I don't either, though I'll leave it on my watchlist. I was already leaning in the direction of removing the 'Ratings' section from this article, and I will probably go ahead and do that... — Preceding unsigned comment added by IJBall (talkcontribs) 01:09, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

Amaury, FTR, I found a lot more sourcing for this than when I first searched for this show before it's U.S. premiere, so I'm voting "keep" on this one. --IJBall (contribstalk) 02:43, 28 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi. When watching the commercials for the upcoming episodes of Raven's Home, I had noticed that Rondell Sheridan is reprising Victor Baxter for an upcoming episode that is titled "Just Call Me Vic." In the event any more alumni from That's So Raven appear in the show like Devon Carter and Dr. Sleevemore had appeared, we may have to start an alumni section in the characters section like what was done to the alumni that appeared in Girl Meets World and The Lion Guard. I'm just making a suggestion here. What do you think? --Rtkat3 (talk) 15:58, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Best to call it 'Notable guest stars' instead... --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:27, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Need more eyes on this draft article. We have a new editor (note: they also edited List of Gamer's Guide to Pretty Much Everything episodes and List of Mech-X4 episodes – do you recognize them Amaury?...) who has been adding a bunch of extraneous and basically unsourced stuff to the draft, that is pretty much WP:INDISCRIMINATE anyway. Pinging MPFitz1968 as well. --IJBall (contribstalk) 23:45, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

@IJBall: WIll keep an eye on it. And no idea. Likewise, I know you hate Andi Mack the Andi Mack article (), but you would you keep an eye on it, even if only shortly? Trent Garrett has apparently been upped to main for the third season, but there's nothing to confirm it. Amaury (talk | contribs) 23:54, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

Just noticed at WP:AN that MaranoFan was unblocked. I believe we have all had trouble with this editor, so this is a heads up that they're back... --IJBall (contribstalk) 17:45, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

I haven't done anything wrong since coming back, have I? I got a little scared by the tag. --NØ 17:54, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
@IJBall: Are you thinking of MarioFan? Amaury (talk | contribs) 18:31, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
We had trouble with them too... To be clear, the original post here was purely informational. --IJBall (contribstalk) 18:33, 25 September 2018 (UTC)
