Degrassi: The Next Generation (season 3)

[edit]

Continuing my drive to get the season articles of Degrassi: The Next Generation to FL status, here is season 3, and season 4 (see nomination entry above). I think this article is on par with other season articles that have been promoted, and meets all criterea, even if I can't spell it! All comments will addressed. Thanks. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 07:56, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Hello again Matthew, some points that struck me...
  • "Degrassi: The Next Generation Season 3" in the infobox vs "Degrassi: The Next Generation (season 3) " (and this probably applies to all seasons) - not sure about the discrepancy in titling.  Not done The Simpsons season and Lost season FLs do this, and the Smallville season GAs. I guess it could be changed.
  • "The third season had twenty actors recieve star billing, with fifteen of those returning from season two." - link season two, and merge this single sentence paragraph into the next. Oh, and what does "star billing" mean if 20 folks got it?
    • I wikilinked star billing to Billing (film). Basically, it's those who are regular cast members and are featured in the opening title sequence, as opposed to those who are recurring and don't appear in the title sequence and whose names appear either after the opening sequence is over and the episode title comes up (when it lists producers, writers and director), or at the end of the episode in the closing credits.
  • " Episodes fourteen and fifteen, the "banned" episodes, " - I may have missed it but this needs further explanation I think.
    • See the third paragraph in ==Reception==
  • I'll properly review the episode synopses shortly. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:55, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 21:42, 18 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • More...
    • " when Stohn said it was indeed him" - confirmed it was him?  Done
    • "overall.[8] and received " punc error?  Done
    • The episode template thing is a bit weird - the column headings are variously aligned and then the content of the columns are generally differently aligned (if you get me....) so Episode# heading is left aligned while the content of the column is centrally aligned... and so on. Is this intentional?
      • I don't know why this is. It only appears to be a problem with IE, not Firefox, and the headers even have "style="text-align: center;"". I don't know how else to format it so they are centered in IE. As for the content of the columns, that all looks to be aligned correctly to me in both browsers. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 01:40, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • That's about it for this round! The Rambling Man (talk) 09:18, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • ...garnered a nomination for Stephen Stanley for "Outstanding Achievement in Production Design - Television Series"[11] "Pride" - seems to be missing a period or comma after the ref. Collectonian (talk) 05:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • ...and "Best Direction in a Children's or Youths' Program or Series" at the Gemini Awards. The series also won the Gemini for "Best Children's or Youth Fiction Program or Series". - source? Collectonian (talk) 05:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Why repeat the DVD cover in the release section? Only needs to be shown once, and the one at the top would be the preferred one to keep. Also, I think release dates should be above the Set Details instead of below. Source for the DVD info? Collectonian (talk) 05:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Can those sources be added to the paragraph as well, just to be clearer. I'm not a fan of DVD tables of that format, but if its consistent with the other Degrassi season pages, okay. Collectonian (talk) 06:29, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Unfortunately, I can't find anything. I was hoping that while forums are usually not reliable sources, this one kind of is, as it has been confirmed in other reliable places that the show's exec producer is the one who posts under the "ExecProducer" name. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 06:18, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Probably very nit picky, but can the season box be made slightly wider so the 3 is on the first line, or slightly narrower so the second line has "Season 3" instead of just 3? It looks a little odd seeing the 3 by itself. :P Collectonian (talk) 05:43, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support - Excellent list. I just have two concerns:
  • You seem to explain this above, but the same images are very rarely used twice in one article. But I suppose this is not an overly pressing issue, if it is consistent with other episode list FLs.
  • Also, I agree with Collectonian: ...Erica Farrell and Heather Farrell for the opening episode, "Father Figure" and ...and Neil Hope returned to play Wheels in the seventh episode, "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" should be cited with {{cite episode}}.
