Well, I hope this gives us the triple crown...
Sorry if I haven't been online that much this past week...owing much to trips to New York, Danbury and my library, not to mention a lot of maintenance on the new Wikia I've set up about this franchise. But can you tell me what more needs to be done? --Slgrandson (How's my egg-throwing coleslaw?) 02:16, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Oppose by Dweller
Many varied problems, esp. with language/translation/lack of translation/inconsistencies...
- "Since its premiere, TF1 has always been involved in the show's production" - awkward subject/object switching, could be simplified.
- "Moran Caouissin directed the first four episodes, before his role went to Eric Berthier for the rest of its run." its run? Subject is the director's role
- I don't know what this means: "The Bellflower Bunnies has aired on the TF! Jeunesse/TFOU block on its original station" What does "block" mean in this context? Is TF! a typo?
- Wikilink first uses of Germany and German, as well as North America, Netherlands, South Korea and, erm, Quebec (which seems not be located in any country)
- Ditto for Region 1 DVDs - in the image caption too for region 2
- "As of May 2008, only twelve of these episodes have been released in six separate volumes." What does this mean? Which episodes? What's a "volume"?
- "Original specials" what's so special about them?
- Moran Caouissin is definitely not "an animator from DuckTales the Movie: Treasure of the Lost Lamp;" unless he's a fictional character, which I doubt
- "Based on" isn't a very explanatory heading. I had to work out what was intended, which isn't ideal for featured material
- Presumably "Air date" refers to the date of the first airing of the episode?
- Your episode summaries should be labelled as such
- Why are there spaces before the !s in the "based on" titles? Why is only the first of them wikilinked?
- The FL criteria mention "images" (plural). Perhaps I'm pedantic, but I'd expect more than one in a FL.
- Why does "Based on" disappear for Season 2?
- Why no wikilinking in plot summaries?
- Why is "Dandelion's Vanishing Vegetable Garden" translated, but other titles are not?
- "But his submission, a water cycle, eventually gives him a lot of pressure from the villagers." I think "gives" is the wrong word
- "Poppy goes for some cabbage from a distant greenhouse." What do you mean by "goes for"?
- What does "Mistletoe soon takes the favour. " mean?
- What's a "hare girl"?
- "Mistletoe practises his father Bramble's beekeeping job" Maybe beekeeping is extremely prestigious in France, but in England while one might practise law or medicine, I don't think you'd use the verb for beekeeping
- "during the young Bellflowers' attraction" I think "attraction" is the wrong word
...I stopped there. Needs a rethink and definitely a copyedit. I suspect some of the problems have been caused by translation from French (I could be wrong) but a copyeditor can smooth these over. --Dweller (talk) 15:07, 6 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
