I've cleaned up the obvious copyright infringement (it will need to be stricken from the history, still) and I plan to expand the page like the other Adventure Time articles I've worked on.-- Gen. Quon (Talk) 14:55, 24 October 2019 (UTC)
@ Alex 21: I just wanted to chat about the paraphrasing stuff. Copyright issues come up with close paraphrasing, which is defined as superficial modifications to an original string of text (e.g., "There was a really bright star" becomes "There was a very bright star"). The charge that these edits constitute "close paraphrasing" seems off. Take the first summary: The original logline is three sentences long. The wiki-summary is one. The original has a variety of creative phrases (e.g., "lovable little robot", "deadly space emergency", "one here to call"), of which only one is duplicated in the summary, but that duplication is noted in quotes w/ source. In regard to that point, some duplication/quoting is totally fine per Wikipedia's policies (fair use and all that jazz), just as long as its kept to a minimum. Finally, I can't find anywhere in the TV:MoS that says summaries can't be added before episodes air, but I surely could've missed that. Anyway, I just wanted to open a dialogue here.-- Gen.

|ShortSummary=
is for A short 100–200 word plot summary of the episode. Make summaries specific to that episode (as in, a description that would normally not be confused with another episode). Episode summaries must not be copied from other sources, as this violates WP:COPYRIGHT. Further guidance on plot summaries may be found at WP:TVPLOT.Emphasis on the A short 100– part.

Why do we need the "US viewers (millions)" part on the Episode list template? AT:DL is coming to a streaming service, not a TV channel. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pierce2000 ( talk • contribs) 02:39, 19 June 2020 (UTC)
Opening up a discussion here. Personally, I feel like considering this a "spin-off" or new series rather than a "season of specials" (e.g., something like this) is a little off. Canonically, it's the same cast, many of the same writers, and the same showrunner. It was produced by the same studio, etc. It reminds me of the many "Christmas specials" or "reunions" that often air x years after a show has officially wrapped. That said, Steven Universe Future has its own page as a series. IDK.-- Gen. Quon (Talk) 16:04, 30 July 2020 (UTC)
Skadilane has repeatedly deleted content about Y5 being nonbinary from the article, and has claimed that they are Aria Clemens (the crew member cited in the passage). This raises not only questions about WP:COI, but also about whether or not this user is impersonating said crew member, as they have provided no compelling proof of their identity. The account was only created a few days ago, and so far their only edits have been on this page, so I'm also wondering about WP:SPA concerns.

Thanks, guys! My original tweet was just in reference to the fact that the ATDL crew has 5 people on it who changed their names (all for various reasons) and how special that character decision was for us. People took it out of context to mean I was confirming Y5 as non-binary. I really appreciate you all helping me out here and removing my quote!--Aria (Skadilane)
If I may, I would say that "Y5 discovering herself" is a very general case, it's not that adequate to say it's because that she's considered a LGBTQ. Therefore, I didn't translate that part into Chinese, because I really doubt the necessity of mentioning that in a LGBTQ paragraph. - George6VI ( talk) 01:56, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

There are many things to describe characters in "BMO," but there is basically none for those in "Obsidian." I think there should be a consistent format for all of these episodes' side characters. - George6VI ( talk) 01:58, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
Is Miki Brewster really the supervising director of all four episodes? I only saw her name in the credits of "BMO" but not that in another two episodes so far, or did I miss anything? Because I am not so sure about Miki Brewster's role in the show and I don't see any source about this; besides, how come that she, a person that we probably didn't hear of before, becomes the superior of Adam Muto? - George6VI ( talk) 17:05, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
In "Together Again," Corinne Kempa is listed in the credits. Life only appeared in Season 6 shorts, and the article said she was voiced by Hynden Walch. I can watch AT and Distant Lands on HBO Go, where credits are fully listed in respective episodes, but is there a site for such shorts? The ones uploaded by CN in YouTube don't seem to credit Hynden Walch, and I don't know what source can be used here. - George6VI ( talk) 08:49, 17 June 2021 (UTC)
I noticed that the infobox has changed, and in it, Pen Ward is listed as the creator. Does that still stand? I mean, Pen is the creator of Adventure Time, but now he may have a minor role of the show now, and if there is a creator of Distant Lands, I think that should be Adam Muto, but I am not so sure about that. - George6VI ( talk) 02:47, 4 September 2021 (UTC)
