I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of CBS All Access's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

This discussion is instigated per WP:BRD.
I object to the changes made by @ Dan Harkless:, as it is too wordy and feels like something PR would use. I feel that this takes the letter of Wikipedia:Short description (which is marked as information and not a guideline per se) too literally ( see talk page). Per your principle the Netflix shortdesc must be "Internet media streaming and video on demand service featuring acquired series and original content, e.g. Stranger Things". Besides this so-called "information" there is no real guideline on how this is to be used. ViperSnake151 Talk 23:03, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
The short description should focus on distinguishing the subject from similar ones rather than precisely defining it.
Is this service available in any other languages other than English or is that just for the U.S.? Do they have shows in French in Canada? --

As we approach the March 4 rebranding/relaunch of CBS All Access as Paramount+, we're see more and more over-eager editors (some are the same people) making changes to this article. Paramount+ has been reverted as an article at least once, and probably will be again before the launch.
We probably need to decide whether or not we'll rename/move this article to Paramount+, or make this one about a defunct service, and create a new article for P+. There is no one method recommend on Wikipedia, and this is usually done on a case by case basis.
I can see reasons for doing each option, but the community needs to make a decision one way or another, preferably before March 4. Thanks. BilCat ( talk) 23:17, 21 January 2021 (UTC)

All the current subscriber numbers that have been released is CBS All Access and Showtime Streaming combined.

I came to this article after hearing mention of Paramount+ and wondering what it is. Perhaps I'm in the minority here but having looked through the article I'm still none the wiser as to what Paramount+ is. The opening sentence describes it as a "subscription video on-demand over-the-top streaming service". That doesn't mean anything to me so I just wanted to check the article isn't using too much technical jargon. It seems to be some kind of web-based TV service, but how that service is accessed is not made clear in the article. Grand Dizzy ( talk) 17:56, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
I believe that this article has a misunderstanding about the availability of the Paramount+ service in the Caribbean, in terms of launch date as well as covered countries. This is likely due to the relative imprecision of the 'Caribbean' descriptor, and perhaps some ambiguity in the international launch dates expressed by Paramount on various occasions and/or outlets.
Launch Date for the Caribbean:
Country Coverage for the Caribbean:
[On a personal note, the current arrangement excludes various countries normally considered to be within the Caribbean, in particular its Anglo/Creole cultural sphere, such as Guyana and Jamaica which both are founding members of major Caribbean institution CARICOM. {As a Guyanese, I can attest that Paramount+ is not yet available in Guyana, whether via the website (paramountplus.com) or otherwise.} Although the Caribbean will hopefully soon have a fully fledged homegrown service to showcase its own films & series, of course international services are always most welcome too. Indeed, many other popular 'Western' services such as Amazon Prime Video, Disney+, HBO Max & Netflix are available {barring any embargoes} within the entire broad region; so, Paramount+'s relatively limited coverage here was rather unexpected. Oh well, I've already expressed my concerns in greater detail elsewhere {e.g., this post on the r/ParamountPlus reddit}, so won't repeat all that. ;-)]
In summary, if there's sufficient community agreement with the above discussion, then this article's table of covered countries/regions {in the 'Launch' section} should ideally be amended to reflect the current situation in the Caribbean. In addition, the related sentence clause just above that table {viz., "[…] followed by the announcement that the streamer will also expand into the Caribbean also due in the end of the year, […]"} should be likewise adjusted.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Procedural early close as the wrong venue, going along with Showtime (TV network)#Requested move 20 May 2023. This one doesn't quite have WP:SNOW going for it, but the procedural concerns are enough where an early close is warranted in my opinion. If you want this move to happen without a merge, I would recommend starting a new RM as opposed to reopening this one, though I wouldn't object to undoing this close – if you want a merge, follow the instructions at Wikipedia:Proposed article mergers.

Discovery would be interested in merge its streaming platform, Max, with Paramount Global's streaming service, Paramount+. This, along with the imminent sale of BET Networks and the merger with Skydance Media, makes for quite interesting news.
