The current air dates presented on the page are correct for both seasons, episodes of season 1 started airing every sunday at 3:00 p.m.
UTC, which is every monday at 12:00 a.m.
JST as can be seen on the
official website of the anime. Episodes of season 2 are currently airing every monday at 3:00 p.m. UTC, which is every tuesday at 12:00 a.m. JST as can also be seen on the
official website of the anime. At 11:59 p.m. or 23h59, it is still monday but at 12:00 a.m., 00h00 or 24h00 it is now tuesday and Wikipedia uses the local time zones of where the products/events are selling/occuring, so JST in that case.

Should we somehow indicate that lore and the history of the franchise were formally restarted after the release of the PAWORKS anime? I don't know if it was described in any sources, but the current plot directly contradicts the plot and style of the first trailers and manga (especially in terms of the amount of fanservice).

The order of the characters
As a suggestion, I believe the characters should be listed in the order in the
portal website, which is consistent and objective. The current order focus too much on the anime (and some manga), and is not general enough, especially lacking of the information of the video game. Uma Musume after all is a multimedia franchise. I will re-arrange the characters if no one disagrees. Thanks.

I think simply listing them by alphabetic order is better. Officially there isn't any rhyme or rhythm as to what order the characters are listed on the official website (supposedly it's in the order of the character ID number but there isn't anything confirming that). --

I think listing them by alphabetic order does not make sense. First, intuitively
Special Week should come first in the list, instead of
Admire Vega. Second, I do not know any other examples of putting characters in alphabetic order. Third, the order in the portal website IS official, regardless of what it represents.

@
Jnglmpera: Two weeks have passed, and I wonder whether you still oppose listing the characters by the order in the
portal website. Rearranging the order is not minor edit and I would like to reach a consensus before doing that. Thank you.

@
NinetyNineDragon: I think the best option is to follow how
ja:ウマ娘_プリティーダービー#ウマ娘 lists the characters, which is more or less in line with your suggestion... To quote the section's header: "記載順序はゲーム内のデフォルト設定に基づく(公式サイトのCHARACTERでも確認できる)。" which translates to "the order of listing is based on the in-game default settings (which can be checked on the official website's character page)," --

Although it is so much closer to my suggestion, I think if we follow "記載順序はゲーム内のデフォルト設定に基づく", it will focus too much on the game, which contradicts with one of the reasons why I suggest the change (the current order focus too much on the anime). Additionally, in the section's header, it is also mentioned "公式サイトのCHARACTERでも確認できる", which is equivalent to my suggestion: the characters listed in the order shown in the portal website.

Speaking from experience, the Japanese fanbase seems to more or less follow the order that I said before (which is why the JP wiki has the characters listed in that order), since that's how the characters are listed on the website, and apparently the characters are sorted that way in the game (which most of the fanbase plays). Unfortunately that's all that I can say. --

Character list may not be necessary
Even in the Japanese version, there is an argument that a list of characters is unnecessary for reasons such as the amount of text, difficulty in reading, and suitability as a dictionary.

I don't believe so. When people look up fictional works on Wikipedia (or any other sites such as TVTropes or any Fandom page) they also look up what kind of characters appear in said work, so if anything a character listing should be a prerequisite. --
