Who are you to revert my recent edits to that guy about the Nickelodeon show My Life as a Teenage Robot? -_- 68.197.237.168 ( talk) 10:32, 2 August 2018 (UTC)
Regarding this, has Willow been in enough episodes to be "recurring" yet? I haven't seen every S3 episode yet, but I've only seen her in two so far... -- IJBall ( contribs • talk) 18:57, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
Have either Belissa or Viking Guy shown up in season #3 yet? -- IJBall ( contribs • talk) 19:23, 9 August 2018 (UTC)
You got the writer's credit wrong. C.L. did not adapt the story to English. Check the show's credits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 166.77.3.3 ( talk) 20:43, 3 August 2018 (UTC)
Greetings and felicitations. I noticed that you reverted my edit to Liv and Maddie. I actually made two changes in that edit. If you please, I'd like to reinstate the spelling correction of "vice-principal" to "vice principal" (in part in accordance with MOS:ENGVAR, since in my experience American English rarely hyphenates "vice [title]"). As for the major change I made, I feel that "This prompts the rest of the Rooneys, except Pete who remains in Wisconsin to continue his coaching job, to move to Malibu, California, to take up residence with Karen's younger sister, Dena, and her daughter, Ruby, where the series' fourth season takes place." puts the explanatory phrase too far from the part of the sentence (Malibu) that it is explaining. Can you see a better way to phrase this? — DocWatson42 ( talk) 06:54, 4 August 2018 (UTC)
This IP's edits at Big City Greens are fully disruptive at this point – many warnings about it already, and they persist. If they do it again, I advise reporting to WP:AIV – I just gave them another final warning. -- IJBall ( contribs • talk) 02:51, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
Would you so kindly fix some edits on The Fairly OddParents? There are a handful of errors saying that the show ended already. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1009:b040:b09b:dc61:679c:a09c:2110 ( talk) 19:35, August 7, 2018 (UTC)
Not long after semiprotection ended there (yesterday), IPs were back at it again, changing the end date back to "present" and saying the series is not over. First, an IP does this, which I revert, but then that IP restores their . Then another IP reverts them here. And then comes yet another IP to restore "present" on the end date here, which I revert. I remember when IPs were persistently changing "present" to July 26, 2017 before we could change it to that date per guideline. This is probably gonna turn into a perpetual edit war, even between IPs. The guideline is clear on us indicating the series is over - that is, unless a source comes along and says the series has been renewed by Nickelodeon or picked up by another network (either of which looks unlikely). Taking this back to WP:RPP is looking more likely with every IP edit that comes along doing this. MPFitz1968 ( talk) 14:24, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
I'm just letting you know that I've reverted your changes to the column widths of the episode table headers at List of Jessie episodes as they were fundamentally flawed. Column widths have to be set to at least the width of the text in the column, otherwise they mean nothing. If the column width is set too low, the text will force the column to be as wide as the text needs regardless of the setting. For example, if the width of the "overall" column is set to "1" and the text is 5% wide, the column width will be forced to 5%. For "overall", "season" and "airdate" the minimum widths are 5, 6 and 14, a total of 25%. Setting them to 1, 1, and 10 (12%) is pointless as the columns will actually be 25% as that is what the text requires. There were problems with other columns as well. Also, the width of all columns has to add up to 100% or whatever "total_width" is set to. Your column widths added up to only 85%. This fortunately allowed the columns to expand to at least 98% but this is still deceptive. While it looks OK on some resolutions, some resolutions show out of sync columns. -- AussieLegend ( ✉) 08:19, 9 August 2018 (UTC)

I just checked again, and yeah – my Disney Now app is only showing three episodes (total!) available for this (I think it's 1 from season 1, and 2 from season 2). I checked other shows in Disney XD section of the app and it was a similar story – just 1 or 2 episodes available for watching... Are you accessing the entire library of episodes through the website, or through the Disney Now app? And, if the latter, who's your cable provider?... -- IJBall ( contribs • talk) 15:53, 12 August 2018 (UTC)

IJBall: Semi-related, but I can't believe how much
WP:COPYVIO there is at
List of Lab Rats episodes and that it's been there all this time. I am glad I'm cleaning this up again when I'm more experienced as the first time I went through was a long time ago and I wasn't as experienced and mostly cleaned up grammar in the summaries without realizing they were already
WP:COPYVIO. Most of the changes I made involved simplicity by changing things like "Adam, Bree, Chase, and Leo" to "the Lab Rats and Leo," with Leo being included in "Lab Rats" in later summaries when he got bionics. Just look at summaries like "Commando App" and "Leo's Jam" and then click on the respective episodes
here on The Futon Critic and look at their summaries. The summaries are either virtually verbatim or so closely worded that it makes no difference. There is going to be a lot of summaries removed once I'm done.

As I was going thru checking those, and seeing you revert that IP, I did notice at least a couple of names among the guest stars who certainly are documented with articles in Wikipedia but are not linked at all. Brittany Murphy and Dick Van Patten immediately came to mind. Oh, on the Dick Van Patten one, I also noticed the typo in the season 4 premiere's guest star listing for "You Can Go Home Again" ( [1]), and I recall you have BMW on DVD; may be a good time to check if Van Patten is listed (particularly, if his name is spelled correctly).

Hey, any chance you can "proof" this edit versus the credits? Thanks. -- IJBall ( contribs • talk) 23:58, 15 August 2018 (UTC)

You have this on your watchlist, right? Appears IPs are adding info about future season 4 episodes without any source (or improperly using the same source that backs the "Oh My Santa" episode in that list). If this keeps up, semiprotection will be necessary, but if you could watch this article for a while, I'd appreciate it. Also pinging IJBall and Geraldo Perez.

I've just seen some promos for Nickelodeon in September, and they make no mention of "new" episodes of Game Shakers. OTOH, they do mention new episodes of
I Am Frankie,
Knight Squad, and
Henry Danger. I have no idea what's going on here, but I'm starting to wonder if Nick is just going to
burn off the final season ofGame Shakers on TeenNICK in the middle of Fall or something...
