Okay, why all the back and forth about the pretty pretty colors?

I'm just dying to hear the arguments for and against here. - Jack Sebastian (talk) 06:59, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The pink colour is not precise and unappealing to the colour saturation, the yellow is precise to the text and far more contrasting. I'm done with it though, far too much stress for something so trivial. LLArrow (talk) 22:53, 27 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Glad that situation is now over. No need for such a discussion anymore. Alex|The|Whovian^? 16:21, 28 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I am curiousAlexTheWhovian. Is there an MOS guideline that helps determine what color scheme is to be used, or is it just let up to whimsy? I am concerned that people without great monitors or accessing via mobile networks will find a significant slowdown in loading because of all of the different colors. - Jack Sebastian (talk) 05:53, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

MOS:TV#Formatting may be helpful. Alex|The|Whovian^? 06:40, 29 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, Alex; that link was very helpful. As per WP:COLOR, I am a bit concerned that the colors do tend to look very similar to someone who might be colorblind (as determined by the use of a colorblindess simulator to view the page). I would suggest more of a primary or monochromatic appearance. In the alternative, we should find colors that are more distinguishable than others. - Jack Sebastian (talk) 20:28, 31 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"I'm done with it though, far too much stress for something so trivial", and yet you just reverted by trying to force your preferred version. What you're doing is disruptive and edit warring given you've been reverted by multiple editors. Drovethrughosts (talk) 00:18, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

LLArrow, one more revert and you will be reported. Callmemirela 🍁 {Talk} ♑ 21:23, 2 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Episode summaries here

Does anyone else see the seasons' episode summaries here? I do, which means they're not being transcluded and the lists here aren't simply basic episode lists (i.e. minus the summaries). — Wylie pedia 02:40, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

AlexTheWhovian is making changes to how episode list transclusion works, so it's probably that. —Joeyconnick (talk) 04:02, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, that is definitely why. All will be fixed once the bot goes through and changes the usage of {{Episode list/sublist}}. Quick summary: converting usage of {{Episode list/sublist}} from {{Episode list/sublist|Destination for transclusion}} to {{Episode list/sublist|Location of episode table}}. -- Alex^TW 04:11, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Gotcha, thanks. — Wylie pedia 04:18, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
