List of episodes[edit]

I'm intending to add a list of episodes once the draft article List of Jet Lag: The Game episodes is approved Radiantgoose420 (talk) 01:46, 19 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I've added in episode lists for all available series, and added references to the article. I've submitted it for re-evaluation for moving to the article namespace, and out of the draft namespace. Sgdw (talk) 17:31, 24 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Could/should crime spree be added as season 0 in the season list? They have mentioned it being effectively a pilot for Jet Lag as a whole. Spinwin2 (talk) 21:00, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would say not to add it onto the episode list as it lacks the Jet Lag branding and is always talked about as a separate thing to Jet Lag despite being a pilot. The mention of it in the background section suffices. BritishMew (talk) 22:14, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
This is a bit late (I only just realized this article finally got made) but I would argue the opposite and believe since it has officially been considered the pilot season for jet lag the game by the companion podcast (a few times now) I feel that it is worthy of adding it to a seasons list but just with a note saying that is has been retconned into being a jet lag season and isn’t branded as a jet lag season.

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: First of all, thank you @Spaghettifier: for rescuing this page from the draftspace! I actually watched the first season of Jet Lag not too long ago, so I'm glad to see it has an article now 🙂 No significant copyright violations according to Copyvio either (though, if you wanted to, I would paraphrase the quote "strong, frequent, reliable, or semi-reliable, public transportation," as it seems like the same information could be conveyed without using quote and shorter, but that's up to you). My only concern is where you got the information for your "Guests" section of the table? I don't doubt the information is true, but the citation provided just links to the Jet Lag Nebula channel without further information. When this is fixed, I have no problem with passing, cheers! Johnson524 19:11, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks @Johnson524: appreciate the review! Good point about the guest citation — I added a ref to the IMDb cast page which has dropdowns for each contestant and the episodes/dates in which they appeared. Spaghettifier (talk) 19:23, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
That should work! For future reference though, be careful using IMDb as a source, as it can sometimes be considered unreliable (see Wikipedia:Citing IMDb for more info on that). Cheers! Johnson524 19:31, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]


Half as Interesting[edit]

Currently, Half as Interesting is never mentioned on the page, despite Ben Doyle and Adam Chase first being writers for that channel. Should a little more information be dedicated towards that? HaapsaluYT (talk) 19:09, 12 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Countries and locales visited[edit]

Is it possible to add a map of where the series is filmed along with the table of countries similar to those found in articles relating to The Amazing Race? This is a travel show that is inspired by The Amazing Race anyways. 叶骅庆 (talk) 03:38, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Added a map and table in the style of the ones on the TAR page, thanks for the suggestion! DooplissForce (talk) 16:18, 16 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Au$tralia Section Link[edit]

It appears the section link for Season 10 in the Table of Contents appears as "Au/$tralia" for me, which breaks the link. Does anyone else see that and/or know how to fix it? Cerebral726 (talk) 13:02, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It appears fine for me, maybe ask at the Help desk. LouisOrr27 (talk) 13:51, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There is a bug report for this issue at phab:T365413 now, see Wikipedia:Help_desk#Dollar_sign_in_section_header for further discussion.-- Cerebral726 (talk) 15:56, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Episode Views[edit]

Was thinking of putting a count of views per episode chart somewhere. I would only include youtube. Anyone like the idea? Jd101991 (talk) 17:12, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

As views constantly change you would have to put an “as of date” 6 June 2024 for example. I don’t have nebula so I don’t know if it shows view numbers but I think a combined would be better if possible. SimplyLouis27 (talk) 17:29, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
100% Jd101991 (talk) 17:31, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'm doing a youtube table first, then nebula Jd101991 (talk) 17:38, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don’t think this would be a valuable addition. See WP:CRUFT. Cerebral726 (talk) 17:43, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Well we do so I'm going to do it Jd101991 (talk) 17:44, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There is not a consensus to add it in, a discussion must be had first. Do not edit war. Cerebral726 (talk) 18:41, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Everyone agrees and you delete EVERYTHING everyone wants. You don't even watch this and don't know anything Jd101991 (talk) 18:45, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
A table of view counts would not add anything significant to a reader's understanding of the topic. Can you find a WP:RS that reports the individual episode view counts as notable? That may have been more acceptable if we already had a table of individual episodes (which would be excessive for this show in all likelihood), but a standalone table is not WP:DUE. Cerebral726 (talk) 19:31, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
And one person said the country map and they did it without taken down Jd101991 (talk) 18:46, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There's no nebula view count on nebula Jd101991 (talk) 18:20, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They don’t add it. No point of showing views from only 1 platform. SimplyLouis27 (talk) 19:21, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Sounds good! if they ever do nebula in the future, we can discuss if we should add it. Jd101991 (talk) 19:23, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question About "The Getaway" Spinoff[edit]

Can someone please add the new spinoff coming this summer, The Getaway, to the article? I tried to add it when it got announced but then someone removed it! It upsets me because it is related to Jet Lag as a spinoff! It is not even on the Jet Lag wiki on Fandom either! Please? Thank you. 129.255.230.11 (talk) 17:58, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

When did you put this in so I can take a look. Also, what is your username? Jd101991 (talk) 18:23, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It was on April 11, 2024 during my doctor appointment. I just finished my dental cleaning. I am sorry because I have no username. 129.255.230.11 (talk) 20:28, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I’ll look when I get a chance Jd101991 (talk) 21:10, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You need to use a valid and reliable source if adding content. SimplyLouis27 (talk) 19:25, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
There are reliable sources, I’m just asking when he tried to write this Jd101991 (talk) 19:26, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I used a source when I added that Ben is the son of Larry Doyle but it got removed but the source is still there. My source is Ms. Jennifer Maas at Variety.com at the link https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/jet-lag-the-game-new-show-getaway-premiere-date-nebula-1235956944/ but I do not like adding sources because it is all true. I did not even realize I could add sources until late 2023. Sometimes, I try to add a source on other articles, but it gets removed! 129.255.230.11 (talk) 20:33, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

User is reverting edits[edit]

Can someone please talk to the user @Cerebral726 and tell them not to revert everyone's edits. They say I am the only one who's making edits, but they are in fact the only ones who are writing the wrong things. Jd101991 (talk) 18:44, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

They stated a valid reason, if you think you have a problem report it to either WP:ANI/I or WP:AN SimplyLouis27 (talk) 19:24, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also, please use edit summaries. SimplyLouis27 (talk) 19:25, 6 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
