  1. WP:OVERLINK states not to link major geographic areas such as [[Canada]]
  2. US air date is valid, although it should be referenced
  3. Removing the future list of episodes that are commented-out is just plain stupid and waste of effort.
  4. Removal of referenced viewership numbers is just plain wrong.

The only valid things that this fixes is the addition of quotes around episode names and {{refimprove}} is not {{ref improve}}.

This editor has been known to remove referenced material and have a bias toward Canadian-only content in Canadian produced shows. The editor has also been blocked for this sort of behaviour and should stop. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:31, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, then I will add dates for every other country. 66.87.82.94 (talk) 18:33, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
That would be greatly appreciated! This is an encyclopedia and the more verifiable information it contains the better it is. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:35, 3 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
When and if the international dates are added, I think we only need the start dates for those countries, unless the series is at the top of the ratings there. Wikipedia is not a TV guide. See also Manual of Style/Television. Thanks! — Wyliepedia 14:06, 9 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Seems reasonable. Walter Görlitz (talk) 01:58, 10 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I moved the American dates to the ratings table. I kept the American ratings. Episode lists only include dates and audiences for the country of origin. I will add British airdates once the ratings are published. 66.87.81.16 (talk) 01:58, 21 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

U.S. information[edit]

I moved the U.S. series information (air dates, ratings) to the ratings table to unclutter the Episode list. I left the "alt date" section for the UK dates, but I also feel these could have their own section as well, if and only if their ratings are notable. If not, the episode table should only contain the Canadian information and the UK start date mentioned elsewhere. — Wyliepedia 14:00, 9 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Season's 22 episodes...[edit]

...are now reported as erroneous. According to this Facebook post (which I will not cite in the article), Season 5 will not split its 22 episodes and air 11 at a later date. According to that link, the other 11 will become Season 6 instead. For now, I think the article should stay as is until we can get a more reliable source. — Wyliepedia 08:39, 10 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Colour contrast problems[edit]

It seems that this article is using colours in the infobox which don't satisfy Wikipedia's accessibility guidelines. The contrast between the foreground colour and the background colour is low, which means that it may be difficult or impossible for people with visual impairments to read it.

To correct this problem, a group of editors have decided to remove support for invalid colours from Template:Infobox television season and other television season templates after 1 September 2015. If you would still like to use custom colours for the infobox and episode list in this article after that date, please ensure that the colours meet the WCAG AAA standard.

To test whether a colour combination is AAA-compliant you can use Snook's colour contrast tool. If your background colour is dark, then please test it against a foreground colour of "FFFFFF" (white). If it is light, please test it against a foreground colour of "000000" (black). The tool needs to say "YES" in the box for "WCAG 2 AAA Compliant" when you input the foreground and the background colour. You can generally make your colour compliant by adjusting the "Value (%)" fader in the middle box.

Please be sure to change the invalid colour in every place that it appears, including the infobox, the episode list, and the series overview table. If you have any questions about this, please ask on Template talk:Infobox television season. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 05:30, 2 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
