With Jessie scheduled to leave Netflix (at least in the U.S.) on November 15 ([1]), I've decided to check the credits on each episode, mainly writing, directing, and guest starring ones. Since I'm only going thru the beginning and ending of each episode, it will take more time to check absences, so will hold off on that (and perhaps leave it to another editor - pinging Nyuszika7H, you have Netflix, right?). Amaury, I recall you've had issues about how the writing and directing credits were shown and not using the "&" or the story/teleplay when credited as such, but I'm deciding to restore that notation to the credits since you've let up on that after many challenges from some other TV project editors (AlexTheWhovian and Favre1fan93, among them, I think).

@MPFitz1968: Correct. Display the credits exactly as they are displayed. I didn't really give up per se so much as that either way is the same thing, but if they're displayed that way, then... The only exception is part labels. Those should still be left out since the end result is one episode. (Originally two episodes merged for a single presentation.) Amaury (talk | contribs) 16:11, 2 November 2017 (UTC)
@MPFitz1968: Yep, I have Netflix, but I also have all the episodes downloaded, so I can check anytime. I might go through some shows eventually... And yeah, part labels don't need to be explicitly added because they may make the column too wide (especially for director), but a <hr /> should be used to separate them as we finally agreed at List of Bella and the Bulldogs episodes. nyuszika7h (talk) 16:16, 2 November 2017 (UTC)

Still in the process of revising the credits. I've come up to the Christmas crossover special in season 3 with Good Luck Charlie titled "Good Luck Jessie: NYC Christmas". Netflix has only the second half of that episode, the Jessie portion, with the credits reflecting that part. (I'm guessing Netflix had the first half when Good Luck Charlie was there - that show left in May.) I decided for the time being to list the credits from the Jessie half. The corresponding episode listing at List of Good Luck Charlie episodes appears to have the credits reflecting the first half of the special only. At this point, I don't know if having it that way is correct (will ping IJBall and Geraldo Perez for advice on that). I see the whole episode is available on Amazon (sold under Jessie only, not Good Luck Charlie) and the credits picture may be a little clearer there. MPFitz1968 (talk) 10:00, 7 November 2017 (UTC)

@MPFitz1968: We should still document what was on the original broadcast airing if at all possible. My memory at the time was that it was a combined episode with special combined opening and closing credits for that broadcast. NETFLIX is effectively a syndication outlet and they break these types of crossover and combined episodes apart for their purposes. Annoying when only half of something is all that they end up showing. Amazon and iTunes will have the correct content. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:54, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
@Geraldo Perez: I've restored the writing and directing credits for the episode in both show's LoE articles. Was curious about what edit altered it at GLC, and it was here. Perhaps they were going on the GLC half of the episode from Netflix (was not long after GLC left the streaming service), though I recall vaguely that Watch Disney had the show available but I have no idea about whether that episode was available unsplit at the time. Outside of that, it would be unusual for them to make a Christmas episode available in May. As for the guest star credits for the full episode, I'll have to check that sometime (as far as how they're sequenced). I'm hoping Watch Disney will have that episode available after Thanksgiving, but if not, I could buy it at Amazon. MPFitz1968 (talk) 16:26, 7 November 2017 (UTC)
@MPFitz1968: I bought the ep in iTunes after it aired basically to verify the credits. The only guest star credited was Richard Whiten as Jimmy Star for the Austin and Ally part. The end credits are combined but have separate columns for each of the shows non-starring cast and crew parts of the end credits. No special guest star credits in the end credit section.

Hey, Amaury – do you know if this is "officially" an episode of Henry Danger, or is it one episode each of Henry Danger and Game Shakers, like Disney Channel tends to do with its crossover episodes?... TIA. --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:45, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

@IJBall: I think just Henry Danger. Nothing listed for Game Shakers. Amaury (talk | contribs) 17:15, 8 November 2017 (UTC)

User infobox

You could use this instead of your current userbox to make it automatically handle DST changes ;)

Star Falls

I guess you can get started on a new Draft article for this show... --IJBall (contribstalk) 17:20, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

Weird – they never seem to say who will play either parent... So the parents won't be "main cast" but "recurring"?! --IJBall (contribstalk) 17:28, 13 November 2017 (UTC)

Amaury, I'm not sure if you've worked with {{Series overview}} tables more than I have, but I thought I'd give this a shot – Do you know of a way to list a "Segments" column after the "Episodes" column? (Logically, "Segments" should come after "Episodes".) I just tried this at List of Angelina Ballerina episodes, but all I could come up with was a table that listed "Segments" before "Episodes"... TIA. --IJBall (contribstalk) 03:29, 21 November 2017 (UTC)

@IJBall: I think I asked Nyuszika7H about this when I was working on List of The Loud House episodes, and it's basically not possible. Amaury (talk | contribs) 04:01, 21 November 2017 (UTC)
Yeah, I don't think it's possible unless we modify the template. Not sure if it should be a |segments= parameter or something more generic. nyuszika7h (talk) 10:56, 3 December 2017 (UTC)

Amaury, could you and your talk page watchers please keep an extra eye on this article? We've got an IP hopper who keeps removing sourced material from the article without moving it elsewhere. Thanks. --IJBall (contribstalk) 15:27, 23 November 2017 (UTC)

@IJBall:  Done. Also, because I can read your mind () and knew you'd ask me at one point or another, I watched the Asher Angel article that was created a while back yesterday. Amaury (talk | contribs) 16:16, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
The IP's last edit at Breanna Yde was actually sort of OK. But really what needs to happen is that someone needs to write up a new 'Career' section at the article. I may get to that this weekend, if somebody else doesn't beat me to it... --IJBall (contribstalk) 16:22, 23 November 2017 (UTC)
@IJBall: Next time they revert, I think it's time we report them to either AIV or ANEW. Pinging Geraldo Perez and MPFitz1968 as well in case they didn't see this. Amaury (talk | contribs) 00:28, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
Okay, following their behavior on my talk page, I've gone ahead and reported them. Amaury (talk | contribs) 00:35, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
Page protection is a good outcome. It will allow time for a 'Career' section to be written without disruption from the IP. --IJBall (contribstalk) 01:05, 24 November 2017 (UTC)
@IJBall: Actually pending changes protection, but that also works. c: Amaury (talk | contribs) 01:15, 24 November 2017 (UTC)

I understand that Zendaya can't speak for the show. The problem is, Disney Channel did not say that the series ended production. CriticismEdits (talk) 10:01, 28 November 2017 (UTC)

We can't state anything on the matter without an official announcement from either the network itself or showrunner(s). In the absence of an official announcement, we assume that there will be more episodes produced; if one year goes by since the last new episode, then we can state that the show has ended.
