See The TV IV:Requested Articles to submit any requests you have.


Could we have a place for people to request information about shows that are not currently covered by the Wiki. There's been several occaisions where I've looked up a TV program on the wiki and haven't been able to find it, in most cases I've gone onto create the page but it would be nice to have a place to request more information for a programme. -- unsigned comment by Mazadillion

Asking for content will not cause it to magically spring forth. I'm skeptical that anybody will come forward and fulfill these requests. —Naddy 11:01, 2 April 2006 (EDT)
Actually, I think that it would be nice. Asking for content does not make it magically spring forth, but people that want to contribute will at least know what to contribute. For example, I am working on Simpsons episodes (ok, so I have only done 4) but since there are 17 seasons of them, it would be nice to know if someone wanted a specific episode. I have access to all of them, so I would just go down the list of requests. I really don't know how useful this would actually be because this is such a special situation, but I don't think we should discount the request page quite yet. —Key134 8:28, 3 April 2006 (EST)
I think it's a good idea. Currently, I think that stuff should be covered on the IV Drips. However, the whole concept of IV Drips have been put on the backburner, but you can certainly help flesh it out. Look at the Veronica Mars IV Drip for an example. --Wizardryo\talk 23:59, 3 April 2006 (EDT)
Yes, there is a comment section on IV Drips. Someone could leave a comment on a page and say "I was wondering about this episode" or something like that. Not sure if IV drips (which are project pages) should be linked to from the show pages, though. i'll look into an alternative method. --MateoP 13:08, 8 August 2006 (EDT)
I think a request page is a good idea, as it gives us an idea of what people are looking for and what we're sorely lacking. -- Lampbane 16:43, 8 August 2006 (EDT)
I've created the page, now we need a place where users, especially new users, would see it. -- Lampbane 23:33, 13 September 2006 (EDT)
  • I still think we should have a request page. It's worth a try, and if it doesn't work out, then we just let it drop. If it does work out though, then we've made some progress. -- Lampbane 21:56, 5 September 2006 (EDT)

Well, no one has objected, so go ahead and do it if you want. Probably would be best to place it under the "The TV IV" namespace (maybe The TV IV:Requested Articles?) --MateoP 22:02, 5 September 2006 (EDT)

The question is, how are people supposed to be able to find the damn thing? -- Lampbane 22:08, 5 September 2006 (EDT)
Ohh, good point. Well, I suppose adding it to a bullet point under "How You Can Help" on the main page would be a good place. --MateoP 13:31, 9 September 2006 (EDT)
