The summaries
editHowdy. A few matters to bring up.
- I've added edit summaries with a temporary source, and in the process of doing so, hidden in the table I found extensive plot summaries - good and accurate, but unsourced, and obviously from a much older version with links that lead to topics that are now redirects. I've gone through the page's history and the summaries were there from the beginning, when this page was created. Should we find how to incorporate some of it?
- If we can't decide if the old content should be reworked and re-added, in a second issue, it would be ideal to replace IMDB, which I've only included to give evidence that my summaries aren't copyright violations. Are TV.com guides more reliable, as in overseen by an editor, than IMDB? Also unsure on epguides.com. Will do some research on my own, but I'd prefer to abide by a prior consensus, as I'm sure the matter has come up.
- Finally, I added rows into the table using hard code for the summaries, but it would be better to use code specific to these tables. When I have the patience for that, I will try and contact the editor who built the original table, if I can find them through the deleted old pages. Otherwise, if I can't find help on the 2016 MacGyver page, help here would be great. Thank you. 24.234.234.21 (talk) 13:18, 29 March 2018 (UTC)
