I created List of Daredevil episodes following the Manual of Style for television, which suggests that after a show has a second season, it is advisable to create a List of episodes article. However, User:Favre1fan93 reverted these changes, arguing that the article is not necessary yet. I've read the discussion people had before, with some saying that because the articles for seasons ( Daredevil (season 1) and Daredevil (season 2)) existed before, a list of episodes is not necessary. It is true that those articles contain enough information to justify their existence. Regardless of that, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and encyclopedias have conventions. The convention of this encyclopedia is to create a separate article for episodes after a TV show has more than one season. Those articles are useful because, only in one page, a comprehensive look at the series is available.
I don't see why some people are opposing so bullheadedly to this. The vast majority of Wikipedia articles about TV series that have more than one season have a list of episodes. I had never seen such a discussion before. There's no sensible reason not to have said article in this case, so I am reverting the changes to keep List of Daredevil episodes. -- Gonzalogallard ( talk) 20:16, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
The convention of this encyclopedia is to create a separate article for episodes after a TV show has more than one season.Just because other articles have LoEs, doesn't necessarily mean this series needs one. For a series with only a total of 26 episodes, just about the size of one "normal" broadcast series, there is no need, per WP:SIZE, to split off the episode tables from this article. The main reason the MOS says what it does is from a network mentality of 23 or so episodes a season, in which size of the article then becomes an issue, especially when the tables are not transcluded from season articles and still have the plot in the table (unlike these). There are not any additional items or material being added on the proposed LoE article you are creating, beyond the fact that other series do that, so since this series has more than one season, it should too. - Favre1fan93 ( talk) 20:38, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
Those articles are useful because, only in one page, a comprehensive look at the series is available.That is happening here, and you aren't changing or enhancing it by moving it to a new article. - Favre1fan93 ( talk) 20:41, 15 August 2016 (UTC)
The " DVD and Blu-ray" table mistakenly mixed release dates so I removed "and Blu-ray" but Adamstom.97 restored the table claiming "the idea is that there are equivalent Blu-ray regions to go with these dates. Redundant to repeat the information in the same table". However, you simply cannot do this. DVD regions (1-6) and Blu-ray regions (A, B & C) cover geographically different areas. For example, the United States and Canada are in both DVD region 1 and Blu-ray region A while Mexico is in DVD Region 4 but Blu-ray region A. Australia, like Mexico, is in DVD region 4, but Blu-ray region B. All of the African continent is in Blu-ray region B but different parts are in DVD regions 2 & 5. When listing release dates you must list release dates for the different regions in the correct cells, even if that requires duplication. You can't combine cells because that is, at best, misleading to readers. -- AussieLegend ( ✉) 22:43, 3 September 2017 (UTC)
