Season 3's debut month
Could they at least give us the month of season-3's debut, if it plans to air in this year? we're like down to just two months left in the year.184.186.4.209 (talk) 05:12, 6 November 2019 (UTC)
This is annoying
Can the user Gerald Perez stop undoing my edits, does he even watch the show at all? it seems like he just goes through all the wikipedias and undoing random edits that make sense for no GOOD reason. He doesn't even seem to do any research, all he does is give a quick glance at the source and go "nah" let's let fans of DuckTales go without clearly real info for longer. Honestly if i'm right, which i know i am, then i'm gonna be real mad at him. and before you check FutonCritic to make some rarded comeback to look smart, it's already wrong as it was announced that two episodes were premiering on April 4, not one. Ryan Jay (talk) 19:50, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- Ignoring WP:NPA, I did check the press release site, Zap2it and Futon Critic. The only information any of them have is the press release info stating April 4 start date and general info on season 3. Nothing about specific episode names, dates and titles other than the season start date and no title or episode description for that either. The blog posting added as a source did not state where he got the information and has ignored requests to tell where he got the info. Per verifiabiilty, which is policy, and WP:BURDEN which requires editors adding information to source it, I have removed the unsourced information. I have also made an attempt on my own to find a reference. Provide a reliable source reference that supports the specific information added. Eventually Zap2it and Futon critic will have the information, right now they don't. Geraldo Perez (talk) 20:14, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- Geraldo Perez i can't wait for you to be proved wrong, like most wikipedians are Ryan Jay (talk) 20:31, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- Huh? In what respect have I been wrong about Wikipedia policy about verifiability? That is the only issue here. I would welcome the information in the article if it can be properly sourced. Geraldo Perez (talk) 20:37, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
- Geraldo Perez i can't wait for you to be proved wrong, like most wikipedians are Ryan Jay (talk) 20:31, 13 March 2020 (UTC)
Ha, I was right Ryan Jay (talk) 23:58, 14 March 2020 (UTC)
Geraldo Perez Lol No response, can't even admit you were wrong Ryan Jay (talk) 17:07, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- See above comment of mine. See Wikipedia's policy about verifiability which was my only issue. Once references were given, which is all I required, the issue was resolved. Geraldo Perez (talk) 17:27, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
Seasons come and seasons go
should each season have it own page like Gravity falls dose? Fanoflionking 14:25, 25 March 2020 (UTC)
Production codes
I just noticed that two of the season 3 episodes are marked with the same production code (303), which can't be right, can it? Thing is, I don't know where to turn to check the proper production codes. Yes, it's a tiny thing. But, still. Jamie Eilat (talk) 15:13, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Jamie Eilat: There is a reference for the production codes in the column header, a Disney site. What is in the column is from that reference and for some reason the reference shows the duplicate code. Geraldo Perez (talk) 17:55, 11 April 2020 (UTC)
Missing Episodes
So 5 new episodes were confirmed by Frank Angones on Twitter. However, they do not appear on the list. Can somebody add them, please? LocalContributor281 (talk) 02:18, 17 October 2020 (UTC)
Season 3 production code reference is dubious
There are multiple issues with the source:
1. It has no "302", "305", "314", "324", or "325" codes.
2. It has two "303" codes and two "316" codes.
3. It lists "The Last Adventure!" as both "323" and "326" with nothing inbetween and despite not having listed "Let's Get Dangerous!" (the other multi-part episode in the season) as more than one production code.
Even if you assume the missing 314, 324, and 325 codes are because the page just isn't listing extra parts of episodes that start with other codes, that assumption would still be broken by The Last Adventure! being listed as both 323 and 326 as opposed to just 323 on its own, and it still wouldn't explain the 302, 303, 305, and 316 code issues. I'm not sure it makes sense to use that page as a reference at all, but at the very least I don't really understand why it is being trusted to list a 326 code (which makes no sense given that it would mean a three-part episode has four production codes) when it's already not being trusted in regard to the problems with 302, 303, 305, and 316. Alphius (talk) 07:14, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
For example, this article has already diverged from the source in that:
1. It lists "Quack Pack!" as 303, but not "Double-O-Duck in You Only Crash Twice!"
2. It lists "Double-O-Duck in You Only Crash Twice!" as 305 when that production code is missing from the source, with no apparent evidence provided as to why that number was picked as opposed to any of the other missing codes.
3. It lists "Let's Get Dangerous!" as both 313 and 314 even though 314 is missing from the source.
4. It lists "The Split Sword of Swanstantine!" as 316, but not "New Gods on the Block!"
5. It lists "New Gods on the Block!" as 317 when the source says 316.
6. It lists "The First Adventure!" as 318 when the source says 317.
7. It lists "The Fight for Castle McDuck!" as 319 when the source says 318.
8. It lists "How Santa Stole Christmas!" as 302 when the source says 319, with no apparent evidence provided as to why it would do this.
9. It lists "The Last Adventure!" as 323 to 326 even though 324 and 325 are missing from the source.
Given the discussion in the previous comment, it seems obvious that the source can't be entirely accurate (and thus possibly shouldn't be used at all), and given all of the discrepancies already existing between the source and the table, it doesn't make sense to treat one of the claims in the source which is almost self-evident in its wrongness - The Last Adventure! having a 326 production code - as definitely true. Alphius (talk) 07:35, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
- It seems like the only way it could even possibly be true would be if the episode does have the 326 code, but it doesn't have all four codes, with either 324 or 325 actually being something else that had a production code in the middle for some reason. But that seems unlikely, and regardless the way it's listed in the table now still wouldn't be accurate in that case, either (it would just be wrong for encompassing 324 or 325 rather than for including 326). Alphius (talk) 07:44, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
- It is the only source in the article that is cited for production codes. If any of the codes in the article conflict with what is in the reference, the article should be changed to conform to the reference, not the source thrown away because it doesn't conform to the unsourced deviating codes already in the article. If the source is determined to be inaccurate, we don't have a source for the production codes at all, other than a bunch of WP:OR assumptions, and they should be removed completely from the article. In the case of the last episode exactly two codes are shown 323 and 326. It is possible both were used by the production for different versions of the episode. 326 may be the one used for the full episode, 323 may be an alternative. We don't know and we have no better source. Geraldo Perez (talk) 16:49, 18 March 2021 (UTC)
