The CWverse Name.

Before I speak up about this I just wanted to let you all know that I am NOT in Support of the name "CWVerse" I am committed to calling it "Arrowverse" even though Arrow has ended.

However the subheading about when the name "CWverse" came out seems to be incorrect.

In 2019 before Crisis On Infinite Earths was aired the CW came out with a Comics come to life Sizzle Reel that had that name in it. https://comicbook.com/dc/news/dc-tv-sizzle-reel-the-cw-arrow-batwoman-legends-supergirl-flash-/

Now I don't know how reliable Comicbook.com is but if you look at when this article got uploaded it also has a date in July 19 2019.

Shouldn't we amend the subheading a bit to reflect that fact? Maxcardun (talk) 9:31, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

I need to actually read these articles closer. There is in fact a mention there but not putting down the 2019 date. Maxcardun (talk) 8:12, 9 July 2021 (UTC)

Naomi

While its been stated for years (during development and otherwise), we now have the director of Naomi stating that the series is a part of the Arrowverse. This can be read here. This article should reflect as much.--DisneyMetalhead (talk) 06:11, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Just to note that a TV director is pretty much a technical role in the US industry. They have zero story input and just execute what they are given. The article itself doesn't really explain why this is an Arrowverse show. Gonnym (talk) 08:44, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Image choice

The primary image in this article is so outdated. It is from the earliest seasons of episodes in the shared TV universe. Shouldn't we be looking for a better option? Furthermore, there was the "rebranding" that took place post-Arrow of "The CWverse" that occurred. Shouldn't that also be discussed in this article?--DisneyMetalhead (talk) 06:15, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If you have a suggestion for a better image, by all means present it. The name "CWverse" is already discussed in its own section. -- Alex_21_TALK 12:46, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

An image doesn't have to be current, but rather one that represents the topic at hand, and I'd say the current one does just that, given no newer promotional material like this has been released since. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:42, 28 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Serial Box shows

I think we should cut the section about upcoming Serial Box shows. There's been no news about that in nearly 3 years, and Serial Box doesn't even exist anymore. --Dsethlewis (talk) 22:16, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I agree.. Serial Box has a new name, so it technically still exists.. but they have no mention of the shows on their website anymore so it's safe to say the project did not happen. Spanneraol (talk) 22:29, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Done -- Alex_21_TALK 00:10, 15 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
