Links in albums

There are problems with several of the links in the Albums section. They all point to The Wonderful World of Auto-Tainment!, Both two saved you King George and the Ducky? --Jeremy Butler 14:07, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Unfortunately, it looks as though these songs do not have their own articles, nor are they mentioned in the target article. Auto-Tainment is a sing-along episode which must feature these songs. Bob the Wikipedian, the Tree of Life WikiDragon (talk) 01:50, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protection

Let me know if anyone objects to the semi-protection. There has been a lot of recent vandalism from a variety of IPs. EdJohnston (talk) 01:35, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wow. Talk about speedy action-- Apparently the ARV report got the message to the right person! Thanks, Ed! Bob the Wikipedian, the Tree of Life WikiDragon (talk) 01:46, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heroes of the Bible

I've found no record of Heroes Volumes 4 or 5 (I'd buy them if I could find them)... Can anyone verify their existence? Thanks Kristamaranatha (talk) 17:58, 28 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Answer

There is no such thing as Heroes of the Bible Volumes 4 or 5, that was just somebody's false infomation. Bigidea would have annouced that there was a "Heroes of the Bible" Volumes 4 or 5. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.64.178 (talk) 00:49, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The Simpsons.

Someone read the cultural references section, and tell me that Simpsons part makes sense! Cause I have no clue what it is suppose to mean. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.173.81.213 (talk) 14:44, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I admit I too think it makes no sense also, becuase I'm a Christian I hate the Simpsons, any way, since the page is blocked, you'll have to have an account to delete that information. God bless!

Merger of episodes

Nearly all episode articles are filled with plot and trivial information, and no production and reception. Some (maybe all) episodes were tagged for lack of quality and notability last year, but many of these tags have been removed without improvements to the articles. I do realize that some reviews exist for several episodes and that thus notability could be claimed, but none of this changes that the articles are nothing more than plot and data dumps and should be stubbified. When this is done (the stubbification), the articles may as well be merged into a new List of VeggieTales episodes, with no prejudice against recreation if someone actually wants to improve them. Are there any volunteers to "save" the articles through improvement (check any episode article at Wikipedia:GA#Television_episodes to get an idea)? I'd merge the ep articles in a few weeks otherwise. – sgeureka ^t•c 22:40, 6 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think your proposal to merge the episodes in a single List of VeggieTales episodes sounds like a good solution. — CactusWriter | ^needles 16:30, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- I disagree. There's a lot of content about each episode in most pages and I think they are fine separated as they are now. NeonFire (talk) 20:22, 17 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Dear Sgeureka

That is a nice idea to make a "List of VeggieTales episodes", in fact, I really made one for the sake of the episodes. But I did not name it "List of VeggieTales episodes", but "List of VeggieTales Media" see for yourself: List of VeggieTales Media

P.S. Ask CactusWriter | ^needles to please edit and fill the page with the VeggieTales episodes.

Protected False infomation

Dear CactusWriter, I would like to tell you that the VeggieTales page is locked and I (because I'm not user) can't edit it, so somebody added false content and I can't delete it! Are you able to delete it for me? the false content is located on "other media" and this is the false content:

The Ballad of Little Joe 18th Anniversary Collector's Edition (2008)
A Snoodle's Tale Exclusive Special Edition (2008)
An Easter Carol 20th Anniversary Collector's Edition (2008)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.64.178 (talk) 00:49, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The page was placed under protection because of the recent persistent removal of references and the substitution for misinformation. Some things were obviously missed when we tried to revert the page back. Thank you for pointing out those erroneous entries (Those 18th and 20th anniversary editions are ridiculously impossible. Well spotted.) The 3 entries have been removed. — CactusWriter | ^needles 08:26, 21 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you CactusWriter, I really appreciate it.

Abe and the Amazing Promise

The new upcominging VeggieTales video "Abe and the Amazing Promise" needs a page, so I strongly reccommend Wikipedia to make a page for "Abe and the Amazing Promise".—Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.64.178 (talk) 00:49, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia guidelines are against the creation of any article about future films or upcoming television shows. See Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. Films, TV shows and others should wait until they have been released to the public before anything is written -- this allows proper independent referencing of the material. There is nothing so critically important about a new episode that it cannot wait until then. — CactusWriter | ^needles 09:23, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

But it is true! I'm not lying that there's going to be an "Abe and the Amazing Promise", check Bigidea.com press products at the top of the home page, then press VeggieTales, you'll see it up there Wikipedia! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.64.178 (talk) 14:53, 9 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize if you felt that I accused you of lying. That was not my intention and I certainly don't believe that you are. You are correct that Bigidea is advertising a new episode to be seen in February. However, descriptions about upcoming or unreleased films or TV shows are not included because there are many circumstances which might prevent them from occurring. As such, Wikipedia uses the policy about WP:Crystal. Until the new VegieTales episode is actually seen by the public, any information about it is purely speculative -- meaning it cannot be verified. That means until someone actually views the episode it cannot be confirmed. When the new episode is released in February, then you should include a description in the article. Once again, I'm sorry for any misunderstanding. — CactusWriter | ^needles 07:48, 10 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, the name of the episode has been included in the episodes list. — CactusWriter | ^needles 10:18, 11 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

So, do you think you (or Wikipedia) will create the page when it comes out, CactusWriter? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.111.64.178 (talk) 00:33, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

After the program is released to the public, it would be great if you could add a description of the show to WP, using the format of the other shows. — CactusWriter | ^needles 09:04, 15 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Description? that's not what I meant, I meant a whole page for that video.

Like every other video, for this one to get its own article, the video itself (and not just VeggieTales in general) would have to receive significant independent coverage by the national/international media. You can read more about the standards at this page. WhatamIdoing (talk) 00:49, 16 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
