Dividing episodes

As many episodes have two stories; I think that each story should have its own row in the tables, as the segments and storylines would be more easier to read and discern.

For example:

UK Original Airdate	US Original Airdate	Episode	Three Special Steps	Summary	Notes
4 Apr 2009	4 Apr 2009	To Grandma With Love/Gold Flower	Step 1: Find the envelope Step 2: Put a stamp on the envelope Step 3: Put the envelope in the mailbox Step 1: Get yellow marigold seeds Step 2: Plant the seeds in dirt Step 3: Water the planted seeds	While Special Agent Oso is practicing climbing on Mount Aconcagua in Mendoza, Argentina, he receives a special assignment. A girl named Stacey loses a card she has made for Grandma's birthday, and it is up to Oso to help look for it and send it in the mail; Oso receives a special assignment while practicing walking in space. He helps a girl, Molly, plant marigold flowers in her garden. Can they complete the assignment before Molly's mother comes home from the store?	Titles reference From Russia with Love and Goldfinger.

should be redone as:

UK Original Airdate	US Original Airdate	Episode	Three Special Steps	Summary	Notes
4 Apr 2009	4 Apr 2009	To Grandma With Love	Step 1: Find the envelope Step 2: Put a stamp on the envelope Step 3: Put the envelope in the mailbox	While Special Agent Oso is practicing climbing on Mount Aconcagua in Mendoza, Argentina, he receives a special assignment.

Dr. Throw

The episode "Dr. Throw" has some obvious references to Rudy and guest starred Lou Holtz. This should probably be mentioned 69.243.155.153 (talk) 16:04, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Over-link

Linking to words that can be easily understood by most English speakers is discouraged as over-link. Additionally, if an internal link is included it should usually only link from the first occurrence of the word or concept (with some exceptions). Finally, if you add an internal link, ensure that it goes to a page that discusses the intended topic an not, for example, a disambiguation page or a page treating an unrelated topic that shares the same name.

Episode(s) after Thundersmall?

I do not know what is going on here, but I do not recall any credible news that there was an OSO episode(s) after Thundersmall. I see that this situation has already led to an edit war recently. Also, Oso became a true UNIQUE special agent in the Thundersmall episode ending. As proof, he gave the Paw Pilot to Buffo, so that another "new agent" can use it. To me, the edit about a "new episode(s)" is most likely to be vandalism. Rockies77 (talk) 07:37, 11 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Episodes need to be listed in order of air dates

This article needs a lot of cleanup – I have just converted the episodes lists into full templated episodes tables, and performed other cleanup, but much work still needs to be done.

The biggest issue right now is that episodes lists on Wikipedia must be listed in airing order, not in production (code) order. We include the production codes so that readers can figure out the "chronological" (production) order if they wish – but the episodes must be listed in airing order in episodes tables on Wikipedia. Otherwise the episode order is considered to be Original research.

An added complication here is that reordering episodes by air dates is going to necessitate figuring out which episode make up "season 1" and which episodes make up "season 2". Because, right now, that is muddled to the airing dates of the episodes, and as a non-viewer of this series I can't figure it out on my own.

But this all needs to be done at some point... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:47, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Another issue here is that the episodes tables include UK air dates, and I can't figure out why they are included – this was an American animated TV series, and it seems like the UK air dates are not justified to be included and should be removed from the episodes table. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 15:50, 19 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I'd support dropping foreign-to-this-show air dates from the table. Mention basics in broadcast section of main article is sufficient. Geraldo Perez (talk) 15:33, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't sound like this is as big as with Backstage, where its primary audience is in Canada, but its secondary audience in the US is also a big one, at least it was for the first season, so a separate column probably isn't necessary. The UK air dates can be mentioned in the Broadcast section, at least the season premiere and finale dates. Amaury (talk | contribs) 17:30, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

OK. I'll wait to see if there's additional comments. But if there are none, I'll remove the UK air dates column in the near future (provided I remember to do it!)... --IJBall (contribs • talk) 18:36, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Done – UK air dates removed. I'll attempt to come back another time and put the episodes in airing order. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 20:06, 23 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
