Why did I rename this? Because the Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Television/Episode_list_style_guide said this was the correct page title. Markkawika 11:38, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Why were the Region 4 DVD details removed from this page?
Move discussion
There is a proposed move of several episodes of The Wire that don't follow standard wikipedia naming conventions. More info and voting/discussion at WT:TV-NC#Proposed moves for episodes of The Wire. --Milo H Minderbinder 21:29, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- Just to make sure this is clear to everyone -- There is currently a massive dispute at Misplaced Pages:Naming conventions (television). As part of that dispute, a group of editors has taken it upon themselves to ignore existing objections, and work their way through Misplaced Pages, changing category after category to a different naming convention. The next target on their list is "The Wire", and they are planning on moving many articles. If you like the Wire categories the way that they currently are, please go to the "Proposed moves" poll, and say Oppose to try and stop this change. If, however, you like the idea of changing everything around, you should Support. --Elonka 23:14, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
- This massive dispute is currently 13-3 in favor of moving in compliance with the guideline. Elonka's objections have been heard, but are not sufficient to negate the application of the guideline. If anyone has any problem with the guideline or the move specifically, you are more than welcome to contribute to the discussion at WT:TV-NC. – Anþony talk 15:01, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, that would be 14...as nominator, my support is a given. Is it generally acceptable for the nominator to add an entry in the "voting" list? --Milo H Minderbinder 15:07, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
- Being nominator automatically means you support. But i don't think there's any reason not to add an entry in the voting list. Most people just don't bother i guess. --`/aksha 00:17, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
- The majority of people supporting the move, are the disruptive group of editors who are working their way through Misplaced Pages, ignoring valid objections. For awhile, they'd been moving pages and claiming, "See, no one's complaining." Then, once complaints started, they switched to, "Well, not many people are complaining." Then, more complaints came in, and they're now, "Too bad, we have more votes than you." This is a clear violation of Misplaced Pages:Consensus: "at times, a group of editors may be able to, through persistence, numbers, and organization, overwhelm well-meaning editors ... This is not a consensus.". --Elonka 03:19, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
