Talk:List of episodes of Power Rangers

message: There are alot of links to episodes that don't go anywhere. I undersatnd that somepeople want to delete them, but what you should do is write info about the episodes. That way people new to Power Rangers can learn about them easier.
While that sounds like a good idea, it will create a vast number of Wikipedia articles that a lot of people will have no interest in. There are other sites that have episode synopses, we don't need them here, except for perhaps a few more important episodes. Nice job with the list, though. -- Supermorff 23:46, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: There are far too many red links here for articles. As I plough my way through this mass of copyvios (text ripped-off from http://www.rovang.org/wg/eps.htm, and unsourced/unlicenced images) I'll remove these. CLW 16:23, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

message: It appears that the vast majority of the images used on this page (all of which were uploaded by Rick lay95, I think) have no source or copyright information, have been tagged as such for more than 7 days and as such are now candidates for speedy deletion. I'll give it a week or so, but after that I'll tag them all as CSDs, after which they will very rapidly vanish. If Rick lay95 or someone else can confirm their source and copyright information, this will keep them around. --Pak21 12:00, 6 December 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: * Thanks for the information; however, to be usable on Wikipedia, each image needs to be tagged with both its source and its copyright status (I presume most of these images are screenshots and can thus qualify for fair use, but it really needs someone familiar with the images to do this).

message: I am no longer using episode descriptions from rovang.org. However, I am spending most of my editing time fixing up the mess left by CLW, and in doing so, restoring, yet fixing, most of the old page. I am bring over the old stuff and making it new. (if that makes sense) If you feel that the episode descriptions need changeing, then rewrite them. Don't just be mad and delete them.
:I removed the descriptions while leaving everything else intact. It's not a matter of being "mad"; it's copyright infringement to have the descriptions in the article at all, since all contributions must be licensed under the GFDL. Evil saltine 06:17, 7 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: We don't have anything against the work you've done on this article. However, copyright rules are non-negotiable. There's nothing "wrong" with the descriptions themselves except that they're copied. They can't be here, not even for a moment. Evil saltine 06:29, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

text: It's not that I don't like it, it's that it violates Wikipedia policy. Someone may add original descriptions; that's what a Wiki is for after all. But no, if someone removes content because it violates policy, it's not their responsibility to replace it. It's nobody's "responsibility." Someone will do it if they want to.

replies: text: P.S. - If anyone's concerned by the above accusation that I made a "mess" of the article, please read through my account of the situation in the section above! Thanks, CLW 10:16, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

message: I've removed the "air dates" section a number of times, each time citing that this duplicates information provided elsewhere in the articles. It's been re-inserted each time, never citing any reason for this. I've removed it again - please see Wikipedia:Editing policy: 
:Reasons for removing bits of an article include:

thread_title:  Removal of "air dates" section 

message: I notice that this article is included in User:Gmaxwell/query fairusecount - it's in the top 20 Wikipedia articles by number of fair use images. It's believed that a limited number of fair use images can be used to illustrate an article, but the use of fair use images in this article goes far beyond that. Some fair use images are even used more than once in this article - :Image:PRLGlogo.jpg is used at least a dozen times, which surely contravenes copyright. My proposal is that a single fair use image should be used once - perhaps :Image:MMPRlogo.jpg? - and the others be removed. That way, we could be sure that the article would not be breaching copyright. Please share any thoughts... CLW 13:13, 17 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Remove 'em.  They aren't being used to provide any information, and Wikipedia:Fair use doesn't permit decorative use of non-free images. --Carnildo 04:38, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

text: That's completely irrelevant. What's being discussed here is whether or not the use of fair use images is justified in these cases under copyright law. CLW 14:17, 18 February 2006 (UTC)

text: Please read the top paragraph of this section. That explains it. Please read up on Wikipedia:Fair use. CLW 16:44, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
