Talk:Extra (American TV program)

message: Hello, Please do not add unreferenced names as entries to the list of former employees in articles. Including this type of material in articles does not abide by current consensus and its inclusion is strongly discouraged in our policies and guidelines. The rationales are as follows:
#WP:NOT tells us, Wikipedia is "not an indiscriminate collection of information."  As that section describes, just because something is true, doesn't necessarily mean the info belongs in Wikipedia.  
#As per WP:V, we cannot include information in Wikipedia that is not verifiable and sourced. 
# WP:Source list tells us that lists included within articles (including people's names) are subject to the same need for references as any other information in the article. 
#Per WP:BLP, we have to be especially careful about including un-sourced info about living persons.
If you look at articles about companies in general, you will not find mention of previous employees, except in those cases where the employee was particularly notable.  Even then, the information is not presented just as a list of names, but is incorporated into the text itself (for example, when a company's article talks about the policies a previous CEO had, or when they mention the discovery/invention of a former engineer/researcher). If a preexisting article is already in the encyclopedia for the person you want to add to a list, it's generally regarded as sufficient to support their inclusion in list material in another article. cheers Deconstructhis (talk) 13:24, 11 April 2011 (UTC)

message: I have noticed the logo of "Extra" seen on Wikipedia differs than the one seen on the actual website. If anyone could update the image, that would be OK, but please discuss it here beforehand. (Note that the one I am referring to is the one distributed by Warner Bros., not the other articles.) This may be the reason why I could/already have deleted the logo; in that case, please do not revert that specific edit until the logo that the user uploads matches the one seen on the official website. Thank you for understanding. CHAK 001 (talk) 09:31, 1 June 2011 (UTC)

message: After recently winning an Emmy award for Best Entertainment News Program, Extra is now in its 21st season. The show is produced by a staff of about 150 people, consisting of editors, producers, library staff, film crews, and the hosts. The show is taped at Universal Studios Hollywood, Monday through Friday, from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm extratv.com. The show is taped before a live audience, allowing fans to interact with the show's hosts and includes live appearances from A-list actors, musicians, athletes, and newsmakers. Extra also takes a unique approach in keeping their viewers in the loop by taking them on coast-to-coast trips in every episode, from Hollywood to Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas to their H&M studio in New York.  extratv.com  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.166.220.254 (talk) 07:05, 24 March 2015 (UTC)

message: Hey Billy:
Your runs down of the best Super Bowl commercials seriously lacked the best. I get you have to promote Hollywood and the actors that Star, but that means you missed the best of the best.
Budweisers Clydesdale episode was so uplifting. But, the Farmers Dog commercial was the best by far, not even close.
Sorry it didn’t have Extra “talent” in it so you could promote, but the best commercial to show love between man and animal in this chaotic environment we live in.
Disappointed is beyond words.
