Talk:List of Pingu episodes

message: Help / comments, please.
On and off over the past couple of months I have put together a list of 157 Pingu episodes, from various sources (DVD / VHS listings, episode lists, etc), and have reconciled this list to the latest Wiki list. There are three episodes I have which do not appear to be on the Wiki list i.e.
*“Pingu and the Braces” (broadcast as “new” by the BBC very recently - seems to belong towards the end of the Series 5 group), on the DVD "Boogaloo Pingu", and
*“Pingu and the Doll”, on a DVD called “Pingu the Baker”, and “Pingu Gets a Warning”, on “Pingu the Pilot”, as listed on the bhvn website. Both these episodes appear to belong towards the end of Series 4.
If this is correct, then Series 4 would have 26 rather than 24 episodes, and Series 5 52 rather than 51 (note: I came across a reference today on a Japanese site to the recent availability of a Series 6 DVD with 26 episodes – I suspect that this is in fact episodes 131 – 156 of the 5 minute episodes and that they’re treating our Series 5 as two series of 26 episodes).

thread_title: [[List of Pingu episodes]]

message: I have been investigating the Pingu episode titles, as derived from various DVD and video content lists (in English and /or as translated (!?!) from non-English sources), BBC broadcast titles, etc, etc), with a view to coming up with a “definitive” list (and alternative versions where applicable). 
As these Wiki pages are English, I feel that any (main) title used should make sense in English, and be correct both grammatically and in spelling. The title actually used can be a bit subjective, but I would suggest that as far as practicable they are defined to be consistent with UK practice and usage (e.g. episode 1.13 is usually referred to as “Barrel of Fun” rather than as “Pingu and the race on the barrel planks”, 2.12 “Pingu’s Parents gave no time” is usually “Pingu’s New Kite”, etc).      
Before I have a go at “tidying up” the current  listing, are there any constructive comments that anyone would like to make? Kwerty 02:29, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

message: Is there anyone who has an intention to set up episode descriptions? If not, I'll make a start myself, but before doing this are there any 
guidelines, preferences, etc as to how it might best be done? Kwerty 03:24, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I suggest to merge the List of Pingu special episodes here, as they does not appear sufficiently notable to substain a separate independent article.--Cavarrone (talk) 08:33, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

message: The air date of the Pingu episodes in this page are unsourced. According to some releable sources such as the official Pingu japanese website, they say the first episode aired on 10.11.1990! http://web.archive.org/web/20170207103315/http://www.pingu.jp/history/index.htmlhttps://www.fernsehserien.de/pingu You just believed in this air date lie.--109.101.220.131 (talk) 15:18, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pingu's Air Date Trouble 

message: Recently, I went back through this article's history to try and restore it back to having actual information about the show that was surely there. I had to go back to around 2016-2017, but I did manage to find a point prior to the vandalism and restored it (although I confess to not knowing how to actually "restore" an edit, so in a pinch I just did it manually by copy-pasting the original revision).
Unfortunately, someone who wasn't paying much attention restored it back to the vandalized version of the article. For those of you wondering, no, Woody Woodpecker and Pingu are entirely unrelated, even though I feel this doesn't have to be said. The show doesn't date back to 1941, and it's fairly obvious the rest of the inaccurate information was added in by someone copying information blindly from the Woody Woodpecker article.
This is probably the only time I've ever added to a Talk page in my life - I don't even have an account! I'm just disappointed that some lesser articles on Wikipedia (such as the episode list for an international kid's show) get slipped through the cracks and even assisted by patrolling editors who mean well but don't pay attention in vandalism. I won't re-restore the older version of the article, especially as I was doing it incorrectly, but I'll put this here in hopes it will explain things and maybe someone with more clout around here can fix the issue without it being undone.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.181.190.45 (talk) 19:06, 15 November 2018 (UTC)
