FAQs

Welcome to the YTV Schedule Archives! Thank you for your interest in contributing to this project and helping to build a bigger and better guide to all things YTV! Here are a list of questions you may have (and their answers).

==General==
Q: What is "Newspapers"? I keep seeing it on schedule pages.
A: Newspapers is short for newspapers.com, an internet archive of newspapers. Any paper name followed up by "via Newspapers" means it was sourced from that site.
Q: What is a screenbug? I don't see any bug!
A: A screenbug is the little YTV logo in the corner of the screen (usually the lower right). Screenbugs are actually one of the main ways we're able to figure out the dates some of our old tapes were recorded, so they're extremely important! 
NOTE: Up until 2010, YTV's screenbug would only show up a few times during certain programs. If you don't see it at first, keep watching for it in the corner! It pops up about 2-4 times throughout the show.
Q: Will you cover any of YTV's sister networks?
A: Currently, no. Archiving 35+ years of broadcast history is already an extremely huge undertaking as it is.

A: Good question! Here's a basic guide on how you can get started.
Q: I have old recorded VHS tapes/DVDs/etc. of YTV! What can I do?
A: Wonderful! If you have old recordings of YTV, please reach out to us! We're always interested in helping people date their old recordings and adding new information to the wiki.
