Participation in the Muppet Wiki Forums requires a full understanding of the Rules and Etiquette.



So, I was scrolling on this page (The Muppets Take Manhattan (video)) today and noticed the section describing the 4K Blu-Ray was formatted slightly different to that of the other sections on the page. I thought that the page would look cleaner and edited as such, but obviously it led to the page being locked (which I have noticed... whenever I edit on most pages they always get protected for a week or so) and another warning for not using the Forum to discuss about it before I edited the page.

So, I was thinking on the movie pages at least, or maybe TV show video pages as well that I could go with something like this (this was part of my previous edit):


DVD Releases

Cover Year Notes
TMTMDVD
2001 Distributor: Columbia TriStar Home Entertainment
Catalogue number: 05616

The first North American DVD release of the film. It contains a single disc with both the widescreen and full screen transfers of the film. Unlike previous releases, (and concurrent Muppet movie DVD releases), this version has mono sound rather than stereo.

Disc Features

  • The Muppets Take Manhattan (Widescreen & Full Screen)
  • Audio: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese
  • Subtitles: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, Thai

So here, I put the distributor and product number above and put more emphesis on the release itself.

I think it looks good! Clean and neat. —Scott latest?cb=20200820192427 (talk) 14:48, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
I dig it. -- Tony latest?cb=20200820192427 (talk) 15:07, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Another idea I had was in regards to international releases. Having releases corospond with a specific country, much like how the Disney Wiki formats it's video pages. Standalone video pages obviously don't need those changes but the international sections may need cleanup as well. Eg, I had a look on the A Muppet Family Christmas (video) page and it looks a bit messy due to the way it's currently formatted. LTPHarry (talk) 15:26, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Truth be told, our home video pages have been kind of a mess for a long time and they're long overdue for an overhaul. I have it on my list of long-term projects, but I think small improvements are good for now. —Scott latest?cb=20200820192427 (talk) 16:13, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
If you want me to, should I create a test draft (eg, doing one for The Muppets Take Manhattan utalizing the edits I previously did) or something like that? LTPHarry (talk) 23:33, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Sorry, didn't see this until now. I meant my two comments to indicate that I think the changes are fine. —Scott latest?cb=20200820192427 (talk) 21:28, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Okay, if you're sure about it. LTPHarry (talk) 22:05, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
Alright, I have finished editing the page. There are at least two or three UK releases I haven't added on yet (namely the Blu-Ray and the 2015 Sony Pictures "The Muppets Movie Collection" releases). LTPHarry (talk) 00:55, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
