 The correct spot for these hour long specials should be under specials

Why? Do you have proof they were not broadcast as part of the regular seasons?

@banana_girl My main issue here is that these are “special” hour long episodes (normal is 30 minutes) that in my opinion should be listed as 1 episode, not split parts. Being mixed in with the season vs season 0 isn’t as big an issue. Typically the articles and press releases form PBS calls these specials I know the continent bible says Sometimes a network will call an episode a "special" episode—as an example, "in this special holiday themed episode"—but still assign it a season and episode number;but I’ve never seen PBS assign episode numbers. Here one such press release

On split vs not split the content bible says:


For kids cartoon with two or three distinct stories (segments) per half-hour, each episode should be split so that each segment is an episode. For example, "Going the Extra Milo / Sunny Side Up" should be two episodes. The main reason for splitting the segments is that segments are often released individually and/or paired with a different segment in subsequent releases.

These do not fit that criteria these are hour long episodes that tell a singe story.

Sending from my phone so I hopes the quotes show up ok.

@banana_girl any thoughts on what I replied?

Based on this TV programm, it seems that they have been broadcasted as a single episode:

But we still don't know if they were special episodes or part of the regular seasons.

One thing is sure, if they are part of the regular season, they are currently not at the correct place based on their airdate.

We still need official proof on how they were originally broadcasted.

The part of the Bible you quote as nothing to do with the case here.

I quoted that because people keep splitting the episode into part 1 and part 2. My assumption is they think that's correct based on how other shows get split, but I could be mistake. For the time being can we clean up the Part1 part 2 issue? This has 3 entries:

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35094-wild-kratts/season/5/episode/17

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35094-wild-kratts/season/5/episode/18

I've done a decent amount of looking and I can not find proof for special vs season. I would say pick one, and if someone finds proof later it can be updated.

We will wait for @banana_girl advice.

Follow up question was it ok for me to @ someone like that? I don't want to do that again if it isn't appropriate.

Specials already exit for all 4 of these:

I took a look at the special episodes. The first three specials were special event (eg. Rainforest Week) that you had written over. Please don't do that. The fourth special was a brand new duplicate. I removed them.

The correct spot for these hour long specials should be under specials

I'm leaving them where they are since there is no proof they were not counted as regular episodes.

it seems that they have been broadcasted as a single episode

Okay. Fixed and I locked season 4 and 5 (without verifying the data).

Second, I noticed 2 other hour long shows that are being split into two segments:

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35094-wild-kratts/season/3/episode/6

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35094-wild-kratts/season/3/episode/7

and

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35094-wild-kratts/season/4/episode/13

https://www.themoviedb.org/tv/35094-wild-kratts/season/4/episode/14

Can the part 2 be deleted for these like the other ones?
