:This or something like it could be placed atop the protected pages before broadcast, along with extremely barebones info, possibly links to the previous/next story pages (similarly locked) in the infobox, and no characters or other things to redlink until broadcast. | :This or something like it could be placed atop the protected pages before broadcast, along with extremely barebones info, possibly links to the previous/next story pages (similarly locked) in the infobox, and no characters or other things to redlink until broadcast.

::I'm okay with this. I know I've been creating the recent SJA episodes, only because it's tedious to go through and fix infoboxes ''after'' everyone's messed with it, so I just like to get the basic format and infobox in place before everyone starts filling the article. | ::I'm okay with this.

::I agree with characters and actors, I hate seeing articles written that say "This actor will appear in an episode of Series Fnarg" and the article being uncategorised and unsourced. | ::I agree with characters and actors, I hate seeing articles written that say "This actor will appear in an episode of Series Fnarg" and the article being uncategorised and unsourced. | ||
::Currently I've got all the upcoming SJA episodes fully create protected (and I've got what I hope is every permutation of 'Christmas Special 2010' locked as well, you can see a full list of protected titles [[Special:ProtectedTitles|here]]). | ::Currently I've got all the upcoming SJA episodes fully create protected (and I've got what I hope is every permutation of 'Christmas Special 2010' locked as well, you can see a full list of protected titles [[Special:ProtectedTitles|here]]). | ||
::Should these locked pages have the layout and infobox? Or just a note saying "this is story X of Series Y"? I'm in part in favour of having the basic layout of inbox/layout in place, that way it can be set up beforehand and then fully protected to a certain date, then when it's unprotected it's ready to be edited on. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 11:17, October 13, 2010 (UTC) | ::Should these locked pages have the layout and infobox?

:::Exactly what I was thinking of; the point to this would be so admins can have the tidy infobox and template in place, without worrying about the info going untidy and requiring babysitting before broadcast. | :::Exactly what I was thinking of; the point to this would be so admins can have the tidy infobox and template in place, without worrying about the info going untidy and requiring babysitting before broadcast. | ||
:::I like the idea of having the basic layout there with the ''to be added'' notes, all the easier to fill in later and create a page that's more easily brought up to standard when it's unlocked. | :::I like the idea of having the basic layout there with the ''to be added'' notes, all the easier to fill in later and create a page that's more easily brought up to standard when it's unlocked. A completely empty or infobox-only page might result in a bit of a mess as the rush to populate it takes place; having the layout already there would simplify that for everyone.

::::I've also updated the [[Tardis:Spoiler policy]] to reflect this, with a section on 'Actor and in-universe articles' for stuff yet to be broadcast any of those sort of articles will be deleted if they're created. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 16:07, October 16, 2010 (UTC) | ::::I've also updated the [[Tardis:Spoiler policy]] to reflect this, with a section on 'Actor and in-universe articles' for stuff yet to be broadcast any of those sort of articles will be deleted if they're created. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] 16:07, October 16, 2010 (UTC) | ||

:::::Right. THIS IS A STUPID IDEA! Only Admin can edit but when some one else has usefull information you put it on the talk page and nothing happens. On all SJA pages there are Synopsis yet there not added to the page before being protected so for a week or what ever we have a page that has no information why don't we just wait untill after the show airs [[User:Joshoedit|Joshoedit]] 19:16, November 15, 2010 (UTC) | |||
