== Foreign comics ==

== Foreign broadcasters ==
Okay, I think we need to start a discussion on comics. In particular, foreign comics. I think this is how it should be done:
+
We seem to have [[:Category:Broadcasters|a whole load]] of pages about foreign TV stations that broadcast the show. I don't believe we need all of these. The major English ones we should keep, in the scope of the wiki, but the foreign ones should go unless there's a special reason an article should stay. Thoughts? <span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span> 12:22, May 21, 2016 (EDT)
*English language comics get articles for the series and each issue. This will include releases in the US, UK and Australia. And any other country with English releases.
 
*Foreign countries should just get an article like "Simpsons Comics in Country". This will list the series in the country, how many issues of that series are released etc. but they will not have separate articles for each comic issue.
 
 
 
The reasoning behind this is that this is an English language wiki. Whilst it is okay to have some articles about foreign media, we shouldn't have a whole load of them. <span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span> 07:15, December 7, 2015 (EST)
 
:I agree, not because this is an english wiki, but because they are completely unnecessary. I don't know how the simpsons comics are in other countries, but I think they only were translated in Sweden with no differences.

::I also agree. This is an English language wiki, so it does not make much sense to have articles about Simpsons Comics in Other (non-English Speaking) Countries. And I also agree with FatHomer: the comics in other countries are basically the same english comics translated. / [[User:Loco87|'''<font color=C23232><font size="4"><font face="Calibri">Loco</font></font></font><font color=92CC58><font face="Agency FB"><font size="4">87</font></font></font>''']] <sup>([[User talk:Loco87|<font color=78D1F0><font face="Courier New">'''TALK'''</font></font>]] / [[Special:Contributions/Loco87|'''<font color=Tomato><font face="Century Gothic"><font size="2">Contribs</font></font></font>''']])</sup> 15:23, December 9, 2015 (EST)

== List of nudity and semi-nudity ==
 
Okay, this has been bugging me for some time. I think it's time to define some proper guidelines about this page. This is what I think should be done about it:
 
#Only nudity is listed. No semi-nudity (no underwear, diapers etc.)
 
#Half nudity should also not be included. No male toplessness for example.
 
#Listing when a buttcrack is shown is not nudity. That happens from time to time in real life too. It's not counted as nudity.
 
 
 
This makes me feel dirty for having to bring all this up... urgh... but this page really needs to be defined properly. <span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span> 07:15, December 7, 2015 (EST)
 
: I created this list based on SNPP, that had the same list. Other user started to adding underwear and diapers later. For me is Solar's idea good./[[User:AleWi|AleWi]] ([[User talk:AleWi|talk]]) 10:09, December 11, 2015 (EST)
 
::Agreed. --[[User:Nick97|'''<font color=darkorange>Nick97</font>''']] <sup>([[User talk:Nick97|<font color=peach>'''talk'''</font>]] ~ [[Special:Contributions/Nick97|<font color=turquoise>'''contribs'''</font>]])</sup>  00:51, December 12, 2015 (EST)
 
 
 
== Image policy ==
 
What's the image policy on fan-made diagrams? Reason I ask is because I was able to rip the HUD maps from Hit & Run but they'd be more informative if I labelled where all the major locations are. --[[User:Zenthor|Zenthor]] ([[User talk:Zenthor|talk]]) 19:06, January 2, 2016 (EST)
 
:Sorry for the late reply to this. That should be fine, but would it be possible to upload two of each image, one labelled, one clean? <span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span> 14:00, February 17, 2016 (EST)
 
 
 
== "Weekly" to-do list ==
 
I think we should have an "official" to-do list for every new episode. It would probably help so some pages aren't forgotten to be updated, like the list of chalkboard gags. I've made a list of things to complete here: [[User:FatHomer/Sandbox]]. There are probably more things that could be added to it, and you're welcome to edit it if you have anything in mind. [[User:FatHomer|<b><span style="color: teal">FatHomer</span></b>]]<sup>[[User talk:FatHomer|Talk]]</sup> 12:09, February 17, 2016 (EST)
 
:I'm not too sure on that. If someone wants to update episode articles, go ahead. Having a list won't make people want to. Everyone knows what needs to be done by looking at the articles. <span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span> 14:00, February 17, 2016 (EST)

Wiki discussion is the place where major discussions and decisions can be made. Larger discussions will have their own pages but smaller discussions will go here.

Foreign broadcasters

We seem to have a whole load of pages about foreign TV stations that broadcast the show. I don't believe we need all of these. The major English ones we should keep, in the scope of the wiki, but the foreign ones should go unless there's a special reason an article should stay. Thoughts?
