Talk:A Canterlot Wedding

Different image?
I'm starting to think that maybe the lead image for this page should be something that fits what's going on more, not just a glamor shot of the husband and bride. I wonder, maybe a scene that has the Queen, Cadance, and Shining Armor all in one shot? I could see it captioned "Princess Cadance and Shining Armor discover the evil doppelganger he was about to marry" or something around that line. ViperSnake151  Talk  20:18, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I think the lead image should stay the same, but what you said should instead be used to illustrate the article. Ciaran Sinclair (talk) 22:34, 23 April 2012 (UTC)


 * From a non-free content POV, right now there is no justification for a image for this episode; none of the reviews or production source require visual identification to connect with the text (see WP:NFCC). That's not to say that an image could be possible, but we need some reason to highlight an image from the show.  If one can find a reliable source that affirms that, for example, Shining and Cadance are meant as ponified Royal couple standins, that's one thing.  Or, for example, if someone talks about the scary design of the Queen Changeling as an oddity in kids programming, we can jump on that.  But as the article presently stands, there's no call for that.
 * Personally, I would love to try to get the music recognized so that we can include a snippet of the "This Day Aria", but right now, even with AVClub's glowing review, there's not much to justify inclusion, and unfortunately the part about how it plays on the musical tones of a cadance is tied to a reddit post, even if Ingram gave a nod to it being right, making it unreliable. --M ASEM (t) 23:07, 23 April 2012 (UTC)


 * This is exactly why I named the image "A Canterlot Wedding image.png" - specifically so that it could easily be replaced with a different scene. I am very okay with someone uploading a different screenshot that we think would illustrate the entire two episodes better. dogman15 (talk) 01:06, 24 April 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay, I changed it to a new pictureits one with Shining Armor seeing Queen Chrysalis. My caption does note about the darker themes too. ViperSnake151   Talk  04:04, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

Edit request on 26 April 2012
Please change 'Cadance' to 'Cadence' in all instances. Ingram and others confirm the proper spelling.

 * Both spellings have been used by Hasbro so until there's better clarification we're sticking to the one that the producers have written down. --M ASEM (t) 19:54, 26 April 2012 (UTC)

FA?
Should we nominate for FA status? It must be near FA already, so it shouldn't be too much effort. Then we can have the first featured MLP article! Ciaran Sinclair (talk) 19:25, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Without background on development and more significant review coverage, this would not qualify for an FA. FAs on episode articles are expected to be much more comprehensive than what this can provide at this time. --M ASEM (t) 20:05, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay. I wasn't fully sure on the criteria. Ciaran Sinclair (talk) 06:23, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Well... And as a reminder, Hasbro never used the word alicorn to refer such species with wings and a horn. JSH-alive/talk/cont/mail 12:11, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Make a section titled "Background", and confirm that the episode is related to an upcoming wedding-themed playset announced earlier.
 * Describe Hasbro and The Hub's marketing effort, including (but not limited to) The New York Times' wedding section, spreading screeners to critics, casting Tori Spelling to host season finale special, and themed screenings of the episodes before actual airdate.

DVD?
Was the DVD REALLY released on August 7th? I've seen and ordered it on amazon so I assume it really exists, but I haven't seen it in stores. My friend was just at Seattle and he said it hasn't been released in the US either. Should we maybe say the real release date before people start making vandalism accusations? 24.65.123.9 (talk) 17:38, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It's out, I've seen people with it, I've seen reviews of it. It's definitely out. --M ASEM  (t) 17:39, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Are you sure? Coz I heard that people started a rumor of its release so that Hasbro would correct them and say the real release date, and that no one who knows the release date can tell anyone until Hasbro announces it. 24.65.123.9 (talk) 03:17, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I've physically seen it in peoples hands and watched a copy with them. It's out (at least, in the United States, can't vouch elsewhere.) --M ASEM  (t) 03:20, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
