Talk:American Horror Story: Murder House

Episode section lengths
Okay, either the sections need to be shorter, as they are summaries, or the episode pages need to be longer. It appears the summaries here are exact duplicates of the episode articles. I would rather see this than lengthy paragraphs that tell everything the articles say. This article is about right. Thoughts? —  Wylie pedia  04:17, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Volunteers?
Now that the season has been officially named American Horror Story: Murder House. Who's gonna do the official move to the now-official title, as well as move ALL "Season 1" Wikimedia? Not I ! —  Wylie pedia  23:50, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't think that's a good idea. Although they've said that's the new title, I've yet to actually see it used anywhere. The on-screen title was just American Horror Story and the DVDs still say "first season". So unless they reissue the DVD set with the new title, I'd say "season one" is still the common name. --DocNox (talk) 05:44, 23 November 2012 (UTC)

Cast section
I'm growing tired of the edit wars regarding how many episodes each person has been in. I have not seen any Wiki-standard which says this information is warranted and should fall under WP:INDISCRIMINATE. I vote we merge those mentioned into the Plot section (most are already there) and remove this eyesore landmine. Support, Decline or Discuss. —  Wylie pedia  07:54, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

PAAFTJ awards
The awards are fake, self-established by a Wordpress user. No serious media take them for real in fact, or mention them, and they should be removed from the article in the first place. MiewEN (talk) 05:39, 23 August 2014 (UTC)

Critical reception
This article makes out that AHS is a very well received show when in fact it has been mocked for it's numerous flaws and poor writing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.46.78.108 (talk) 04:22, 1 September 2014 (UTC)

American Horror Story: Murder House → American Horror Story (season 1) – I could be wrong, but I don't ever remember there ever being a subtitle for this season when it aired 5 years ago only because it was the first one. 2601:8C:4001:DCF4:20F7:43F8:88A7:2E0F (talk) 16:18, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
 * No, it was given the official subtitle after airing. LLArrow (talk) 20:33, 2 August 2016 (UTC)
 * The subtitled name change to Murder House was sourced at one point once its DVD arrived. —  Wylie pedia  12:07, 4 August 2016 (UTC)


 * "Murder House" subtitle is used on Netflix. Chase (talk &#124; contributions) 18:57, 9 August 2016 (UTC)

American Horror Story (season 1) → American Horror Story: Murder House – Undiscussed move against consensus. The history needs to be moved back from Season 1 to Murder House. – Alex&#124;The&#124;Whovian ? 04:29, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

 * Pinging, as it was you who supported this controversial edit. Alex&#124;The&#124;Whovian ? 04:35, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
 * I already reverted back so the history is there and moved the page back, I think I crossed reverts/deletions with, but it should be back to normal now. --kelapstick(bainuu) 05:11, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Incorrect recurring actress
Can someone please remove actress Christian Serratos from "Recurring", as she is not. IP is not backing down. LLArrow (talk) 00:42, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

American Horror Story: Murder House → American Horror Story (season 1) – Fan dubbed name, name not given on any promotional material or boxset etc. "Murder House" is used widely, I accept, but Netflix is not what decides the name of the season, and no source is given stating the season is officially renamed Murder House, previous Washington Post source explicitly say that Murder House is the official name, only it sports that name (by whom, fans or FX, it doesn't state). T ed E dwards  22:35, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Oppose - There appear to be enough reliable sources which refer to the season as "Murder House". I found several looking for season ranking articles, but also searching for keywords: EW 2014, EW 2015, NY times 2015, Variety 2016). Even if "Murder House" is mostly fan-dubbed, it seems to have become at least somewhat accepted more widely. Enough at least so that we can continue to follow WP:TVSEASON and keep a consistent season naming scheme across the entire series (in this case, using "subtitles" instead of parenthetical). -- Netoholic @ 07:15, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * But if the subtitle isn't official, surely it's more important to use the parenthetical than to follow WP:TVSEASON. After all, WP:TVSEASON is a guideline only and it states there may be occassional exceptions may apply. That's not to say guidelines are optional though, they should be followed wherever possible, but I think this should be an exception as "Murder House" is fan-dubbed. It's also not jounalists who decide the name of the season. T ed  E dwards  15:27, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Correct, its not fans or journalists that determine the title, nor is any "official name" necessarily used to determine it. We title our articles based on the most common name for the topic in English.  WP:TVSEASON is based on WP:NATURALDIS (with a splash of WP:CONSISTENCY. The idea being that even if seasons vary in how they are referred, that we use a consistent pattern for them all to aid editors and readers. So, even if "Murder House" isn't the most common (or subjective the most "correct"), it is common enough to be useful for naming purpose. -- Netoholic @  17:01, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
 * Oppose - I will not look for sources, because i believe that above were provided, however FX Latin America credits it as "Murder House". Here i contribute a promo of the series, it is in Spanish.-- Philip J Fry / talk 15:46, 17 March 2018 (UTC)
