Wrong Airdates
I think some airdate are wrong since it skips from 2003 to 2004 to 2003 back again.
 * The airdates are correct. The episodes are listed by Production, which is consistant with the DVDs. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 22:41, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

It says in the Spongebob article that the show had a hiatus from 2002 to 2005 with Pranks A Lot being aired in October 2002. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Special:Contributions/ (talk)
 * Every airdate is fixed as of right now. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 18:02, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

SpongeBob Loses His Pants?
Why did someone put in the episode "Blackjack" that SpongeBob loses his pants? --Gerlicky 21:42, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Must be vandals. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 22:42, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. --Gerlicky 14:04, 10 August 2007 (UTC) Should that be vandalized? 67.38.240.251 10:51, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Season Five
Someone deleted season five from the list, but kept all of the others, including season six.

Now Season 6 is deleted, but all the other Seasons are still there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Im A Shark (talk • contribs) 02:15, August 26, 2007 (UTC) Every season is there. 67.38.240.251 22:12, 24 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Seems like someone put it again but the chart is a little bit large... I'm not good in wiki stuffs so I'll have to let other people fix it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 201.43.176.191 (talk) 02:45, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

Friendward
Is it true that there is going to be a Spongebob episode that's going to be a complete ripoff of the Camp Lazlo episode of the same name, or did some Spongebob/Camp Lazlo fan add that garbage in there? -  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jspyster1 (talk • contribs) 15:47, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * The second one would be right. No source so it's been deleted. NA SC AR Fan 24 (user&bull;talk) 21:14, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
 * I may have been misunderstood. "Friendward" is a fake unless a reliable source is cited. NA SC AR Fan 24 (user&bull;talk) 21:50, 14 September 2007 (UTC)I Agree. 67.38.240.251 10:53, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * I am a Spongebob Squarepants/ Camp Lazlo fan, but I did not do it. 66.72.193.13 01:11, 4 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

DVDs
Do we really need this table/section? The information presented in this table is already stated in SpongeBob SquarePants so it is basically redundant. (And yes, I know I moved the table into this section, it's better than being slapped on at the top of the page.) NA SC AR Fan 24 (user&bull;talk) 21:17, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

New Episode - Worldwide Day of Play
A new commercial is appearing for the Worldwide Day of Play (September 29) that will feature several new episodes of different shows, including a new episode of SpongeBob. Oddly, the commercial shows clips from past episodes (e.g. Blackjack). Can anyone find a source on this? Setherex 01:46, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Fungus Among Us/Le Big Switch is confirmed for 29th September per TV Guide. See article.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (talk&bull;contribs) 21:19, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

How do you know that? 67.38.240.251 22:16, 24 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Er...it's already been aired?  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 22:34, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Er... Fungus Among Us has not been aired? It's supposed to be Goo Goo Gas/ Le Big Switch. 67.38.240.251 10:55, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Yeah, it has. I've seen it myself - pretty hilarious too, what with the green goo all over the place. It aired as scheduled on 29th September.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!●ER) 19:47, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

I saw it! It was Rise and Shine/ Waiting/ Fungus Among Us! 66.72.193.13 01:07, 4 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Copy-editing
I've gone through and copy-edited all of the episode summaries. If someone would like to check over them, go ahead. Thanks.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (user&bull;talk) 16:23, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

 * I never wanted to have vandalism all over Wikipedia! 67.38.240.251 10:59, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * It's not you specifically vandalising the article, just IP's in general. Oh, and by the way, the page has been semi'ed. For the fourth time. This time for two weeks.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!●ER) 19:33, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

This is Stupid!!
I am Completely fed up of waiting for the episode articles to be improved. Bring them back they don't need improving! This is stupid. The episode articles have been gone for 4 Months! Bring them back now. (Woggy 13:10, 30 September 2007 (UTC))
 * Instead of complaining about it, why don't you go help? There's people that are working on it, and you can help by clicking the link under "help improve the episode articles". Keep in mind that almost every article violated the following policies/guidelines:
 * WP:TRIVIA - no trivia sections in articles
 * WP:CITE - no references in trivia sections
 * WP:EL and WP:LINKFARM - no links to fansites, Youtube, etc. unless they are needed.
 * WP:PLOT - overly detailed plot sumamries
 * With over 90 episodes, rewriting all of them could take a while.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 13:23, 30 September 2007 (UTC)

I found some of the old episode guides on the Spongebob wiki, though they do need to be improved.70.253.64.81 (talk) 00:38, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

Pictures
Can't there be any sort of pictures in this article, that would improve it very well, that's what i think, pictures often improve articles in postive or negatvie ways, in this case, it would improve it in the positive way, pictures also do the article more intersting. --Rutherfordjigsaw 13:17, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
 * I would like some pictures, too, but last time someone tried, the pictures were removed for failing WP:F.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 16:19, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Atlantis SquarePantis Commercials
New commercials are beginning to air on Nickelodeon for AS. First, they say it's a TV movie. Second, there will be a marathon of episodes voted by the public online at Nick.com. Third, there will be a Behind the Scenes interview during the premiere. Lastly, the commercial says the air date is November 12, 2007, not 11th. Setherex 16:17, 13 October 2007 (UTC) Yes, it's true. 65.43.182.46 (talk) 15:41, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Yes, I've seen the same commercials. Not sure about any other information on the voting thing (besides the commercial) though. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 22:12, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Should we be paring down this article as much as we are?
70.190.223.146 has been seriously paring down this article. I am assuming good faith, and maybe it's for the better. But do we really want the article shortened as much as s/he is shortening it? Peteweez 03:28, 19 October 2007 (UTC).
 * It would be fine if there were individual episode articles, but as there are not, we need summaries of at least a few sentences long. For example, is the article really worth having if all the summaries are as long as "SpongeBob ties his shoes" or "SpongeBob and Patrick get split up by Squidward"? I'm assuming good faith here too, but there's a point at which you just have to revert their edits becuase they are lowering the quality of the article.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 10:39, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia should not have summaries as long as "Spongebob becomes a french chef." 68.76.121.171 13:20, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz But some have very long summaries. 68.76.121.171 13:25, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Some have short summaries - that's all they need. Other episodes are more complex and require longer summaries.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 22:35, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Where can i help?
I would like to help improve the episode articles but i don't know where you can do it. Can somebody tell me? (Clawsofmidnight 16:35, 19 October 2007 (UTC))

Atlantis Squarepantis
There should be an article about Atlantis Squarepantis the Spongebob Squarepants movie. 68.76.121.171 13:15, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz

I Was a Teenage Gary
In the trivia section of the article there should be a note that some characters become a snail in I Was a Teenage Gary because they were injected by snail plasma. 68.76.121.171 13:31, 20 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz

As when Spongebob eats the bomb/ pie in Dying For Pie. 65.43.178.200 22:45, 7 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

I want to help!
Where can i help to improve the episode articles? (Clawsofmidnight 15:42, 20 October 2007 (UTC))
 * Well, there's not really much to do round here. You could try going through the summaries and copy-editing them - they do get bad after a long while. You can also watch this page (click "watch") at the top and revert any vandalism you see.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 15:49, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

So your saying that your pretty much almost finished? And what do you mean by the summaries? What do i do if somebody vandalises a page? (Clawsofmidnight 16:04, 20 October 2007 (UTC))
 * Yeah, I've done the main episode summaries (season 1-5) twice I think, but the shorts at the bottom still need cleanup. And if someone vandalises a page, go into the history (click history at the top of the page) and click "undo" and then "save". You can then leave a warning on their talkpage (by clicking "talk" next to their name) by using one of the templates at WP:WARN. I would recommend leaving a warning becuase it allows you and others to report repeat vandals to Administrator intervention against vandalism.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 12:07, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

Split?
Okay, this article is getting pretty long. If I go into Print Preview, the article is 22 pages long (letter size), well over the recommended limit of 10 pages. I was thinking along the lines of splitting into articles by season (List of SpongeBob SquarePants episodes, season 1, etc.) and removing the Shorts section (as that doesn't really belong here), or splitting into groups (season 1-2, season 3-4, season 5-6, etc). The Shorts section could also be removed, and we can see how long the article is then.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 21:43, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Yeah let's do it, I mean, if SpongeBob has like 5 more seasons, then, this page will be to big. Jibajabba 19:21 20 October 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.190.223.146 (talk) It is not too big. We should keep expanding Wikipedia. 67.38.240.251 10:46, 25 October 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Now, I don't mean trim down the article, I mean split it into smaller articles. People using older computers and slower Internet connections have trouble loading large pages like this one.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!●ER) 19:48, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes! 66.72.193.13 23:04, 6 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Wrong
It says on the page for the show that there is 93½ episodes. You will see that there is only 92½ episodes for now. Jibajabba 19:31 20 October 2007 (UTC) — Preceding comment signed as by Jibajabba (talk • contribs) actually added by 70.190.223.146 (talk • contribs)

 * Atlantis SquarePantis didn't air yet. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 20:19, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
 * It's also not an episode, it's a TV movie (similar to The Jimmy/Timmy Power Hour). TJ Spyke 02:12, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

I saw 95 and a half episodes. 66.72.193.13 12:25, 4 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Vandalize on Lord Royal Highness or Atlantis Squarepantis

 * With all this trouble, people will probably get vandalized because of what they might do with the episode Atlantis Squarepantis. 66.72.193.13 12:33, 4 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * What exactly do you mean by "people will probably get vandalized" and "all this trouble"? Are you talking about the Atlantis SquarePantis article (which was deleted a few hours ago) or the episode in general? Please elabourate.  N F 24 (radio me!Editor review) 12:37, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Episode Pages
Last year, I think it was last year, I found articles for the episodes like for the Family Guy and The Simpsons episode articles, describing the plot and giving trivia and notes for each episode, and now it has been deleted. I would like to put those articles back up. I will start but I will need help from all of you other users. User: EuroJordan 16:40 6 November, 2007 —Preceding comment was added at 22:40, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * WikiProject SpongeBob SquarePants has specifically asked that episode articles not be created. This is due to the fact that most of the episodes do not pass the notability guidelines for fiction. The articles were also in very bad shape because IP's continually added useless trivia and links to watch the episodes on YouTube. I would not recommend creating them at this time.  N F 24 (radio me!Editor review) 23:01, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Yes, references, production details, and reception information are needed for the episodes to have their own articles and trivia is recommended to be avoided on Wikipedia. Go to WP:SBSP to see what you can do to help improve the episode articles. The SpongeBob wiki contains all the plot/trivia/quotes you were referring too. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 23:41, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

8 New Episode Titles
I will add any descriptions that come up later on. All of them will air along the Nick's Super Stuffed Weekend on November 23rd. Setherex 03:10, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * SpongeHenge
 * To Save a Squirrel
 * The Inmates of Summer
 * 20,000 Patties Under the Sea
 * Stanley S. SquarePants
 * The Battle of Bikini Bottom
 * Banned in Bikini Bottom
 * Krabby Patties are banned from Bikini Bottom after SpongeBob's musical tribute irritates Miss Priss.
 * The Two Faces of Squidward
 * Everyone falls for Squidward after plastic surgery makes him irresistibly handsome.
 * Sources? Otherwise the IP's will go crazy adding them.  N F 24 (radio me!Editor review) 11:33, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Added two episode descriptions. It's not a source, but the guide on me and my friends' television. I believe that if two different broadcasting systems say it, it's good enough. You may want to search the Nick.com television listings. Setherex 17:07, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

Come on
Let people edit the episode page, who is going to vandalize it? The seasons are split into pages now, so who will? And can you lat people edit the main page now to. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.176.124.218 (talk) 03:34, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

More Peer Review
The shorts section... should it have a problem with Avoid weasel words? 65.43.182.46 11:52, 16 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Erm...what shorts section? Do you mean the lead on List of SpongeBob SquarePants episodes?  N F 24 (radio me!Editor review) 12:00, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes... I mean that shorts section. -- 65.43.182.46 (talk) 20:57, 16 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Okay, then. Weasel words are things like "some people say" or "a widely held viewpoint" or "it has been said" without citations. The lead currently doesn't contain weasel words.  N F 24 (radio me!Editor review) 22:37, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Oh... Okay then. 65.43.182.46 (talk) 00:17, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz It does not have a problem with Wikipedia:Avoid weasel words. 65.43.182.46 (talk) 00:19, 17 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Mixed up episodes
The new episodes are mixed up. I know I saw The Two Faces of Squidward along with the episode SpongeHenge. It aired yesterday. 65.43.182.46 (talk) 15:35, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Has work finished now?
Surely you have completed work on the episodes? When will you complete the episodes articles? (Clawsofmidnight (talk) 18:14, 25 November 2007 (UTC))
 * It unfortunately appears that they will never come back. Most of the episodes fail the notability guidelines for fiction and the project to revive the articles has gone stale. Besides, the SpongeBob SquarePants Wikia has a detailed episode guide.  N F 24 (radio me!) 18:17, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

There is no article for the first episode which is called Help Wanted. 65.43.178.61 (talk) 23:26, 26 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz I disagree with that totally. Spongebob is a popular TV show, and therefore should have its episode articles back. If it doesn't, then the List of Spongebob episodes article should not belong on wikipedia. (Clawsofmidnight (talk) 18:44, 25 November 2007 (UTC))

Deleted Episode?
Who deleted the episode called "Christmas Who?"? It's back already though. 65.43.182.46 (talk) 23:07, 25 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

Misspelling
On the summary for Night Light, boogeyman is spelled bogeyman. Will someone correct the spelling mistake? 65.43.178.61 (talk) 23:24, 26 November 2007 (UTC)Kinz

I would if i could, but at the moment, it is been unprotected. (172.212.220.235 (talk) 18:21, 27 November 2007 (UTC))
 * ✅ Done - "Bogeyman" sounds like a golfer's nightmare. In the future, please raise any issues pertaining to specific season articles on that article's talkpage - if a user who is not SpongeBob-savvy came round, they wouldn't know what you were talking about.

Title Cards
Can we at least get the title card pics back, I like to see them. Jibajabba 20:00, 28 Novenmber 2007 (UTC)

I think they were deleted for a reason. I don't think they will bring them back. I like the title card pics as well, and the article does need a picture to improve it. (Clawsofmidnight (talk) 18:41, 29 November 2007 (UTC))
 * I believe you attempted to upload the pictures, Jibajabba, a while back, but they were deleted because they didn't have fair use rationales, IIRC. If you're willing to upload 100 pictures and write 100 fair use rationales, then no one's stopping you from doing so.  N F 24 (radio me!) 20:38, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

I don't want to take the time. Jibajabba 20:14, 30 November 2007 (UTC) Come on, can you do ten in one day? 66.72.204.235 (talk) 20:01, 9 December 2007 (UTC)Kinz
 * Title cards can be found here. The title cards were removed from the episode page because there was too many fair use images on one article. The images were removed and reverted 3 times. - AMK152 ( Talk •  Contributions  • Send message) 23:46, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
