Talk:List of Would I Lie to You? episodes

Reason for proposed deletion
I'm going to some research on Wikipedia's policies for pages such as these, but it doesn't seem like there can be a great amount of detail for each episode seeing as it is a game show, and there is already a section on the Would I Lie To You? (TV series) page that covers the episodes.  [mad pierrot] [t   c]  01:20, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

Episode swap
The episode airing on 20 August has been changed so they're showing the one with Ronnie Corbett, Sarah Millican, Julian Clary and Holly Walsh. It's listed on the Radio Times as being episode 8 - http://www.radiotimes.com/ListingsServlet?event=10&channelId=92&programmeId=123010185&jspLocation=/jsp/prog_details_fullpage.jsp - so on the basis that they've swapped the episodes around, I'm going to assume that the originally scheduled episode (with John Bishop, Joanna Page, Chris Addison and Patsy Palmer) will now be shown last in the run. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cwmxii (talk • contribs) 12:00, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

24 Hour Panel People
24 Hour Panel People is going to include an episode of WILTY. Any thoughts for how we should list this? --Cwmxii (talk) 22:35, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Liar of the week?
What is that? I've seen pretty much all the episodes and have never come across that theme.--Lead holder (talk) 23:53, 19 November 2011 (UTC)

Australian premiere of 7x10
Episode 7x10 (WILTY At Christmas) has already aired in Australia. I've edited the page to state this episode's "first broadcast" both internationally and in the UK (as per the featured article List of Doctor Who serials handling of serials such as Silver Nemesis). I also updated the counts for the sake of pedantic accuracy. If someone wants to revert the counts to avoid 'spoiling' the episode for others I won't mind (it'll all be the same in a fortnight's time) - but the Australian airdate and its reference should remain in place.MildlyCurious (talk) 00:18, 13 December 2013 (UTC)

bad URL
The URL for this page is "List_of_Would_I_Lie_to_You%3F_episodes" with %3F replacing the illegal file name character ?. This breaks links and is an example of why illegal or reserved characters should not be used as explained https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filename#Reserved_characters_and_words. I have no idea how to fix it, but page urls should obey basic naming rules for file names here if anywhere on the web.user:dahemac — Preceding undated comment added 13:37, 10 March 2014 (UTC)

Thanks
I would just like to thank the person or people who have been carefully assembling information about the upcoming Series 8, with references, despite it being hard to find. 108.28.251.155 (talk) 02:15, 21 March 2014 (UTC)

Sources for upcoming guests for recently taped series
Can I ask about sourcing for the upcoming series? While I don't mind having a grid for the upcoming series during taping period, I do question the validity and lack of extraneous and corroborating sources for certain guests. User Cwmxii does try and find upcoming guests, but I have noticed that they do research and asks on Reddit for anybody who can fill in the blanks. They then make a post on Reddit, stating that after much research, he has found out about the missing guests, with just an updated list and then they update this page using their own Reddit post as source, when the Reddit page just has Cwmxii's word without showing valid proof of whether said guests actually appear. Where is the proof that Holly Willoughby will appear thus series if there isn't a Tweet or Instagram saying though. There is just Cwmxii linking solely to his own Reddit post. Is thus acceptable by Wikipedia standards.? Where is an actual source?135.0.252.54 (talk) 20:02, 5 July 2021 (UTC)


 * while i appreciate that the information may be trustworthy and definitely is interesting to know for people interested in the programme, it is definitely not allowed on wikipedia (see WP:UGC). what's being cited is merely word of mouth from one user asking for the input of people who claim to have been to a recording. as far as i know, nothing has been stated publicly. what would be acceptable would be things like a press release, tv guide, or if one of the actual guests from the show said that they would be appearing. citing word of mouth from social media doesn't qualify as a strong enough source to be included.

 * @Cwmxii pls read this before reverting edits back again! please make your argument here, i'd like to know your point of view, and i hope we can come to a productive conclusion instead of starting an edit war (see WP:AVOIDEDITWAR) :) Hillsyism (talk) 16:44, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure there's much I can add; I've been gathering the information on guests in this manner since Series 7 (as previous revisions will show) and I've got a proud record of never getting anything wrong. If I ask an audience member I try to link directly to the post they make wherever possible, and I make sure I'm absolutely certain before adding anything here (for example, two series ago Gyles Brandreth tweeted a picture of himself at Pinewood with members of the production team but I didn't use that because he didn't directly state he was going to be on the show so I didn't feel it was strong enough to use). Social media *is* used as a source on many other articles. Cwmxii (talk) 17:16, 15 May 2023 (UTC)
 * 15 may 23. David’s team. Gabby Logan and Jack Carroll. Lee had big Zuu and Bridget Christie.  I was there. 2A00:23C7:6788:DB01:A59B:A35D:623D:6474 (talk) 19:50, 20 May 2023 (UTC)
 * the question is of verifiability, not truth. As has indicated, Wikipedia doesn't include user-generated content, only one reason for which is that it can be factually dubious. It is not possible for volunteers to correctly assess and argue whether a fact is true, but it is possible for volunteers to assess whether a reliable source exists: as such, this is a key part of accountability and community co-operation. I don't see why we need a section at all for a series that is (we expect) months away from being released, per WP:CRYSTAL. — Bilorv ( talk ) 22:14, 26 May 2023 (UTC)

16.1 and 16.2 airing before 15.10 ?
Not only that, but unusual for a new series to start in spring. Link for the reference does not work for me (DDoS-nonsense). --Anton Sachs (talk) 13:15, 27 February 2022 (UTC)
 * Those are the recording dates.Cwmxii (talk) 07:59, 2 March 2022 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I see that now. Still quite early though, series 16 may be send next year. --Anton Sachs (talk) 11:10, 10 April 2022 (UTC)

xSP episodes are not explained.
Everywhere else, the episodes are one ahead of Wikipedia as always doing its weird thing again. So this is confusing. And it’s all caused by the “__xSP” episodes. Which could be argued to maybe be OK, if it was explained at the very least. … So… Can somebody add an line to the article, explaining that “xSP” business, or fix the numbering to reflect something that’s actually useful? — 2A0A:A546:AF8:1:A2AA:593A:8EA8:B29C (talk) 11:45, 10 February 2023 (UTC)
