Social Media as a Marketing Tool
The social media subsection is surprisingly short, given the significant role it played in promoting the show and engaging viewers. I want to discuss how social media was leverage to market Scandal, but I'm not sure if a new subsection for marketing should be added under the release section, or if the social media subsection should simply be expanded on. --Wikiedits32 (talk) 18:42, 4 April 2023 (UTC)


 * I expanded Social Media to discuss how social media helped Scandal become popular. Some of the links that I added were tagged as disambiguation links. Can someone please help me find and fix these errors? I'm not sure how to exactly. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. --Wikiedits32 (talk) 19:32, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

Requested move 12 June 2023

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. Most commenters agree hatnotes are sufficient disambiguation in this case. Station1 (talk) 21:00, 21 June 2023 (UTC)

– Not enough ambiguity, or subtle confusion between these two series. These pages shall be moved to their new places.  RM X Y  (talk) 11:45, 12 June 2023 (UTC) — Relisting. - 🔥𝑰𝒍𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝑭𝒍𝒂𝒎𝒆 (𝒕𝒂𝒍𝒌)🔥 13:26, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Scandal (TV series) → Scandal (American TV series)
 * The Scandal (TV series) → The Scandal (South Korean TV series)

Edit: Will also add "U.S." to the first title.  RM X Y  (talk) 14:28, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose Hatnotes and the Scandal disambiguation have handled this issue just fine. There is no cause or confusion to move either page.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 16:01, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose WP:SMALLDETAILS. There is sufficient difference between the titles as is. As says, hatnotes handle any remaining misunderstandings. See, for example: The Americans vs. Americans. —Joeyconnick (talk) 04:09, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment - What if people may refer to the South Korean series as just "Scandal"? Is there need to move that to "The Scandal (South Korean TV series)" and the U.S. one to "Scandal (U.S. TV series)"?  RM X Y  (talk) 14:28, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
 * They're more apt to refer to it in its local Korean title than in its English form, and that show's true title is much longer than the American show's.  Nate  • ( chatter ) 01:26, 14 June 2023 (UTC)

The discussion above is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.
 * Support the presence of absence of "The" isn't really distinguishing when it comes to media and partial disambiguation as they are normally interchangeable. At least the 1st one needs moving as relying on the absence doesn't generally indicate a distinct topic per WP:SMALLDETAILS. Yes when you have generic/original meanings and media its often appropriate similar to Battle of Maldon/The Battle of Maldon but it probably doesn't work here.  Crouch, Swale  ( talk ) 16:37, 14 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose. They're already disambiguated by the extra word in the title. A hatnote solves the potential issue just fine.  WP scatter  t/c 13:50, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Besides "The" being a sufficient disambiguator per WP:SMALLDETAILS, the title currently without "The" is not referred to as "The Scandal" in context, so contrary to this move request, there should be no reason to assume "The Scandal" refers to "Scandal (American TV series)".

Move discussion in progress
There is a move discussion in progress on Talk:Ironheart (TV series) which affects this page. Please participate on that page and not in this talk page section. Thank you. —RMCD bot 02:48, 17 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The move discussion for this page was closed a month ago to not move the page; please stop doing so. There was a clear consensus in not moving the page, and placing it in another move discussion (closed with the same result) can be disruptive. Thank you.
