Edits to List of Rescue 911 episodes
I noticed you have been making a lot of edits to the segment locations on the List of Rescue 911 episodes page. The locations are there to help people identify the segments and not necessarily for encyclopedic reference on the events themselves, so for the purposes of an episode guide, the locations listed should match the locations William Shatner specifies at the beginning of the segment. I think it's fine to give a specific city when Shatner only gives a vague location (for example, listing Novato, CA as the location for "Blind Hero" when Shatner says it takes place in "northern California"). However, for a segment like "Dangling Skier" where Shatner gives the location as "near...Ogden, UT" when the event technically happened in Eden, UT, the location should still be listed as Ogden so that the person using the guide immediately knows they have the correct segment.

Also, segment titles should not be changed or added without a reliable source. Reliable sources would be official TV listings or news articles about the segments where the segment title is given. Youtube is not a reliable source; some of the video titles on there are made up by the people who uploaded them and are not the official titles. -Allgood2000 (talk) 19:55, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

My apologies for making so many edits to the "List of Rescue 911 episodes" page. I want people to know where these incidents are located on Google Street View, but I just don't understand what was inappropriate about my edits. Can you explain this matter and give me some helpful guidance on how I can appropriately identify locations of Rescue 911 incidents? For example, should I say "Location of incident" or "Location of person's house"? Thank you so much! GeorgePahno (talk) 20:36, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
