Hi there. The Wikipedia page on external links says they should not normally be placed in the body of an article. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_links) Also, I'm not sure why you are capitalizing Shudder, as, to my knowledge, streaming platforms are never capitalized here. (See pages for Netflix, Hulu, HBO Go, etc. for examples.) Is there a loophole or stated policy regarding either of these that I'm overlooking? Please let me know. If it can't be resolved, we should call in a moderator for help. Regards. 108.185.40.27 (talk) 10:13, 31 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi! I understand the use of not normally as we prefer you to use wikipedia pages whenever possible, but if the individual in question doesn't have one, I think that's a case that warrants a link to point out who they are. Also, in the pages you showed me the streaming services are capitalized so not sure what you mean? I'd prefer not to bother the moderators so hopefully we can get this sorted out, thank you!


 * Ah, I'm sorry. I meant italicized, not capitalized. My bad. Streaming platforms shouldn't be italicized. As for the linking, it seems Wikipedia's policies are somewhat fuzzy, which is why I was hoping a moderator could help clarify that one. One other thing I forgot to mention is that film titles are always italicized. Even in a table, I believe.108.185.40.27 (talk) 09:13, 2 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Okay that makes sense, if other pages aren't doing it than "Shudder" shouldn't be italicized. I just thought it looked good, but that seems like a very clear rule. At the end of the day though, in terms of that one non-wikipedia link in the body, the point of this award is to highlight these horror fan sites, which I believe isn't done properly without any sort of link to them. I did notice the lack of italicization of some films in the body though, which is more so my mistake than me doing anything purposeful. Yet, in terms of the tables, if you think they should be italicized, I have no issue with that.


 * Yeah, I'd say definitely italicize the film titles in the table. I know it's tedious to do, though, so I can do it, if you want.108.185.40.27 (talk) 09:39, 4 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Not a problem, I want the page to look professional, so I'll do whatever takes. I italicized all the movies in the tables, and then I went back and made sure all the "Shudder"s were italicized and other little edits for consistency. Thank you!

When adding links to material on external sites, as you did to List of The Adventures of Pete & Pete episodes, please ensure that the external site is not violating the creator's copyright. Linking to websites that display copyrighted works is acceptable as long as the website's operator has created or licensed the work. Knowingly directing others to a site that violates copyright may be considered contributory infringement. This is particularly relevant when linking to sites such as YouTube or Sci-Hub, where due care should be taken to avoid linking to material that violates its creator's copyright. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you believe the linked site is not violating copyright with respect to the material, then you should do one of the following:
 * If the linked site is the copyright holder, leave a message explaining the details on the article Talk page;
 * If a note on the linked site credibly claims permission to host the material, or a note on the copyright holder's site grants such permission, leave a note on the article Talk page with a link to where we can find that note;
 * If you are the copyright holder or the external site administrator, adjust the linked site to indicate permission as above and leave a note on the article Talk page;

If the material is available on a different site that satisfies one of the above conditions, link to that site instead. — Diannaa (talk) 20:09, 23 July 2023 (UTC)
