List of Hidamari Sketch episodes
Appears to have everything an episode list should.--SeizureDog 22:24, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Conditional Oppose: I'm confused about the dates. The right-hand column doesn't have a title, but one supposes it's the "Original air date" referred to in the other column heading.  And then each episode title has a date next to it, with no explanation of what those are.  Plus, the wikilinks (autoformatting) around the second dates I mentioned are unnecessary, since they aren't full dates and don't "deepen readers' understanding of a topic". -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs)  04:10, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Right hand column is airdates, note the /. This is the same format used by FL List of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya episodes. The titles and airdates header are not seperated into seperate columns as that would cause an additional, redundant sortlist (at least this is my guess to the logic). Each episode has a date next to it as they are actual parts of the titles. It represents the in-universe time that the episode takes place.--SeizureDog 04:53, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Gotcha. So I see the point of the two dates - thanks for the explanation.  I'm sure that's spelled out in the article about the series, but perhaps the lede could be more explicit? Also, since wikilinks are "used when they add something to the article", wikilinking the date in the title doesn't make much sense.  Nor any wikilinking of part of a title (as in "Indian" in the episode named "June 17: Another Indian"). -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs)  23:48, 17 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, the Indian link is simply there to clear up confusion between India Indians and Native American Indians.--SeizureDog (talk) 09:05, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * This problem can now be sorted with  (all the gritty is at Help:Sorting), so you can separate the header cells. Circeus (talk) 03:52, 24 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose
 * The special lack any sort of plot summary and looks like a botched merge. Something about how it integrate in the series chronology would be a good idea.
 * should be applied were relevant.
