List of One Tree Hill episodes
The list is well formatted, and easily accessable for changes. Links are provided to seasonal pages for expanded information, and individual episode pages where necessary. Information that needs to be cited is. The lead paragraph may need some work which can be adressed her if needed. Despite season five still airing having future episodes symbolizes the incompleteness of the show rather than the list itself and episodes are only added once they appear on the shows official site, one week before broadcast. The list is also simular to List of Smallville episodes and List of The Simpsons episodes Russell [ Talk ] 18:57, 6 March 2008 (UTC)

 * Hahaha! That intro looks word-for-word very much like the one I wrote for the DVD releases page of One Tree Hill. So I can't find fault with it at all! :P -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 19:02, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Season three's light blue colour is too white. You can hardly tell it's there
 * Im unsure what other blue to use, would you be able to suggest one ? Russell [ Talk ] 13:45, 9 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Maybe baby blue or Carolina Blue (color). Take a look at the article Blue. There's a template at the bottom with all the shades of blue, and if you click on those links, a lot of those have shadings, too. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 04:26, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I have changed it to baby blue, what do people think ? Russell [ Talk ] 19:36, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * :) -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 21:27, 16 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment I think the episode numbers should be done along the lines of "23-101" rather than 23(1). -- Scorpion0422 05:05, 9 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Do people prefer (1) or "-201". Smallville uses brackets and that was promoted to FL. I personally favour the brackets but what do others think?

I prefer:

 * I tried this is preview mode, and it made the page look messyRussell [ Talk ] 19:36, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * In what way? It shouldn't, because episode list renders it correctly. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 20:25, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I felt that the table looks weird when the rows become twice the size Russell [ Talk ] 21:19, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
 * OK, well it's not a dealbreaker.
 * Support - By the way, is the "aka" of ep. 5 of season 1 official, or just what fans call it? -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 21:27, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
 * The CW's site uses one name, and the DVD uses the other Russell [ Talk ] 23:26, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I would reference both titles independently then, as well as having ref [20] included in the header. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 06:29, 18 March 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment First, I want to say that I am in favor of the Matthew's design; season and series #'s should be in diferent columns. If you want to leave it as is, then I'd like to see season # first with the series # in brackets. The reason is that "The Same Deep Water as You", for example, is more popular as the first episode of season 4, then 68th overall episode. Also, I don't prefer coloring every other row in the tables, it looks like a list from a fan site, rather than an encyclopedia. I'd suggest to use shades closer to white if you want to keep coloring every other row. For example, for season one, it may be better if a light grey be used instead of orange. -- Crzycheetah 00:15, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Like he said in the nomination proposal though, List of Smallville episodes and List of The Simpsons episodes, which is what he based this on, have all those rainbow colours. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 06:29, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I know, but that only explains why he did that. It doesn't change my view that coloring every other row with bright colors looks childish and unprofessional.-- Crzycheetah 06:35, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * True, and WP:OSE and WP:PRETTY make good arguments why it should be changed. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 16:21, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I just think that all LoE@Wiki should have similar design/format and be consistent with each other. After a quick glance, only Simpson's lists, Smallville's, and this one use this coloring. Lost's LoE uses gray and white which doesn't hurt my eyes as much as those bright colors used here.-- Crzycheetah 19:04, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Just a small note about the colouring used on the Simpsons list, the colours are based on the colour of the DVD set for that season. -- Scorpion0422 03:56, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * To be honest, it does look like a page from Skittleopedia though. Perhaps it might work with simply the table headers coloured in, and remove the alternate shading for each episode. (And I mean One Tree Hill here, although I don't thnk it would be detremental to the functionality of the Simpsons one either.) -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 05:45, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * Well the colors were meant to represent the DVD colours. would you suggest alternitive grey like Lost, if so which gery would you suggest?Russell [ Talk ] 22:37, 22 March 2008 (UTC)
 * I think that simply shading the headers would be acceptable, but using the pastelly shadings rather than those bright ones. I've just nominated List of 7th Heaven episodes and that's how I've done it. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 04:51, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
