List of Black Lagoon episodes

 * Notified: Anime and manga WikiProject

I believe it no longer meets FL criteria due to lack of sourcing, weak episode summaries, and current structure. Airdates are sourced with cal.syoboi.jp which I doubt is reliable. DragonZero ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 01:50, 4 June 2013 (UTC)

Hmm, I'll check the sourcing and stuff later. I also want to bring up that the DVD cover may not justify WP:NFCC. DragonZero ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 07:55, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Took me a while, and I'm still not perfectly happy with everything about this list, but I think that demotion is no longer necessary at this time.  Good raise  07:17, 21 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Source 4 only has the starting date?
 * Same with source 5
 * Is there a source that the episode numbering is a continuation from the past seasons? DragonZero  ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 04:37, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Sources 4 and 5 provide a starting date and they let us know that the respective season aired every week on the same day.
 * The CDJapan sources provide episode numbers presumably taken from the respective DVD or Blu-ray Discs.  Good raise  09:07, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
 * About the cover, yes, technically it and many like it are in violation of WP:NFCC. However, this particular violation is so widespread and so widely tolerated that one little FLC/FLRC is not the place to resolve this inconsistency between guidelines and practice.  Holding a discussion, aiming to remove them all or to change NFCC accordingly, at a more central venue, WP:MCQ perhaps, or WP:VPP, would be a far more effective use of the community's time.

 * Oh I see, it was a burning question since I had to remove a DVD cover from a previous FL. Well my current issues are still the source for airdates, which I have no intention of pushing. Something I will push is that the media table structure would be more accessible if divided by volumes instead of episodes; plus the fact there is an empty blu-ray slot in Australisa which looks odd in the table. I'll see if I can get more views from the anime/manga wikiproject. DragonZero  ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 02:35, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Both, whether this manner of use of non-free media should be permissible, as well as whether every single air date needs a source even in situations like this, are questions I'd like to see answered by more than a handful of random FLC/FLRC participants. As for the table, the empty column could easily be removed if need be, but I don't see what advantage a by-volume organization would bring.   Good  raise  10:47, 28 July 2013 (UTC)

Comment nominated in JUNE, last comment in JULY, it's now OCTOBER, this clearly has no consensus for delisting. Suggest this is closed. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:34, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Yeah, ok. DragonZero  ( Talk  ·  Contribs ) 20:50, 3 October 2013 (UTC)
