Show description
[edit]I've been meaning to create the summary/synopsis/plot/premise of the show since before its release, but it seems that it gets reverted every single time. The first time I tried to add it, it was reverted when I didn't add an "official source" despite checking other wiki pages with synopses and noticed that there was no need to add references. The second time I added it, this time basing the description on and referencing the official website, it was reverted for "plagiarism". I'm really confused on what to do now, so are there any guidelines of any sort on writing descriptions that I don't know? I just want to help out with moving the page out of being a stub. If there any issues with sources, I always base them on official GMA sources (AND I've watched the show). I'll be creating a new summary again so this Talk page topic can be seen easier, but I'd like a reply if it is ever undone. Thanks. FrizzleLamb (talk) 02:08, 11 October 2022 (UTC)

- I didn't paste it from anywhere; I made sure to write it with my own words. Can you tell me which websites you assumed I got it from? FrizzleLamb (talk) 02:55, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- If it's alright with you, I'll remove the last part that "sounds like a marketing write up" and write the summary up to Episode 3 (where she meets Ibarra, another main character). Is that OK? I genuinely just want to help out on the page. FrizzleLamb (talk) 02:57, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- So you didn't copy and paste yet you added a reference which doesn't even back up the premise section? If you are claiming that you have used "your own words" then, original research isn't allowed either. Wikipedia isn't the site for you to create your own synopsis. I've seen previous editors who merely copied and pasted the premise so forgive me if I have confused you with those previous edits. How about you just leave it alone? Your edit is unreferenced and contains original research.TheHotwiki (talk) 03:01, 11 October 2022 (UTC)
- Does it count as original research if it's based on the episodes? (I made sure to watch the episodes before writing) I understand the issue, but seeing the page without any summary/premise feels odd to me. How or when can I add a synopsis, like with the other shows on the wiki? Can I at least create a short description with a reference to an article talking about the show?

Role of the Alferez
[edit]The role of the Alferez is played by Giovanni Baldisseri, not Jovit Moya. The only sources to validate this is to watch the show or look up the show's (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt22410944/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm) and the actor's (https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3640942/) IMDb pages. How do we work on this? iamdumdum (talk) 01:37, 07 November 2022 (UTC)

Split the List of Episodes into a separate Wiki article
[edit]Just a heads-up, Maria Clara at Ibarra [will] have 100 episodes. The 100th episode will air on February 17, 2023.
It's better to split the list of episodes into its own Wikipedia page. —ᜌᜓᜃᜒ (Yuki|雪亮) (talk | Contribs) 04:59, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- Where is your source? Also the article isn't even that long to be split up.TheHotwiki (talk) 08:53, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
- BTW, it's not yet confirmed to have precisely 100 episodes, but given that it is planned to end in February 2023, it's likely to have around an estimate of 100 episodes. But remember, this is subject to change. There are days in the Philippines where the usual evening teleseryes do not air because of special holidays. And about the separation -- it's not too long to be split into an article yet, it just seems big because the episode table takes up a lot of space. Maybe we can split at around 50 episodes? FrizzleLamb (talk) 03:57, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
- Even if it reaches 100 episodes, this article is still not long enough. The references are also mostly first party references like GMA Network.TheHotwiki (talk) 04:04, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
Third-party sources
[edit]I have several questions regarding the template message on the page's usage of first party sources. I'd like to help changing them in order to remove the message, but I'm not sure where to start. Which ones [under specific sections] can I replace with non-GMA Network sources (other than the Episodes section)? I added most of the sources in the page, but it might be difficult to remove some of them - for example, the cast's names, pre-release announcements, and several exclusive behind-the-scenes tidbits are directly taken from GMA's news pages. Is there a maximum number of first-party sources allowed on a wiki page? And would just finding another news outlet reposting the latter two I mentioned (pre-release, exclusive BTS) be all right? Thanks in advance. FrizzleLamb (talk) 10:57, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
- Have you seen how many first party reference in this article? If you do, there's your answer.TheHotwiki (talk) 13:58, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
- I don't think you properly read the rest of the questions I asked. Some of the links are exclusive articles so they're too valuable to remove from the page, thus I was asking if there's a maximum number of first-party sources allowed. And I asked if replacing them with another news source that simply reposted the topic is fine. You didn't need to be so condescending about it. FrizzleLamb (talk) 14:31, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
- This article is looking too fancruft at this point. If you could refrain it from making one, would help the article. Thank you.TheHotwiki (talk) 19:22, 22 November 2022 (UTC)
