The importance of having Saga Norén

[edit]

Probably it's worth noticing that in Italian, and therefore in Latin, Saga Norén sounds almost identical to Saga Norrena (Norse Saga) which I read quite as a declaration of script writer's intent. Michel — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.13.129.169 (talk) 22:19, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"The natural successor to The Killing"?

[edit]

There is a reviewer's quote shown at the top of the opening photo of this article - "The natural successor to The Killing"; I couldn't quite make out the reviewer's name (or publication?). The Tunnel (2016-2018) apparently follows some of the ideas of this series (I say "apparently" only because I've not seen The Bridge), and two other shows did as well (listed in article, neither of which I've seen). But, is The Bridge really a natural "successor" to The Killing (I haven't yet seen that either)? If so, how? It would be interesting to read a bit on that, if it's appropriate to include some mention of this in the article... Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.131.26.78 (talk) 11:14, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 16 June 2019

[edit]
The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: not moved. (non-admin closure) Steel1943 (talk) 23:44, 8 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

– Currently the two pages under this request disagree in form with The Bridge (Russian TV series), and the precedent set by the high-profile The Office (British TV series) and The Office (American TV series), as well as The X Factor (British TV series) and The X Factor (American TV series) and other reality TV formats. In this case, I propose deviating from WP:NCTV - as The Office and X Factor pages do - due to the closeness of the years in question and the countries of origin being their primary distinction. Per the general WP:NAMINGCRITERIA, this change would make the article titles more recognisable to non-experts, more natural for searching, a more precise disambiguation and more consistent with the articles linked above. (Note: previous move request based its rationale upon the inadequacy of the tile The Bridge (Danish/Swedish TV series), and did not raise the matter of the preferred form of disambiguation.) U-Mos (talk) 23:07, 16 June 2019 (UTC) --Relisting. — Newslinger talk 05:47, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Apologies, I observe that the current form of WP:NCTV does now allow for this form of disambiguation "when shows are distinct due to region, especially when used to distinguish regional versions of the same format/premise" (which certainly applies here), although the relevant section is currently under discussion. U-Mos (talk) 23:13, 16 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks Newslinger, I hadn't noticed that one. I don't see an issue with it remaining where it is, as 2005 disambiguates it clearly and is unlikely to be confused with either of these programmes - and doesn't share their format. A dab line at The Bridge (American TV series) can easily handle the distinction between the two US programmes. WP:NCTVUS indicates The Bridge (documentary TV series) as an alternative, if such a thing was desired. U-Mos (talk) 00:06, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - NCTV does indeed support your request for the American one, but not for the Scandinavian as that isn't a country adjective, which is why years are used. However, the American one cannot be used either as The Bridge (2005 TV series), while a stub, still exists and there is no reason to create ambiguity in a title. --Gonnym (talk) 12:25, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose as per Gonnym – while it's true that "by country" disambig. is "preferred" under NCTV whenever possible, there are situations where it can't be used (easily), and these examples are a couple of those: 1) it can't be used when the same title is used for two different TV shows from the same country (e.g. the 2005 and 2013 series), and 2) it can't be used easily for any TV shows which are bi-national or multi-national productions (e.g. the 2011 series). OTOH, "by country" disambig. can easily be used in the case of The Bridge (Russian TV series), so that one should stay where it is. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 13:36, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose – for all the reasons stated above. Gareth Griffith-Jones (contribs) (talk) 14:09, 25 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • Note The apposite section of NCTV quoted above discusses shows "distinct due to region", not "country". I don't think the fact that this programme has more than one country of origin is a reason to ignore that clear guidance entirely - the most literal application would be to move to The Bridge (Danish-Swedish TV series), I suppose, but my understanding is such forms are generally discouraged and the Scandinavian region gives a clear alternative with no drawback I can see. And WP:COMMONSENSE (on top of the naming criteria outlined above) is surely to in some way ensure consistent disambiguation for all the iterations of this format (i.e. either these two should move, or The Bridge (Russian TV series) should)? U-Mos (talk) 00:06, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
    • Oppose moving the Russian one. Also, please don't pick and choose the words of the guideline. See the beginning which clearly states: "Prefix the country of broadcast (adjective)" and "adjective" is linked to List of adjectival and demonymic forms for countries and nations. Again, while a consistent disambiguation is clearly preferred, usage of the same name in the same country or multi-national productions make it less optimal. --Gonnym (talk) 14:47, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
      • People seem to miss that WP:CONSISTENCY is simply one of the five criteria. But WP:RECOGNIZABILITY is another. And it has been shown on more than one occasion that "by country" disambig. is still preferred in cases like this – IOW, !voters have been going with WP:RECOGNIZABILITY over an "in-set" WP:CONSISTENCY, and I agree with that. Nobody is going to remember the year the Russian version premiered – but they will remember it's Russian! So leave that one where it is! Again, the only reason we're not moving the other 3 with "by year" disambig. to "by country" disambig. is because we are literally prevented from doing so in this case. --IJBall (contribs • talk) 16:31, 26 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
        • Apologies Gonnym, but as the regional distinction is met and it's not possible to have a literal disambiguation by country, there's no alternative to selecting which of the two to prioritise. We disagree on which, which is each of our prerogatives. IJBall, obviously I agree, as I proposed for these two pages to be moved instead - but I do believe number one priority in this case should be consistency between the iterations of the drama format.
