Links to the new ITV production logos.
I don't think it's reasonable to link the ITV articles to the production logos now if they are not created yet and still on the pages themselves. Camenati (talk) 15:51, 26 September 2022 (UTC)
- Oh, sorry Camenati. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 19:08, 26 September 2022 (UTC)

- Oh sorry Logohub, i've just now logged in as Michael Kenchington. No hard feelings. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 14:36, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
- I'd assume you have login problems due to the website name change. So are you keeping the "Michael Kenchington" name then? Logohub (talk) 14:37, 29 September 2022 (UTC)
- Yes i certainly am Logohub. Once again, no hard feelings. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 15:00, 29 September 2022 (UTC)

Central Production 1988 animated endcap
Hi Logohub, did you know that the shortlived Central Production animated endcap with the Central Cake was first shown in Spring 1988 and lasted until 1st September 1989, which was dropped in favour of a 1989 Central for ITV endcap?
The 1988 Central animated endcap exists as both filmed and videotaped versions, with "CENTRAL PRODUCTION" being shown at the end of Central programmes from 1988 to 1989 like Family Fortunes, Bullseye, Blockbusters, God, The Universe and Everything Else, original 1989 airings of Huxley Pig (Season 1 only) and Bangers and Mash, among others, a version with just "CENTRAL" being shown on programmes not made by Central and on imports, another version with the words "A CENTRAL PRODUCTION FOR CHANNEL FOUR" being shown on Central programmes made for Channel 4 (according to the TVARK Facebook page), and another version with the words "A ZENITH PRODUCTION FOR CENTRAL" which was shown on Inspector Morse from 1989. There's also a still version of the 1988 animated Central endcap which was shown on Drama airings and 1997 UK Gold airings of some episodes of Auf Wiedersehen, Pet, plastering the 1983 Central Moon endcap.
Also, the 1988 Central animated endcap appears at the end of New Faces of '88, see here (at around 8:43): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMxyUczAfXE
I like this 1988 Central animated endcap with the Central Cake logo, looks great anyway. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 13:45, 30 September 2022 (UTC)
Hi
I want to start opposing the new AVID RfC, because they liked to be in risk of splitting, but allow minor name changes. --RSX-798 (talk) 06:29, 31 January 2023 (UTC)
Suggestion regarding Availability example additions
Hi Michael Kenchington, while we appreciate your additions to Availability examples for logos such as Tempo Video, I would like to suggest limiting the the number of Availability examples that you add to articles, as large amounts of listed examples on pages, especially with logos that appeared on a large number of releases such as the aforementioned Tempo Video logo, may make the section overwhelming or otherwise difficult for readers to read through. I would personally suggest limiting listed examples to around five to seven instances per Availability section, and if the logo appeared on more releases than that amount, then you can also add "among many other releases" or a similar phrase at the end of each Availability section. If you have any questions regarding this suggestion, feel free to contact me or another staff member. Thank you! HibiscusCrown20 (talk) 15:30, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
- Oops, sorry. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 15:32, 25 June 2023 (UTC)
ITV endcaps information
When did ITV affiliates stop using endcaps at the end of US and other imported programmes? I'd say around 1999. CrazySpruiker2001 (talk) 11:36, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
- 1999? I don't know, CrazySpruiker2001, sorry. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 11:39, 30 September 2023 (UTC)
Reason of minor edits
I have seen a lot of your edits consisting of changing minor aspects of an article by rewording a phrase in the Availability section, among other small edits. Is there any particular reason why you have done these changes and that "appears" is preferred instead of "can be seen"? The sentences work either way and avoid repetition. Can you also explain why you tend to edit recently changed articles in particular? Camenati (talk) 06:51, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
- Well, i thought it would make a lot more sense IMO. Also, no hard feelings Camenati. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 15:02, 28 February 2024 (UTC)
- I have heard of a complaint from an admin regarding your multiple minor edits and I would like to remind you to please make a valid point as to why you are making these edits. Although some of them do make sense, others like this one are generally unnecessary as they are either simply rewording sentences and words where the structure of these articles feel repetitive or does not need extra details. Describing the changes you made and why they are done in the edit summary is necessary in minor edits like these. Thank you. Camenati (talk) 23:16, 6 March 2024 (UTC)
- You have been warned again for this behavior. Afraid to do this, but administrative action may be taken against your account if you continue to make unreasonably redundant edits that may lower the quality of an article's grammar. Camenati (talk) 02:37, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Whoa, sorry. I've also got permanently banned from the TSCelebs forums four years ago, because i kept asking for for requests with a low post count such as either about Jackie Long (Channel 4 News) or Emma Crosby (Sky News), and that was a stupid thing to do. I apologise for that as well Camenati. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 07:13, 14 March 2024 (UTC)
- Looking back at these warnings and reevaluating them, I'd like to apologize for issuing them to you. Such rules are unwritten and warning someone they could be blocked because of minor edits that are subjectively judged as "redundant" is not what I think is the right way to handle this situation among you and other users taking note of your additions in these articles. A word of advice and criticism works best when dealing with these kinds of edits instead of labelling them as bad faith edits that could result in a ban. In the end, your contributions to those pages aren't bad and not even rule violators, but like what me and other users have told from your edits, revise sentences with clarity and avoid repeating synonymous words that could degrade the article's grammar. Camenati (talk) 00:26, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks Camenati, i do think terms like "is seen", "was seen", "intact" and/or "preserved" are better IMO. --Michael Kenchington (talk) 04:04, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
