| | Posted: | | | | Battlestar Galactica Season 4 There is a change for the Episode list, removing BOLD and Capitalized episode titles as presented on the inside disk holder of the series. The change puts the format as Episode List 1. Title. Description 2. Title. Description etc. The change is adding numbers where none exist and adding the header of Episode list Here is the an image  What should the formatting be for the individual disk profiles? |

| | Posted: | | | | Here is the first sentence of the rule pertaining to Overviews: Quote:
Copy the overview from the back of the DVD case exactly as written, including capitalization of words exactly as shown on the back of the case. The case type for this is a Digipak (which is housed in a slip cover), which you show above. An argument can be made to remove bold from the overview, but not for changing the capitalization (IMO). I believe that once an episode list has been accepted that conforms to the rules (which the current one appears to do) that arbitrary changes should be rejected. --------------- | | | | Last edited: by scotthm |

| | Posted: | | | | It really depends on if this is the season set parent or disc level child profile.... from the TV Series rules...
Disc Level Profiles:
Episode synopses may be included in the overview, if present on either the cover or an included booklet. Enter them as printed, following the standard overview rules. If there are no episode synopses available in the release, you may add a brief self-written synopses, or one from the official website. Match the language of the overview and do not include "spoilers." | | | | Pete |

While the rule is specific to disc level profiles, why wouldn't we just use the same episode list/synopsis in the parent? In my opinion, they should match. | | | No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.

| | Posted: | | | | For disc level profiles....
So, since they are included on the enclosed material, they should follow the way they are printed.
In my example, they are listed without numbers, so the numbers should not be included. Bold or any other formatting should be included.
Now, if there were no "synopsis", then 1 could be written for disc level profiles, following the simple list format.
Am I understanding this correctly? | | | | Last edited: by CharlieM |
