@NacreousPuma855 Please read the guideline WP:CITEONE " If the authoritative sources are not controversial, they should generally be preferred. For example, a company's own website is probably authoritative for an uncontroversial fact like where its headquarters is located, so newspaper articles need not be cited on that point."
And WP:AMAZON "As a reliable source: check Sometimes. This website is usually used for past or upcoming media release dates." And the previous discussion here:Talk:Merlin (2008 TV series)#c-YodaYogaYogurt154-20240908152100-Newsjunkie-20240904032100 Note the comment : "the info is legitimate. word it in a way that is neutral." newsjunkie (talk) 17:30, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@NacreousPuma855I don't think the Amazon discussion really applies to the first reference at all as it's an official website. I think that at least should be able to stay with the primary source tag that was added. (And ideally one could also wait a few days to see if there is any more input regarding both references before removing again) newsjunkie (talk) 22:38, 2 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I'm thinking about rewriting most of the History section soon. If I do, I'll make sure to include it. As of now, it's perfectly fine in the Broadcast section in my opinion. SleepyRedHair (talk) 20:38, 9 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
