If it is light, please test it against a foreground colour of "000000" (black). The tool needs to say "YES" in the box for "WCAG 2 AAA Compliant" when you input the foreground and the background colour. You can generally make your colour compliant by adjusting the "Value (%)" fader in the middle box. 846: 535:
Removed needless, speculative (and disrespectful) "But they will be, due to Carlin's death" comment in regards to the S2 episodes that were not narrated by Ringo Starr for U.S. audiences. Not sourced, nor are U.S. narrations of these episodes even likely to exist (and if they do, I'd like to see the

I'd want you to make Thomas & Friends: The Complete 2nd Series in the US? Narrated by George Carlin, he narrates 26 episodes in the US? The episodes will be in order are; 1. Double Trouble, 2. A Cow on the Line, 3. Bertie's Chase, 4. Saved from Scrap, 5. Old Iron, 6. A New Friend for Thomas, 7.
640:
Somebody else mentioned promotional stills. I'd hate to screw up whatever Thomas fans found out, but how exactly do you know for sure that five stills was the amount that was released? Unless it was mentioned in another interview. I've seen stills from that episode on DVDs and etc in other releases
346:
My view on this is that it's a very minor point. I'd say that in terms of trivia, the first appearance of a character is worth noting, but the appearance or non-appearance of a character in a brief scene that doesn't really affect the plot either way isn't notable enough for inclusion. It's all a

Okay, I can't find evidence right now to support either way, but why do people insist on deleting the U.K. titles of the episodes? If anything, the U.S. titles have more justification to be deleted since Thomas and Friends is a U.K. that was brought to the U.S. So, please, can someone provide a

My main objection to this is that it is an extremely minor point which does not affect the plot. If we were to go through each of the four seasons and point out each individual discrepancy between the TV Series and Railway Series, well we'd be here all day. Also, this is an article about the TV
285:, but as I said I've left for now. If you want to take the time to point out all the discrepancies between the Railway Series and the TV Series, I suggest you make a fansite for it, because I can't for the life of me see how it has an appropriate place on Knowledge. 442:
Why do these sentences keep getting deleted?: Percy agrees that it's a shame. Gordon scoffs that it's all about a broken signalbox. James is very annoyed by the Spiteful Brakevan. Henry says the twins did well in the snow. All the engines agreed that it's not fair.
456:
And the reason... Because they are just plain superfluous. As it is, there are three paragraphs / 10 lines / 228 words of text before even getting to the episode notes. The detail above doesn't need to be gone into, to make the section longer still. The sentence

Superfluous edits include: Goofs, "first time we see X's angry face", appearances of non-character rolling stock, and other such additions. Superfluous comments such as these detract from the article significantly, and will be removed or reverted.

The counter-example used was "Whistles and Sneezes", from Season 1, which notes that the episode was an amalgamation of two stories from The Railway Series (Gordon's Whistle, and Henry's Sneeze). This is hardly a direct comparison. In the case of

This episode has stepped well and truly into edit war territory. First and foremost, I apologise for not taking this to the Talk page earlier, as I've (unfortunately) become used to editors who don't read the talk pages.

The main point of contention here is that a comment regarding Duck taking Thomas to the works, and this scene not being prtrayed in the TV series, should be added to this episode.
742: 354:
It was proven wrong in the end. That person on the forum was lying about Duck taking Thomas. But the Ringo Starr portrait and "Daisy/Daisy for Hire Trilogy" comments should stay.
