Talk:DVD Features

Back to Category

I think this category could become a "sticky wicket" if we don't set up some ground rules/definitions. What is considered a DVD features? Is it anything included on a commercially released Muppet/Henson DVD? If that is the case then are we going to list all the season 1 episodes of the Muppet Show in here (they were each a feature on the season 1 box set)? Will Muppet Treasure Island and The Muppet Movie be categorized here too as they are the main feature on their respective DVDs? If we start listing every Wiki article of something that can be found on DVD this category will become out of control, unmanageable and pointless.

Now if we say is it just "bonus features"? Then what is a bonus feature? According to the packaging and product specs Episode 103: Let the Water Run was a bonus feature on Where It All Began. Will we categorize each specific Fraggle Rock Animated episodes that were bonuses on the later Fraggle DVDs (along with the other DVD bonus episodes). Muppet Classic Theater and The Christmas Toy were bonus features on UK DVDs, they would go here too, right? The several "bonus" skits included the Sesame DVDs, do they get listed here? And the two bonus Ed Sullivan Skits on the Muppets Magic from the Ed Sullivan Show, they would be bonus material. Plus some songs (when a sing-along feature or jump-to-a-song feature is present) are listed as bonus features sometimes. Once you say "DVD feature" you open up a big can of worms that soon so much could technically be listed here.

I think we should either limit this to things produced specifically for DVDs, we should set up a very clear definition of what is a DVD feature, or we should just scrap the whole thing. We have pages set up for each specific DVD title (or will) and those can have the links to what's on them, but this category potentially could just get out of hand as "any material on a DVD" is just so broad and only growing (even if you say Bonus Material, that still has potential problems). So before I start going around adding/editing things to be categorized here, what should (or should not) be listed as a "DVD feature"? -- BradFraggle 22:45, 25 January 2006 (UTC)

Actually, I think this is a bad idea for a category all together. Most of what can be listed here can just be talked about on the page for the DVD that the feature appears on. Unless it's a fully produced documentary or something like that. -- Scarecroe 17:24, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
I agree unless it was produced just for the DVD there is no need to group things as DVD and non-DVD. -- BradFraggle 19:22, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
