User:SOTO/Forum Archive/The Panopticon/@comment-20607870-20161014211454 As I genuinely believe, please do correct me if I'm wrong, that one of my last posts was misunderstood, so this discussion has never happened as such.

I think we need to create a prefix for anything that can be viewed like televised Who, webcast and home video.

This would simplify the term in a great way and help the wiki determine a proper prefix.

For example the term audio is for both audios first broadcast on the radio and audios first released on CD, so shouldn't this apply for television as well?

As in anything that can be visually perceived through a television screen or possibly in some cases a computer screen. Though the first would be better as it's the first both literally of time wise and order of broadcast wise (in most cases).

With the forthcoming spin off which shall not be named for policy purposes, the first broadcast will be online and then on television. Surely this needs to be avoided as television in some cases holds higher status than a webcast.

I have no ideas as of yet for a whole term except onscreen or television, however I do believe that latter is more safisticated and understandable.

I thank you sincerely for taking time out to read my views and I wish everyone all the best and hope this can be considered and incorporated in some way.
