These are not valid sources, which means that they cannot be used to write our in-universe articles. Normally, we would say that information from these sources are then allowed in the behind the scenes section.

But because we're splitting to a full page of behind-the-scenes stuff, there simply isn't any other place to put it.

Invalid source information may therefore not be used in any capacity whatsoever on any page within the larger category of category:dates.

This position is not up for debate. We will not in any way try to accommodate the narratives of these 20 or so licensed-but-invalid stories within our date pages. Of course, as licensed material, it's fine to mention the release dates of any BBC product on the BTS day of the year page. But you will not introduce any narrative material from these stories on any date page — day, month, year, decade or century.

I was suggesting that we put it in a behind-the-scenes section. I still fail to see the logic in completely eradicating "non-valid" sources is still an insane idea. Not putting them in the main section? Yeah, that makes quite a bit of sense. Completely eradicating it all together? A bit much.

Never the less, I apparently lost that discussion (by your decision, there were actually quite a few people who went to my side) so I suppose that I will have to move on to bigger and better things.
