Technical specs: 2.35:1 aspect ratio

One user specifically, Favre1fan93, has revised this page several times to remove the 2.35:1 aspect ratio from the technical specs, citing "all that should be included is as I've formatted" and "per the documentation of Template:Infobox television. all that should be included is as I've formatted". First off, Template:Infobox television makes no mention of specifics to exclude, not to mention Wikipedia:Ignore all rules. The vast, vast majority of television show pages in Wikipedia include the aspect ratio in the technical specs. For reference, this is exactly how House of Cards (U.S. TV series) is formatted, noting the 2:1 aspect ratio. The fact that the show uses an unusual aspect ratio is worthy of noting, as solely mentioning the show is presented in UHDTV implies it's presented in 16:9, the near-ubiquitous aspect ratio of the format, which it isn't. --Shivertimbers433 (talk) 04:11, 16 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Should runtime be added to the episode list?

It looks like quite a few episodes have varying length. Should runtime be added? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:53, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Season 2 production codes

Per the United States Copyright Office (the source being used for the season 1 production numbers), the second season episodes were ordered out of production order. However, the season 2 table simply lists the codes in order. Discrepancies I've found have been:

"Region" is 207, not 203
"First Date" is 203, not 204
"The Dinner Party" is 204, not 205
"Door #3" is 205, not 207
"New York, I Love You" and "Thanksgiving" are both listed as 208.

I know I'm a bit late to the party (just finished watching it recently), but does anyone have any thoughts? Drovethrughosts (talk) 14:10, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think you can add those either as footnotes or as extras in the prod code sections. Master of None was presented as a Netflix show so I'm pretty sure Netflix would release the episodes in the order intended. If footnotes are too confusing as they are far removed from the episode table, you can list both in prod code sections like "203 (Netflix); 02007 (gov)" I've had to do that recently with Zak Storm as Netflix had the original production code order while Futon Critic / Discovery Family Channel (DFC) had its own numbering. Note the codes themselves at gov are not that consistent, some are 02007 while others are 208. It's like someone just wanted to get the episodes copyrighted regardless of what number was actually stamped on the work. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:44, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

What I'm getting at is we should change the production codes for season 2 to match the numbers in the copyright database, as that's what was done for season 1. For example, "Religion" is listed as having the production code of 203, but it was produced as 207 (per the source). I'm assuming whoever added the episode list for season 2 to the article just listed numerical codes but they didn't know otherwise. The problem is, two episodes are labeled "208". The episodes were definitely released as intended, but they were filmed in a different order per the copyright database. Either the codes get fixed (because season 2's is wrong) or we just dump it all together. Drovethrughosts (talk) 15:58, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, let me give it a shot. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 17:13, 29 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
