As far as I can tell there is nothing wrong with adding information about physical releases in the notes section of such, yet, this person tssdl disagrees?

Am I in the wrong here? I don't get why it would be a problem...

Hello! I'm not an expert on this but notes only should be used to add relevant information. In case of a physical release, with only the word VHS should be enough (no icons or runtime). You can find more information here: https://www.themoviedb.org/bible/movie/59f3b16d9251414f20000009#59f73d3c9251416e71000014

So your saying that different runtimes are irrelevant? Catalog numbers for said release are irrelevant? (no need for reference points I guess?) Distributers are irrelevant? (Isn't that the same as TV channel?)

WHY?

Please explain to me how irrelevant any of the information is...

It's never a good idea to go on with this edits when a moderator deleted it, you've got the link to the rules .I don't think that catalog numbers should be added there

Is there a reasoning behind your opinion? Just curious why you think the catalog numbers are irrelevant to the specific physical releases.

Not sure how to interpret the first part of what you wrote. Which mod deleted what? Link to rules? There is only one rule for this field; "The note should be in English and use appropriate capitalization." Followed by suggesting to add relevant information relating to the release and a list of some relevant things.

Yes, the one rule.

I get it.

Do you?

Can you read? It can be used to add relevant info relating to the release:

A festival e.g. Toronto International Film Festival
A city (for premieres and limited releases)
The physical release format (VHS, DVD and/or Blu-ray)
A special edition e.g. Blu-ray - Collector's Edition
A TV channel e.g. Hallmark Channel
The feature film a short film screened in theater was paired with
The streaming network if it's a digital only release e.g. Netflix

So, how I read it, is thusly; It is permissible to add affordable evidence pertinent to the release:

  • Festivals
  • premeires and such
  • format
  • edition
  • distributer
  • additional features
  • redundant (same as distributer)
