British series?[edit]

I noticed this article is giving the impression this is a British series, when it's an American series and the article should reflect that. Its production companies, Boardwalk Pictures, Maximum Effort, and FX Productions are all American and the series is made for the American cable network FX. This defines the country origin and makes it "American". Its subject matter or filming location has no bearing on that. It's an FX original and the article should reflect that, so only the FX information should be present in the infobox (such as premiere date and network); same goes for the categories, as it's not a Disney+ series. I wanted to post this before making any mass changes. Thanks. Drovethrughosts (talk) 12:40, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Makes sense, I guess state it as American. And remove Disney+ from Infobox and Categories with it remaining in the article’s content. DankJae 12:54, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for the quick reply. I know you're the major contributor to this article, would you opposed to using American English and date formats because the series is American (for consistency)? Drovethrughosts (talk) 13:00, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I agree it would feel really odd to write an American article in BE, in addition many international sources do use soccer for example (but not all), so I guess for consistency it would be fine as AE and mdy. Like I would agree aside location and story, that there is literally no British involvement production-wise which did shock me when researching. However, in terms of the term "soccer", I believe FX state "football" [1] as well as ABC [2] (sister network) and possibly some other corporate sources (be free to correct), so would "association football" be an alternative to use, or is definitely changing to "soccer" needed, as it will likely cause many disruptive edits.

Made a little start on AE, but as a Brit I am not fully aware of all changes, aside "soccer" discussed above, be free to change variant spelling elsewhere. DankJae 13:23, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Looks good to me. Thanks for the assistance! Drovethrughosts (talk) 13:37, 13 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Roster changes?"[edit]

Is that how the episode's describtion because I think most people will use "squad" and (probably) American and Canadian football leagues uses "roster" 2402:800:629C:5FA3:48CC:4672:DC60:207A (talk) 16:41, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Roster changes" is the term used in sources. [3][4]. DankJae 16:57, 5 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

RCG Productions NOT INVOLVED in Welcome To Wrexham[edit]

Before I change the InfoBox, I wanted to open a discussion on the talk page first. Apparently there is a mistaken belief that RCG Productions is involved with the Welcome To Wrexham Production which they are not, RCG Productions (Formerly RHC Productions) is a entertainment company jointly owned by Rob McElhenney, Glenn Howerton and Charlie Day to produce shows that the three partners are directly involved in and nothing else, Howerton and Day and not credited anywhere in the show's credits. Also, according to the shows end credits, the production companies involved are Boardwalk Pictures owned by Andrew Fried, More Better owned by McElhenney, Maximum Effort owned by Reynolds, 3 Arts Entertainment owned by talent agents/producers Erwin Stoff, Michael Rotenberg and Howard Klein as well as FX Productions a division The Walt Disney Company therefore I think it would be in the best interest of the accuracy of the article to remove RCG. Additionally, the listing in the IMDB is also incorrect and I will be working to correct that also. YborCityJohn (talk) 03:33, 2 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@YborCityJohn, I had initially removed RCG in an edit around the time I started this article after IP added it, and failing to find a source for it. Seems another IP re-added it in unsourced, so if there aren't any sources fully support removing it. Tbh the infobox has undergone a lot of unsourced changes, so all of it needs looking again.
