New URL for beautyandthebeast-tv.com

In 2012, the Chandler Beauty and the Beast website which hosted the BatB Winterfests, interviews and much of the fandom's history was moves to a new url. if you come across a link using the old URL: www.beautyandthebeast-tv.com, replace that portion of the old link with www.batbwfol.com The links should then work using the new domain name.--MeeDee 05:55, 9 March 2012 (UTC)

Change page name

I propose changing the title of this page to "Beauty and the Beast (1987)." --MPH (talk) 15:51, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

I'm agree. It's much more practical and error-free evidence of what exact series the page is -- Ellakbhesse (talk) 16:49, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

Is there a disamb page set up for the generic search Beauty and the Beast? Because we could tie the various franchises into itMeeDee (talk) 18:14, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

This page MeeDee? -- Ellakbhesse (talk) 18:49, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
I see that "Beauty and the Beast (2017)" and "Beauty & the Beast (CW)" refer to the same show. Do we want to disambiguate the BatBs by date? By platform? --MPH (talk) 22:57, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
It would be good to edit the disambiguation page, separate by decade what you think? -- Ellakbhesse (talk) 23:55, 24 September 2021 (UTC)
MPH, the CW and 2017 is not the same show. The first is the series and de second the Disney live-action -- Ellakbhesse (talk) 23:58, 24 September 2021 (UTC)

Plan?

How about this? I cribbed it from Wikipedia. It separates in a clear way, and offers a good path forward for other fandoms of the same name.

I don't think following Wikipedia is our best yardstick. for example, our Disney movies page is not just made for a single movie as they are a duology and also have remakes. I had edited the disambiguation page without changing redirect page titles -- Ellakbhesse (talk) 13:50, 25 September 2021 (UTC)

Does anyone have any ways to go forward on this? MPH 17:04, 29 January 2023 (UTC)

My suggestion:

  • Beauty and the Beast (CBS TV Series)
  • Beauty and the Beast (CW TV Series)
  • Beauty and the Beast (Disney Films)

JoeyW, I like your proposal. How do others feel? MPH 01:15, 13 June 2023 (UTC)
