welcome back
I find it so very intriguing how you would argue against small character articles so fiercely yet you make some? Munchvtec (talk) 01:28, January 8, 2017 (UTC)

Yo
Really good to see you again. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110904041913/messaging/images/1/1c/Emoticon_yes.png Are there any other novels that you've been reading as of late? 01:44, January 8, 2017 (UTC)

Just today I visited your user page and wondered where you'd gone off to. Nice to see you're back with us. :) • Seelentau 愛 議 01:55, January 8, 2017 (UTC)

Retired property
Please don't retire that property. It's actually more useful, from a data POV, to have that separate. The change back to it was deliberate. — FishTank (wall) 17:01, January 30, 2019 (UTC)

Precisely because it is a more specific property. It's rare that one would compare apples and oranges in the same way. Release, by itself, can mean many things in an era of streaming and printed publication. If I were starting out the whole system, I'd call it "premiere" or "debut" if the point was to keep multiple types of media distribution together. Since the distribution systems are entirely different processes with different rates of international rollout, it does indeed make sense to be different properties. That way it's unambiguous which distribution channel is meant. It's not "saving bytes" to have two different properties, so there's not a structural resource issue. If you have query tables that merge these two properties together, though, I'd like to see them. — FishTank (wall) 14:42, January 31, 2019 (UTC)
