Ran into a bit of head scratcher here while I was working on the Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color TV page. I was looking around for info on it and it seems that this series has been around for a long time, renamed, and shifted channels over the decades. Apparently it's had 35 SEASONS, meaning it's been running off-and-on for 35 years! And that isn't counting the reruns as it's been retitled and doing reruns on the Disney Channel right now.

I had no idea anything has been around on TV that long. Should we break it up by the title name changes? It began as "Disneyland" (1944-58), "Walt Disney Presents" (1958-61), "Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color" (1961-69), "The Wonderful World of Disney" (1969-79), "Walt Disney" (1979-83), etc., etc.; and under that format, simply cover each of those season years?

Or should we simply make ONE page with the entire 35 season run, referencing all of the name changes it has undergone? IMDb seems to have gone that route; they have it under the Walt Disney's Wonderful World of Color title but I dunno if you wanna do the same or what? We may need some sort of more complex method of writing down the various season title name changes than simply "Aliases" in that case as it would just appear as one continuous block of text. Can we insert like BULLETS or something in that Aliases Section to differeniate between the names?

Speaking of that, I have been thinking that it might not be such a bad idea to be able to insert bullets in the info text boxes when dealing with multiple entries. The creators, principal actors and stuff, I don't think it matters too much if we use commas to break them up; but in some rare cases--like M*A*S*H which has like multiple spin-offs of three or more might look better if we could break them up.
