Diffrent versions

Does the Italian vs. English diffrences belong here? The series is broadcasted in other languages, where there are yet other names for places etc.

Considering that winx club is produced by a Italian Animation company, I believe mentioning the Italian/English differences would be a sign of respect the originators of this animated series. Should the Winx Club article ever be expanded to include dicrepancies from some other language, then we should encourage authors to re-create the article under the various other languages that Wikipedia offers--Kevin586 14:49, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

Editing

Deleting content

Thecleanerand, please stop edit warring without getting consensus for your deletions... Also, please read the note: "This section is for the original casts, not for dubs. Seasons 1-4 were animated to match the Italian voices, while 5-6 and the specials were done to match the Hollywood voices. Any third-party dubs, including 4Kids, are not original and do not belong in this section." There were other dubs that "created their own localized version of the show" too, like the German dub that had a completely new opening song and edits, but these are not the original casts. The original was just the Italian version for 2004-2009, then after the show became Italian-American, the page can start to mention that American information.

I see your point, but why not include the Cinélume/RAI English dub though? That's the official English dub for seasons 1-4. It's not really third-party as 4Kids, considering Rainbow wrote the translated script in-house and was Cinélume's client. The dub is used on the official English YouTube channel and streaming services. And finally, being the English Wikipedia, it's also a place where English speaking fans who grew up with one of the English dubs go to. I think it makes sense to list the Cinélume cast (and maybe even the 4Kids cast due to the great impact of the dub in English speaking regions) at least somewhere.

The German dub wasn't a localization; all it did was change the opening, not the actual content of the show. How can I get a consensus from people who don't have a clue nor care to get one? The fact that you people don't even know the difference between a straight dub and a localization (a la 4Kids or Saban) clearly shows you don't have the right to judge. I'm not edit warring, everyone else is treating this website like their own personal blog without any consideration for anyone else.Thecleanerand (talk) 17:30, 19 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

All third-party dubs/localizations (doesn't matter what) aren't the original version of the show and don't need more than a brief mention. Please don't keep edit-warring to add more, which violates WP:WEIGHT by focusing on only one non-original version and not any of the others. The original was just the Italian version for 2004-2009, then after the show became Italian-American, the page can start to mention that American information.

Reboot

Since it is now clearly said to be a reboot series as the sneak peek calls it a brand new series rather than Season 9 (Season 9 is what it was originally said to be back when it was first announced in late 2020. They later said it is a reboot in late 2021 and have been calling it a reboot since but at the time it wasn't 100% clear that it was really a reboot series and not just another soft reboot), shouldn't we make a separate Winx Club (2025 TV series) page?91.92.103.87 (talk) 09:57, 30 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
