| Do we have articles anywhere covering the live-action portion of the show which takes place between the two story segments? For example after [[Mr. Ratburn and the Special Someone]] and before [[The Feud]] it begins with [[London]] in the 2nd-grade class [[Miss Melo]] who just got married to someone named [[Patrick]] (just like Mr. Ratburn's spouse) and then [[Haruka]] writes a letter to him. He then arrives and he has a beard and says he is 27 years old and teaches in the Healey School in Somerville. | | Do we have articles anywhere covering the live-action portion of the show which takes place between the two story segments?

| :: I see questions online quite often like, "what episode has the word from us kids segment with _"? So, I suppose it might be useful to provide some kind of listing. Personally I don't think individual pages are necessary, but a brief synopsis of each could be plausible. PBS used to have a text description on the Arthur website for each episode through Season 12 or 13, I think, which could serve as a starting point.

| :::I don't really think "Word from Us Kids" pages are needed on here, as a lot of people tend to skip them, first of all (or maybe it just seems that way to me), and second of all, these segments usually aren't included on most prints of ''Arthur'' outside of PBS telecasts. Also, several countries like the UK or Australia (like on BBC or ABC2, for example) don't receive them, either. So, I don't really think it's necessary to cover such information on here. I personally don't really like or care for most of them, anyways, and I never have, even when I was younger. Anyways, those are just my thoughts on the subject. To everyone reading this, have a wonderful kind of day! -[[User:Arthur Read fan|Arthur Read fan]] ([[Message Wall:Arthur Read fan|Message Wall]]) 7:30, January 13, 2020 (UTC) (edited by Arthur Read fan 7:35, January 13, 2020 (UTC); edited by Arthur Read fan 23:30, January 26, 2020 (UTC)

| ::::I don't really like them either and I always skip them when they come on, but just because we don't like something doesn't mean it shouldn't get coverage on the wiki; if we did it that way, there would be absolutely no trace of "[[The Pageant Pickle]]" or "[[For Whom the Bell Tolls]]" anywhere on the site. The And Now a Word from Us Kids segments are absent from the PBS Kids website and are only found on certain online releases and TV broadcasts, but I think we could get info on each one. I think making a table would be best. Something like this: [[User:Scrooge200|Scrooge200]] ([[User talk:Scrooge200|talk]]) 19:25, January 13, 2020 (UTC)

| :::::Hmm... I guess something like that ''could'' work. Nothing ''too'' detailed, but just enough information where you could know about it. That is a good proposal. -[[User:Arthur Read fan|Arthur Read fan]] ([[Message Wall:Arthur Read fan|Message Wall]]) 10:51, January 14, 2020 (UTC); edited by Arthur Read fan 23:30, January 26, 2020 (UTC)

| ::::::Disclaimer regarding my previous note about the PBS descriptions on the website: I am aware of some descriptions that are actually NOT what aired with the episode. One such example being [[The Lousy Week]]. I think the description says something about kids creating their own disease, which is not at all what actually happens on the interstitial. They learn about mosquitoes instead. I'll keep an eye out for anything like this as we go forward. I have >95% of these segments recorded from PBS, so I can verify.[[User:PrettyCoolStairs|PrettyCoolStairs]] ([[User talk:PrettyCoolStairs|talk]]) 16:48, January 26, 2020 (UTC)

| :::::::A few clips are up on the PBS Kids website and they have notes saying which episode they're from, but some of them don't exactly seem right: it says that the segment after "[[Sue Ellen Gets Her Goose Cooked]]" is about writing poems.

| ::::::::Hmm... I don't know. Maybe someone should go through each one, and add information that way. I'm not going to do it, though; someone else will have to do it instead. However, I will say this: I have heard of some "Word From Us Kids" segments repeating in some episodes, like [[The Wheel Deal]]'s interstitial where Connor Gordon meets Marc Brown also airs in "Prunella's Special Edition" reruns since 2015 or so I hear. (Connor Gordon is the kid who created Lydia Fox in the "All Kids Can Character Contest" more than a decade ago.) I don't know if that's true or not, though, but I guess someone should find out, but it's not going to be me. -[[User:Arthur Read fan|Arthur Read fan]] ([[Message Wall:Arthur Read fan|Message Wall]]) 23:30, January 26, 2020 (UTC)

| :::::::::Yeah, but I don't have all of them, so I'll just do whatever I can find. [[User:Scrooge200|Scrooge200]] ([[User talk:Scrooge200|talk]]) 00:06, January 27, 2020 (UTC)

| ::::::::::The segment after "[[Sue Ellen Gets Her Goose Cooked]]" is in fact about poems; the class shows how to do classwork (writing poems) on a computer program. And it is true that the Connor Gordon segment has replaced the original interstitial after "[[Prunella's Special Edition]]". I think it used to be about kids having a book signing. Like I said, I have most of these saved on a hard drive, so I can help fill in any gaps if they are are not readily available online. (Just gotta find the time to do so.)--[[User:PrettyCoolStairs|PrettyCoolStairs]] ([[User talk:PrettyCoolStairs|talk]]) 02:24, January 27, 2020 (UTC)
