Help me!

[edit]

Helped Please help me with... Hello! It seems my IP address likes to change around a lot, but I wrote this question in the Teahouse and I didn't get an answer to my follow-up question, and now it's archived. I figured I probably can't post the same question there multiple times so I thought I would try putting it here. I have copy-pasted my question below for convenience:

Hello! I have edited Wikipedia a couple times in the past for minor changes (typos, categories etc.). I have just now added an external reference for the first time, and I changed some wording around. Have I done a good job, and is there anything I did wrong or could improve? Thanks in advance. This is the page I have edited: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Secret_Life_of_Boys&oldid=1313508196

Hello, I've found a couple of potential citations but I'm not sure which ones to add. There's not really any second-hand articles on the subject. To be honest I'm not even sure it meets notability criteria, but since it's a bbc show I figured it does. Here's the few links I could find:
It has won a Children's Bafta and 2 Broadcast Digital Awards (2017 and 2019). There's a Kidscreen article I can't access. There's this page by the production company. Also there's the portfolio website of the composer which confirms his role. Plus there's a blog post by the lead designer, not sure I'm allowed to link to that but it has a couple useful screenshots.
It's also distributed on ABC iPlayer and RTÉ Player, should I add those to the external links section?
Please tell me which (if any!) of these citations I should add. Thanks! 51.37.88.62 (talk) 14:19, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You can avoid the IP-hopping issue by creating an account. That's not mandatory, but we recommend that you do, as it also enables a number of other tools which you may find useful, not least to keep track of your editing history, and to gain access to paywalled sources.
You may ask questions at The Teahouse as often as you feel the need.
Your edits look OK to me.
You can mention each of those awards, and use the relevant links to cite them. The production company can be cited if there's something specific to cite, otherwise make it an external link. Blogs generally should not be cited, but again might be acceptable as an external link. You can cite the composer if there's a need to prove his involvement, but an independent source would be better if one is available.
Each of these decisions is a matter of judgement; if ever you're not sure, cite such things and see if you get any pushback.

Thanks! I'm not sure where I should list the awards, should I put them in the summary at the top of the page, or should I add a "reception" section and put them there? 51.37.88.62 (talk) 15:16, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I would do the latter. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 15:28, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
I've added an Awards section. I noticed a few similar pages have fancy awards tables (i.e. That's So Raven), I couldn't be bothered figuring that out at the moment, but I might have another shot at it later. Thanks for all the help! 51.37.88.62 (talk) 17:00, 1 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
