early comments[edit]

Perhaps add a page for the sitcom? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.59.91.123 (talk • contribs)

The page is there except the I of Improvement is capitalized. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.246.227.50 (talk • contribs)

I think if you type home improvement, it should lead straight to the disambiguation page —Preceding unsigned comment added by 63.215.29.200 (talk) 23:23, 2 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia Section[edit]

Added a trivia section and moved the stuff about TV shows into it from the introduction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.134.61.255 (talk) 22:06, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lists of trivia should be avoided. Please see Wikipedia:Trivia sections. Thanks, Pdcook (talk) 14:14, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You don't need permission to link to Wikipedia - go for it. However, it is not appropriate for this article to link to your site unless it would add to the article - see WP:ELNO. --Alynna (talk) 13:45, 7 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Both articles describe the same subject, and have largely similar content. —CrafterNova ^{[ TALK ] [ CONT ]} 09:44, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, as these are distinct topics warranting separate coverage: renovation is about more than homes, and include maintenance as well as improvement. Klbrain (talk) 21:50, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, as renovation can be renovations to other buildings and ideas besides homes. This is prevalent in the article as it also discusses ideas of community renovation and commercial renovations. Hansen.lindsey15 (talk) 13:44, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose per Oppose comments above. Libcub (talk) 04:10, 1 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
