Talk:The World of David the Gnome

message: I changed the number of episodes because my freind bought the series and it was 32 episodes long. However I'm not sure if all of them were aired. Feel free to change it if you know. --The_stuart 22:36, 26 Sep 2004 (UTC)

message: I think a mentioning of the cartoon being influenced by Scandinavian mythology would be appropriate... JanderVK
:IIRC Redcaps, what David and his family appear to be, were a particulary visious bunch in the folklore. So if someone wants to put in a folklore origins section, that might want to be investigated. StarkeRealm 07:31, 2 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The article is currently claiming both, no doubt following the disagreement on this talk page - the first paragraph says 32, the box says 26. Any sources on this? -- Mithent 23:28, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  26 or 32? 

message: I have added much more to this article from the Spanish wikipedia article of "The world of David the Gnome". Unfortunatly I don't know much spanish, and I mainly translated what I could with the help of an online translator. Alot more needs to be translated. Acidburn24m 18:29, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I promise you, that in the last few minutes, the country of origin has changed from England to Spain, and Spain to England.  The country of origin is Spain, I don't know how someone would get the idea of England.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.173.195.17 (talk) 18:38, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Saying how the series ends has absolutely nothing to do with reception, which is a section that should be describing how the public and various critics recieved the show when it was initially released. It also spoils the ending for anyone who may remember this show from way back, decides to look it up (and maybe watch it, again), and is unlucky enough to glimpse the one liner on how the series ends. This is in no way "helpful". Also, stating that turning into a tree is a metaphor for death, without citing a source, is a personal idea, and is original research.
Actually, the entire "reception" section has nothing to do with the actual reception of the show by the public/critics. Its just a bunch of miscellaneous facts, and more personal ideas with no citations.
Still though, Im concerned only about this line. Im removing the line, again. If someone is going to put it back, then put it under a more apt section heading, cite a source for the metaphor, and put a spoiler warning below the section heading. Its only fair to those who dont want the end ruined for them.
