Talk:The Cartridge Family

message: People keep adding that the Sky One banning of this episode had something to do with the 1996 Dunblane massacre. I haven't been able to find a source for this, though - the official Sky One statement at the time simply said the episode content was 'too strong'. Besides, Dunblane was over a year and a half ago by then, and by the time it was eventually shown on Sky it was almost ten years ago. It doesn't make sense, anyway - Homer doesn't shoot any kids or anything (or anyone at all). So if you want to add the mention of the Dunblane shootings back in, please add a source.

message: i'm going to delete Willie saying "They call this a soccer riot?" and the Scottish men starting the riot is a reference to soccer hooliganism in Great Britain. because it has no merit- it plays on stereotypes and doesn't say why it makes reference to this. it appears that someone associated football with hooliganism and therefore linked them here with no proof.

replies: text: No, I don't think it would be. Wikipedia is not a place for information, and the guns in the gunshop are too trivial, and not what the episode is well known for. TheBlazikenMaster 00:22, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

**Already was done. 
***I mean, executively is the wrong word. "Executive produced" is proper grammar. Alientraveller 15:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

message: On channel four, the part where Marge decides to keep the gun was cut  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Vitual aelita (talk • contribs) 17:14, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is unsourced, and that is simply all there is to it. The fact that it aired with the cut, and you and others can confirm that is irelevant. The fact is, if you showed the edited version of the episode, to something who had never seen the episode before, they would have no idea that anything was cut. Therefore it is OR to say that it was cut without and online or paper source. A reliable source is definitly needed in this circumstance. Also, the majority of censor cuts are not at all notable, unless they are reported by reliable sources, with a specific reason for their cutting being given. I see no reason why this is any different. The episode featuring a cut, in one airing is not notable. Gran2 18:34, 28 July 2008 (UTC)

text: "As I said, unless it is reported by a reliable source, it has no notability." Both of those points are sourced. Gran2 18:24, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Homer suggests Bart and Lisa take "the gun" to defend themselves in 3F16 "The Day the Violence Died", which would mean he had a gun before this episode. Worth mentioning? --Serpinium (talk) 18:15, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd say not worth mentioning as it's trivia and original research. Continuity errors and such usually should not be mentioned. —DangerousJXD (talk) 21:27, 14 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay. He also wields a shotgun onscreen in "$pringfield". --Serpinium (talk) 07:33, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
