message: The current link to Beaker leads to the scientific apparatus, whereas I assume the link should be to the muppet character named Beaker.

message: This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it.  Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed.  I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy.  In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright. If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed or you would like to help spread this message contact us on this page. Thanks, ---J.S (t|c) 04:07, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

message: From the discography section: He has it in "Bert's Tales of SCARY STUFF! in 'Bert's House'". This means nothing to me. If no one knows what it means, I will remove it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Angrymansr (talk • contribs) 01:33, 4 May 2007 (UTC)

message: The article erroneously states that no age has ever been given for Bert and Ernie. There was a sketch that presented them as clerly in the preschool age group. Ernie was dressed as a doctor, and Bert wanted a diagnosis. Ernie said he couldn't do that until he was a doctor, and that would take going all the way through school, starting with kindergarten, which presumably he wasn't even in yet. Of course that was many years ago, and characters on Sesame Street do seem to age, so many they're adults now. But they were very clearly very young kids in the early days.

message: :Image:Tv sesame street Berts Pigeon Call lion.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

message: There is an article for Bert, an article for Ernie, and an article for Bert and Ernie.  At least one of those three needs to go.  I'd merge the first two into the third. Vidor (talk)

message: Why is the part on homosexuality in there?  Kids read this stuff! Cmon!  Why should someones sexuality be an issue especially of a puppet?  He is not real.  He cannot have sex.  I find it sick that this is even an issue.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.205.54.4 (talk) 21:10, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

message: I have noticed that the page images on the pages for both Ernie and Bert are the same photograph, showing the two side-by-side. I think each article should gets its own photo showing only Bert or Ernie, rather than the two of them together.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2001:569:FC9C:E700:7D8E:4E5E:16B7:4045 (talk) 16:25, 7 August 2023 (UTC)
