thread_title:  psychopath 

message: My additions to the jobs that Peter has had have been reverted.  I had added that he had jobs as a New England Patriot and was a knight.  These weren't part of the usual gag jobs that were used for a cutaway gag.  While they weren't lasting occupations (an episode each), they were important parts of the actual narrative of the episodes.  As such, they were not gags. -Xcuref1endx (talk) 05:07, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: They certainly weren't just "gags", though I don't know if one-episode-only jobs tend to be included. Snuggums (talk / edits) 05:15, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

text: "1-off gags" is admittedly an oversimplification of what they were (we get plenty of attempts to list 1-offs in these articles, so it was an over-quick assessment).  As far as I understand, minor (ie: non-recurring) factoids like these are usually not included in these articles.  Willing to wait for more input/opinions, but I think the entries in question are not notable enough to be included. DP76764 (Talk) 05:21, 7 November 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed, it gives undue weight to minor, one episode jobs. Just like Homer Simpson only has power plant listed, despite having hundreds of one episode jobs. CTF83! 22:35, 7 November 2014 (UTC)

text: I don't know if this is an WP:UNDUE issue.  However, the only point I am making, without getting all wikilawyer here, is that these one episode jobs were part of the overall narrative of the family guy world.  Would they be listed if they were a two episode job?  -Xcuref1endx (talk) 04:11, 8 November 2014 (UTC)

replies: text: I thought about adding that, but I guess it will go the way of megatron griffin Toten (talk) 20:22, 9 February 2015 (UTC)

text: No because that was a one-episode-only gag. On the other hand, mentions within multiple episodes would make such an addition more worthy. Snuggums (talk / edits) 04:14, 16 November 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Justin Griffin 

message: There is only one episode which mentions this as his middle name, once, the same as there is only one episode which makes jokes about his actual name being Justin. Therefore, we should just stick to the name the character is most known by, as this proves there is elasticity to his name because...it's a cartoon tAD (talk) 22:07, 11 February 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I completely disagree. This is an absurd policy. Any name which was mentioned in the show as being his legal name should be mentioned as one of his names in the article. "Peter Griffin (or Justin Peter Griffin, or Peter Lowebrau Griffin)" would be a perfectly reasonable opening for this article, with references to the episodes mentioning each name. Also, both names (and any future that are mentioned) should be listed under "Full Name" in the character info, where it would also make sense to list "Kichwa Tembo" and "Gggwggwg" as names he has gone by briefly. Same with "Megatron Griffin" in the Meg article. I'm not sure who unilaterally decided to change obvious and common-sense policies on character names on Wikipedia just for Family Guy, but they are wrong, and your "therefore" argument is utter nonsense: plenty of critical facts about fictional characters across all forms of media are only mentioned once. Even if it were a "cutaway gag" (it wasn't, it was featured heavily in the main plotline of an entire episode), there is no argument to support not listing it as one of his full names.MarcelB612 (talk) 06:31, 9 March 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removed Lowenbrau 

message: Please add on to the praise section of the Peter Griffin articular to include:
 Peter griffin’s popularity extends far past simply being a name on a list he has also been able to develop an intense real world fan following. Since 2014, comic-con pattern Robert Franzese has donned the alter ego of peter griffin. As himself Robert Franzese refers to himself as being a “no body with a no body job…”but, once he put on the cos-play and voice of Peter Griffin he becomes a “somebody”.
