message: As of 7/11 there is no article that I can find by a Jeff Widening in the Wall Street Journal.  An internet search for that name, as well as the text of the quote, only returns this Wikipedia page.  Suggest that this quote be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.35.71.150 (talk) 20:22, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Supposed WSJ review

message: I also think breaking out their names to discrete links is overlinking. It's similar to doing something like The Fantastic Four. It's not truly helpful to the article.x 02:49, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  It would make sense if there was an article for every episode to link to that article, but linking to a subject in the article does not make sense.  It is not as if the subjects (wolf, egg, camel) are such rare topic that don't expect the reader to recognize them.  And if they don't they can easily look it up without a direct wikilink.

thread_title: Linking of names

message: why was the production section removed from this article? looks like a vandal hit it, but then it wasn't re-added during a reversion. any reason why? Cookie3 17:08, 3 November 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: From what I could tell from the history, the sections were removed as part of vandalism, but when that was cleared, the sections were not put back. I think I've fixed them. x 17:33, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

message: ===CD at Nick Shop Ref===
I really hate using the Nick Store as a reference (very spammy), but the CD definitely exists, but I can't find a useful news item or review to refer to, so I'm hoping this is an acceptable comropmise until something better is found. x 20:39, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: CD at Nick Shop Ref

message: I think it makes the most sense to keep this article structured so that the most pertinent for a concerned adult (such as a parent) is seen first. This would be a quick description, then info on who the makes it, then follow with details about the characters and stories.
There seems to be a desire of some editors to regurgitate random episode details (with a tenuous connection to what's discussed), which isn't really very informative. x 15:24, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Article structure

message: Because of all the dubious changes to the section "Syndication history", the question of its actual value was brought into higher relief. How and where a TV show is syndicated says nothing about the show, really. It's like providing a list in an iPod article of all the stores it's sold at. It's filler, so I've removed it. Please discuss before replacing. x 15:35, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As a follow up, perhaps a better example of this kind of thing can be seen at Kidnapped (TV series), which informs and confirms. On that page it lets people know it's still being aired around the world, plus when it started and often when it airs; as opposed to a list of Nick channels with contries and no supporting info.  x 15:43, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There's beginning to be a problem with an anon editor (usually IP 71.61.219.192) continually re-adding the syndication section w/o discussion. I've asked for discussion but it never happens. So I'm going to start considering further reinsertions as vandalism. x 14:28, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that the information should not be there.  Syndication information is also very dynamic.Happinessiseasy 18:09, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Linny the Guinea Pig 

message: Trust me, I'm as big a fan of getting science right in shows as anyone -- but do we really need this section on Wonderpets?  
Why doesn't the writer mention that animals don't typically speak english and that a plastic toy boat with a sail and wheels loosely affixed won't fly?  How about the episode where they couldn't get the poodle off the Eiffel Tower because she was too big for their boat?  They got that one right!  While we're at it, who the devil calls the Wonderpets in the first place? (I'm guessing Charlie from Charlie's Angels).  That section is irrelevant. --Pittsburghmuggle 14:44, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Adding Semi-protecting for vandalism

message: Can someone please check the episode list for accuracy?  There have been a lot of edits to it recently and it may not be correct.  I am not that familiar with the show (my son watches it, but I never took to it like I have the Backyardigans) so I am not the best one to verify it.  Thanks!  Josborne2382 01:04, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've checked the episode list and removed the unsourced entries. I've also sourced the list of DVD and their episodes. As of this time stamp, I believe that the list is correct.  — CactusWriter | needles 07:13, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Save The Wonder Pets

message: ok, why the heck are these episodes are NOT in the ep list? this is the same to "save the hound dog", "save the cool cat and the hip hippo / tuck and buck", "save the dancing duck / save the dalmatian". if some one seen these episodes, they better get these episodes on the ep list, just to make me happy.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.243.19.150 (talk) 16:30, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: The Amazing Ollie / Help the Monster

message: There seems to be some ongoing confusion regarding episode titles for Wonder Pets. To help clarify:
*Each half hour show includes two episodes. The exception is the show that features the special Xmas episode "Save the Reindeer!", which is double the normal length.
*Each ep title is puncuated with an exclamation point.
*The ep where Ming Ming is rescued is titled "Save The Duckling!" See IMDB: []
*Though most titles only feature one animal, the ep "Save the Yak, the Pig, and the Dancing Bear!" does indeed feature three (they are a performing troupe). They are not separate eps. x 17:12, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Episode Titles

message: Occasionally, additional characters have been inserted into the cast list. But they are really only featured on one episode. Perhaps there needs to be a separate section covering them. Or is that overkill to even include them? x 19:38, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have removed the additional characters section, including Ollie's family.  Every single episode has one-of characters, and would be serious overkill - especially listing all the characters in say ... "The Wonderpets Save the Wonderpets".

thread_title: Additional characters

message: I think it's time to tackle the problems in the Episode structure section.  There are far too many intricate details that detract from the quality of the article itself.  I am going to begin trimming this shortly, probably beginning with the songs themselves. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:40, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Originally, the "sewious" was natural mispronunciation, they have asked her to continue it - so it's more "forced" now. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 11:41, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Ollie's status is a bit ambiguous. He is seen living in the school, then outdoors and he often fashions himself to be a Wonder Pet ...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.8.24.67 (talk) 01:36, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: He's not actually a Wonder Pet - a semi-regular character, yes and he's gone a-rescuing once or twice.  Officially, he's not one. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 09:11, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is Ollie a Wonder Pet? 

message: I have the article on my watchlist and I when I looked at one of the sections, it seemed false and is probably vandalism (specifically Tuck the Turtle). Could someone protect the article to prevent future vandalism?--Impala99 (talk) 13:28, 21 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: One vandalism is not goign to lead to protection.  I have undone those edits .. you could/should have done the same thing. (talk→ BWilkins ←track) 00:36, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Vandalism 

message: The character infoboxes strike me as repetitive and they don't contribute anything other than providing bloated photos of the characters.  Anyone have any objections to the deletion of the infoboxes?  Seems we could accomplish more by trimming down the article and including photos where warranted.  Thoughts?
