Talk:Walt Disney Imagineering

message: I just came across a blog entry that claims to have found an earlier use of the term than is cited in this article.

I'm no expert (nor enthusiast :), so I'll let you guys figure this one out.

thread_title:  Origin of term 

message: :Image:HKDL tomorrowland concept.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 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 uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 06:34, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Current imagineering projects 

message: The article states "Disney filed for a copyright for the term in 1967, claiming first use of the term in 1962." But single words generally cannot be copyrighted - I assume that this was intended to refer to a trademark. I found a trademark record for "imagineering", and it does state that it was first used in 1962, but it says it was filed in 1989:

This might not be the right record, or it might have been registered with a state organization or something, I don't know. In any case it's currently unsupported. Dcoetzee 13:38, 19 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Copyright should be trademark? 

message: Why is this here? Other companies pages listed on wikipedia do not have an ongoing updating list of the company's current employees. After checking both Apple, Inc. and Google, I understand that wikipedia has a "Key People" section as part of the {infobox} for notable employees that have their own pages (such as the CEO but not in the case of Imagineering). And that's it. Company employees are listing each other's names for no apparent reason. If no one finds any objection, I plan to remove the entire management section and update the {infobox} with "Key People" to include only John Lasseter as the Principle Creative Advisor. While other high positions would be relevant, since the individuals do not have their own pages, they have no reason to be included.

replies: text: Fully concur with the removal of that section. It was not in compliance with Wikipedia policy or the Manual of Style. Thanks for taking care of that. --Coolcaesar (talk) 23:31, 23 March 2019 (UTC)
