Talk:Ralph Wiggum

message: Okay guys, we all love Ralph's endless verbal wisdom, but maybe his quote section on this page is a bit too long. Especially when considering that there's a separate page dedicated to his quotes specifically. I suggest that we copy and past the list as it is now and put it there (replace it actually...since this list has everything that list has and more), and choose a handful of Ralph's best lines to feature here on his profile. What do you guys think? 
I won't do anything yet. If we do choose some of his best we should suggest and talk about it here. "It tastes like burning" and its setup I suggest should be kept on here. Its too classic and ...just plain hilarious not to be featured.--Kiyosuki 19:13, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

message: should we put in that whenever ralph asks miss hover anything she ignores it or also when thay doing a party for Skinner ralph put his hand up but she chooses Lisa and Ralph says "No Miss. Hover, I'm Ralph."

message: I removed (sic) from some of the quotes, as I felt they were not needed.  However, they might have been correctly placed, so if anybody feels the need, put them back.  Remember, though, that [sic] uses brackets, not parentheses. PrometheusX303 19:49, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

message: This article seems to use a lot of informal language and personal opinions.  E.g. "rather interesting personality and his hilarious commentary" and "While Bart is at first less than thrilled with this, he genuinely has a good time with Ralph during their time together, eventually learning a thing or two about him in the process."

message: No offense to whoever wrote the info box about Ralph, but his hair really isn't wavy. Anynobody 11:34, 16 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Personally I think its blonde. I think the lines are an artistic use of silhouette and contour line art, in other words the lines just outline his hair shape since his skin is yellow too. Kind of like how Bart and Lisa's hair is a shape. At least I believe that was the intention in the beginning. There's even one issue of the comic where a lot of characters are drawn in an alternate "realistic" style and Ralph is blonde with a bowl cut. I'm not gonna change it for this though, I don't think its that important. --76.166.144.112 20:15, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Could Ralph have Asperger syndrome, a form of autism which inhibits social skills?
:Great question. Previously there were musings along these lines (later removed - rightfully so, I begrudgingly admit - by Scorpion0422). Surely sources exist, what with the rise in prominence of Asperger's in the collective conscious (e.g., the popularity of Look Me in the Eye), right? For the record, Ralph isn't even mentioned in the index of The Simpsons and Philosophy. - Boozinf (talk) 00:22, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  It could be social skills actually. At least that's how the character began all that time ago, but even nowadays the show and its material goes back and fourth on it. He's like a bizzare pastiche of all sorts of things. Sometimes he may have something like Aspergers or Autism, sometimes he was dropped on his head, sometimes he's just plain insane, and sometimes he's like he initially was...just different and awkward. I've come to the conclusion that various writers basically just do whatever they want with him at the time, as long as he's "differet".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 218.229.126.29 (talk) 23:17, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

replies: text: Clancy is a heavy guy, and Sarah's pretty beefy herself. Its just design consistency I guess, but a lot of Springfield isn't in great shape, although the Wiggums seem to be just a naturally husky family too. I don't think its necessary to draw attention to his figure really, its not a defining characteristic.--76.166.144.112 20:07, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ralph's figure 

message: Everyone keep an eye on the page and watch for people who add "Ralph Wiggum in 08" or crap like that. Maybe a couple sentences about the episode, but for now revert any propaganda or large sections. If this actually becomes something notable, then it might warrant extended mention. -- Scorpion0422 01:53, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I was keeping an eye out for it last night and was surprised when I didn't see anything. Still, it undoubtedly will come eventually. I also watch Dennis Kucinich, and was just as surprised that no mention was made of the scene in Moe's from last night's episode. By the way, that was the worst episode I've seen...maybe ever. At least the worst of the past three or four years, I'd say. Disappointing that an episode about one of my favorite characters was so poorly executed. Oh well. faithless (speak) 17:00, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

message: Hi there,
The article states Ralph's relationship to Chief Wiggum becomes canon in the episode titled "I Love Lisa," but Lisa actually calls him "Wiggum" when she's passing out letters/packages in "Kamp Krusty," the first episode of season 4. I can't find a source online that corroborates but I feel like it should be clarified. That's the first time we know he's related to Chief Wiggum.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.46.61.130 (talk) 14:37, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

message: I already see a request for clarification by this word; I am pretty sure that this is not what was intended by the person describing Ralph. Perhaps "wise" or "thoughtful" would be better?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.37.99.86 (talk) 11:38, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
