Melissa Duck

Aside from the article being full of original research, most of the information is actually about other (apparent) love interests of Daffy Duck who took her place rather than about Melissa herself. The article was merged to Daffy's article before but it was reverted; I personally think this would be a better target (but I wouldn't necessarily object to a merge to Daffy's article). Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 19:30, 19 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Erpert: I disagree. List pages like this are usually a graveyard, and no one is motivated to improve the article at that point. I see from the history of the Melissa Duck page that several people, including you, have tried to blank and redirect the page over the last year, and several editors have reverted that change. The page was even protected, to keep an unregistered user from trying to blank the page. I agree with you that the section on Daffy's other girlfriends and wives was not relevant and unsourced, so I was bold and deleted that section. — Toughpigs (talk) 01:21, 1 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Well, she still doesn't appear notable on her own. Worst-case scenario, her article could be nominated for deletion. Erpert ^{blah, blah, blah...} 12:57, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

She's notable enough in my opinion. Her appearances are like with Taz and Marvin, just to a lesser extent; not many theatrical shorts, but fairly popular afterwards. Unnamed anon (talk) 14:24, 18 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Female cannibal

Citing section; "Rocky and Mugsy"; "Around the end of the song, Rocky and Mugsy joined in on the final verse with Nasty Canasta, an angry bride, a female cannibal, a grizzly bear, and Toro the Bull." Would the "female cannibal" perhaps be Inki? The phrasing is pretty ambiguous but cannibals are often connected to the African pickaninny stereotype. (Inki's nether female nor cannibal, though.) 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 13:14, 3 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, in any way shape or form. oknazevad (talk) 03:38, 12 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ralph Phillips

Someone keep removing him. 74.51.206.118 (talk) 15:21, 12 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Because he shouldn't be deceptively linked to only one short. If he doesn't have enough for a separate article (and I don't think he does), add an entry here, like other minor recurring characters. oknazevad (talk) 05:31, 14 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Count Bloodcount

Redirects here but is not even mentioned... _{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:04, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

One-off character from the 1963 short Transylvania 6-5000 who gets brought back occasionally in subsequent works when they need a stereotypical vampire. The short is probably a better redirect target. oknazevad (talk) 13:55, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Short

why does the page seam so short missing characters that i can think of at the top of my head are

Mad scientist (the one with Gossamer)

mac and tash

Michigan J. Frog

Haut too name three 92.236.253.249 (talk) 22:00, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The mad scientist is not one character and not notable. The Goofy Gophers and Michigan J. Frog have their own articles and are listed in the list of characters with thier own articles. oknazevad (talk) 22:51, 3 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Display

Could this be a better why to display some characters
