Colorized photo

I find the colorized photo quite disconcerting. Is it just me? Jd2718 23:01, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

Requested move

This article has been renamed from Allen "Farina" Hoskins to Allen Hoskins as the result of a move request.

The following discussion is an archived discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was - unopposed move of all articles involved. Keith D (talk) 23:56, 13 January 2008 (UTC)

Moving a block of Our Gang child actors to new namespaces to remove the nicknames from the titles (perhaps to match George McFarland and Carl Switzer?). While this is a more or less uncontroversial move, Oanabay04 (talk · contribs) attempted cut and paste moves. A moderator is now needed to move these pages and preserve the histories of each. --FuriousFreddy (talk) 03:04, 8 January 2008 (UTC) (Copied from WP:RM^[1] --Lox (t,c))

  • Billie "Buckwheat" Thomas → Billie Thomas

Discussion

• Support all of these moves (no reason to have nicknames). My thoughts regarding the remaining actor (not listed above) is:

Eugene "Porky" Lee → Eugene Lee (American actor) (to differentiate between Eugene Lee (actor) --Lox (t,c) 09:48, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

The other Eugene Lee is also American (Asian-American), as he was born in California. That's why I suggested leaving Eugene "Porky" Lee where it is; or perhaps going with Eugene Gordon Lee, since Lee changed his name as an adult to add the middle name, and went by "Gordon". --FuriousFreddy (talk) 19:54, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

My mistake, Eugene Gordon Lee seems a good choice --Lox (t,c) 20:02, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

• Support all of these moves (no reason to have nicknames). Yes, Eugene Gordon Lee make sense to me. I forgot he added "gordon." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oanabay04 (talk • contribs) 19:09, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
• Oppose - move them to the nicknames instead. I don't know George McFarland, but I know Spanky. I don't know Billie Thomas, but I know Buckwheat. These must be the common names per WP:UCN. Dekimasuよ! 06:08, 10 January 2008 (UTC) Actually, since these are about the actors and not the characters, forget that. Support. Dekimasuよ! 06:09, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

Missing credits

list of credits in the movie "Mayor of Hell" lists Allen "Farina" Hoskins as playing Joliet "Smoke" Hemingway! The list of works in Wikipedia Allen Hoskins does not reflect this fact, my guess is there may be more! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kingfred777 (talk • contribs) 07:50, 22 January 2011 (UTC)
