Half holiday[edit]

Hello, as the creator of this here site, with its admittedly limited information, I suggest that perhaps the information in this and the Ally Sloper's Half Holiday wikipedia entry be merged into a single larger article. Any thoughts?

It's a thought. Which page do you reckon is the better one to keep as the main page, to which the other would redirects? Whilst I'm here, good work on the page but would you be offended if I asked if you happen to remember or have to hand any sources for this information?

Probably the Half Holiday one would be preferable as it does seem to be more thorough, and contains the links to strips etc. Although that would still need to contain an "early history" section which deals with Sloper's "Judy" years, as well as an "after" section containing info on the recent stage show, and his influences on other similar characters.

Question[edit]

Is it really necessary to have links to the Yellow Kid and Obadiah Oldbuck in this article? 41.245.182.70 (talk) 08:20, 7 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrect title on image[edit]

Hello, I'm new to editing on Wiki so apologies in advance for any errors. I noticed the title on the supporting image of this page is incorrect. It states that the panels are from 'Some of the Mysteries of Loan & Discount' (which was the very first Ally Sloper strip in Judy, published 14th August 1867). However, the panels shown are from an Ally Sloper strip entitled 'Iky Mo Unlocks a Secret' which was published in Judy on 2nd March 1870. --JohnCNash (talk) 21:12, 4 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
