Relationship between Looney Tunes, Merrie Melodies

The Merrie Melodies article (opening section) refers to Looney Tunes as a parent series, while the Looney Tunes article (opening section) refers to Merrie Melodies as a sister series. Which is more accurate? In the absence of such thing as some sort of series incest, these relationships apparently contradict.

Proposed merge with The Looney Tunes Show (2002 TV series)

Article contains no useful info and it was just a reruns of the original series/ JDDJS (talk) 14:37, 30 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of The Martian Queen content

In these sets of edits [1][2] user Zjec added content about a Martian Queen character. I feel this content is clunky and distracts from the scope of the paragraph, which is to present a quick prose list of various Looney Tunes series. I also don't think the parentheticals that indicate who "stars" in the series is useful and it invites more additions like the Martian Queen. For this reason (which I explained in my original edit summary I am removing the content again. If the paragraph were specifically about Duck Dodgers, it would make more sense to mention the Martian Queen, but that is not what the paragraph intends to cover.

I don't see what the problem is. She's another looney tunes character and thought it'd be nice to give her some recognition - 18:15, 16 September 2014 (UTC) user Zjec

We don't give "recognition" to characters; information shouldn't be gratuitously included. If there is a logical reason for writing about a character in a paragraph that is focused on the different series, you haven't yet explained it. The focus of the paragraph isn't "characters in Looney Tunes shows" or "new characters introduced in Looney Tunes shows". Thus, I find it an unnecessary inclusion, especially when stuffed into a parenthetical. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:39, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Roger Rabbit an epic?

Does Who Framed Roger Rabbit qualify as an epic film? While I enjoyed the film I don't think it has particularly "large scale, sweeping scope and spectacle".
