Oh, dear. This article is a bit of a mess, isn't it? I'll give it a quick once-over, but it needs serious attention from someone with more knowledge and source material than I. -- Karen | Talk | contribs 04:10, 21 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Where's the story of Ub Iwerks death? 11:32 AM, February 14, 2017 (EST)

November 2020

The story here about the creation of Mickey Mouse directly conflicts with the story in the Mickey Mouse entry. They both cite the same source material, but I don't have the book available so I can't sort out who's right.

This entry:

Ub Iwerks eventually got inspiration from an old drawing. In 1925, Hugh Harman drew some sketches of mice around a photograph of Walt Disney. Then, on a train ride back from a failed business meeting, Walt Disney came up with the original sketch for the character that was eventually called Mickey Mouse.[10] Afterward, Disney took the sketch to Iwerks. In turn, he drew a more clean-cut and refined version of Mickey, but one that still followed the original sketch.

Mickey Mouse entry:

Walt Disney got the inspiration for Mickey Mouse from a tame mouse at his desk at Laugh-O-Gram Studio in Kansas City, Missouri.[6] In 1925, Hugh Harman drew some sketches of mice around a photograph of Walt Disney. These inspired Ub Iwerks to create a new mouse character for Disney.

"of Dutch descent"?

If His father was born in the village of Uttum in East Frisia (northwest Germany (…)), then he was most likely Frisian, German, or both. Frisians don't automatically self-identify as Dutch if they're from outside of the Netherlands. 195.187.108.130 (talk) 16:37, 16 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
