McGrath had nothing to do with Nickelodeon or Top Gun appearing in the parks as it happened prior to his involvement. Additionally, Happy Days Diner occured after he left. Hence those references were deleted.

Is Cedar Fair, L.P. going to remove the "Paramount" off the park names? Eventually, they most likely will, but they never announced such an intention right away. As of now, the five parks operate under their existing Paramount names, although Cedar Fair, L.P. is mentioned at the end of new press releases as the park's/parks' owner and operator.

There has been a rumor that the Paramount name may remain at least into the 2007 season. After all, Cedar Fair owns rights to Paramount Pictures properties for 10 years, although subject to early termination.

However, some new merchandise in shops, at least at Kings Island, lack the "Paramount" prefix, a strong indication that the Paramount name will disappear from the parks after the 2006 season.--CoastersNSich 06:11, 19 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cedar Fair will most likely change the names of the parks their original names without the Paramount prefix. Since Paramount has no say whatsoever with the parks it would be pointless and useless to keep the Paramount prefix. Coasterman1234 23:23, 30 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Website

I went ahead and removed the Paramount Parks link since it now redirects to the Cedar Fair website which is already listed. Dblevins2 00:42, 27 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:BBCarowinds.jpg

Image:BBCarowinds.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 00:59, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Questions marks

Question marks are fine, they're used in publications and here they are just as placeholders for more experiences users to fill in, (and citations aren't needed or required since the dates don't need to be cited) and remember, Wikipedia is a work in progress. Simply reverting without discussion is not constructive, I guarantee they will be filled in quickly if you had left them. When I've done it before they have been filled in quickly. However, I'm not going to get into an edit war with you over it, but just because an article lacks proper citation is not a reason to blank out user's contributions. Please demand citations rather than deleting the work of others. Epson291 00:42, 13 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of information regarding any post-2006 parks

None of the parks made after 2006 have anything to do with Paramount Parks, the division of Viacom that operated from 1993-2006. All of these parks have nothing to do with the defunct division and thus have no reason to be in this article.

It would be better to split this article into two articles, possibly an article on the use of Paramount intellectual properties in amusement parks (which would be the many projects in development) and then have this article actually be about the chain.
