Mickey Mouse (film series)[edit]

Featured list candidates/Mickey Mouse (film series)/archive1

Nominator(s): Mickey798 (talk) 15:41, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because Mickey Mouse is a popular character is the list of his cartoons should be used at least to show appreciation to Mickey Mouse since the article has a lot of work to do. Mickey798 (talk) 15:41, 6 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Was this article submitted for a peer review prior to it being placed as FLC?
There are no citations for anything in the introduction.
1928: Steamboat Bill, Jr. and The Gaucho should be in italics. That Disney was making parodies of these films should be sourced.
Far too many notes have no citiation.
2010s: Get a Horse (2013) What is this supposed to mean???
Releases section: I think it would be better if this was placed at the top; possibly it could be merged with the Production section. Names of DVD releases should be italics. Mickey Mouse in Black and White, Volume Two has the comma in the wrong place. Jimknut (talk) 18:37, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose

The IMDb usually isn't considered a reliable source (see Wikipedia:Citing IMDb).
The Disney A–Z ref. needs to be fixed.
In notes write The Encyclopedia of Disney Animated Shorts (EDAS) → not just EDAS.
Provide page numbers for all Disney A–Z notes.
Notes 5, 15, etc. need to be fleshed out. Add full publisher info + date retrieved.
The Smith notes → Are "Mickey's Pal Pluto", etc. chapter titles?
Tomart's Illustrated Disneyana Catalog and Price Guide → when, where, what is this? If I wanted to look this up how could I do it?
There are many things that aren't sourced. For example:

The entire introduction.

The voices actors in the "Production" section.

Most of the directors in the "List of Films" section.

"In 2013, a series of 19 new Mickey Mouse shorts will air on Disney Channel starting June 29."

Oppose on referencing and style. External links in the body should not be at this level... that should have gone well before FLC. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:31, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
