List of animation shorts (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View AfD | edits since nomination)

This listicle lacks references and seems to only act as a hub for Golden Age animation shorts, with little emphasis on notable shorts produced after the 1950s and before the 1920s. I'm not sure what even is the point of this listicle, aside from trying and failing to include everything in a too-extensive medium. You may as well try out a non-referenced listicle of every live film ever made. Carlinal (talk) 15:33, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Update: There's also "List of animated short films", which is more extensive and even has a few dozen references, but still far too little for the amount of shorts listed. I don't know about this one either. Carlinal (talk) 16:03, 10 January 2026 (UTC)[reply]

The article doesn't even make it clear what it is ("story"), but it seems like a comic/graphic novel. There is no claim of notability in the article, it's just plot summary. Cited book (Bishop) is not independent (Bishop was one of the editors/writers for the franchise). My BEFORE failed to find sources that meet SIGCOV, are independent and go beyond plot summary.

Fails WP:NFILM. Using newspapers.com, I only identified one review in The Anniston Star, and currently, the article's only citation is to a book generally on American animation to substantiate the film's release date. I found no evidence that this film continues to receive scholarly attention, nor has it been selected for preservation in a national archive. The article makes no claim to a unique accomplishment in cinema, and I found no evidence that it won any major awards. MGM Cartoons Fandom Wiki claims that it has been packaged with other MGM cartoons, but I did not find a reliable source to support this, nor do I think that meets WP:NFO's reference to films given a commercial re-release.

Comment Plot summary, and copy of a very short review are in That's Enough, Folks and there is something else about it on another page not available in the preview which makes it trickier to work out how useful it is or isn't.

      The book notes: "In the script of MGM’s cartoon The Goose Goes South (1941) directors William Hanna and Joseph Barbera describe a southern black “tobacco worker” character in a very detailed and redundant manner—“a lazy Stepin’ Fetchit type worker listens in a stupid lazy manner”—going to great lengths to establish the character’s slothfulness. The script also describes the character’s speech as “very slow” and contains unintelligible dialogue for actors to voice for African American characters, reflecting the identification of the characters as rural laborers. ... The Goose Goes South was the latest of films to broadly caricature rural African Americans. Very little changed in the portrayal of animated black rural characters between the mid-1930s and mid-1940s. ... The aforementioned cartoon The Goose Goes South (1941) has the unique twist of presenting figures knowledgeable about life outside their cotton plantation. Among the "happy carefree cotton pickers," according to the script, one of the "two negro women in the foreground, picking cotton," complains about her children: "They all wants to grow up to be 'Rochesters." The next scene then features "sev-eral little pickaninnies" playing with toy telephones, shouting, "Hello, Mr. Benny." Despite the radical image of children looking to a black actor as a role model, the animators tried to extract humor from the juxtaposition of black children looking like poor, exploited rural laborers but acting like a popular contemporary Hollywood performer."

      The book notes: "Story: The carton opens with flocks of geese taking flight from their summer home on a lake. The offscreen narrator says, "Yes sir. These are wild geese and they're off for the sunny south. Each year at the very first sign of winter, these great flocks of birds fly southward, honking their way to southern marshes, there to bask in that warm tropical sun. It's their big annual trip and they all go—yes they all go but they don't all fly." A little goose is seen standing on U.S. Highway 1 south trying unsuccessfully to hitch a ride from passing motorists."

        The review notes: "The Goose Goes South: This fairly-funny cartoon has a meek-and-mild version of Donald, the duck that laid the 14-karat spheroid for Disney. A series of snappy gags with Kentucky cunnels, Esquire hicks, cotton pickers and other goony Americana. Okay stuff."

        The article notes: "The Goose Goes South. MetroCartoons. 8m. The geese fly south when winter approaches, all except one little fellow who hitch-hikes. Along the way he goes through the Blue Ridge mountains, meets hill-billies, moonshiners, and “revenooers,” encounters Georgia peaches, cotton-pickers, and tobacco auctioneers, alligators in the Everglades. Commentary and subject matter are quite amusing, even if this is similar to a technique used by another cartoon series. Good. (W-246)."

      3. "The Goose Goes South". Kinematograph Weekly. Vol. 296, no. 1802. p. 26. Retrieved 2026-01-10 – via Internet Archive.

        The review notes: "The Goose Goes South, American (UC). One reel. Release not fired.—Clever cartoon travesty photographed in colour, on the migration of geese. Gags really bright and colour work efficient. Capital fill-up of its type."

      4. "Many Fine Pictures Scheduled For Local Movie-Goers". The Anniston Star. 1941-05-18. Archived from the original on 2026-01-10. Retrieved 2026-01-10 – via Newspapers.com.

        The article notes: "Also shown on this program will be the delightful color-cartoon, "The Goose Goes South." This hilarious cartoon presents the adventures of Mr. Goose as he goes South for the winter. He meets with many experiences as he hitch-hikes, instead of flying, to his summer home."

    There is sufficient coverage in reliable sources to allow The Goose Goes South to pass Wikipedia:Notability#General notability guideline, which requires "significant coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject".

Propose merging Template:R comics with possibilities with Template:R with possibilities; Template:R comics from alternative name with Template:R from alternative name; Template:R comics to list entry with Template:R to list entry; Template:R comics from merge with Template:R from merge; Template:R comics from related word with Template:R from related word; and Template:R comics to section with Template:R to section, respectively.
Note that this isn't a proposal to merge all these templates into one huge template, but to merge the comics redirect templates into their non-comics equivalents. I think the comics redirect templates should be merged into their respectively similary titled templates, without the word 'comics' in them, because they otherwise serve similar purposes, and I don't see the point of them being separate. I'm open to the proposals of the templates without the word 'comics' in their titles having the {{{comics}}} parameter instead if that's what Wikipedia:WikiProject Comics and its participants want. I'm surprised these proposals weren't made sooner. I've deliberately excluded 'Template:R comics naming convention' from this proposal because it serves a specific purpose and because there's no non-comics-related template similar to that one.

@TadgStirkland401: The nominator wants to merge all the comics into the non-comics. I.e. merge the first with the second ("R comics with possibilities" with "R with possibilities"), the third with fourth ("R comics from alternative name" with "R from alternative name") and so on. Christian75 (talk) 20:43, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
As of 2025-11-09 I feel that the proposal is clear enough (replace all the "R comics" templates with their regular counterparts), and I weak support because this also seems unnecessarily redundant to me. If anyone has a good reason for keeping them then I'd be interested to hear it! But my hunch is that it's just historical cruft. Hopefully an automated replacement can also automatedly "add {{WikiProject Comics}} to the talk page of the redirect" or whatever (if anyone actually cares about that; I don't really know) as well.

  • Support per voidxor. Christian75 (talk) 20:43, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support the actual intent here. This was mislisted as a single merge (i.e. to one template), when the intent is clearly to merge {{R comics with possibilities}} to {{R with possibilities}}, then separately merge {{R comics from alternative name}} to {{R from alternative name}}, and so on. This should be done unless there's a compelling reason we need to divide each of these "R with/from/to generic_maintenance_categorization" rcats into topical subdivisions, and that comics in particular should be one of those subdivisions. (Even if that's actually true in some case, it is not necessarily true for all of them.) We shold do all of these merges in absence of a strong showing that one or more should not be merged. This is basically useless micro-intersection, of a sort that badly mixes categorization types and purposes. The identification of something as a comics topic is already accomplished (and is a reader- as well as editor-facing matter) by comics topical categories of the usual sort. Meanwhile, "R with/from/to generic_maintenance_categorization" categories are maintenance only and just editor-facing (nor do these generally need to be topically split, since editors working on categorization of, and other maintenance pertaining to, redirects that go in such categories are doing so on a cross-topical basis. Another way of putting it is that a redir being from an alternative name (or whatever) and it also pertaining to comics is a trivial intersection and non-defining characteristic.  — SMcCandlish ¢ 😼  21:01, 6 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question to supports: You are all saying you support the nomination, but three of you said per "SMcCandlish" which (if I read correctly) isn't in support of continuing with the comic-specific categorization.

  • Only Support merging the comic variants of these R-cat templates into the corresponding general templates with matching names. For the avoidance of doubt, I Oppose merging the various R-cat templates that do not include the word comics. The proposal is badly worded and confusing at first glance. It would have been clearer if a separate proposal was made for each template that it was proposed to merge with its corresponding target template; as I interpret the proposal, it is only proposed to merge Template:R comics from merge into Template:R from merge, etc. This is not actually a proposal to merge all these templates together, even though it appears to be one based on the way the templates are listed. Hence my partial opposition. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 04:21, 8 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support if I've understood correctly that this is fundamentally equivalent to replacing "R [media type] from [relationship between source and target article]", at least for those articles to do with comics. If we have "Redirect from alternative name", we don't need a more precise "Redirect from comic with alternative name", for example. I think I'm in agreement with BobKilcoyne.

  • Support mergers of 'R comics xyz' to equivalent 'R xyz' templates and categories. The duplicate 'comics' categories serve no useful purpose. There is no clear rationale for comics' special treatment and this is likely to lead to inconsistent tagging. Oppose adding 'comics' parameter as I have not seen any rationale for adding this. Overall, I support simplifying Rcats and not having a million ways to subcategorize them unless there is a meaningful benefit to maintenance or another aspect of the project. —Myceteae🍄‍🟫 (talk) 16:47, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
