Merge requests

See also: Category:Articles to be merged.

Photo girl and Violet Bazaar

Hard disagree on this. Some characters have very similar appearances to others in the Uncensored Family Album but aren't the same character. They just share the same design. The Solar Dragon 13:15, November 17, 2023 (EST)

Please don't be too hard on it (just kidding). You'd know this better, but I was trying to think of other examples. I can think of Miranda Potter and Helen Lovejoy, but sees like a very different situation since I wouldn't propose merging them nor support a merging. Violet Bazaar being the same generation as the Simpsons kids kind of makes sense she goes to the same school, but being the same article isn't stating definitively "photo girl" is or isn't Violet Bazaar, but putting it into an article with open-ended language.

Yeah, I'd rather not merge them unless we're given concrete evidence to the characters being the same. So they'll stay separate until then (which likely will never happen). The Solar Dragon 13:51, November 17, 2023 (EST)
I personally just toke Violet Bazaar as same as the photo girl, but I get any hesitancies on a couple of levels especially as the canon status of that book can be hard to nail down (plenty of examples, but Penelope Olsen and Ingrid Gurney right off the bat) plus she has only ever had a one-line in the first season so far, but (respectfully) that seems like a bit too hard standard to maintain? If there was contradicts later on, of course change it. Probably a better way to word it, but at least something within the article along the lines of at least how they share a character design with each other.

Also the Simpsons have a photograph of Violet's grandfather Mort Krupp among their family memorabilia.

You're mentioning of similar designs for characters on the family tree got me curious. James Gobel is also a classmate at Enriched Learning Center for Gifted Children, right? Snowball II (talk) 15:13, November 17, 2023 (EST)

From Krusty's Mansion To Schtickfair

Same place. Snowball II (talk) 13:15, November 22, 2023 (EST)

Mondegreen

Alouette the same song both times, but Bart just unintentionally got the lyrics wrong. Snowball II (talk) 14:45, December 28, 2023 (EST)

Two different singers, two different lyrics. The song articles should be separate. The Solar Dragon 16:08, December 28, 2023 (EST)
Different singers can sing the same song and it's only gentille and jaunty which it's part of joke on how Bart doesn't know the song beyond the first line and even does a mondegreen on that first life. Snowball II (talk) 16:44, December 28, 2023 (EST)
We have separate articles for songs, even if they're the same song, if they're sung by different people in different episodes. The Solar Dragon 16:51, December 28, 2023 (EST)
Honestly just noticed that for the first name right before you typed that out. Snowball II (talk) 16:55, December 28, 2023 (EST)

Springfield Station and Springfield Union Station

Seems like a situartion similar to Springfield Airport and Springfield International Airport. Looking at "Lisa's Substitute" and other early appearances where stuff like coloring might be a bit different, but overall still pretty similar. Snowball II (talk) 01:17, January 9, 2024 (EST)

Springfield Forest and Springfield National Forest

If Springfield Forest was created by President Theodore Roosevelt, it would be a national park and the President doesn't create state parks or municipal parks? http://www.nps.gov/thrb/learn/historyculture/trandthenpsystem.htm Snowball II (talk) 12:59, February 28, 2024 (EST)

Split requests

Anne of Cleves

Agnes Skinner is stand-in for Katherine Parr (significant older than any of this other brides at the time of their wedding and she had already twice widowed)? Snowball II (talk) 20:23, January 2, 2024 (EST)

She is referred to as Anne of Cleves in the script. The Solar Dragon 07:00, January 3, 2024 (EST)
