Talk:Ricochet Rabbit

Let's replace Breezly and Sneezly with Ricochet Rabbit reruns

I find it odd how in the middle of The Peter Potamus Show, HB replaced Breezly and Sneezly with Ricochet Rabbit and Droop-a-Long reruns (originally from The Magilla Gorilla Show). -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 23:56, 16 February 2021 (UTC)

I mean, for the Yogi Bear shorts on The Huckleberry Hound Show, there actually was a reason, they gave Yogi his own show and replaced him with new characters, Hokey Wolf and Ding-a-Ling. But here, there wasn't an actual reason (as far as I'm aware). -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 00:02, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

First appearance

Should we have the year the character first appeared in on the first appearance? For an example "HW: Tricks and Treats (1961)". -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 21:27, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

I think that may be overkill. It's probably overkill having it in the reference as it is. -- MisterJames (talk) 23:05, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Maybe we could have it in the infobox. -- MisterJames (talk) 23:05, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

That's what I meant. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 23:06, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

In that case, okay. -- MisterJames (talk) 23:07, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

I tried it out on three different articles, Ricochet Rabbit, Loopy De Loop and Dirty Dalton. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 23:13, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

Looks good. I'll be adding that too. -- MisterJames (talk) 23:22, 21 March 2021 (UTC)

What about characters who only have one appearance? Should that be added just so we can list the year? -- MisterJames (talk) 15:51, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

No idea, either we can add a "only appearance" line on the infobox for one time characters, then have the year or just have it outside of the infobox somewhere on the page. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 15:28, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

Some characters will undoubtedly never appear again, but I'm okay with still using "first appearance," unless that would be confusing to the reader. -- MisterJames (talk) 17:49, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

Yeah that fits, I doubt characters like Mrs. Mumbly, Farmer Smith and J.P. Goldstone will appear again, they were only used for one episode (or short). Maybe have that first appearance section on their infobox and mark it as their only appearance? That or we could work without marking it as their only appearance. -- Snoopy The Dog (talk) 18:15, 23 March 2021 (UTC)

I tested both, and decided on adding an "Only appearance" row.
