- @LunaEclipse: sorry, I made a mistake. The source for ALT4 says that Goose "hadn't worked a lot with 3D", not that she never had worked with it. My mistake. I've fixed the article accordingly. Skyshiftertalk 23:18, 18 May 2024 (UTC)
- Approving ALT1 then. 🌙Eclipse (talk) (contribs) 11:23, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
- What about the other hooks LunaEclipse? ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 13:26, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- Cartoon Brew is reliable per WP:TOON/R, the hooks cited to Forbes are fine per WP:ABOUTSELF, In The Know should be fine as it is owned by Yahoo (reliable per WP:RSP) and Comics Beat is also reliable (see this discussion). These hooks are also good to go. lunaeclipse (talk) (contribs) 15:01, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

Adult animated?
editI've seen several sources call it adult animated and Gooseworx herself admits that older teens and adults were the target audience.
Should we put that in the lead? Turtletennisfogwheat (talk) 10:36, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- The series does contain several adult themes such as profanity, existential dread, etc, therefore I would say we should. SleepDeprivedGinger (talk) 13:39, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- Well, the profanity is censored and existential dread is something found in something like Puss in Boots: The Last Wish and that's a kids film. So I wouldn't necessarily use those as reasons to call it "adult animated". Goose and GLITCH did clarify however that older audiences like teens and adults were the target demographic. So there's our proof. Turtletennisfogwheat (talk) 02:19, 11 July 2024 (UTC)
Main Characters
editIt has been strongly hinted that some of the show's main characters will "abstract" and as such, be written out of the show in future episodes. Do we have a plan for what we will do with their Wikipedia bios when (or if) that happens? 2603:6010:8B00:44FF:E090:3B8E:C517:2575 (talk) 18:59, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- In that scenario, the bios will most likely stay the same (doing otherwise would be unnecessary spoilers, with mentions of them abstracting going in the episode summaries). For example, Gumigoo's bio doesn't need to mention anything about him being deleted because it's in the episode 2 plot summary. SleepDeprivedGinger (talk) 20:49, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
Zooble's Changing Design
editI've noticed a rather interesting feature with Zooble: parts of her character design change in each episode! Is this worth stating in her character bio? 2603:6010:8B00:44FF:E090:3B8E:C517:2575 (talk) 22:35, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
- I don't see why not. I'll add this to it now. SleepDeprivedGinger (talk) 22:39, 19 August 2024 (UTC)
