The result of the move request was: not moved (closed by non-admin page mover) Calidum 18:24, 19 November 2021 (UTC)
– I Propose we move Woody (Toy Story) to Woody, and the disambiguation page Woody be changed to Woody (disambiguation) per WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. Woody (Toy Story) monthly page view is 18,229. While Woody the disambiguation page get a monthly view of 572. Woody plant gets 4,163 monthly views. Woodland gets 7,630. SunTrap get 349 monthly views. Woody (singer) only gets 272. Woody (name) only gets 721. DJ Woody gets 187. Woody, Texas barely gets 192 monthly views. Woody, California. The only thing I see getting more views is Wood at 29,956 monthly views, but no one calls wood, when talking about its name, Woody they call it wood. Note all I did was look at the monthly average of all the articles that came from the woody disambiguation page so there could be some things I didn't see. This is where I got my info from. Kaleeb18 (talk) 02:35, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose woody is a common enough adjective, no harm is being done to searchers having (Toy Story) on the article. At the most a primary redirect. In ictu oculi (talk) 09:36, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose Page views do not prove that Woody (Toy Story) is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and may in fact be a symptom of WP:RECENTISM. (See also previous discussion in Talk:Woody § Requested move 3 November 2021) ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 09:58, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Kaleeb18, you just proposed moving Woody → Woody (disambiguation) last week and were roundly rejected (albeit that RM was only kept open for a day). Do you have a hearing problem? wbm1058 (talk) 13:00, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Wbm1058: sorry I just thought maybe this time if I did research and actually presented something Kaleeb18 (talk) 13:31, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- I also thought that some people would support because ZXCVBNM said that he thought it could be moved to just Woody. Kaleeb18 (talk) 13:38, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per the above. Now lets all go where everybody knows your name. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 09:08, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose per link I provided in the previous RM near the end of my reasoning - that does not always mean primary topic and "wood" is more common than this character. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 12:31, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. "Woody" is too generic a word to specifically refer to this character. JIP | Talk 01:44, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. Woody is far too generic of a word to refer specifically to this character. --Khajidha (talk) 17:25, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
- Support He is far more recognized as Woody within media mentions, none of the other entries seem to be as notable compared to him. There are similar fictional character articles that use a generic name such as Mario and Luigi. Should we change those titles as well if applying the same logic most of the comments here are pointing out? SuperSkaterDude45 (talk) 04:02, 15 November 2021 (UTC)
- I would say, yes, we should change those. --Khajidha (talk) 18:03, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose, too many choices. My first thought would be Woody Allen, or Woody Woodpecker, then you've got your Woody Hayes, and so on. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:10, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Randy Kryn: Yes, but in WP:PRIMARYTOPIC it says that a primary topic is not based on what you think of first Kaleeb18 (talk) 01:40, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Mia Farrow would differ. Randy Kryn (talk) 14:06, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Randy Kryn: Yes, but in WP:PRIMARYTOPIC it says that a primary topic is not based on what you think of first Kaleeb18 (talk) 01:40, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oppose. This is a sensible proposal and I see where the nom is coming from. However, we have the issue, as pointed out in the previous RM, of long-term significance (which favours the generic meanings of the word over the name of the character). And there's also no primary topic with respect to usage: the pageviews can only serve as vague hints to what readers are looking for (because the vast majority of those views come from following links from other articles, not from direct reader searches). If you look at the WP:Clickstream data for the dab page, on the other hand, you'd see the actual proportions of desired articles for the readers who do land on the primary title. For the month of March, the link to the character was followed 146 times, the link to Woody (name): 112 times, Woody Allen: 35, Woody plant: 24, and Woodie: 27 (there's no data for links that got clicked fewer than 10 times). So, the fictional character is sought by about 32–43% of readers, which is well below the threshold for a primary topic. – Uanfala (talk) 15:00, 17 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Uanfala:Thank you for your response I now see why we shouldn't move to the article to Woody. Now how do we close this discussion? Kaleeb18 (talk) 02:22, 18 November 2021 (UTC)
- In principle, you can withdraw the nomination (you can just close the discussion as "withdrawn": see Wikipedia:Simple RM closing instructions for the technicalities). However, this should normally be done only if there have been no editors supporting the proposal. There was one here though, so it's probably best to let someone else close it. RM discussions normally run for seven days before being closed, so there's just a day or two left. – Uanfala (talk) 12:39, 18 November 2021 (UTC)

5x expanded by Kaleeb18 (talk) and VladimirBoys (talk). Nominated by Kaleeb18 (talk) at 14:06, 13 November 2021 (UTC).
- Hi Kaleeb18, unfortunately I do not think this article is eligible for DYK. You'd need to have expanded the text content by 5x in length, which I am not seeing in the page history. You'll also need to resolve the many tags for additional citations and expansion in the article. Your best bet would be to get it to good article status and renominate then. See the DYK rules for more details. PS: I removed the image from this nomination, fair use (ie. copyrighted) images are permitted in articles only - Dumelow (talk) 14:35, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Ok that's fine if it can't be nominated and thanks for the suggestion. I'm also wondering what 5x or five fold means like how do I know if an article has been expanded 5 fold. Kaleeb18 (talk) 16:28, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Kaleeb18, no worries and good luck with the article. The expansion is based on the number of characters (ie. letters, spaces etc.) in the article before you started work on it and the number after you've finished. You can use a script like Wikipedia:Did you know/DYKcheck but I just copy the article text into an online character counter (there's loads of websites if you do a Google search for "character counter" or similar) - Dumelow (talk) 16:40, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Oh ok, thanks again. Kaleeb18 (talk) 16:44, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- There's also a handy Prosesize gadget that you can install from your Wikipedia preferences. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 23:37, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- @ClaudineChionh: is there an article describing hiw that gadget works or what it does? Kaleeb18 (talk) 13:55, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
- A week before nomination, the page was 26257 characters. Now it is 15914, so it has shrunk. You would have to get to about 132000 characters to pass the 5x, so not really feasible. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:01, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Graeme Bartlett: yeah I forgot we removed a setion called relationships, which talked about Woody's relationship with everyone in the movie, was completely unnecessary and we got rid of 16,000 bytes by getting rid of that section. Kaleeb18 (talk) 13:47, 14 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Kaleeb18: Yes – the Prosesize link I gave earlier. ClaudineChionh (talk – contribs) 05:47, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

I'll take this one on. I've only watched Toy Story and Toy Story 4 (well, I watched Toy Story 3 but forgot what happens) so apologies for any plot-related mistakes. Expect some comments by Sunday. Will try not to screw this up Pamzeis (talk) 05:58, 15 December 2021 (UTC)

Prose
edit- Toy Story: The Musical should be italicised (all instances)
Lead

— this may imply that Disney and Pixar separately released films involving Woody. I would recommend changing it to Disney/Pixar for consistency with other articles.animated films and short films Toy Story.
→ Toy Story franchise. (for conciseness and to remove ambiguity)He is a cowboy, pullstring rag doll, and is one of the main protagonist characters along with Buzz Lightyear.
— I do not see how these two ideas are related and that makes the flow awkward. I would recommend splitting the sentences (i.e. He is a cowboy, pullstring rag doll; Woody is one of the main protagonist characters along with Buzz Lightyear.)He is mainly voiced by actor Tom Hanks, with his brother, Jim Hanks, voicing him in video games and other merchandise.
— it is not said what Tom voices so it is unclear what "other merchandise" isby Oscar-nominated animator and Disney legend Bud Luckey
— I do not see the need to mention that Luckey is Oscar-nominated, nor that he is a Disney legend per MOS:PUFFERY. In any case, if this is necessary, legend should be capitalised.as well as the Howdy Doody puppets from the 1950s show Howdy Doody

— no comma?- Comment @Pamzeis: Since your unsure whether a comma should be there or not I removed it but someone else has added the comma back so I’m just going to leave the comma their. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 19:16, 10 January 2022 (UTC)

→ When Bonnie's family decides (MOS:PLOT)He decided he would remain
→ He decides he will remain (MOS:PLOT)- The fourth paragraph discusses too much of the fourth film's plot and barely touches the others
- A five-paragraph lead is far too long. For an article of this length (19kB), I would expect two or three paragraphs per MOS:LEADLENGTH

— the should be capitalisedToy Show, dressed ... open the show
— kinda repetitiveIn 2019 at
— comma after 2019- I would prefer for the third and fourth paragraphs to have an "introduction sentence" too because they just seem to come out of nowhere
- There seems to be a massive amount of quoting in this section. Not only does this get rather boring after some time, but this can lead to WP:OVERQUOTING, which causes potential COPYVIOs; the detector shows a 50%+ similarity. Try paraphrasing and trimming the quotes to reduce this.
Sources
editReliability
edit- What makes the following reliable sources:
- hype.my
- MagicalMountain.net
- Moviequotedb
- thefactsite
- The Theme Song
- Orlando Informer
- Let me look into this but I think Orlando Informer should be good and i replaced hype.my in case its not reliable. ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 19:33, 19 December 2021 (UTC)
- I asked WP:RSN if Orlando Informer was fine and it looks like its fine to use it in the way I did. I was able to replace the hype.my reference and only one of thefactsite. I cant find a good replacement for Moviequotedb and The Theme Song. Im trying to figure out where in the world the interview MagicalMountain.net is getting the info from but i cant figure it out.
- @Pamzeis:I would like to ask tho. For something like thefactsite its being used as a reference for the sentence that says Woody makes a cameo in in the outtakes of A Bugs Life. If I cant find a better source do I just delete that sentence? as well as the one that says Woody is in the intro for Buzz Lightyear of Star Command? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 22:16, 20 December 2021 (UTC)
- I would recommend doing so as my view is that if it's not notable to be in reliable sources, it's not worth a mention

Verifiability
edit- Quotes in the lead need citations per WP:LEADCITE
- The quote about Woody's last name isn't supported by the article
- fn 3: which bit mentions that the Disney execs "they left creative control to Pixar and sent negative feedback about the draft"?
As mentioned in Toy Story 2, his construction includes an "original hand-painted face, natural dyed-blanket stitched vest", and "hand-stitched poly-vinyl hat".
— if this is mentioned in the film, then it should be cited using {{cite AV media}}Woody also wears an empty gun holster at his belt.
— this sentence is unsourced- Comment Why does this one need to be sourced? it also shows that in the infobox picture. (I found a source to use just wondering why it needs to be sourced :) ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 14:47, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
- I guess WP:CAPTAINOBVIOUS may apply, but my biggest qualm is that, from the image, it may be unclear that it is specifically an empty gun holster
- I would like to help this GAN. I did removed every unreliable sources you said Pamzeis, but if Kaleeb18 refused, I think its safe for this to fail. 2001:4455:1A9:E100:2D80:8F3A:6CD5:3C83 (talk) 10:49, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

edit- Per MOS:BIB, #Bibliography is discouraged
- I'm iffy on the fair use rationale for File:Sheriff Woody.png. It's very brief and doesn't seem to satisfy all of the WP:NFCC policies. See File:Elsa from Disney's Frozen.png for an example of a character fair use rationale
- File:Sheriff Woody.png and File:Concept art of Woody's original design as a evil ventriloquist dummy.jpg should have Woody (Toy Story) as the article in which they are used, not Sheriff Woody

Second look
editTom Hanks brother
— missing possessivevoices him in Lamp Life
— Lamp Life should be in italics and explained (either with a description or wikilink)Unkrich stated in his Twitter feed "Woody's actual full name is 'Woody Pride', and has been since the earliest days of developing the original Toy Story".
— this quote isn't mentioned in the article and is likely WP:UNDUE weight in the lead- The fourth paragraph still focusses too much on the fourth film, with barely any mention of the others

- No, the quote box is fine I’ll handle it. Also @Pamzeis: what is not a reliable source and what is not in focus? And what does I can’t put a finger on it mean? ― Kaleeb18TalkCaleb 12:38, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
- To answer your first question, Inside the Magic is the unreliable source and the undue quote in the lead is the focus problem. I review the same version without acknowledging changes... so IDK what the article looks like now. Not being able to put a finger on something means... I can't quite put my finger on the definition but basically there seems to be something missing in the quote, but I can't determine what is missing. Ping me once you've resolved all the comments, BTW. Pamzeis (talk) 12:43, 18 January 2022 (UTC)
