Talk:Loopy De Loop

Origins of the name

The first thing I thought of when I saw this character's name is that he was named after the children's song that is variously named "Looby Loo", "Loopty Loo", "Loop de loop", or "Luby Loo" (which the US Government has helpfully created a MIDI for at http://kids.niehs.nih.gov/lyrics/looby.htm).

I found an episode of the show on YouTube and the theme music is pretty generic Hanna-Barbera with no particular callbacks to the kid's song, so I'm not sure if there's a significant tie-in here, but it seems at least as plausible as any connection to an aircraft loop-the-loop... .

I do agree the "Loopy"/lupis connection is pretty clever and surely intentional, though.--NapoliRoma (talk) 14:41, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Racism! Pure evil racism!!!

His exploits would normally get him chased out of town by the very people he had helped, all for no other reason than his being a wolf??? That is a discrimination! Down with all kind of discrimination!!! Everyone are equal! Workers of the world unite!!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.196.176.156 (talk) 16:40, 11 August 2009 (UTC)

Analysis section removed - NPOV violation

A few weeks ago I happened upon an 'Analysis' section in the Yogi Bear article which struck me as being out of place given that it contained an application of Critical Theory to a subject not related to this field. Since Critical Theory is a decidedly non-neutral paradigm this was very much out of place in the article on a cartoon bear. I also noticed the section had been removed and re-instated several times with justifications which themselves violated NPOV by claiming that the material was relevant to the subject. I therefore added a note to the talk page for the article and removed the section with the admonition to justify a re-instatement in some way. The section was re-instated without justification so I removed it a second time, again asking for a justification why this clear NPOV violation should be upheld. Given the strange combination of subject matter - critical theory applied to cartoon figures - I decided to check whether this NPOV violation occurred in other articles, which it turned out it does. Since Wikipedia is not a political action platform these sections have no place here. I will therefore remove the 'Analysis' section with the stated justification. If another editor wants to revert this removal he or she should justify this in some way by explaining why an expression of political activism has a place in a Wikipedia entry on a cartoon figure.
