Categorization[]
I do not believe this article is properly categorized. Which film on the Animated Features Canon list have Chip 'n Dale appeared in? --DarshaAssant 01:54, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
- My best guess: whoever created this page copied and pasted from another page's template and forgot to change that part on the bottom. I'm no one official, but my opinion is to go ahead and change it to a category for characters from the shorts. -- TomakaLinus 14:22, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
Name[]
They are called "Chip 'n Dale" or "Chip 'n' Dale". "Chip 'n' Dale" is used in the classic cartoons and the early production stages of "Rescue Rangers". "Chip 'n Dale" is used most often in "Rescue Rangers". The full title of the cartoon is "Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers". The title of the article should be one of these spellings, though I don't have a strong opinion as to which. --DarshaAssant 01:54, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
- I agree with you completely. However, we should still have a re-direct from "Chip and Dale" to "Chip 'n' Dale" for visitors to the site who don't know the correct spelling. -- TomakaLinus 14:17, 25 May 2007 (UTC)
- I agree completely on having "Chip and Dale" as a redirect, but which should name should we use, "Chip 'n' Dale" or "Chip 'n Dale"? The arguments for using the latter is that it's the newest spelling of their name. The same argument can be used for "Chip 'n' Dale", but in reverse: "Chip 'n' Dale" is the classic spelling. Personally, I might opt for using "Chip 'n' Dale" as it is most grammatically correct where an apostrophe is used to refer to absent letter(s). The first apostrophe refers to the absent "a" and the second, the absent "d". --DarshaAssant 01:53, 26 May 2007 (UTC)
- This article hasn't been moved, and there's consensus that it should moved, so I'm going to move it to "Chip 'n' Dale".--Darsha
Name, again[]
I missed the previous discussion about renaming the article. I would agree with naming it "Chip 'n' Dale" if this article were about the property of Chip 'n' Dale and the franchise built around them. But it's about two characters: 1) Chip and 2) Dale. Encyclopedic text doesn't abbreviate the word and in the English language, and I don't think we should do it here. Thoughts? —Scott (talk) 00:17, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
