Existance of Polly as a character SEEN in the show...
[edit]I have {{fact}} tagged Polly in the character list, since although I know she has been spoken about in the show, I have never seen her in an episode, nor can I find pictures of her on the internet, despite using 3 seperate image related search engines. If someone could provide a picture of this character, or a source to show whereabouts in the programme she actually, physically appeared and was visible, I will take the fact tag off. Till then, sorry, no snowball! Thor Malmjursson 13:54, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
Tweenies on Indosiar (Indonesia)
[edit]Contrary to what was stated on the History page, Indosiar in fact showed the series up to and including Tuesday, October 17, 2006 as proven here:
http://program.indosiar.com/prog_jadwal.htm?A=1&fldYear=2006&fldMonth=10&yy=2006&mm=10&dd=17
The network has since dropped the series as of Wednesday, October 18, 2006 and the listings page doesn't show Tweenies as airing again on the channel in the near future. Bluenoser
Re: Izzles - Purple and yellow fur??? I think not...!
[edit]I just changed the information concerning Izzles in the article, which stated that she had Purple and Yellow fur. I looked at the enlarged version of the photo in the infobox on the right, and its quite clear to me that she has purple, yes...But the other colour is either white or light grey (possibly even silver). So I have amended the article unless anyone can prove otherwise. Thor Malmjursson 13:05, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Tweenies Together.jpeg
[edit]![](http://178.128.105.246/content-http-upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/f/f7/Nuvola_apps_important.svg/70px-Nuvola_apps_important.svg.png)
Image:Tweenies Together.jpeg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:58, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Article name
[edit]If the show's name is The Tweenies, shouldn't this also be the article's name, with "Tweenies" redirecting to it...? 212.84.120.168 (talk) 11:18, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
red links
[edit]i just clicked on this page, and i know i wont do it again so shud b said here incase there r regular lookers... there r ALOT of red links on this page, and they shud b fixed or taken out because they make the page look very messy —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.64.109 (talk) 19:52, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
Characters
[edit]Is it possible for there to be a pic of the Tweenies, and underneath have their names are listed left to right (as there is with wikipedia's Teletubbies page), becasue at the moment I can't tell (from this page or the bbc's own website) which character has which name--TimothyJacobson (talk) 13:22, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
- Specifically the one I want to know the name of is the Purple one with orange ears and green hair--TimothyJacobson (talk) 13:06, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
What source for Tweenies' ages?
[edit]What source can we cite for the ages given. Bella's is certainly wrong! These are pre-school kids.
Ditto all the detail on their families?
If it can't be sourced it should be deleted. Daisyabigael (talk) 19:29, 23 April 2012 (UTC)
Oogieloves
[edit]The "Oogieloves" are being promoted heavily for a forthcoming film, and they look like an Americanization of the Tweenies. Kenn Viselman, who marketed Teletubbies and Thomas the Tank Engine to the US market, is likely to be aware of the Tweenies -- yet this appears to be licensed from a company called "BBAM" (presumably, a holding company for the Big Balloon Adventure Movie production) and not from Maclauchlan & co. Is anybody aware of any comparisons or legal news items yet? Mrstonky (talk) 22:26, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
Articles for individual tweenies?
[edit]While stub-sorting I've just come across an unreferenced, orphan, stub for Milo (Tweenie). It has been a redirect previously but an IP editor has created this instead, and has done the same for Bella (Tweenie) and Fizz (Tweenie). I leave it to Tweenies enthusiasts to decide whether:
- You have separate articles on the Tweenies, in which case they should probably be at Milo (Tweenies), etc, rather than "... (Tweenie)", and they need links from Tweenies#Characters, and links from the dab pages such as Milo
- or, you revert these to redirects (might be worth adding the extra actors' names for Milo, which aren't in the main Tweenies article).
It's not a topic I'm particularly interested in, so I'll sort that stub and move away now. PamD 13:26, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
Removed erroneous reference to show moving to ITV
[edit]Removed a reference claiming The Tweenies would move to ITV in June 2012, which didn't happen and, I imagine, was never going to. The source reference was given as "Tweenies Wiki" which presumably meant this page http://tweenies.fandom.com/wiki/Tweenies:_2012_Return which itself appears to be a work of fiction CupawnTae (talk) 13:11, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- That entire site is uncitable per WP:SPS. Digifiend (talk) 14:05, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
Merge of character articles
[edit]Four character articles. Perma-stubs that aren't going anywhere, they'd be better merged into one article.
Andy Dingley (talk) 11:09, 18 October 2012 (UTC)
- Support merge - unless these characters are far more complex than they appear, there is not enough scope for standalone articles. --Jameboy (talk) 16:15, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
- Support - though for what it's worth, an IP sockpuppet has jumped the gun and merged all but Milo. JohnInDC (talk) 18:55, 3 December 2012 (UTC)
- Support merge - I agree a merge could be good for the articles to make it easier. (W-E (talk) 21:21, 17 March 2013 (UTC))
Images
[edit]Do images of the subject of this article have any value? Or should they simply (and all of them) be removed and deleted immediately, as Werieth contends ? Andy Dingley (talk) 21:13, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
- I never stated that they serve no purpose. I stated that 4 non-free files (1 per character) isnt acceptable via policy. 1 Group shot can do the same thing. Werieth (talk) 21:15, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
- So where's your group shot? All you've done so far is blanking and edit-warring. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:22, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
- take your pick and upload it The burden is on those who want to use the file. Werieth (talk) 21:38, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
- So where's your group shot? All you've done so far is blanking and edit-warring. Andy Dingley (talk) 21:22, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
Tweenies US Actors
[edit]Why did you remove my edits? Ladybu925 (talk) 01:23, 2 June 2018 (UTC)
- Because Tweenies is a British TV series and it should focus on the British version only. CuteDolphin712 (talk) 16:52, 25 February 2020 (UTC)
lizard-like ?
[edit]Who says they are lizard-like? Is there a source for this? I tried a quick Google and can't find any reliable sources calling them lizard-like. Adpete (talk) 23:48, 6 August 2019 (UTC)
- I removed it. Adpete (talk) 07:11, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
Merger of Tweenies: Game Time and Tweenies: Doodles' Bones
[edit]I propose that Tweenies: Game Time and Tweenies: Doodles' Bones be merged into this article as the games are not individually notable. Dominicmgm (talk) 14:22, 10 April 2021 (UTC)
I personally agree with this because it would bring obscure articles in this article for easier reading11tsFound (talk) 11:50, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- For Game Time,
Merger complete. Klbrain (talk) 05:57, 4 September 2022 (UTC)
