Reorganizing

[edit]

If there are no objections, I'm going to go ahead and make this page a character page and create a new "Henry Huggins (series)" page to talk about the books themselves. Another idea is to combine the Ramona and Henry sections under the heading "Klickitat series" since most of the characters overlap. Zenpickle 14:17, 1 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems that this article is encompassing the entire series at the expense of https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Huggins_(book). instead of the character, personally, i'd like to see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Huggins contain all related information on the character, the book, and the series in related sections. or alternativley https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Huggins_(book) should contain the lion's share of this particular article.

consensus? should i WP:BOLD?

Removal of phrase

[edit]

Once again I have removed this phrase, "Henry Huggins is a great family safe, exeptional, and has a good moral to the story." I tried to contact the person who put it in after the first removal, but they don't have a user page or anything, so I don't know how to contact them. Anyway, the statement may be true, but it violates Wikipedia's rule of using a neutral point of view. It is an opinion, and opinion doesn't belong in an encyclopedia like WP. Please don't put it back in. Thanks!Tlqk56 (talk) 22:51, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Henry Huggins was not in Middle School or High School

[edit]

I just edited the page to purge it of misinformation claiming that Henry was in middle or high school. The only thing that I can think of that might lead someone to believe such a thing was a mention in one book of there being ninth-grade students at Henry's school. If you assume that American schools have always been organized as they are now (k-5 or k-6 Elementary/6 or 7 through 8 or 9 Junior High/upper grades high school) than you might think that Henry went to junior high. However, junior high is a relatively new invention, and at the mid 20th century, many elementary schools went to the eight grade, and a few went to the ninth grade. And if you are familiar with the Henry Huggins books and the Ramona books, you will be aware that Henry's school also had a kindergarten class. And if you actually read the books, you are aware that Henry spends the entire school day being taught all of his academic subject by one teacher in one classroom, as expected in elementary school. If the article is reverted, consider it vandalism--Drvanthorp (talk) 18:29, 22 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
