Bo Peep

How is there no refferance to is there no refferance to Bo Peep in the article? JDDJS (talk) 03:46, 14 June 2010 (UTC)

That character is mentioned in the infobox, at least. Jusdafax 05:39, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

It appears that is no longer the case with the info box. Someone has seen fit to delete the mention. Jus da fax 11:25, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Cropped image and removed pullstrings thing

I've cropped the image (word of warning, the image looked weird for me until I cleared my cache for whatever reason). Sorry if this ruins the fair use rationale or anything. I've also removed the pullstrings quotes section, as it's mostly just quotes (we have Wikiquote for that) and trivia. Harry Blue5 (talk) 22:31, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

Someone put back the quotes section. i want to add a citation needed tag^{[citation needed]} to the idea that Woody's "snake in my boot" was ever anything but literal. Just because a phrase is sometimes a figure of speech (the cop sees everything as black and white) does not mean the phrase is always a reference to that meaning (this camera shows everything in black and white). The cited source only describes "snake in the boot" as a reference to drunkenness without mentioning Toy Story.

i also wonder if some of those other quotes aren't actually pullstring quotes, but things the Woody marionette said on "Woody's Roundup", or things Andy's toy made up to distract Sid from lighting Buzz's fuse.

I can find no source for the "snake" catchphrase having any hidden meaning, so I think it's better off just being removed, but I'll wait for others to weigh in. --Fru1tbat (talk) 13:48, 20 March 2018 (UTC)

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review after discussing it on the closer's talk page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

The result of the move request was: moved. (closed by non-admin page mover) SkyWarrior 01:29, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

Sheriff Woody → Woody (Toy Story) – It is a much better name for the article and some people have not heard the term Sheriff Woody as you can see in talk:woody Kaleeb18 (talk) 22:59, 4 November 2021 (UTC)

This is a contested technical request (permalink). 162 etc. (talk) 01:04, 5 November 2021 (UTC)

Not a technical request, but I would support this move. Rarely referred to as "Sheriff Woody" as a proper phrase, much more commonly as just Woody. -- Wikipedical (talk) 01:07, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
@Wikipedical: The technical part is that they have a redirect page called Woody (Toy Story) that redirects them to Sheriff Woody so I cant move the page because we need to delete thst redirect psge firdt Kaleeb18 (talk) 12:22, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
Support per WP:COMMONNAME.--Ortizesp (talk) 04:20, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
Support per WP:COMMONNAME. In fact, maybe it could simply be moved to Woody as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC and Woody moved to Woody (disambiguation)?_{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 09:58, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
Yes that is what I tried but it did not work. I put exactly what you said on the talk page of Woody and it got opposed Kaleeb18 (talk) 12:19, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
To be fair, that move request was both malformed and had no actual rationale. It should have been a dual move request listed on the character's page as well, and it should have had evidence the character was primary topic by page views and significance. _{ZXCVBNM (TALK)} 01:46, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
is there a possibility you could do that because im still new to Wikipedia @Zxcvbnm: Kaleeb18 (talk) 11:34, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
Support. No one ever calls him "Sheriff Woody", he's just known as Woody. JIP | Talk 11:16, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
Support as much more likely search term and per WP:COMMONNAME. Ifnord (talk) 13:31, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
Support, specifically through ZXCVBNM's arguments. SuperSkaterDude45 (talk) 00:48, 5 November 2021 (UTC)
Support - By checking online scripts, "Sheriff Woody" was rarely mentioned in the dialogue for the first two films (only once by Andy in the first and mostly in Woody's Roundup TV series in the second) and not mentioned once in the final two. I also agree that the article name should be Woody per massview analysis, ignoring all irrelevant entries including Linux which tops that list. Iggy (Swan) (Contribs) 09:32, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
