Mr Squiggle

[edit]

Mr Squiggle Stencils appeared on many Melbourne trains and stations etc, at least on the Belgrave line in around 2003. They don't seem to have been around over the last few years. Maybe the guy got busted.

Fair use rationale for Image:Mr Squiggle.jpg

[edit]

Image:Mr Squiggle.jpg 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 23:26, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Puppet stolen

[edit]

I do not know if it is worth adding to the article, but the puppet was reported to have been stolen in 2009 [1]. (I like to think that he returned to the moon instead.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dleonard (talk • contribs) 01:27, 22 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Mr Squiggle → Mr. Squiggle — Surely, this article must be renamed Mr. Squiggle (note the full-stop!), for the simple, unambiguous, and entirely irrefutable reason that it is the name on Hetherington's copyright.

Children's show

[edit]

Interesting that this is seen as a Children's show. I would have classified it more as science fiction.Deathlibrarian (talk) 01:13, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Misleading Information

[edit]

"Mr. Squiggle is Australia's longest-running children's television series" "[Playschool] is the longest-running children's show in Australia"

https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Mr._Squiggle https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Play_School_%28Australian_TV_series%29

This is confusing. I understand that the difference may only be that Play School was originally a UK tv series but it is quite confusing.

It is confusing because A) People under the age of 30 are unlikely to know Play School is not Australian and B) It's almost exactly the same sentence.

A person reading it is likely going to think they're both Australian Longest Running TV Show.

It's misleading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.171.113.152 (talk) 13:56, 29 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
