This article needs to be merged with Lassie. Lassie was portrayed over several years. There is no reason why any one group of Lassie years needs to have its own article.--Lassiewasadog (talk) 20:29, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Disagree, again, per same reasons I gave at Talk:Lassie. This is an article about the television series, Lassie is the article about the character across all the series/films, etc. -- AnmaFinotera (talk · contribs) 20:31, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Also per same reasons at Talk:Lassie mainly that Wikipedia is not a directory.--Lassiewasadog (talk) 20:45, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

GA Nom

Came across this article yesterday and was surprised to see an article of this quality was not at least a GA. So I'm going to propose it as one today. Miyagawa (talk) 11:15, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I am reviewing this article and am impressed with how well written it is. And very interesting. My comments are the following:

• Why isn't there anything on the actual dogs that played the role of Lassie. How many, where they came from, who trained them etc.
• There are five fair use images. That is too many for an article. One, or perhaps even two can be justified, but no more than that.

Xtzou (Talk) 16:17, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

• Reduced the number of images and swapped one out to one that showed Pal and Tommy. Miyagawa (talk) 19:47, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

• The dog information is mostly included in the Lassie article, although in this article it's mostly in the three paragraphs of the casting section. Although I did realize that it was missing from the Characters and Cast section, so I added an additional listing there for dog actors as Lassie. Miyagawa (talk) 19:47, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

• Very good. It is a wonderful article. Just two very minor comments:

  Writers - nothing more to say about who they were other than McCarthyism?

  "Lassie portrait friendship ring based on the one Uncle Petrie fashions for Timmy" - on one of the Uncle Petrie fashions for Timmy?

Xtzou (Talk) 12:43, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

• I fixed the above to my suggestion " on one of the". Hope that's right. This is a wonderful and informative article. Xtzou (Talk) 14:24, 19 April 2010 (UTC)

Another GAR that's a necessity due to Wikipedia:Contributor copyright investigations/ItsLassieTime. After cutting all the content from the article done by all the socks I'm left with less than half the prose, with a lot of significant content long gone. It would take a lot of work to bring it back to GA status. If you're still unconvinced, the GA review was done by a sock of a separate banned user so it's technically invalid anyway.
