Give me some canonical references for declaring 1933 distinct from 1936. Had you not had such good grammar and formatting, I'd have just deleted this page, but here's your chance.

:I only just stumbled onto this topic, but the page does seem to be justified, if only as a reject. The copyright date on the Kick The Can shorts is 1933, but the only connection to Main Page 10 is that both pages are silent.

Give me some canonical references for declaring 1933 distinct from 1936. Had you not had such good grammar and formatting, I'd have just deleted this page, but here's your chance. — InterruptorJones[[]]

I think that whoever 198.37.16.36 is was making the distinction that Kick the Can has the date "1933" at the beginning, and is silent, and Main Page 10 is also silent, whereas toons such as Mr. Shmallow (toon) and Parsnips-A-Plenty are talkies, and Parsnips-A-Plenty is dated "1936" at the beginning. This could imply that the 1933 toons are the silent ones, and the 1936 ones are the talkies. Would this warrant dividing them into two categories, or just keep a generic "Black-and-white" category?
Speaking of which, would it make more sense, for categories such as Category:Strong Bad Email and Category:1936 to move all of the substance to the Category page, and turn the actual Strong Bad Email or 1936 page into a redirect to the Category? Once and Only Once etc, since it would also provide the listing of everything in the Category underneath. -- thejesterx 21:20, 6 Oct 2004 (MST)
