[edit] General

Discussion about the title of this article and its recent change can be found at Wikipedia talk:Naming conventions (acronyms)#Changing article titles from XXXXX (US) to XXXXX (United States). Feel free to contribute. -- hike395 16:57, 27 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dairy Queen publicity

ISTR that DQ dropped Dennis images very soon after Ketcham died, so it's possible that the deal whereby they were licensed was with Ketcham himself and not his syndicators. But the only way to tell for sure would be to contact both DQ head office and whoever's in charge of the strip. knoodelhed 19:21, 8 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Henry = Hank?

Since Dennis's father has (nearly) the same name as the strip's creator, is there supposed to be any idea that Ketcham based the strip on his own son? -- Toby Bartels 09:42, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Dennis (The Pickle)?

I don't remember the U.S. Dennis ever being called "The Pickle." Was this a U.K. only thing? Kevrob 21:39, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

Yes. Because there is a separate strip in the UK called "Dennis the Menace". So the US strip was given that title in the UK. ---Emb021 Nov 17 2006

[edit] Info box

I filled up the info box, but I am unable to do anything about the beano strip title on the top. If I replace it with anything else the box disappears. Also someone will have to fill in the issue no, currently I have put the number 1 there since I am unable to remove the entry.--PremKudvaTalk 09:58, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

What issue number should it be? Also, I've replaced the Beano template with a non-template table for the time being. Maybe we could just make another template, but I don't know any article that needs one of these right now so I won't do that. Haplolology 22:48, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
