[edit] Hanna-Barbera still exists!

Hanna-Barbera still exists as a name just like ELP Communications. H-B keeps all the trademark names and cartoons such as The Flintstones and Scooby-Doo. King Shadeed 19:27, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The STAR

• Who created/helped with the creation of the "Swirling Star"? 67.41.213.180 04:55, 25 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Logos

I can only assume that Tregoweth is too young to have watched Hanna Barbera every Saturday morning as a child. Logo Fatishism??? Get a Life. As you can see from the gallery, the logo changed over time. This is a vital part of Hanna Barbera's legacy. And at the end of every episode, we were told to hang on through the commercials for more of (Cartoon's Name), and at 8, I believed them, and what was there was credits and the end logo. The Wiki obviously can't host every episode of every Hanna Barbera cartoon, but it can show the logos, with dates, to help nail down people memories of these cartoons. Don't delete information out of some insane puritanical goofiness. --Mickdansforth 22:05, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Very first logo?

The article claims that Hanna-Barbera's first logo came out in 1966, but doesn't the "An H-B Enterprises Cartoon" (can be seen on Pixie and Dixie and Mr. Jinks, Huckleberry Hound, and some episodes of Yogi Bear,) message count as a logo or "A Hanna-Barbera production" (not the one shown in 1966, this one was much earlier and it can be seen on Snagglepuss, Yogi Bear and a few other cartoons)?

[edit] Use of computers

I'm curious about this sentence from the Joseph Barbera article in Ephraim Katz's Encyclopedia of Film:

"In 1957, Hanna and Barbera left MGM and set up their own production company, Hanna-Barbera, a virtual factory turning out television cartoons at an astonishing rate through a computerized numbering system."

Does anyone know any details about exactly when and how the company began using such a system? The sentence implies that it was unusual at the time. Richard K. Carson 07:40, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism to Hanna-Barbera articles by IP address 89.24x.xxx.xxx

89.241.84.208 has been adding false DVD release information to many H-B articles. This edit is quite ridiculous; DVD Releases of Cattanooga Cats have not yet been announced though scheduled for 2015. First, if they haven't been announced then there would be no release dates; and second... 2015?!

This appears to be the same persistent vandal who uses a dynamic IP 89.24x.xxx.xxx, they usually just make minor, silly spelling and grammar changes like this one, or here.

I'll start reverting these. If anyone watches Hanna-Barbera articles they might look out for this editor, because their false edits aren't as obvious as some vandals. (In the interests of good faith, if, by some possibility, this anonymous editor does actually have a source for this dubious information, please provide proof here.) Pufnstuf 18:40, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Hb-viacom79 0001.jpg

Image:Hb-viacom79 0001.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 23:27, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] similarities

It almost sounds like "Hubba Hubba Inc.". —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.78.168.148 (talk) 13:54, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
