Talk:List of clowns

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The section "Fictional Clowns" seems to contain many actual clown performers. If the named clown has been performed by one or more actors in actual performance situations (TV, stage, movies, etc.) then they are not fictional. On the other hand, how should the clowns of Pagliacci be described? They are characters in an opera an not clown performers. Suggestions? Bondolo 02:30, 27 January 2007 (UTC).

What about Frumpy The Clown? A comic strip clown, but a fictional clown, none the less. 07:56, 4 January 2008 (UTC)07:56, 4 January 2008 (UTC)07:56, 4 January 2008 (UTC)~

[edit] John Wayne Gacy

The man is famous as being "The Killer Clown". He belongs here someplace. But this isn't my baby. Where's the appropriate place to slip him in?ChristinaDunigan 23:21, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

He's famous for being a killer, not for being a clown. Rzrscm 17:33, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

If I find a reference to "The Killer Clown" and want to know to whom it refers this does seem like a reasonably good place to start though. bondolo 20:13, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
