No, I thought we had decided to cover what was made by Cartoon Network? I'm okay having this as a single page for reference that it aired on Cartoon Network, but this page is in general, even to the point of when it began on another channel. The dates should be at least when it started on Cartoon Network, which makes it harder, but more specific to what we're doing. -- RadioactiveCyberDude (talk) 07:35, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
I'd be fine with also covering Dragon Ball Z, King of the Hill, Family Guy, My Adventures with Superman, a partial grab of what Cartoon Network has aired, but only as brief overviews of what they've contributed to the channel. RadioactiveCyberDude (talk) 10:49, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- I wasn't so sure if I were be able to cover it like this, but if you insist that leaving it as a single page is fine for the merit that it started on a different network, then I have no choice but to make a few compromises. It did air on Fox Kids originally, but I should also include the airdates for when it originally reaired on Cartoon Network (if any). The individual episodes I might sort out later, but for now, its only just a proposal for what I have in mind. -- QuestJ65 (talk) 14:25, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- Also, I might be expanding this later on the merit that it's made by the Warner Bros. animation division. If it's something that Warners (and its affiliates) made or belongs in their library, there's a likely chance that it gets its own page and some. Controversial, I know, but just a thought. -- QuestJ65 (talk) 14:37, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- It just takes away from Cartoon Network Wiki. I feel that this is the wiki we were both wanting and we had both agreed on Discord what the intention with the site was, and now you're doing this, and now I'm lost. I feel like we might as well have requested a Warner Bros. Wiki, instead, because then at least it encompasses both, but then also more than what both of us would've signed up for (although it is amusing if we did a Warner Bros. Wiki and was able to cover the original live-action Urkel and his animated counterparts). It's funny because the head of Grifkuba sounded interested in My Adventures with Superman, which might get us a Warner Bros. Animation Wiki later, although they only expressed interest in that one show. We both wanted a Cartoon Network Wiki, when it was decided that Hanna-Barbera Wiki couldn't justify expansion into other areas, obviously. But now we're doing exactly the same with Cartoon Network Wiki. I guess I will just see where you're going with this. RadioactiveCyberDude (talk) 17:10, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- Come to think of it, I guess I went a little overboard when I said that I wanted to expand it later in the future. I originally planned to go in-depth with this since it is connected to Justice League (which was created for Cartoon Network), but I guess I'll have to leave this as a single page for now unless we change our minds about that. -- QuestJ65 (talk) 17:57, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- Okay, to be fair since this is a group effort (currently only between two people), I have been watching CN promos for the series to see how integrated they made it, and while not as intergrated as Tim Daly voicing Superman in a Coast to Coast bumper with Space Ghost, they are special enough to make it feel like Batman could be a CN show. But I do think it's a good idea that we try to focus on the CN dates, rather than the Fox/WB dates, although we can obviously include that where it's important, since it didn't begin on CN.

- With that said, since I mentioned Superman, would this mean that we would be allowed to cover that series? And what about when Wakko shaved off Johnny Bravo's head, or when Slappy Squirrel spoke to Jonny Quest? Would that mean we cover Animaniacs? And I hope this also means we can cover the WBA shows made for CN since the 2000s, like ThunderCats, ThunderCats Roar, Teen Titans Go, the first two seasons of Young Justice, Beware the Batman, My Adventures with Superman? And the list goes on. It could. There still is Dragon Ball Z. Even though that was "lent" to CN. Although, interestingly enough there was that episode of the Johnny Bravo call-in show, where Johnny had to describe the events of a DBZ episode to a girl who wanted to watch it.

- I also forgot about Real Adventures of Jonny Quest, as Cartoon Network went as so far to add their logo to the title card whenever it aired on their channel, and since it had more leverage then TNT and TBS, even had the power to cancel it. -- RadioactiveCyberDude (talk) 21:31, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- Beats me. I was wondering how most of these shows you've mentioned fit within the context of our website. -- QuestJ65 (talk) 23:48, 3 June 2025 (UTC)
- You know what, I've changed my mind because I've been thinking of the loosey goosey way Cartoon Network have decided to air newer WBA shows like Scooby-Doo and Guess Who? I'm not even sure they did every episode. It's all exciting, but I really think we should just stick primarily to what Cartoon Network have created themselves (including Williams Street stuff). We can have a standalone page for series like Batman, but i don't care to cover it in full. Leave that to a Warner Bros. Wiki. Just my final say on this. -- RadioactiveCyberDude (talk) 10:42, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
