Splitting proposal for the Mattel Television section

The result of this discussion was split Intrisit (talk) 23:18, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In case no one knows this: Mattel Creations become Mattel Television on February 5th, 2019. At the time of Creations, a confused user/contributor proposed a splitting off into a new article of its own, but I gotta say, Spshu was bang on with the narrow referencing call as I want to call it at that/the time. Maybe, in terms of announcing new productions and releasing than actual movements within that division. Three years later, with the division name change, I have to argue very well, the referencing has "gone bonkers", especially after the "Barbie Princess Adventure" TV movie release on Netflix on September 1st, 2020. In light of this, I propose that section Mattel Television in this article be split into a separate article of its own. Its contents on this article have sufficient references to warrant a standalone article. What's your verdict: BBFanToys, Cannolis, GarfieldFTW and Spshu? Fooliard (talk) 16:12, 8 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. A 'Mattel Television' standalone page is very much needed at this point in time, especially given the volume of references that have come to light in the last 3 years, as you've mentioned. Thank you for spearheading this project. BBFanToys (talk) 16:52, 15 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. The article stands to run WP:TOOLONG if anything more is added to the Mattel Television section, and right now it reads like two articles mashed together anyway. ItsMackie (talk) 17:45, 25 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Already done – and there's more to come!! The consensus may be done but WP, Mattel and the likes roll on!! Thanks for the movements and thoughts!! Intrisit (talk) 23:18, 15 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Citations 11 and 12 are out of date and do not support conclusion in artilce

The line "It (Mattel) is the world's second largest toy maker in terms of revenue, after The Lego Group.[11][12]" is no longer accurate based on audited financial records filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Suggest updating the sentence to not contain a present tense statement of fact.
