GA tip[edit]

Before someone actually reviews this (me maybe), fix the lead. It should summarize major points of the article, but now it only talks about how he looks.Sumoeagle179 11:17, 16 June 2007 (UTC)...Summarize each section of the article and if it's well written, the lead won't have foonotes, they'll be in the body.

GA Reassessment[edit]

This discussion is transcluded from Talk:Buzz (mascot)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.

I have looked over this article as a part of the GA sweeps team. Congratulations! The article still meets the criteria and will therefore remain a GA. Nikki311 21:06, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Plagiarism[edit]

It has come to my attention that the Buzz image is almost an exact replica of the image of the Markesan Hornet (mascot for Markesan High School). A section should be made that analyzes the two pictures and whether or not it is a coincidence or something that was purposefully done. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.61.24.13 (talk • contribs) 16:16, 26 February 2009

High schools copy college logos and mascots all the time. It's not really that notable. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 20:56, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It depends on the University's zealousness to defend their brand; see https://www.saturdaydownsouth.com/sec-football/rutgers-takes-legal-action-against-louisiana-high-school-over-logo/ Have a great day Mang (talk) 12:15, 26 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Older versions[edit]

Would wikipedia be the proper place to include information about past versions of Buzz? I do not want to add extraneous information to an article which does a sufficient job of explaining its topic (and its signifigance). Is there a policy somewhere I could read for guidance? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.37.171.84 (talk) 20:28, 28 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if you've got references where other editors can verify what you write, and it's relevant to the article, I don't see why not. —Disavian (^talk/_contribs) 06:31, 29 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
