wtf is wrong with people like slutty and sexy do NOT belong in this topic........!!!!!!!!!!!
Above undated message substituted from Template:Dashboard.wikiedu.org assignment by PrimeBOT ( talk) 17:48, 16 January 2022 (UTC) ==Claymation vs. Clay animation==00 I took the liberty of revising the previous entry in order to clarify the difference between clay animation and other forms of object animation. The term ‘claymation’ or clay animation is frequently (and regrettably) misused to describe all forms of object animation, whether plastic or not.
As an example, the movie Chicken Run was listed in the previous entry as clay animation when no clay or Plasticine was used at all.
(N.B., I’ve been a designer of children’s television for more than ten years; for the past few years using stop motion animation. – D. Mark Laing)
and slutty≠→. Shouldn't an article about Claymation be strictly about the work of Vinton, and the rest removed to a separate article about clay animation? It shouldn't matter how often the term is used to describe clay animation, regrettably or otherwise, and admitting that it's now a genericized trademark doesn't excuse the fact that it's incorrect usage in the senses of both nomenclature and law. The producers of Styrofoam have sued rivals for calling their products "styrofoam". If Warner Bros. began producing movies using Ray Harryhausen's clay animation technique and marketed them as Claymation, they would get sued. Canonblack 20:27, 27 February 2006 (UTC)

i like clay animated movies. they're awesome!! tim burton is a cool clay animator. he is the best! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.207.175.133 ( talk • contribs) 22:57, 19:26, 12 May 2006
Look people, it is really not so hard. Corpse Bride is NOT clay animation. Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit IS clay animation. How difficult is that? If it looks like it's made out of clay or plasticine (in other words, you can mold the whole character, not just the face), call it clay animation. Otherwise, don't. I think that a lot of things in that big long list of "clay animation films/tv series" are not actually clay animation. Esn 07:41, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
The Presentators page lists it as CGI, but it is given as a clay animation example here. Which is it? -- IanOsgood 01:41, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright. If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed, feel free to ask me on my talk page and I'll review it personally. Thanks. --- J.S ( t| c) 14:59, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
Should they be moved to a separate "list of clay animated movies"? That is a common practise to get lists out of an article, but still keep the info. There's no need to have 30 Will Vinton films listed in an article not about that particular studio. I did remove a few redlinks too what looked like non-notable stuff. -- Janke | Talk 07:49, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
Shouldn't the Clay Animator known as Knox be Featured in the examples? Shouldn't he also have his own article,too? I mean, he's very famous and well known throughout Youtube,UgoPlayer, and NewGrounds. He also has his own WebSite, Two DVD's, and millions of fans. So why don't we give him an article? Sorry, just asking. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.202.0.118 ( talk) 23:15, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
The example list had grown uncontrollably. I took a bold step and moved all the examples to a separate article, now linked as the first "see also". Less clutter in the article, which needs some formatting still. -- Janke | Talk 20:42, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
did will vinton invent claymation or was he just a contributor? if he didn't invent it then who did? Madriaga ( talk) 23:52, 19 March 2009 (UTC)
I hope that the new image is more suitable for "Clay animation". So, I hope that other users also will tell what the picture more suitable here, this [1] or that [2]

I offer all to express their views on which of the 2 images better illustrates the article about clay animation. Or maybe to leave the two images.-- Max Sviridov ( talk) 16:41, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
Both pictures seem good - Max has a valid OTRS ticket, and indeed, we ought to thank his company for putting an image in the public domain. Anyone up for approaching Nick Parke to see if Aardman will give us an image? Anyone got a screenshot of Morph from ArtAttack? Any Harryhausen? Clay animation has a lengthy history, and it's all visual, and this article could do with more pictures (if you ask me) Elen of the Roads ( talk) 20:31, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
Seriously, I have already written, and I repeat again. My name is Maxim Sviridov. I never hid from anyone. userneyms I changed because I'm not very experienced user of Wikipedia. nick Plastili_kom or Plastili I use almost all Frum articles and catalogs Internet - this address to my site. Separately, once again want to reiterate that I am not very modest, and suffer from delusions of grandeur. And then what? P.S. Special thanks BelovedFreak for appreciating my work (picture). And yet, I'm very - very glad that you are so closely following my work on Wikipedia, I hope you in the future will be here, somewhere next to me. An article about my studio will soon be returned, but until you can take part in the discussion on the talk page, the user Gnangarra -- Max Sviridov ( talk) 12:13, 16 April 2010 (UTC)
It says that Gumbasia was the first stop motion clay animation movie, but this one seems to be older: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlXafKjDYxY — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.193.150.162 ( talk) 15:39, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
It is quite unnecessary in the English Wikipedia! Otherwise, all other articles would also have Russian (and other language) versions of their name in the article... I have reverted once more and taken it to the talk page. If consensus can be reached with other editors, the Russian name can be re-inserted. -- Janke | Talk 16:04, 5 January 2019 (UTC)
The lead currently says The techniques involved in creating computer-generated imagery are conversely generally removed from a frame-by-frame process.
I'm not sure what this is trying to say. Of course computer generated animation generates a sequence of single frame images, like all other forms of animation. Is this poorly worded or just incorrect?

Clay animation → Claymation – Per WP:COMMONNAME, as shown by Google Ngrams. Wiktionary itself states that it is a generic trademark and Merriam-Webster and Dictionary.com have it as a word. A Google search will show that it is now used to refer to the process itself by numerous websites and has been genericized. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 06:20, 5 July 2023 (UTC)
