Keep an eye on the Toy Story Mania page, as it may end up moving to Toy Story Mania!. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by SpikeJones ( talk • contribs) 19:21, 1 February 2007 (UTC).
Given that numerous attractions are 'planned' and rumored, are we only going to commit to those attractions formally announced by the company? Case in point 'Western Expedition' was planned for WDW but never technically buildt. There have also been a plethora of attractions that got killed sometime before being green-lit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.101.129.91 ( talk) 07:36, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
Are we supposed to be adding years to this? I don't like the idea but I'm wondering what others are thinking. Also, can anyone make the Epcot column wider? -- blm07 18:19, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
This will come up eventually, might as well start the discussion now. Should we have each name change under a new entry or put it all under one. Things like Buzz Lightyear will have four entries instead of a crammed one, but that is the only attraction with so many name changes. Currently some things like "Countdown to Extinction" and "Dinosaur" have two entries, with the old name marked as closed. -- blm07 19:25, 2 February 2007 (UTC)
It would make the list easier to use and clearer if it was seperated into at least Current Attractions and Former Attractions. It may be worth discussing how we could format or arrange this to be more useful/useable. Tiggerjay 20:38, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
There are quite a few spelling errors, and there are restaurants, fireworks shows and parades in this list. This is only supposed to list attractions. Also, we should find a way to do edits in mid-list more easily. 70.181.109.146 07:55, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
I feel like the name of this article should be List of Walt Disney World Attractions to be more accurate and formal.-- Mike730 ( talk) 04:18, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
So this is something that I've been thinking about. Why should "pavilion" be capitalized after attraction names? "Pavilion" isn't part of the official name, so why should it be capitalized? -- blm07 02:35, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
Someone suggested that the various park attractions lists should be merged into this list. That is ridiculous. How can you fit all of the information from those lists into this list? -- blm07 であります! 16:54, 21 February 2009 (UTC)
I agree. There is no way that is going to happen. The list is of all parks, so sections for just WDW attractions added in would look weird. Most of the information is already in the chart, But it would be stupid to erase the whole MK, EPCOT, etc.page.-- Mike730 ( talk) 23:12, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
So, this page hasn't been looked at for a cleanup in some time and is missing some of the more recent attractions, as well as some old ones I have information on from a really handy Disney website. Shanghai Disney also was added as a top column without adding the "|" bar breaker to carry the column all the way down making things look a little funky so I'm in the process of fixing that as I add in the omitted attractions.
While I am doing that, I would like to make a suggestion to make this table a little easier to dissect information from at a broad glance. I think perhaps it would be advantageous to break up the listings into the three major categories they come from: Rides and shows, fireworks and parades, and other (restaurants, pavilions, the like). I think a color key would be confusing on top of the one already used for the time element so perhaps a stylized key would work well. Rides and shows in bold, fireworks and parades in italics, and other in underline.
Also, there doesn't seem to be any consistency regarding the attractions that don't have articles created for them yet. Some are dead links and others are not linked at all. Any thoughts on the above items? Pianoman1125 ( talk) 22:57, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
