I've never thought that Lucy has been portrayed as dimwitted. Certainly not any more than other characters. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2620:0:1000:1102:68F1:1061:AF71:7FF0 ( talk) 21:27, 3 February 2015 (UTC)

I was thinking about completely deleting the relationships section, as it is completely uncited and leaves you with too much intricate detail which casual readers really wouldn't care about, especially if they don't know much about Peanuts. Any objections? ~ Mable ( chat) 08:42, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

In the history section there is this statement in the first paragraph;
"she was the same age as Charlie Brown (the early strips with toddler-age Lucy were not reprinted until after Charles Schulz’s death). Schulz then altered Lucy's eyes to have the same appearance as that of the other characters, except for small extra lines around them which were also sported by her two siblings."
So, the question is, how could Schulz alter Lucy's eyes after he passed away??? Nodekeeper ( talk) 06:08, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
There are a couple of sentences flagged for undue weight.
In the Charlie Brown article, Charlie Brown is clearly defined as an archetype, and even though this article doesn't say as much about Lucy, it's hard not to view Lucy through a comparable lens.
Given that the article has not introduced the idea that Lucy might represent an archetype, it's hard to see why some of these remarks are germane.
On the other hand, a psychiatrist booking off to chew gum ... well, how can you leave that out, if archetype is anywhere to be found in the Peanuts gallery? — MaxEnt 20:39, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
I think it's somewhat well-known that her name is van Pelt, and yet I can't think of any actual instances where this was mentioned in-comic. I'd like to see a statement of when this was first asserted, and perhaps some discussion of how often it was repeated after that. (Cf. Violet Gray, mentioned only once during the lifetime of the strip.) Joule36e5 ( talk) 10:06, 26 November 2018 (UTC)
We need a reliable source regarding the letter case of Van
in Van Pelt. The article title reads lowercase van
, while the rest of the article uses uppercase. Checking for sources is more difficult than it would seem, as official Peanuts websites make no mention of Lucy and Linus' family name, and merch that I could find spell everything in all caps.
I was going to move this article Lucy van Pelt → Lucy Van Pelt for consistency, but without a source to verify which (if either) is correct, I can't proceed. — CJDOS, Sheridan, OR ( talk) 06:00, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
