[edit] Tagged as unreferenced

FYI, the article appears to be currently completely unreferenced. Not only are there no references indicating where her various fictional biographical information is from (eg episode name/date or published material about the cartoon), but there are also no references indicating any real world context or analysis for the character. As per WP:NOT#IINFO and WP:FICT, "articles on works of fiction should contain real-world context and sourced analysis, offering detail on a work's achievements, impact or historical significance, not solely a summary of that work's plot."

So it would be helpful if the article's references were updated, and also included some published references outside of Spongebob episodes that refer to Mrs. Puff in some meaningful way. Dugwiki 22:25, 8 February 2007 (UTC)
