[edit] "John-Boy" or "John Boy"?

Both versions of the name currently appear in the article. Does anybody know which is correct? Maybe there's no way to know without seeing an actual script from the series. Failing that, we should make a decision one way or the other and be consistent. Rocinante9 16:37, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Good question; I do believe that name is spelled without the hyphen, as Mary Ellen and Jim Bob don't have hyphens either.209.226.132.117 20:36, 2 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup

I think this article ought to be cleaned up and additional info should be included. This article is fairly short compared to some on other TV series. --Maxl 21:40, 15 Apr 2005 (UTC)

I agree with you; as I wrote in the discussion page below, this article seems more like it was written like a personal fan website rather than an Encyclopedia page. And, it couold use a good dose of expansion.Ohyeh 14:14, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Curt

Technically, Curt isn't killed at Pearl Harbor, he just has amnesia, but, seeing that, as I recall, he only comes back for one episode (or, rather, Mary Ellen tracks him down), probably not worth getting bogged down in it. --Mxg75 06:12, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Boatright College

I have made several corrections in the Trivia section about the similarities between the fictional Boatwright College and the University of Richmond. There never was a real "Boatright College", as was incorrectly stated. Vaoverland 10:24, 11 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Added a Mention of Curt's Amnesia

I put in a little mention about Curt's amnesia. I don't think it will bog the page down, seeing as how I didn't go very deep into the situation and just skimmed it. I hope no one minds that I added that. :-) -WikiFiend90 13:45, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Major Cleanup Needed

In my opinion, this article needs attention and cleanup real bad. Its style and content makes it seem more like something you'd find on a personal fan website about the Waltons, rather than an encyclopedia page. I propose that this article be flagged for cleanup and wikification. Ohyeh 18:48, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

I have done a major cleanup of this article. It may need some additional work, but look and see what you think. I have eliminated a lot of the superfluous material and tried to make the article much more concise. Dbart 21:29, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Waltons entry seems fine

Why are you so bent on having it deleted? Sounds like you have motives beyond just improving the entry. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.71.216.11 (talk) 05:41, 1 January 2007 (UTC).
