Voice Acting Roles[edit]

This may seem like an odd request, but where can I find a list of voice acting roles Mel Brooks did? I already know a few, such as Bigweld from Robots, Wiley the Sheep from Jakers!, and Grandpa Mel from Special Agent Oso, but I want to know his full voice acting discography so 1: I can see if he was in anything else because I think I heard him in other projects but don't know for sure, and 2: so I can include them on this page. If that's not too much to ask. If it is, don't bother. I mean that. Triviatronic9000 (talk) 03:28, 8 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

See the list article Mel Brooks on screen and stage, and note the roles marked as "voice". Dimadick (talk) 11:09, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you kindly, friend. Triviatronic9000 (talk) 21:37, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is No Filmography on this page[edit]

Someone as famous and prolific as Mel Brooks should have a filmography on his Wikipedia page.

I was going to add it myself, but every time I edit/add to a Wikipedia page, it gets undone by admins. Dwilliamsiddall (talk) 17:50, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You will find it on Mel Brooks on screen and stage, which the page links too.CRBoyer 18:19, 6 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just spent several minutes looking for it. The link could be displayed more prominently in the article, rather than buried under "Acting credits and accolades." Given that Mel Brooks is well known as a filmmaker, his filmography is incredibly well hidden. 81.105.46.48 (talk) 19:08, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Did you look under Acting Credits and Accolades?CRBoyer 19:40, 29 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
