Article Poorly Written...[edit]

I'm being bold and cleaning it up, okay? Any help would be appreciated. Abby724 19:44, 4 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've made further grammatical changes to the plot section, but left the {copyedit} tag in place --Arondella 18:19, 31 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of "needs infobox" tag[edit]

This article has had its infobox tag removed by a cleanup using AWB. Any concerns please leave me a message at my talk page. RWardy 17:51, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Genre[edit]

We've got a source for the film's genre: the AFI Catalog of Feature Films calls labels it as "children's works", under the subgenre of "animation". The Wikipedia article lists this as "animated children's film". Does anyone have a source for other genres? There's an IP editor who is rather insistent that it is a "fantasy adventure film" (diff).

Allmovie lists its primary genre as "Children's/Family" and places it in the "animated" category. It lists some sub-genres too, but on the basis of what Allmovie have down and what the AFI says I think "animated children's film" is the way to go.

That also seems like the least interpretive structure. It is definitively an animated film, it is definitively aimed at children. Whether or not it is a "fantasy" or "adventure" film is interpretive. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 05:15, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I support "animated children's film" as well since a quick search engine test supports "animated" and "children's" (or "family"). While "fantasy" did not appear as often, "adventure" did pop up, but I think one could easily mention the "adventure" aspect later in the lead section of the family having an adventure in Africa. I don't see results tying the title with the adventure genre anyway; there is probably a live-action bias in using that genre. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 17:39, 25 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
