Class?

This seems a little bit more start-class than stub. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Baitt (talk • contribs) 06:31, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Now that it has sections and an infobox I've removed the stub template. --Karen | Talk | contribs 02:57, 1 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article has been expanded four-fold since last assessed in 2008 and is now reasonably well-sourced with MoS-compliant citations, so I've updated to C-Class. JGHowes ^talk 00:09, 19 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Filming locations

Filming locations were referenced in a now-dead link at http://cinchset.com. The Google' cache of the site is sketchy and incomplete, and so is that of the Internet Archive. Google's last partial grab occurred on January 7, 2013, just eleven days ago. While the site disappearance is still fresh in Google's January 7, 2013 cached copy, here's a list of links from the home page site map, naming some of the locations for the fictitious Triple-R Ranch:

Golden Oak Ranch (primary shooting; ranch buildings and fixtures)
The Walker Ranch
The Iverson Movie Ranch
The Sunshine Rancho
The Fifth Ranch

The last in the list may not be a proper name of a place, just a reference to an unknown or unnamed shooting location. The author of the site also mentions "Placerita Canyon", north of Los Angeles, as the location of some of the shooting, on a horse breeding ranch run by one Andy Jauregui on property leased from Standard Oil Company. All locations were presumably in southern California, not too far from Disney's studios. It's mentioned in the archives that the Golden Oak ranch was a working ranch when the series began, but Walt Disney Company purchased the property in 1959, whereupon ranching activities ceased and it became strictly a movie set.

Since chinchset.com was obviously a private hobby site, there's no way of telling what happened to it and if or when it might come back. — Quicksilver^{T @} 23:40, 18 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have just added archive links to one external link on Spin and Marty. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it.

Deletion of Spin and Marty comic book cover

I disagree with deletion of the non-free comic book cover File:Spin and Marty comic.jpg from the section in this article discussing the comic book series. It has a proper Fair Use rationale and conforms with Wikipedia's policies and practices pertaining to Fair Use of a single cover in articles (or sections of articles) about a comic book series. Only a single cover is used and it's directly referenced in the text body, which discusses its significance as an example of the comic book series' longevity, surviving the TV show. Accordingly, I've included it again. JGHowes ^talk 03:44, 19 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
