Support: This could easily be a subheading of the overall list of attractions. Further, it could help clean up the main Universal Studios Florida article. Good idea. --McDoobAU93 (talk) 16:24, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Universal announced that Nicktoon Blast will close on April 1, 2011 followed by a complete closure on August 18, 2011. Please do not add the attraction to the list until after the confirmed August 18 closing date. As of now, the attraction is still operating.--Snowman Guy (talk) 01:48, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
This article is nearly entirely made up of original research and is in danger of being deleted unless reliable sources can be located to support the information here. Its surprising that an article that has been labeled "high" importance in it's associated project has received so little attention.--RadioFan (talk) 23:23, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
So, as some of you may already know a mass nomination for deletion has just been closed with the result to merge the articles into this article with referenced reliable sources. This section (and its subsections) has the aim of trying to organise the overall process a bit. The first subsection I've got a list of all of the articles which need to be merged. The second is a section to house proposed structures for this article (its current form will not do when 18 articles are merged) - feel free to add your own proposed structures. The third and final section is for any discussion or comments about what is being done etc. Kind Regards Themeparkgc Talk 23:12, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
This is the list of all of the articles that need to be merged. Please tag each with either ((Doing)) or ((Done)) followed by your signature (~~~~).
User:Themeparkgc's proposed structure

1. Production Central
2. New York
3. San Francisco
4. Amity
5. World Expo
6. Woody Woodpecker's Kidzone
7. Hollywood
8. Lagoon

Structure:
I believe that the current "History" section of the article should be kept, although it needs to be referenced. Followed by that, I believe that the current "List of former attractions" section should be replaced with Themeparkgc's proposed re-structuring.--Snowman Guy (talk) 23:31, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
The Wild Wild Wild West Stunt Show:
How are we going to merge The Wild Wild Wild West Stunt Show? Since it is a former attraction of three Universal parks, should it be a three way merge with this article, List of former Universal Studios Hollywood attractions and Universal Studios Japan?
Merging complete:
Well it is finally done. All 17 articles have been merged and referenced. I'm sure there is more material that could be sourced and included, however, going from 2 to 59 sources is definitely a huge improvement for the article (see diff or old revision). I'd like to express my thanks to User:Whpq for assisting with 3 of those articles as I probably wouldn't have got around to it for another few weeks. Now, I guess it's just a process of integrating these sources into the history section of the article and effectually resolve the maintenance tags on the page. Themeparkgc Talk 02:12, 30 July 2011 (UTC)
I'm thinking that the current "Opening year" and "Closing year" parameters in the tables shold be expanded to include the full opening and closng dates for each former attraction due to the recent merging of a majority of the articles. I understand that the tables will eventually be replaced with sections for each attraction, so this edit may only be temporary, however, I still believe it should be done. Thoughts?--Snowman Guy (talk) 03:46, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
Similar to the issue with "Jimmy Neutron's Nicktoon Blast", please do not add the Jaws ride and the Amity area to the list of former attractions until after the January 2, 2012 confirmed closure. The attraction will still be open until then.--Snowman Guy (talk) 02:13, 3 December 2011 (UTC)
Also on the subject of "Jaws", how are we going to describe the Amity area in the article after it has been closed on January 2nd? Should a mention of the former Amity area be included in the "History" section? Should the "San Francisco/Amity" section of the article be re-named "San Francisco" with a mention of the previous Amity area in the section? I also believe that the previous shops and restaurants in Amity could easily be added to the "History" section in the paragraph of former dining establishments as well as the "Former services" section.--72.91.148.114 (talk) 02:07, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
I think this article should merge with the "List of Universal Studios Orlando attractions" article. 24.180.56.157 (talk) 17:51, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
