Article
[edit]I previously removed a reference to Sterling Holloway (as the voice of the White Rabbit from the 1951 Disney film), because a perusal both of his page in Wikipedia and in IMDB indicate that he was the voice of the Cheshire Cat; neither says anything about him also being the voice of the White Rabbit. Unless this is documented to be correct, I think I should remove it again. --Markjoseph125 18:52, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
Matrix ?
[edit]What's about The Matrix ? "Follow the white rabbit" just in the beginning of the movie. It's known to be a constant parallel to Alice in Wonderland, but maybe it could be added - Chase 84.60.201.51 22:29, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
Good Luck-A co=worker of mine practices the habit of saying 'White Rabbit' to people on the first of every month believeing that if he says it first he will have good luck all month.
Nearly pointless article
[edit]The main content of this article serves as a tip-of-the-hat to things influenced by the White Rabbit; this seems pretty pointless. At the same time it seems rash to delete the entire thing; any suggestions on how to make this a better article? Quaeler (talk) 14:20, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

The result of the proposal was non admin speedy closure, no move. Strong consensus was reached only a month ago - same nominator appears to be bringing up the same issue again. Clear consensus to speedy close. --Errant [tmorton166] (chat!) 18:23, 1 September 2010 (UTC) White Rabbit → White Rabbit (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland) —Relisted. 75.142.152.104 (talk) 15:50, 1 September 2010 (UTC) The article is named incorrectly. The character is called White Rabbit (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland), and it currently features. I propose renaming the article White Rabbit (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland). 75.142.152.104 (talk) 00:06, 26 August 2010 (UTC)
Comment: I have posted a (mild) warning to the proposer. Andrewa (talk) 20:29, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

{{polltop} White Rabbit → White Rabbit (Lewis Carroll) — The "more relevant" article at White Rabbit is White rabbit. "White Rabbit" is an unnecessary modifier for the subject. Moving to White Rabbit (Lewis Carrowl) I think will offer greater immediate clarity as a search term and dab page entry. 75.142.152.104 (talk) 03:03, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

Is incorrect and should be changed. We are supposed to use the best known name used by English speakers. As far as I can tell, outside Wikipedia, NO ONE uses White Rabbit to refer to the character, they all refer to the character as White Rabbit (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland). White Rabbit is only used the disambiguation page. Keeping this page at "White Rabbit" is illogical. 75.142.152.104 (talk) 01:50, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Move? (November 2010)
[edit]- The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the move request was: page moved. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 13:12, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
White Rabbit (Alice's Adventures in Wonderland) → White Rabbit —
- Moved against clear talk page consensus, by a new editor; from the redirects and reverts of the talk pages in his contributions, it looks like the editor has had second thoughts and tried to move the pages manually, without success. Needs an administrator move to get the article back in place properly. McGeddon (talk) 09:34, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- (That was me requesting that an admin undo a unilateral page move, at Wikipedia:Requested moves, rather than an oddly-worded start to a move discussion. Looks like Anthony Appleyard has declined and bumped it back to the talk page.) --McGeddon (talk) 12:09, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oppose. To many people a White Rabbit is a white rabbit is an albino rabbit such as commonly seen in laboratories and as pets, not one particular fictional character. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 11:06, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- Support move back to White Rabbit - Yeh, clear consensus existed against this move. It needs another move request to overturn the current consensus and to be moved back in the interim. As it stands this is the primary topic by quite a clear margin --Errant [tmorton166] (chat!) 11:08, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- I should point out that this should be moved back and the move request re factored to dicuss this move. Otherwise it is a case of forcing the issue ;) --Errant [tmorton166] (chat!) 11:10, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy close - the user who moved this page is almost definitely that oh-so-determined IP who put in all these move requests above. (We could do an SPI to verify.) If we don't speedy close this and move it back, we reward their new level of disruptive behavior. --JaGatalk 12:08, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- Speedy close per JaGa; let's have the discussion first, and then fix all the broken links if we actually need to. I think it's fine to use capitalisation to distinguish White Rabbit from White rabbit, though, per WP:PRECISION, so long as we link them with hatnotes. --McGeddon (talk) 12:17, 9 November 2010 (UTC)
- The above discussion is preserved as an archive of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on this talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

- Are you the same person as 75.142.152.104 (talk · contribs) ? 65.93.12.43 (talk) 05:05, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
Uhhh, no. Macr86 (talk) 02:36, 9 December 2010 (UTC)

Related obsequious move request by Macr86 (early January 2011)
[edit]See User_talk:Anthony_Appleyard#White Rabbit (disambiguation) requested move, where Macr86 (talk · contribs) on January 1st 2011 directly proposed to an administrator to perform the move request refused twice at talk:White Rabbit (disambiguation). 184.144.163.241 (talk) 12:42, 3 January 2011 (UTC)
- The user admits to another of these direct requests to administrators at Talk:White Rabbit (disambiguation) per request User talk:AjaxSmack#White Rabbit (disambiguation) requested move on 4 January 2011. 184.144.163.241 (talk) 04:33, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
- I started a discussion at WP:ANI. --JaGatalk 02:21, 5 January 2011 (UTC)
Macr86 (talk · contribs) just tried to delete White rabbit, which appears to be a campaign to hide a move of the disambiguation page from common review. See http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=White_rabbit&diff=prev&oldid=407562310 -- 65.93.14.196 (talk) 06:54, 15 January 2011 (UTC)
Space
[edit]There is alot of space inbetween Tim Burtons film and the other references. You might want to fix that. Just saying. -James Pandora Adams —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.176.168.148 (talk) 18:46, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

"too"
[edit]the quote of the white rabbit's opening line is wrong at the top of the article ... there is no "too" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.81.197.249 (talk) 17:19, 14 August 2015 (UTC)
Gender
[edit]The article says "Gender: Male", but it's a bit more interesting than that: the pronoun used is sometimes it and sometimes he, and I suspect that there's method in the madness: Lewis Carroll is deliberately or unconsciously applying an animacy hierarchy. Ideally this would be indicated somehow in the article. How does Wikipedia describe the gender of a character that is consistently referred to with it? I can't at the moment think of such a character but there must be one somewhere in English literature that is sufficiently noteworthy to have its own Wikipedia article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lingvano (talk • contribs) 16:57, 10 August 2021 (UTC)
