Affair[edit]
It is well known that Dr. Seuss cheated on his first wife while she was dying of cancer with their family friend and his later wife. Her suicide can likely be attributed to this affair. This should not be omitted from his page. Talk Aug 29, 2021
And? -Stiabhna (talk) 20:46, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
Yes it should be omitted, unless you can cite a reliable source (WP:RS). Wikipedia doesn’t go by what is “well known” or “likely”, but by what can be documented in a reliable source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.255.97.2 (talk) 01:47, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
I've added it back it. Looks like it was mistakenly deleted in this edit. Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/)[ᴛ] 09:48, 23 December 2022 (UTC)
It well known and documented. Their are numerous articles he admitted it publicly. This article is extremely bias.
- Biased. Even if it were true and well documented, this is not (or only sometimes) the National Enquirer or whatever. Seuss miss-pronounced (?): just heard on a podcast, his mom thought of Zeus.--Ralfdetlef (talk) 14:06, 14 October 2023 (UTC)
First Cartoon in Judge[edit]
The article currently states "[his] first cartoon for Judge appeared on October 22, 1927 ..." I believe it was actually October 29. The archive.org scan of the Oct/29 issue is mislabeled as being Oct/22, as can be seen in the date shown on page 1 at archive.org/details/sim_judge_1927-10-22_93/page/1/mode/1up . A Seuss drawing appears at the bottom of page 3: archive.org/details/sim_judge_1927-10-22_93/page/3/mode/1up .
The Oct/22 issue is in the archive.org scan for Oct/15 -- this scan has both Oct/15 and Oct/22. I see no Seuss drawings there.
I appear to be unable to edit the main article, thus am unable to correct it. 2601:98A:4100:36A0:FD0A:497D:F8A4:5BD9 (talk) 14:15, 14 September 2023 (UTC)
Television series[edit]
In the List of screen adaptations section, Television series part Gerald McBoing-Boing (TV series) is missing. Aminabzz (talk) 10:25, 22 October 2023 (UTC)

- Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. RudolfRed (talk) 22:00, 19 November 2023 (UTC)
