Talk:Phineas Flynn

Careful confusing episode summaries with character history
While what is here right now works well, we need to be careful we're not just duplicating the whole "P/F" portion of each episode in Phineas's article. It could very easily expand into a huge article if we have a summary of each episode. We don't have to have everything Phineas has ever done on his page, just what relates to who he is as a character.

Rollercoaster was an important episode establishing who he was, so it makes sense there's a lot of information from that episode. Going forward, I think we need to try another approach for subsequent episodes. Maybe provide the reasoning why he came up with his nearly impossible plan and the beginnings of it, then link to the main episode article? There's bound to be some overlap, but this way readers of this article won't feel like they're reading an entire series synopsis.

Also, I'd like to start trying to cite references in articles. I think we should use the Memory Alpha approach. They have what they call inline citations. Check out Dr. Doofenshmirtz and see how the episode links are after a paragraph. I think that's the style we should use here. —Topher 19:20, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

The Agency
Phineas is an agent in The Agency? I thought they only liked having animals as agents? felinoel ~ (Talk) 07:53, 25 August 2008 (UTC)


 * In "Ready for the Bettys," Phineas and Ferb accidentally find Perry's hideout and go on a mission. I'm not sure that really qualifies him for the agents category. I put Monogram in the Agents category, but I'm still undecided on Carl. My thought is yes, he should go in agents because he works for the Agency. Phineas and Ferb, I don't think they qualify. —Topher 08:05, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well I don't see Monogram and Carl as agents either, employees of The Agency maybe, but not agents felinoel ~ (Talk) 08:18, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Since Phineas was once doing agent work in "Ready for the Bettys", he could still be considered an agent, but formerly and only for a short time, like Norm was. That's why I put there. --SuperFlash101 20:18, 3 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Ok, now that there is the category of The Agency and Agents are a subcategory of the category of The Agency, why not instead put him in the The Agency category? Since he was only involved with them briefly... felinoel ~ (Talk) 01:28, 12 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Humans are animals. But they did hire Norm at one point, so I don't see why not.
 * Phineas and Ferb were only there for a short time, and they pretty much didn't do anything to stop Doofenshmirtz. I wouldn't qualify them as agent really. --PerryPlatypusAgent 18:38, 2 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Humans are NOT animals. It's just something that's made up.Travisplatypus 18:52, October 22, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes they are, idiot!

New Image


Maybe we should have a new image for Phineas. I mean, that's just promotional image for him. I mean, I love this one, but it's just a suggestion. This one may work. --SuperFlash101 18:21, 25 October 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree, the picture we use now doesn't fit in, its a small part of a promoposter...-Audun 18:25, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

Cool, then should we make an announcement for people to vote or something? --SuperFlash101 01:33, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Seriously, should we put this on people's talk pages and ask them to decide? Because here's another suggestion. --SuperFlash101 15:14, 26 October 2008 (UTC)


 * Agreed that we should use a screencap rather than a promo pic. I don't really like the first one, but either of the other two are ok. Don't forget that if you really can't choose, you can use more than one image in the infobox. Also, even though this is a high profile article, you should feel free to be bold and make the changes you feel are appropriate. There doesn't need to be a consensus on this. That said, it would be nice if we could find/screencap a full-body image of Phineas without a Disney Channel logo in the corner, seeing how this is a high profile article. —Topher 02:44, 27 October 2008 (UTC)

Well, thanks. But, the 2nd image does show his whole body and doesn't have a Disney Logo on it. --SuperFlash10101:25, 28 October 2008 (UTC) Oh, Toph, which one should be on top:2 or 3? I can't decide. Please respond quickly. --SuperFlash101 01:40, 28 October 2008 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed you are using my image for the park version of Phineas which is fine... but is it possible to add a credit and link to our site www.charactercentral.net ? Thank you Jon.fiedler 20:09, May 13, 2011 (UTC)

I like Michael.F's picture the best. P.S., what do you think of changing Isabella's image? she kinda looks creepy in that photo. I was thinking we could give her an image that makes her look...cuter? From the Big P&F Fan, Wikidude1234 17:53, October 11, 2011 (UTC)

Phineas's family life
I'm sorry, but this paragraph is half condescending and basically very uninformed:


 * "His whole life, Phineas was raised in what is called a "blended family", but being since he lived like this his whole life, it felt more as a normal, average, American family. Phineas and his sibling are such sometimes confused by their mother as being their stepfather's birth children, such as being told they have his imagination. ("It's About Time!")"

I believe that this needs to be rewritten to not sound like it was written in the 1950's when divorce, especially on television, wasn't "normal". As unfortunate as it is, it is not uncommon in America for families like this to exist. Also, I believe that Linda isn't "confused" about the Phineas and Candace's father, but are instead making a nature vs. nurture argument. Linda is saying that because Lawrence raised the children, he has had such an influence on them that they have taken on his characteristics, including his imagination. I know it's not the same, but my grandfather, not related to me by blood, was a great influence on my sense of humor and and many other parts of me that people always say I remind them of him. My mother and grandmother insists that I got his genes through some sort of mitosis. Phineas's situation is fairly similar, and a father-figure would have a bigger influence than a grandfather figure.

I propose the following rewrite:
 * "Phineas was raised in what is known as a blended family which has become fairly common in America. Since Lawrence has had such a profound influence on him, despite not being genetically related to him, Phineas see him as his father, not step-father. Lawrence's influence on the children is so great that even Linda acknowledges that they have his imagination. ("It's About Time!")"

--Topher 06:37, 7 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Actually, though, Dan Povenmire said on a YouTube talk page that Lawrence and Linda met in the 90s, when Phineas was only a wee baby. That's why I worded the part that way. Though, I do see what you mean about the ...Phineas and his sibling are such sometimes confused by their mother as being their stepfather's birth children, such as being told they have his imagination, part. --SuperFlash101 19:47, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

What about:
 * "Like so many other children in America, Phineas was raised by his mother and stepfather Lawrence alongside his sister Candace and stepbrother Ferb. Since Lawrence has had such a profound influence on him, despite not being genetically related to him, Phineas calls him "dad." In fact, his influence on the children is so great that even Linda acknowledges that his imagination has rubbed off on them. ("It's About Time!")"

I am interested in seeing this talk page on YouTube. If you can post a link here, that would be great. Perhaps it's time to send another batch of questions to Dan Povenmire. --Topher 05:16, 8 November 2008 (UTC)


 * Here's the link: . (Scroll near the middle of the page until you see the user name "Dantible".) Also, I like the paragraph you just suggested, though I think we should word it somewhere that, (After the "Phineas calls him 'dad'" part)
 * "This is no surprise being the fact that Phineas spent his whole life knowing him as such."
 * I have also agree to send Mr. Povenmire a new message. A few questions I've found we need answering are "What's the real name of "Toy Factory/Comet Observatory/Mini Golf", and the whole "Flynn-last name thing" on Talk:Clyde Flynn. --SuperFlash101 15:01, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

Speculation in the "Relationship with Isabella" section
The most recent edit by an anonymous user added the following: "If Isabella is still in Phineas's life during teenage years, there is a chance that he might return her feelings." I can't say that this is out of bounds, but it's definitely speculation that isn't supported as of yet by what is seen in the episodes. -- (RRabbit42)


 * Removing speculation for discussion elsewhere. -- RRabbit42 17:58, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Or they still friends or maybe she still in Ferb's life. At Quantum Boogaloo, when Candace implies to Isabella that she may instead end up marrying Ferb, Ferb responds by giving a winking look in her direction, implying that he may have some affection for her. But Phineas never seem to have affection for her.

Near death experience?
Can we really consider the event in "Traffic Cam Caper" Phineas' 1st near-death experience? The water was calm and as shown in "Voyage to the Bottom of Buford" that he knows how to swim. I wanted to know what others think about this.—Ardi 08:48, 13 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Personally I think if someone dropped about 20 feet from a bridge into the water it would hurt alot. Phineas would've been very hurt if he just slapped the water like that, even if he could swim. But it is a possibility that you can consider that as not a near death experience. -Phineasf92 09:07, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

The distance between the bridge and the water was high although he wouldn't have fell 20 feet but near that number. What do other people think?—Ardi 09:22, 13 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Candace "saved him" as he said in the episode. Therefore it was an obvious near-death experience. He almost died, it's just how they say. — Excelsior,   The Flash  - ( Talk to me, talk to me, talk to me bay-bay! ) 15:29, 13 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Okay, I guess that ends this discussion.—Ardi 23:59, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

He has another near death experience in "One Good Scare Outta Do It" when he fell out of the haunted house.


 * Already noted, please read the section.  The Flash  {talk} 16:03, 8 June 2009 (UTC)

 * "Phineas and Ferb Get Busted". That's part of a dream sequence, so we don't know if it's accurate or just part of Perry's unconscious mind. — RRabbit42 04:24, 14 June 2009 (UTC)

Birth canon?
I watched Phineas and Ferb get Busted and the whole show turned out to be Perry's dream, Right? So are you sure the birth is true when it was just a dream? Phin68  talk to Phin68  00:25, 11 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Actually, the Episode was a dream sequence, as far as we're concerned, all the other episodes are happening in the PaF universe. Also, I don't understand your last question—Ardi~(Talk)~( Correspondence ) 02:59, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
 * You don't? Phin68  talk to Phin68  01:42, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I think Candace reflecting on her brothers coming to the house can be reflected as canon, despite it being a dream. But aside from Candace being big enough to hold Phineas, and that Phineas could walk when Ferb moved in, there's very little TO get from the whole thing.--Rognik 04:14, October 27, 2009 (UTC)
 * There is no real problem if you think about it, Phineas was at least a toddler when they got Perry(as shown in Oh, There You Are, Perry perhaps Perry was around when Phineas was born, thus when Lawrence and Ferb moved in as wellBobtherandomguy 18:59, December 10, 2009 (UTC)
 * No, No I don't. But I am guessing you're asking if we are sure the birth of Phineas shown in the episode is true.—Ardi~(Talk)~( Correspondence ) 02:59, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * That's exactly what I meant. Phin68  talk to Phin68  00:23, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Any thoughts? Phin68  talk to Phin68  01:54, 15 July 2009 (UTC)


 * When did they say their birth? Anyway, I just watched Phineas and ferb's Quantum Boogaloo on youtube and according to the dialog in the later part of the episode, Phineas and Ferb are 30 years old in the episode's future, which is 20 years from the present. Therefore, wouldn't that confirm them as being 10 years old? "Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today." - Phineas Flynn 03:56, September 20, 2009 (UTC)

It's confirmed: Phineas and Ferb are 10 years old at the time "Rollercoaster" occurs. Linda of the future says "My Phineas and Ferb are 30 years old now" and that occurs 20 years after the last trip that Phineas and the rest take near the middle of the episode (which happens during the events of "Rollercoaster").

Dan had said that Phineas was "less than 15", so I don't know if they realize that he and Swampy locked the boys into a specific age now, or they decided it was time to give them a specific age. — RRabbit42 17:27, October 4, 2009 (UTC)


 * Well, either way, the dialog said it, but the thing is, they could avoid that by saying that they may have had their birthday between two episodes after Rollercoaster, but that would still put them at 10 or 11. "Ferb, I know what we're gonna do today." - Phineas Flynn 23:49, October 4, 2009 (UTC)


 * Most birthdates in the 1990's would make Phineas's or Ferb's ages greater than 15. So, perhaps the line:
 * Born: Most likely 1990's
 * ...ought to be retired? It's difficult to reconcile with "Age: less than 15," and impossible to reconcile with the (fairly-credible) age speculations immediately above.
 * We're unlikely ever to know their precise ages. Neither the show's creators nor Disney want us to know. If perceived as too young, then older kid-viewers might stop watching (fearing the show is "only for little kids,") and vice-versa if they were believed to be older (smaller viewers--less likely to identify with the characters--might regard the show as irrelevant to their concerns). Foreverdrone 08:58, December 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * You know I think Phineas was 10 and turned 11 at his birthday, same with Isabella. This is where I place the rest of the ages, as a guess.
 * Ferb- 10 or 11
 * Baljeet- 10
 * Buford- 12
 * Fireside Girls- 9 through 10
 * Irving- 10
 * Django- 9 or 10 Sensorfire (talk) 16:23, May 7, 2014 (UTC)

Facts Strait

 * Alright, I'm terribly sorry to nit-pick here, but Phineas and Ferb are NOT 10 years old. Dan povernmire stated himself he did not want them stuck down to an age. And alot of people are saying that in 'Quntam Boogalo' that they say they are 30, that is wrong. Linda says 'in thier 30's' not exactly 30. We need to change the ages back to 'less than 15' --Give peace a chance! 04:08, October 27, 2009 (UTC)

SomeoneD: Well, as far as my memory serves, Linda says "30 years old." I'll rewatch it now, but I'm pretty sure their age is defined.

They don't look like they're 10. They're around 30 at Quantum Boogaloo. I belive Phineas is like 11 and Ferb is 12. 187.67.34.127 16:20, July 14, 2010 (UTC)JuLoyola

Sorry, but the fact is Phineas is definitely 10 until his birthday, when he turned 11. I don't think there should be any question about that. Ferb's age is under 15, I'll place it at 10, 11 or even 12. Sensorfire (talk) 16:26, May 7, 2014 (UTC)

Should we add that his birthday is during the summer?
I mean, we know that it's during the summer now because of Phineas' Birthday Clip-O-Rama! So we could put that under Background Information, right? Or are we just gonna wait until after the episode airs to see if we get an exact date? SingingCookie 01:35, March 20, 2011 (UTC)

Phineas Half-Brother to all Step to none?
I don't know if this has already been talked down, or specifically overrulled by the creators, but I think the show leaves room for Phineas to be Ferb and Candace's half-brother. IE: Linda and Lawrence's child, the youngest of the three.

Even the (technically dreamed) flashback of Ferb's arrival only would indicate that Ferb arrived at a post Phineas date. Perhaps he was simply still with his mother before then? Linda and Lawrence were dating in the 80's and even in a mixed family, Candace's natural reference to Lawrence as "Dad" and even his parents as "Grandma and Grandpa" indicates that he was present from a VERY young age.

I'm not saying that that this is the "truth" in anyway indicated within the show, but it seems to me that there is nothing (perhaps deliberately so) to preclude it.

24.1.4.139 19:32, April 27, 2011 (UTC)

Actually, as interesting as that idea is, Phineas can't be the child of Linda and Lawrence. One of the reasons is that Linda and Lawrence weren't dating during the 80s. A lot of people seem to be confused by this but Love Handel was popular sometime during the 90s; Dan Povenmire said so when trying to explain Phineas and Ferb's timeline. (See the fourth footnote on Phineas' page).

Though, I do think you're right about Phineas being around Lawrence from a young age. After all, Dan Povenmire said Linda and Lawrence were dating while Phineas and Ferb were toddlers, so I'm sure that they would have seen a lot of each other, especially since the two ended up getting married.

Cosmetic Change Needs to be Made
I am currently locked from editing this article, so whoever has the ability to edit this article should know that the listing of solos Phineas has in songs has a repeat of "Truck Driving Girl" marked clearly under another Solos (In a Duet) heading. Please attend to the matter as soon as possible please.

Phineas' Age

I think Phineas (and Ferb) are ten. But, in "Lawn Gnome Beach Party of Terror" the surfing judge guy says as Phineas hangs by his teeth, "... he's hangin' thirty-two", which implies that Phineas has all of his teeth including, twelve-year-old molers and wisdom teeth. But, at the ABSOLUTE youngest, that would put him at fourteen. And Candace is fifteen, so... Just goes to show you, a surfer-guru usually doesn't make a good dentist. :) And in the Phineas background info, it says he is seen sitting in the driver's seat, which would mean he has to be twelve or 4' 10. Or, their mom has one of those cars that has the airbag that turns off when there isn't enough weight in the passenger seat. I think Phineas turns eleven on the birthday episode of his, (which I guess is supposed to take place in mid-August, I don't know, that's just how I imagined it...) and Ferb turns eleven at the very end of August, when school starts. So as of right now, Phineas is roughly eleven. Just a thought.

Relationships
Under the 'friends' section of Phineas' relationships, there are brief sentences then a section for Isabella which is blank. Does anyone else think we should change this?Phinabella Rules! 00:37, August 2, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah. What's the point of that even being there if it's blank?  They will  Escape from Phineas Tower. Or not.  19:54, October 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Isabella Garcia-Shapiro and Isabella and Phineas's relationship covers it, but I agree. I have added the relationship to Isabella to his DisneyWiki article. Hi, Phineas.Whatcha doooooooin'? 19:56, October 2, 2011 (UTC)

Phineas' Age
According to Candace's character page, she is about five years older than Phineas. Wouldn't this effectively put him at around the age of 9 or 10? Ferb as well, if memory serves that the two are more or less a few months older/younger than the other.

I think candace is Elder than both Phineas and Ferb.So how can 14 be Candace's age?? In this wiki page I saw age 14 in Candace's page and less han 15 age in both Phineas and Ferb's page! And it made me wondering....It means that phineas and ferb are elder than Candace but how is it possible?? This is so not true.... please make a Edit on their age...Candace Is the eldest one amongst them 3. :)

Candace is 15 not 14, and they never said how much older Candace is them Phineas. JDDJS 15:40, August 23, 2011 (UTC)

112.201.48.234 09:42, September 2, 2011 (UTC)It is said in the boxes of their action figures that both of them are 9-years old??? Im not quite sure.

Check it in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UM6U6KrFyMk&feature=fvsr

I also think that that Ferb is older than Phineas by a month or more but it is clearly known to people that they're both the same age. Lets just say that we dont know for now and lets wait until it is stated(I hope..). So maybe Ferb has also grown a year older before Phineas' birthday. Correct me if Im wrong...


 * Is that K-Zone magazine from the Philippines? 111.68.62.47 09:49, September 2, 2011 (UTC)
 * Message above was from me. Anyways, if the K-Zone you're talking about is from the Philippines then that magazine is not reliable. Phineas is the same age as Ferb. The reason the boys are stepbrothers is because producers wanted them to be the same age, but not twins, and be more than just friends. I don't think the information listed on the toys are reliable since Jakks Pacific made them and it is unknown if the creators had any involvement with the toys.

 * but at least at her teenager years. Lets just say she is around 15-18. sorry for not replying earlier(my message was the second) and just dont believe on that kzone because I lost that magazine along time ago. But I still remember reading that since ferb is a little older than Phineas by a month they are still the same age. please correct any errors...
 * Candace is confirmed to be 15 as of "Candace Loses Her Head". There have been no official sources of Ferb being older than Phineas. Unless it is officialy stated in episodes or by the creators, Ferb and Phineas are the same age. I regularly buy K-Zone here in the Philippines and I can say it is very unreliable.

Image change
Aren't there any other iTunes photos of Phineas? The current image is good since it has no logo, it's of great quality, has a nice background, and it shows Phineas' whole body. The only problem is that he's bored in the image. Phineas is always depicted as happy, optimistic, and active, but the infobox just shows him sitting lazily with his eyes half-open. I think the infobox should have a picture that shows how Phineas is usually like. Michael .F 15:51, October 1, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes, yes there are more appropriate pictures. I've updated it with the one I could immediately think of. —RRabbit42 ( leave a message ) 16:51, October 1, 2011 (UTC)

Origin of name.
There seems to be a bit of confusion (or at least I'm confused) about the origins of Phineas' name. I know most people say his name is derived from Phileas Fogg from '80 days, however I have never heard Dan or Swampy confirm this. I do also know there was a 19th century book titled "Phineas Finn" (*1). This one actually seems more plausible to me, because I know almost everybody knows '80 days, and I know that Dan and Swampy like to give a nod to niches, and this book seems like the esoteric kinda thing they like.

It also seems like the name is quite a bit closer to Phineas'. the first name is identicle, and Flynn and Finn.... well I could stutter and say that!

Let's discuss!

EDIT: Ooooh, I should really have read the last line of this page haha! Oh well, it still makes for a good topic 12.78.88.45 20:32, October 10, 2011 (UTC)fwd0120


 * Good point. Flynn, Fogg, Flynn, Fogg... Wow. I really see where you're going with this.  They will  Escape from Phineas Tower. Or not.  20:38, October 10, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hmmm I'm not great at interpreting stuff on the internet... was that sarcasm? if so, I did not intend for my observation to start any kind of flaming. 12.78.88.45 20:42, October 10, 2011 (UTC)fwd0120

Phineas Flynn's Relationships
I think the Relationships section needs to be expanded. He is the main character, he has multiple relationships with many people. Not only Ferb, Candace, Linda, Lawrence, Perry, Bucky, Friends, Isabella and Heinz, there are many many others. Grandpa"s", Grandma"s", Vanessa, Suzy, Stacy, Jeremy,... a lot of people.

P&F in PPGD?
Phineas, Ferb and Isabella were in a crossover with the PowerPuff Girls and My Life As A Teenage Robot character X-J 9 "Jenny" Wakeman....does anyone have the link for that particular webcomic? I want to double check it and add it to my Teenage Robot Wiki so that way I can link to the pages here. Cartoon Network/Disney/Nicklodeon crossover...that cant be....

Phineas's age
Would Phineas not be 10-11? In the episode where they go into the future, future linda says that her phineas and ferb are 30 and that was twenty years in the future. If the birthday cliporama episode was after that then he would be 11.

I would agree i will edit it and if anyone wants to re-edit it please watch the episodes specified and see if you dont agree Koibeast 20:28, May 4, 2012 (UTC)

Phineas,Ferb and their friends' age
I just got the latest issue of Phineas and Ferb Magazine and it featured a "Casting Call",which showed the characters' age and their personality. Phineas,Ferb and their friends are 9-13 years old as stated by the magazine. Is the information trustworthy?

P.S. I could upload a photo of that page to verify it. Hiya111 23:41, May 27, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, the magazine should definitely be regarded as a trustworthy source. Were the kids generalized as 9-13, or were each of them given specific ages?

Thank you very much for sharing! Alycia 00:07, May 28, 2012 (UTC

They are,like you said,generalised at 9-13 years old. However Perry's age was not mentioned. Baljeet's last name is given as Rai. Hiya111 00:08, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Gotcha. Thank you! Because this is an official and legitimate source, should we be modifying the kids' ages to 9-13 (in lieu of 'less than 15')? Alycia 01:00, May 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * I'd say wait, until we know from the creators. Corn dog, corn dog, yummy yummy yummy! 01:02, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * I've sent Swampy a tweet on Twitter to ask him about this matter. Maybe we have to wait till tomorrow to find out... Hiya111 01:07, May 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * Swampy confirmed the fact! here's the Tweet: https://twitter.com/mmonogram/status/206938678801608705 Hiya111 02:47, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Since Swampy confirmed that the magazine is trustworthy, should: I'd like to know before doing anything. —— Wi Ki <font color="DodgerBlue" size="2px">AN 10:01, May 28, 2012 (UTC\)
 * Baljeet be renamed Baljeet Rai?
 * The ages stated in the magazine be used for everyone except Candace and Doofenshmirtz (who are confirmed in the series to be 15 and 47, respectively)?
 * Perry's age be listed as adult?

The directors say that Phineas and Ferb are of the same age but I always think Phineas should be a little older than Ferb...Yunhai Jiang (talk) 05:44, April 6, 2013 (UTC)

Phineas's height
I wanted to say this in the talk section so everyone can be clear on why I changed Phineas's height information. It says that he is now as tall as Isabella in the background information and, to top it off, Isabella's height is listed as the same as Phineas's on her character box. Why should Phineas's box say anything different? FiresideGirl1 (talk) 00:33, June 27, 2013 (UTC)


 * I can understand why you had to change since I'm the one who personally put that information in the background in the first place. Besides, I really notice it as the shows progresses. Patrickau 26 (talk) 01:13, June 27, 2013 (UTC)

2013 Image change
I have a number of problems with Season 2 smiling.jpg. First, that's not how Phineas usually is. Check any episode and you'll see that Phineas looks too laidback compared to his usual energetic self. Second, his skin tone isn't accurate due to the shade of the tree. Third, current episodes have changed his head shape. A slight art evolution.

These are my candidates: Each image is from Season 4 and, in my opinion, are good enough in terms of image quality since they're 1280x720p each. All of them are better representations of Phineas than the current image. If you have any nominations of your own, feel free to post them below. I really want to change the image right now, but community consensus is important here. — <font color= "#216FBA" size="2px">Wi <font color="#60BFEF" size="2px">Ki <font color="#216FBA" size="2px">AN 16:42, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Phineas' age
Phineas' age might be 13 because it said on (I believe) Disney Wiki that he was officially "less than 15", and on this wiki it said he's either 11 or 12 years old, but a year older after Phineas' Birthday Clip-O-Rama!, which means he may be 13.

Second Infobox Image?
Sometimes on wiki pages, characters who age or undergo change have more than one picture representation of themselves on their infobox. For example, on The Lion King Wiki, there's a picture of Adult Simba and Cub Simba at the top of his infobox, and the two images are switchable. So, I was thinking, when Act Your Age comes out in America, should we put a switchable picture of Teenage/Adult Phineas at the top of his infobox, alongside his normal picture? And, obviously, the same question goes for all the other characters who age, too. Aurablase (talk) 01:27, September 7, 2014 (UTC)

Personally, I believe that it's a good idea. Unknown Person 838 (talk) 01:59, September 7, 2014 (UTC)
