[edit] Brendan McCarthy Photo

Hi Emperor

Thanks for the offer of help. Brendan McCarthy sent me a photo of himself to put up on his page, unfortunately everytime I try to add the picture it’s deleted. Any chance you could put it up for me, you can find the photo here:

[edit] CSI franchise

I have created the page CSI franchise, a page you said ud help contribute too once created. Do u still want to help?

[edit] Illusive arts and Dorothy Notability

I see that you have tagged them. What would need to be done to make them more notable? I've added more information with citations for where the information came from, generally interviews or reviews of their work. They are a small independent publisher, so they won't appear in things like reference USA, although they might be in Lexis-Nexis. I'm currently doing some research to make sure the entry in Lexis refers to the correct company.

Sorry, what point did he make that I missed?

On the :EL page it specifically says:

What should be linked

4. Sites with other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article, such as reviews and interviews.

So why is linking to the review http://www.comicnerd.com site bad?

Thanks

I’m not sure of the exact date, I think it’s around 20 years old. I’ll have to ask him next time I see him. Just so you know, I have permission to upload it.

[edit] COI tag removal

Hoping you're well. You might be busy elsewhere and I only wanted you to know about the recent edits on my page which hopefully address all the issues cited previously, and can facilitate the removal of the COI tag. I've also made a first pass at NPOV cleaning up Clifford Meth, though I was not the one to remove the tag again. Looking forward to moving on. MichaelNetzer (talk) 06:51, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the note. Please feel comfortable and not rushed, I can imagine what you're going through. I've BTW noticed someone unregistered has removed the tags and reverted my NPOV edits on the Clifford Meth page. I'm also a little pre-occupied with something else right now but let me know if I can be of any help. MichaelNetzer (talk) 14:02, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Request

Could you move No Such Thing (John Mayer song) to No Such Thing (song)? I was unable to do so since I lack sysop powers. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 07:13, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

Making "No Such Thing (song)" target a disambiguation page seems like the best solution. Would you like to do the honours? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 19:03, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Actually, that works too. Now the dab No Such Thing should be the page title for No Such Thing (film). Agreed? Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 19:24, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Ok, go for it ;) Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 20:32, 2 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Phil Gascoine

Thanks, Emperor, for your help on this image - I couldn't quite see what I'd got wrong with the link but I think I've hopefully got it now. Thanks also for weighing in on the speedy deletion. Jenniscott (talk) 13:18, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Albion and CBC

Hi someone mentioned that Albion (from Excalibur) was in one of the Handbook's and added a references to Albion (Marvel Comics)... i have since transfered the ref to Captain Britain Corps because people believed it to be right. But now im not so sure i have been trying to find the right handbook but none i have found have his entry... in fact the only place that mentions his name is Marvel Universe Marvel.com's wiki... which isnt exactly reliable. Just wondered if you have heard of it anywhere.

Also on the subject of the Corps... most of its current members are either dead or have no officiation with the corps (like Ultimate and Zombie Brian Braddock.. neither were stated as being in the corps at any point).. i think we may need to have a true look at its membership. --- Paulley (talk) 19:49, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Well i asked the person who first added the handbook ref, so hopefully they will get back to me. As for the corps yea we have to change something, i think if we state that the unconfirmed member list are members of the corps that have yet be considered current or former, while maybe a forth list of related but of unknown membership like Ultimate CB.... or we could simply remove them completely. --- Paulley (talk) 20:27, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Nope i have issue one and two and that's the Knights of Pendragon Albion in one. --- Paulley (talk) 20:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
Hmm yes not up on my back issues but i thing we are gonna have to really go through the former and unconfirmed list to check if they were actually shown as corps members. --- Paulley (talk) 06:47, 6 June 2008 (UTC)
Yea i think i have got the main of it sorted. I do think if we can get hold of specific sources for the Earths and hope that Marvel releases more information on, or issues featuring, the corps in the future we can really get it looking good. However, as a base to work from i think it turned out rather well.... and i finished it in time for CB & MI:13 #2 this week :p -- Paulley (talk) 20:33, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Just finished reading the second issue... raises more questions than answers and it seems they are gonna have a letters page.. maybe we should consider writing something and maybe answering a few questions we might have. --- Paulley (talk) 22:09, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
You know whats really bad is that i saw your name on there the other day and i took me ages to twig that it was you. --- Paulley (talk) 23:07, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
lol, very true. Still no Captain Midlands... or even Captain Britain this issue.. im pretty sure Cornell said he wasnt about to embark on a 6 year stint on CB&MI13 without CB so hopefully he finds his way back to the land of the living soon. --- Paulley (talk) 23:07, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Looking good so far, maybe you can ask him about which readers has he targeted in regards to UK and USA with America's being a large percentage of his sales, how hard is it to keep the book American friendly but still hit home with UK residents. On that note, you could ask him about how he intends to use the UK version of the registration act compared to the way in which it has been used within US comics. Also is there anything in articles that we need answering or more information on, on a more fanboyic note id like to know what happened the Wisdom mini and now for Tink, having seemingly moved on from MI-13 and Pete. I will wonder round some articles and see if i think he can help us with anything --- Paulley (talk) 09:00, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
Well if you looking to hit the recent political climate you could also ask him if he is going to have a story where documents concerning all the information on UK registered heroes is gonna be accidentally left on a train by an intelligence officer [1]. :-p --- Paulley (talk) 14:04, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
And you have been replied... he skipped over the missing documents bit, i think that's cus its gonna happen in a later issue lol. Anyway we have at least got 12 issues to enjoy. --- Paulley (talk) 07:14, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Enigmatic

Good catch on Enigma, thanks. And all your other recent clarifications and help. :o) ntnon (talk) 02:37, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

I'm glad you like it! I did think that it might be a little overboard, as it kept expanding - almost exponentially - as I was writing it (which therfore took quite considerably longer than I'd thought), but I tried(!) to keep the information as minimalistic as possible while still including everything that seemed like it might possibly be of worthwhile interest... Hopefully that's what it wound up as..! ;o)
(Incidentally, in you estimable opinion, would it be a conflict of interest/"in bad form" for me to Undo the semi-recent radical deletions Bill Schanes as I suggested and you supported..? I don't want to be thought to be acting out of line in such cases, but really didn't understand the logic behind the radical removals... Any and all advice, etc., etc.) ntnon (talk) 09:53, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Trinity comic.

Thanks for the clean-up and the the support. I hope you can keep an eye on the articles, because as I say, I want to avoid spoilers... Duggy 1138 (talk) 21:15, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

The thing getting out of hand was my worry, too. I was worried about spoilers on a personal level (I want to read the thing in TPBs) so don't want to monitor the page. I'm fine with there being spoilers on the page, I just don't want to read them. Duggy 1138 (talk) 21:35, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sentry

I'm currently engaged in a discussion with another editor on the Sentry's discussion page concerning the removal of a statement. It's basically about the point about hyperbole I brought up on the project's discussion page and I'm just curious to have the thoughts and insight from someone else on the subject. ThanksOdin's Beard (talk) 13:34, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] SIA

If you are still interested in set indices, there is an update available. Your comments are very welcome.—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); 13:54, 10 June 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Templates

I was wondering how much you knew about templates, and if you'd be willing to help me with a problem I'm having. I recently installed the same software that Wikipedia uses (MediaWiki), and I don't understand how to get the common templates like {{reflist}} etc to work. Could you point me in the right direction? Please answer here on your talk page, as my ip address may change, best regards.

[edit] Comic-Strip mining

Good catch on the Moore interview, I hadn't noticed that yet, and it was indeed interesting. I tried to pick out some salient points - semi-sarcastic reasoning for Lost Girls not having had them pilloried; Century's tentative release date, and then put this together, since it wasn't up yet. :o) ntnon (talk) 18:29, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

I worried - briefly - about that, but fortuitously it's a) Not a comic and b) Very explicitly described by both Top Shelf and Moore. So it's not crystal-balling in the sense of, say, speculation about the already-imminent return of Batman prior to his perpetually rumoured removal..! ntnon (talk) 19:03, 13 June 2008 (UTC)
