Ep 9 summary

Needs serious work

New pics and Edits

I'm uploaded some fine pics of the prototype, and made some minor edits... and it may look good on the page, but the edit page is a mess. Somebody, please, fix it! --Hepathos 21:03, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

Caption

In response to ItsWalky on 1/8/07, the problem with the caption is that if you don't know what "Goth Talk" is, then you have to read about it to understand the caption, and that kinda kills any momentum the joke might have going for it. Also the fact that she doesn't really even look goth. Just spikey and purple.

And the problem with the replacement caption is that if you don't know what "Come into my parlor etc" references, then you'd have to read about it to understand the caption! What is the difference? They are both references to things. The previous one was nice enough to provide a link, for those who don't know the reference. I don't see why that should be penalized. --ItsWalky 22:17, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Added her backstory

So, what do you guys think?

I think you probably ruined the episode for a lot of people, since it aired not a few minutes on the east coast before you threw spoilers everywhere. Please use better judgment in the future. --ItsWalky 19:16, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
And the fact that you expect kudos for it is more than a little odd. -- SFH 19:51, 16 February 2008 (UTC)
I think you're a butthole. Is that inappropriate flaming? If so, I redact it, and I think that that kind of behavior might be interpreted as having butthole tendencies. -hx 02:12, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
"I think you're a butthole"...yeah, that's flaming. -- SFH 21:27, 16 February 2008 (EST)

Beast Mode

I'm guessing what's needed is a cleaner shot of Blackarachnia's beast mode, since we don't know what Elita-1's alt mode was...--Apcog 20:54, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah. That's why I put a comma after Elita-1. -- SFH 20:58, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
I get it now, thanks. My at-a-glance parsing needs work.--Apcog 23:05, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Spoilers

I question the use of bold text for "Elita-1" in the summary, considering it is the line immediately after the spoiler tag. The theory behind the tag is that it will catch a person's attention before they begin reading the following text, and that it will thus be processed first so the person can turn away if they do not wish to be spoiled.

But the bold text for that name, I think, has the same attention-capture effect as the spoiler tag. Even though it's only a name, and bolding it might fit with the style guide (hm), I think some discretion might be in order here. --Sntint 04:24, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
