(snipping a lot of stuff that's probably not of any further interest. People can get them back out with "history" if they disagree....)


I wonder if, especially for UK comics, we should change the links so that each UK issue links to a separate "issue" page, with the separate stories being linked as they currently are (all current comic pages are organized by story title). Besides the "back-up" features you mention, later UK TF comics often have TWO TF stories running concurrently, and the current system does not account for this well. But I'm not the best person to suggest an alternative. My expertise is in the US comic, which tended to have just one story per issue, and little else. The US comic even tended to break up story arcs into individual titles for each issue more often than not....


Shouldn't we have talked about merging the UK and US comics into one entry before actually doing it?....--G.B. Blackrock 23:35, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

Should we have? It's easily fixed if that's deemed not acceptable. The real big change here was making Generation 1 (comic) be a disambiguation rather than blurb on the Marvel US comic, because that is most certainly not the only Generation 1 comic, and it's probably not even the one that most people would be interested in.
I decided to just fold the content in that article into Marvel UK, because do we really need two seperate pages on the two Marvel comics? If we actually do get enough content to warrant two articles, it's easy enough to split the two. But like I said, the major change her isn't the merge, it's putting a proper disambiguation page at the G1 comic link.
Apologies for the alleged "UK bias" in the little blurb. I've never actually read any significant part of either Marvel comic, and know next to nothing about either, so I can say that definitely was not intended. --Suki Brits 00:24, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
