About the image[edit]

The image is too dark. Can someone upload a more lighter image of Darna? --Jojit fb 5 July 2005 02:40 (UTC)

This image of darna is of the original works of darna so no offense to ^(the above statement author) it was most probable of being drawn that way!

I'm referring to the very first image posted here (not the current one). I think that the image was changed and it is no longer dark. Please see the date of my comment. Articles in Wikipedia changes rapidly, so my previous comment is already irrelevant. Cheers! :-) --Jojit fb 08:27, 25 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Moved the television infobox[edit]

Hi Imortalheze77, I moved your television infobox to the Darna (2005 TV Series). --Jojit fb 7 July 2005 04:21 (UTC)

Regarding the misconception section[edit]

I returned the information that tells about why Darna is a woman. I based that sentence on this link. If you disagree with it, please indicate here. I think that sentence is important and it has a NPOV. Cheers! --Jojit fb 02:32, 17 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Separate the TV info from the original info![edit]

Like the heading says. 203.131.137.90 09:42, 24 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

(near) Contradiction[edit]

In two places, the Filipine epic bird is mentioned - in one place saying explicitly that it is NOT the source of the name and in another coming close to saying the opposite. It would be clearer if the two references were brough closer together and clarified.

Review[edit]

203.131.145.10 added his own review to the article. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. There is no room for personal point of views in it. Every article should maintain a neutral point of view. Please refrain from adding your own thoughts about the subject to the article.

Notes about certain words?[edit]

It is mentioned in "Early Years" that Darna came from the planet MARTE. I think it should be noted as a bit of trivia that MARTE is also spanish for Mars as in the planet.

Public Domain[edit]

I was wondering, is any part of the Darna or Varga character in the public domain? 125.168.106.159 (talk) 06:46, 4 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding Darna's nemeses[edit]

Should Darna's nemeses have a separate article like how Batman's rogues gallery has a separate one? I feel like I added quite a lot of details on her nemeses in my last edit. I didn't know that the current list would be around 50 or so villains from the previous 19 when I started working on the list; I'm quite surprised. She probably has more villains that we've yet to discover. But I find just listing their names wouldn't really be enough info. The characters' names with descriptions are always better. How about converting the list into a table? Maybe a separate article would be better?--Theobscure (talk) 19:24, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

CCI note + cruft concerns[edit]

This article had massive amounts of copyvio from multiple sources inserted by Theobscure, who has an open CCI. Please do not revert my edits. I absolutely welcome any additions of the removed content in any manner that is not closely paraphrased or directly copied, however.

This article also feels like it's not very neutral and has a lot of cruft, but I would want consensus on if it's okay to wholesale chop some of the content to make it more compliant with content guidelines. Sennecaster (What now?) 22:33, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
