"Dawnstar" revisions

You made a well-turned set of updates on the Dawnstar article, which to me fully warranted removing those two flag-tags. I was not at all sure about how this should be done, but you hit on all the essentials.

I did add more references, and moved the one you added to a footnote. I also made some stylistic changes. I hope to independently reference, and restore, one item you removed — protestations by Shikari's creators, Abnett and Lanning, about how she was not meant in any way to be a return of Dawnstar. - Greybird (talk) 04:09, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Sounds good to me! --Xero (talk) 10:32, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

...for polishing the plot section over at G.I. Joe: Resolute. I tried to scribble down the major events in passing so as to get something up, but managed to miss a lot of the details (like character names) owing to my tiredness at the time. I was hoping that if I added the general information someone would come along and fine tune it, and I am grateful for that. TomStar81 (Talk) 07:14, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

No problem man you had already done all the heavy lifting. You should build more you're good at it. --Xero (talk) 22:37, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

Lyssa Drak

Um... why did you change the part about her homeworld? I wrote it that way because DC has made conflicting statements about which planet is her home.--Marhawkman (talk) 18:45, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

It's all info from the issues of Green Lantern. I don't have the issue numbers handy, but it's come up several times, and 2 different numbers have been given.--Marhawkman (talk) 01:33, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

As I wrote on your talk page, if you have the relevant information then cite it in detail on the Lyssa Drak page. --Xero (talk) 12:28, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Handy? No. Like I said above, I don't have the issue numbers with me. That's really the only cites that'd be useful.--Marhawkman (talk) 18:04, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Maybe you should have thought of that before making a confrontational post on my talk page, and wasting my time? --Xero (talk) 02:29, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

Confrontational? I'm just trying to help. One of the sources I used was one of the issues comprising the Sinestro corps war story. which one? I don't remember. The other was the databook that had small bios of the various Corps members.--Marhawkman (talk) 21:21, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Verifiable Resource

An index written by who? What were his resources? How much information was completely made up? I can publish indexes on html web pages too, that doesn't necessarily make the information valuable or reliable.

A verifiable resource would be an actual comic book, a published piece of literature or web content approved by DC Comics, or an interview with one of the creators/writers/artists behind the comic.

What makes the pistols similar to green lantern power rings? Do they allow the user to fly, create constructs, etc? Are they powered by willpower or another emotion?

Also, it's still written in an in-universe style. What issues were they featured in? -Hooliganb (talk) 16:30, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Hooliganb you are behaving in an extremely aggressive manner, and exerting a possessive attitude in regards to the Green Lantern related pages you've been editing. You might want to consider taking a wikibreak in order to recharge your batteries. When and if you decide to behave in a reasonable, and non-possessive manner I will do my best to help you, but until then I will be ignoring you. --Xero (talk) 22:44, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I wasn't asking for your help, I was trying to explain what was going on with the Power rings article. If my behavior has been misconstrued as possessive, then I apologize. That wasn't my intention at all, and perhaps I will be cooling off the articles I've been editing. If I came off as aggressive, I'm sorry for that also but it was done specifically in response to:

15:20, 30 July 2009 Xero (talk | contribs) (41,664 bytes) (Manhunter pistols: which is why it's mentioned in the wikipedia article on the....Manhunters, weird huh?) (undo)

Retaliation doesn't make it excusable and doesn't make it justified. However, it also doesn't make bullets in Powers and abilities a standard, or "indexes" a Verifiable Resource. I didn't delete those things because I wanted to keep you from editing, I deleted them because I didn't think they belonged. I'm genuinely sorry, though, if I offended you by doing that or came across as though I felt I "owned" those articles. Once again, I'm also sorry for any offense I caused by posting on your talk page, I was just trying to clarify why I deleted the section in the first place. It's, of course, your prerogative to ignore me but I'm hoping this response was able to come across as more reasonable. -Hooliganb (talk) 01:06, 31 July 2009 (UTC)

Firestorm

Most common names doesen't apply to alias? MWhat about "Barry" Allen, "Hal" Jordan, "Johnny" Storm, "Ben" Grimm... Man, I really think you're a little confused. Cheers —Lesfer ^(t/c/@) 01:17, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Unique circumstances? Who is saying that? You? So, this is opinion, right? Now regarding my edits... what's the problem about being sporadic? I don't get your point. And I won't even comment on this 3RR block, three years ago because it was based on a mistake commited by a incompetent administrator. I'm sorry I can't return the favor and try to point all your mistakes over here, Basique, as you had your logs erased, right? ;) But that's not really important. Well, after mentioning "sporadic edits" and "3RR blocks" I'm glad you want to discuss the issue on a civil basis, how nice of you. But until we have reached a consensus, we keep the original edits, ok? You don't change and then propose a discussion, that's not how it works. Cheers —Lesfer ^(t/c/@) 20:16, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Hahaha! Nice try, bro! 2007?? Wow! That's a loooong time to keep personal grudges. It was a nice try, even though DC Database is not Wiki. My time of animosities over ever are way behind, Basi-Buddy-boy. I suggest you do the same, man. This is bad for your soul. Try to be friendly! It's not hard, c'mon! I wish you only the best, kisses and cheers —Lesfer ^(t/c/@) 21:12, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

But I know you as Basique, man, what can I do? Please, don't get pissed at me about it. Just like I'm Lesfer, has always been and will always be. I'm sorry. And I'm really not worried about being judged by you, my man. I'm really really cool with it. Believe me. If fact I think you should expose all these things on the Firestorm talk page. I think it would make you feel comfortable and nice about the discussion. I give you my blessing, really. I don't wanna fight and I won't. I wish after the case is closed you could put all your grudges behind and we could be nice friends because in spite of all your bitterness mood, I'm positive you are a good person. You're simply misguided. I wish you only the best —Lesfer ^(t/c/@) 21:47, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Liseuse

Hi Xero, I noticed your 'keep' !vote on the article I nominated for deletion. I have some concerns with your argument and I have explained my thoughts at the AfD. Jujutacular^talk_contribs 17:47, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Re Impulse (DC Comics)

Maybe it would have been better for you just to be bold without asking for input on the Bart Allen talk page.

As it stands the set index is mostly useless since the LSH character was only shown under the alias in a handful of flashback panels and Wally's daughter in 2 panels.

As I said when you proposed the SI - that does not justify it. Worse, there is very, very little for 2 of the sections:

Kent Shakespeare

The character was revealed to have used the codename in a flashback sequence in Legion of Super-Heroes vol. 4 #53.

And

Iris West

In The Flash: Rebirth the character envisions a variation of Bart's original costume when Wally creates uniforms for the gathered speedsters and dubs herself "Impulse".

Is about it for those sections. Shakespeare's main story arcs don't belong and neither does Iris' arcs prior to Rebirth.

I agree, thanks I'll update them both. --Xero (talk) 20:35, 24 November 2009 (UTC)
