Your Hulk edits[edit]

Thanks so much for adding all that you did! Lots of great stuff on the cultural impact section, though I would like to return it to 'In Popular Culture', because I think the section title gets stigmatized by all the bad article uses, and would like to show how it should be done. That said, I also edited for active voice and took out some redundancies and one peacock-y setnece, but I really wanted to thank you for the massive contribution to the article. Please hit the talk page to see what else we're working on the get the Hulk back to GA and on to FA. ThuranX (talk) 15:21, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

You can't use 'too active' a voice, but the extreme passive is a drag to read, so a lot of editors clean up a lot of the stuff like 'Bob was shown to say upon publication in the magazine x..." into 'In the May 200X 'magazine x', Bob said...'. It's no less NPOV, and reads clearer. ThuranX (talk) 02:14, 28 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
