[edit] "Marvel Comics" vs. "Marvel Comics universe"

One of the two terms above is used in most entries for Marvel Comics characters, which generally say either "so-and-so is a fictional Marvel Comics superhero" or "so-and-so is a fictional superhero in the Marvel Comics universe."

The two terms each go to separate Wikipedia entries. They mean different things -- one entry is about a comic-book company, the other about an internally consistent fictional setting, ala Tolkein's Middle-earth -- yet they are used interchangeably.

For consistency and clarity, it might be good to establish some sort of standard language for these Marvel Comics entries. I will post this comment as well in the Marvel Comics and Marvel Universe entries. --Tenebrae Sept. 6, 2005, 8:27PM ET

For the record, this has since been resolved by the creation of the Template:Marvel_Universe, which splits the difference.

[edit] Incorrect comparison

"He is about the size of a small moon (4165 miles in diameter)."

Small moon? No known moon is that big (with Ganymede being the biggest); the closest match in the Solar System is the planet Mars. --Anshelm '77 02:59, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Thor-161.jpg

Nuvola apps important.svg

Image:Thor-161.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Adding to Alternet Verisons

It isn't metioned that in Wha...Huh? # 1, that in a alternet reality Galactus ate him and got food poisoning? -Golem866 (talk) 19:48, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

I don't think the humour series Marvel does (there have been many) are relevant enough. Lots42 (talk) 18:35, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
