Vandalism

This page seems to be subject to a lot of vandalism. (This is the most recent example.) The vandalism is coming from mostly IPs, so does anyone else think this article should be semi-protected? ^Tezkag₇₂ 04:36, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He-Man and Prince Adam should have one article (Merger Proposal)

The following discussion is archived. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

Per the consensus below, the merge has been completed Hiding T 13:21, 7 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

They are the same person but they are two separate characters with different abilities and different personalities (although this is intentionally faked). Adam views He-Man as separate from himself, as he always hopes to be able to prove himself without the assistance of He-Man. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.147.59.147 (talk) 21:02, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's like saying Batman and Bruce Wayne are the two different people because the Bruce Wayne acts differently in public to when he is in costume. It's still the same person or better example would be Captain Marvel and Billy Baston Dwanyewest (talk) 14:00, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He-Man and Prince Adam should be covered in one article, the same goes for She-Ra and her alter ego, Princess Adora.24.190.34.219 (talk) 22:13, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I agree He-Man and Prince Adam are the same character they are not two separate characters?

Dwanyewest (talk) 11:31, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge - A single character with two persona that's all. There doesn't appear to be any evidence that each individual personality is so notable in its own right that it requires a separate article. This goes for both He-Man/Prince Adam and She-Ra/Princess Adora. BIGNOLE (Contact me) 03:39, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge there is no need for separate articles. Ditto the She-ra/Princess Adora situation. (Emperor (talk) 12:04, 22 September 2009 (UTC))[reply]

merge makes sense, as the way the characters were utilized in any medium was never exclusive or distinct from their alter-egos. There also is a lack of commentary thematic or otherwise regarding these alter-egoes. I'd support such a merge. -Sharp962 (talk) 20:12, 22 September 2009 (UTC).[reply]

Merge. I see nothing in the Prince Adam article which merits the split. Also, by convention, most characters with dual lives or dual personalities only have a single article on Wikipedia. --GentlemanGhost (talk) 14:10, 24 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The above discussion is preserved as an archive. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

Early Mattel Origin

Why has the earlier origin in the Mattel mini-comics been deleted? It makes this article's reference to He-Man's origin being "revised" by Filmation awkward at best as this is the only origin presented on the page and there is nothing cited earlier that it could be revised from. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.98.157.232 (talk) 18:33, 13 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Musclor

Should it not be added somewhere that He-Man is known as Musclor in France and other French speaking countries? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.193.42.92 (talk) 16:31, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Eternia - He-Man cross reference date mismatch?

It seems in the article Eternia (which also happens to be He-man's home planet) that they written "36th episode of 1980" But He-man episodes in anime where not created until 1983.

Could it be that the creators of He-Man have adopted an existing planet (named Eternia) from another cartoon/comic book?

Or is there a date mismatch in this (if Eternia was created (and invented) within the He-man episodes)?

Or a third possibility could be that 3 years before He-man ever got published, the creators invented this planet only later to use it in He-Man episodes?

The '1980' date does bring to question the correctness when crosslinking it to He-man episodes.
