NeoBatfreak's images

I'm not sure why, but it looks like in the last few days, User:NeoBatfreak has been removing normal comics character images and replacing them with images of the characters on white backgrounds. It looks like there are a lot of these. Any idea if this is OK? 2601:249:8A00:2500:4AF1:7FFF:FEE5:C031 (talk) 05:14, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

WP:CMOS#BOXIMAGE states that ideal pictures of characters include a blank background, so that could be a reason. It's not out of the question. Etzedek24 ^{(I'll talk at ya) (Check my track record)} 05:19, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

"with no background" as stated. Due to I've been finding some new image for updates. As a trained librarian, I believes that things need to be keeping up to date. So do not accusing me for vandalism when I was actually following the rules. I understand that this IP user is new at this and I am willing to let this go.--NeoBatfreak (talk) 06:20, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

TTN constantly merging Atlantis Marvel

I only glanced at the history of Atlantis (Marvel Comics). My question regarding his reverting is did anyone (including myself) violate the three revert rule. Also was the non-admin closure really a keep consensus as claimed? It seemed more on keep. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 13:03, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

Also can these select few warrant notability?:

• Every comment at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Atlantis (Marvel Comics) found merge acceptable or preferable except for one that was an "I like it vote". Argento Surfer (talk) 13:57, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Ok. Dodge the rest of my questions though lol.Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 14:54, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

If no involved party complained about it, and if no third party stepped in to stop it, I wouldn't worry about 3RR. I've always seen that like exceeding the posted speed limit - mostly harmless unless you're caught or cause an accident.

I haven't reviewed the sources, but the url headlines don't inspire confidence. I think you'll need something that compares Marvel's use of Atlantis to traditional depictions. Otherwise, inclusion on the "in comics" list is probably ideal. Argento Surfer (talk) 15:00, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

I should note there is story arc dedicated to it : "Atlantis Attacks" But I will keep trying to dig up info. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 11:55, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Moon Knight rogues gallery

Is the Moon Knight article better off with a huge rogues gallery section as added by User:PopCultureSuperHero here:[1]? Or does the article even need such a section at all, or is it better off with the more concise list that it had yesterday? 73.110.45.100 (talk) 14:04, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

I just thought it could help the writers of the new show. I plan on making articles for everybody...kind of like a "Moon Knight" project. But in reality I just always revert changes done by non-registered accounts. PopCultureSuperHero (talk) 07:55, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Wikipedia doesn't exist to help show writers, and few if any of those villains are notable enough for a standalone article. Any of them who are significant should be mentioned in the biography section, not a bulleted list. Argento Surfer (talk) 14:00, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Agree with Argento Surfer.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 15:57, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Request for help: Gunnerkrigg Court

I did an update of the plot synopsis of Gunnerkrigg Court, which had not been updated for the best part of a decade according to some notes there, but before removing the outdated mark, I'd like to request some help cleaning up the text. Anyone here who follows the comic and can help with this task? Not A Superhero (talk) 03:01, 25 February 2020 (UTC)

Category:X-Men supporting characters

Is there a general consensus on categories such as Category:X-Men supporting characters, created by new user User:7p12e? 2601:249:8A00:2500:F9DF:DD4C:83B5:E6EC (talk) 16:04, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

They're too vaguely defined to be of use. In this case, "Supporting character" is putting Zabu on the same footing as Professor X. Argento Surfer (talk) 16:22, 29 February 2020 (UTC)

Beautie PROD

Just saw that Beautie from Astro City is up for deletion. I honestly don't know whether this subject is worth an article or not, so throwing it out here in case any of you guys know? — Hunter Kahn 15:58, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Not independent of Astro City. I'd merge important info there without contesting the PROD. Argento Surfer (talk) 16:17, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

Proposed merge of Wade Wilson (film character) to Deadpool#Film

Is the Eternal Sprite a supervillain?

This article used the neutral term "character", but User:MacCready is asserting without a source[2] that the character should be considered a supervillain. The character was depicted as an antagonist in the 2006 Neil Gaiman mini-series, but in the preceding 30 years of the character's existence I am not seeing anything that would indicate that "supervillain" is an appropriate term for this character. It is probably better to discuss here than edit-warring, though. 73.110.46.39 (talk) 10:03, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
