fcfc== List dispute ==

This list is not exactly accurate. Universal Press Syndicate syndicates for print. GoComics is the division of UPS's parent company (Andrews McMeel Universal) that handles Web and mobile syndication, and many of their comics come from sources other than UPS. This list was obviously taken from the GoComics site without regard to the fact that other companies syndicate many of these strips for print -- companies other than Universal.

If you want to include this list in its entirety, it should be attributed to GoComics, with a note that we are talking about Web and mobile distribution only.

If you want to have a list of comics syndicated by Universal (i.e., for print), it will be necessary to remove a large number of the entries. Krychek 20:17, 10 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What about Brenda Starr?

I keep trying to add "Brenda Starr, Reporter" but it wouldn't take! Could someone PLEASE add it? Elwin Blaine Coldiron 02:34, 25 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The template

Does the template really have to be in italic? If no-one has any objections I will change it to normal text. --Spiby (talk) 15:43, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
