  • We don't use the "Batman (Bruce Wayne)" and "Catwoman (Selina Kyle)" links in the appearances section, because the categorization still uses "Bruce Wayne (New Earth)" etc. The former are for google optimization. Internally, we use the latter.

  • We don't add textless covers to cover galleries. Those belong on issue pages, and can be used on team and character pages etc, but the cover galleries are strictly for the full retail covers.

    If we're missing covers, the appropriate thing to do is find them, upload them, and add them to the issue page and cover galleries with the proper template, etc.

  • I understand you challenging the site conventions, but having edit wars against admins is not the way to do that. If you want to challenge an admin's ruling, the appropriate way to do that is discussion through a talk page. I wanted to do this politely, but I will simply protect the page if you won't stop changing it.

    Please don't tell me you know more about the storyline pages on our site than I do. I made at least 90% of those pages. I made the Storyline Template. Our policy is that we use the cover for the collected edition if we have it on file, and if we don't then we use the cover to the first issue.

    • Then change all those of which there is a cover for the collected edition.

    • We use the collected edition cover when we have one on file on the site, if someone uploads them. They're the preference, because they're the image that DC has chosen to represent that storyline. They're the preference, but it's acceptable to use a regular cover image if something better isn't immediately available. I'm not going to go around making sure every storyline image is stricly updated based on collected edition covers, but I am going to revert edits that change to a less preferable image when we already have a good one.

    • I would.

  • Why did you erase Jor-El's name from the characters list, given that he appeared in the Richard Donner cut of the movie?

  • Not every two-issue storyline needs a template. Those templates were originally meant to keep track of crossovers.

  • Hey Varese, please either link character appearances in trades like a normal page, Character (Universe), or don't link any characters and add {{Missing Characters}} at the bottom of the page. Linking to just Bruce Wayne or Penguin isn't very helpful because they're empty categories. Thanks.

  • We decided zero and million issues should go in chronological order. We just haven't implemented it yet across the titles.

  • The template should link to the disambigs. Stop changing it without giving a reason.

    • It's the same thing. Both abuse other people. And both, sooner or later, fall...

      • Abuse of power would be if I blocked you over an edit war on a subjective topic. Like, say, the alignment of Robert E. Lee (but let's not go there).
      • This is not a subjective matter. The topic boxes link to disambiguation pages. It is the standard for just about every topic box on this wiki. I can only think of one or two that don't. Your only argument to not follow the standard was "It lists the New Earth presidents". I countered that point by saying several did not appear in New Earth, or in non-canon stories, or not as Presidents. (I gave an example with JQ Adams; I could give more: Eisenhower, Grant, Harding, Harrison, Madison)
      • Contrary to popular belief, a block does not need an explicit warning beforehand.
      • We were having a discussion. In the meantime, I had made several adjustments to cater to points you raised, and moved several pages to different universes. I relinked the template accordingly. I also removed links for presidents that did not appear anywhere in the DC Universe. Without replying, you reverted all of those edits - and thus created a template full of red links. The only reason you gave was "I did explain."
      • Giving an unsatisfactory reason, ignoring discussion, and reverting unrelated edits... those three are enough reason for a block without warning.
      • I blocked you for a week, which is not much. People have been blocked for longer, for less (and not by me). I unblocked you while review was pending. Hatebunny suggested bringing it down to two days, but didn't reblock you. Since a day more has passed, only a day would remain. I won't block you for that day. I'll leave it at that.

  • Don't remove discussions simply because you think they are over.

  • Don't remove covers from cover galleries and issue 5 already has an image. We talked about this the other day. Unless you can specify why you have a "personal" problem with an image or why we should delete/replace it, it needs to stay.
