Note: On hold until Template Required catches up

Reality work Edit

  • Category:Post-Crisis Multiverse Crossover
  • Clean up Category:Realities, it's intersection with Category:Locations and the templates (Template:Reality Category, Reality Template) involved.
    • Make another sweep to make sure all the Existing Reality articles and categories have all the fiddly bits.
      • Cross-connect Original Publisher Characters, Pre-COIE and 52verse.
      • "Based on" in the reality box
      • Edit each of the 52verse character articles done thru Helena Wayne (Earth-2)
        • Add "AlienRace = " to each article
        • "Based on" text in the History section (Earth-2 only)
        • Don't forget to clean up the appearances sub-pages.
    • Finish bringing in the TV and Film Realities, remembering to note whether they are defunct or existing (actually, do we want them in Defunct and Existing, or should those be reserved for comic book realities?) continue in Category:Television Series
    • Sort out the Elseworlds/Hypertime/TV Realities (should they be listed in both, or just left as subcats in Hypertime?) not even started
    • Look at Category:Limited Series, to see if/how they fit into Realities (Justice League: The New Frontier)
    • Finish converting Earth-whatever articles to my Reality Template done up to Earth-51
    • Finish creating the "Earth whatever Characters" categories, using the Template:Reality Characters created by Nathan for the purpose. as needed
    • Edit each of the pre-Crisis character articles
      • Add "AlienRace = " to each article
      • Add Original Publisher, paying special attention to Golden Age characters
    • Likewise for the antimatter character articles, at which point I expect my brain to finally implode

Wikipedia warning Edit

== Copying text from Wikipedia ==

Hi! While it's acceptable to copy text from Wikipedia, since they use a compatible license, it is very important that you acknowledge that fact; not doing so is equivalent to stealing. It's so important, in fact, that there is a special template for that purpose. Simply add something like 

'''{{Wikipedia|Chemical King}}''' 

and it produces {{Wikipedia|Chemical King}}  
It's also possible to include the references, since we have a similar template to their {{tl|comic book reference}}.

Please note that '''only''' sites that use a compatible license can be used in this way. Most websites are protected by copyright laws, and using their work without permission is not only immoral but illegal.

Other notes Edit

  • How does Category:Graphic Novels differ from Category:One Shots?
  • Do we want TV and Film Realities in Defunct and Existing, or should those be reserved for comic book realities?
  • Should Elseworlds/TV Realities be listed separately in Hypertime Realities or just left as subcats?
  • How is {{Cnst}} different from {{CnstNL}}?

Talk pages of deleted articles/images Edit

No parent article Edit


{{MessageBox|This page is currently part of a massive cleanup of the '''''Supergirl/Power Girl/Kara Zor-El/Kara Zor-L''''' articles. There will be lots of incremental changes, the end result of which may not be immediately apparent. Any other edits made during this cleanup may not be preserved.}}
