@guttridgeb: done, if you are in the mood some of those pages you listed need to have their Current Events section moved above the Origin section

@foxxfireart: done, I moved Straw Hat Crew to an alias just in case

Stuff - remove the alias Victor Leong, add Jimmy Leong

Stuff (Victor Leong) alias - add Stuff, The Chinatown Kid

also, rename the Victor Leong page if it needs to be. I've been thinking about separating out a few other pages that have multiple mantle characters but I don't know what the naming conventions are, I've seen it done different ways.

@guttridgeb: done. while I love that version of Romeo + Juliet I'm pretty sure it should be deleted. For the Ghost of Frankenstein go ahead and move that movie poster out of the description and add it as the default image, can't believe that user point whored like that.

@xanni15: nope just got missed cause we posted at the same time, when I open a thread I jump to the bottom and then scroll up to where I last posted since I always complete up until that point and start from there but you were missed, done now.

Madelyne Pryor aliases (they're all straight from the "alias" section of her Handbook profiles before someone takes issue with some kinda redundant ones)

The site redesign cut off the last bunch, the "M" is the beginning of the first one here

  • Marvel Woman
  • Miss Sinister
  • Mistress
  • Phoenix
  • Red Queen
  • Resurrected Queen of Briton
  • Sacred Mistress of the Order of the Black Knights
  • Skipper

Was trying out the "add new item" feature when editing a characters in an issue, and apparently it doesn't like hyphens, so Wolf needs to be "Wolf-Spider"

It needs to be split. There's been four Asteroid Ms. The first one is now Utopia, and appeared in X-Treme X-Men 7.1 dated February 2013. The three later versions have all been destroyed, most latterly in 2004's New X-Men 150.

I don't know about any of that but surely the X-Treme X-Men appearance wasn't canon.

@x35: no clue, I'm like four year behind on reading now so I don't know what's been happening with stuff, for now just let me know what it was last called and I'll rename it to that and add the other as an alias.

Just Bob. Unfortunately it's how people address him throughout the series. Thanks.

@pikahyper: I Three things I was thinking of, with the ability to add volume aliases could we instead of breaking them apart due to a name change use this. Now if they have an actual Volume number change I would see the reason to create a new one.

Second I have a question, for example a lot of the Transformers volumes don't have the word "The" yet the title of the book usually shows it, and is more commonly know as "The Transformers", it may be time consuming but do you think we should add that as an alias?

Finally can you add the Aliases to The Transformers from Marvel UK - The Transformers and Action Force, The Transformers and Visionaries, The Transformers and Action Force, The Transformers and G.I. Joe

@wmwadeii: volume should probably still be split cause of name changes since we still follow the indicia. Again for "The" we go by the indicia so its only included if it is in the indicia and not all of them use it. And done.

@emh_bruce: done, two of those had already been added from before.

Name Changes:

  • Kinemon needs to be changed to "Kin'emon" from the official translation.
  • Yuko Sagiri needs to be changed to "Yuuko Sagiri". The official Yen Press publication uses Yuuko.

@apatheticavenger: all those aliases were already there pre-relaunch and I just added Prelate Summers, alt characters are not allowed so their aliases should be added.

@apatheticavenger: I've never heard that one, doesn't seem practical really since we don't allow alt pages to be created, if a user was searching for the alt version and does not find it they will just create the page but if they find it as an alias they will add the correct page.

aliases now display in the order they were added, I've made a request for this to be changed.

that is still how it works so I've added his real name as an alias, don't go wild with the aliases though as the field has a text limit on it, I've also requested for this to be changed but until it does try to stick to only the most necessary of aliases.

also i'm of the mindset alphabetized aliases are the way to go. preferential treatment is completely excluded from that system and it just adds a legitimate sense of order as opposed to just random names in random order.
