Hey everyone, I'm actually an admin over at stashmycomics.com (bobthegopher on those forums) and I'm really enjoying the site here. I'm pretty OCD, so I spend my time indexing over there and now I can do it here as well. :)
Anyway, my suggestion: a uniform way of indexing issue titles. On my site, I always make sure it goes "Arc Title, Part #: Issue Title" so that everything is even and neat. Even if in the book it says "Chapter" or whatever, I switch it to "Part" so everything fits and I make sure to always juse the # as a number, rather than spelled out. I suppose that's a judgment call, but it feels better to me. The other stuff should be a no-brainer though. I've seen some done as "Issue Title (Part # of Arc Title)" and other weird variations which definitely annoys the hell out of me.
For instance:
*Warbound, Part 6
[Instead of "Warbound - Part VI"]
*The Rise and Fall of the Shi'Ar Empire, Part 10: In Exile
[Instead of "The Rise and Fall of the Shi'Ar Empire: Chapter Ten: In Exile"]
Anyway, just my little gripe. Since this is such a user-edited site, everything is done differently by from person to person. If we could hash out one way of doing the issue titles, I think the site could be that much cleaner and better.
