Wiki tasks thread

Both these ones could use a re-write

• Blizzard
• Blizzard

the former in particularly...misses out almost everything about the character.

The Superman page's story arcs bit is a little dodgy. There's an Elseworlds story in the main section for instance it could also do with a current events section. I don't know enough about Superman and whats happening at the moment to do it properly.

okay, i actually point this out before and someone corrected it (god bless them) but some idiot has come along and re-added everything all over again

Supermen of the Multiverse

some nimrod just keeps adding every analogue of superman to that page regardless of publisher, when the page is clearly based on a team that actually appeared in comics

@RazzaTazz: nope, but it happens with a lot of those types of pages... and the thing is there's at least a dozen guys listedd there who shouldnt be... screw it, i'll do it myself... someone might want to double-check though incase i remove an actual one

@RazzaTazz: OKAY, i fixed it ... mostly just removing characters from other publishers or ones not listed on the actual page. for the record there was 27 characters listed there who had no purpose being listed there.

i think in general, this is a common problem with team pages. not to that degree, but people just add "members" who are associated in some way...again i will use the two classic avenegrs examples - x-23 and the boy who cleans the west coast avengers pool not members of the avengers.

@X35: Agreed though a thread for problem pages would be good.

Miles Morales has a massive origin section but only one story arc. It could also do with a current events section.

Character page that should be team page:

Citizen V needs tidying up major. Can't decide which Citizen V it is a page for. I think I already removed all Zemo's appearances from it, but there's probably still some Dallas ones and some Golden Age ones.

OK done

I'll do this now :)

Another character page that should be a team.

Chris Claremont is missing all but 9 of his credits for Uncanny X-Men (out of 179!) on his page due to that glitch with the appearances widget... if someone wants to go through and remove them and then add them again it will fix it to display it correctly.

Here they are: http://www.comicvine.com/chris-claremont/26-40468/the-uncanny-x-men/49-3092/

I am not sure how to make this into a task

@RazzaTazz: Set it as a task on Claremont's page and include that link (note to remove the assosciation and then re-add it for it to fix the glitch)...

i'd say it's pretty bad since his widget says he only is credited with 9 Uncanny X-Men issues and he's like... the MAIN guy.

Maybe it will fix itself with the relaunch? Weirder things have happened.

I'm almost positive fesak is right, the whole site will have to reindex so retroactively the tens of thousands of miscounts on the site should be fixed.

And the new site is still "coming soon"... just like it was when I first got her a year ago... hmm... :p

@X35: it will be released pretty soon, GB launched already earlier in the week.

@X35: Yes it really is coming now

another one

I've been asking for someone to do this for months now.

A while ago we had some idiot come on and absolutely spam the hell out of a bunch of pages adding over 200 fake appearances to several characters and he also rewrote the pages in poorest english possible as well as adding just completely false info.

I'm still stumbling on b.s. appearances on an almost daily rate... and i won't stop complaining until some saint comes along and fixes the hell out of this idiot's handiwork.

• Dino Manelli
• Dum Dum Dugan
• Eric Koenig
• Gabriel Jones
• Happy Sam Sawyer
• Izzy Cohen
• Percy Pinkerton
• Rebel Ralston

@X35: If you'd like, I can clean up the english. I'm afraid I don't know the characters well enough to edit the info/appearances.

@Manbehindthewires: Eh, it's not just the English, a lot of the actually poorly written content just isn't even true. About 80% of the stuff on the first page for example is made up.

@X35: I tried to chase up some of the movie and video-game references, I'm under the impression he's just tied anyone remotely Italian-looking and working for SHIELD to Dino...

@Manbehindthewires: Yeah, sadly, he's not in any of those games... xP (although his non-canon son appears in one game though). Everything on that page referring to games is completely made-up. Other than the fact there is a character called Dino Manelli, almost everything on that page is made-up... what a great user that prick was.

(if you genuiknely want to focus on that specific page, all his few actually appearances are indexed at the bottom of: http://www.marvunapp.com/Appendix3/manellidino.htm . With the exception of trades and reprints, it's pretty easy to see that about 90% of the non-Sgt. Fury appearances are made-up...sadly you won't get much points unless you bug Razz to compensate you with a bounty which she should coz it stops me complaining to her about this stuff)

@RazzaTazz: @The Poet

Question about editing, I have an entire list of things that Iron Man has created: should I include it on the Iron Man page or create an entirely new concept page?

@xxxddd: depends on what we are actully talking about.

I skeptical about putting them on the iron man page even without know what "things" Tony has created you are talking about.

Definitely going to vote against a concept page, but yeah need more infomation about this list you have.

@X35: Submitted a new character profile; very little left of the previous one. Can't seem to work out how to delete false character credits for all those comics he wasn't in...?

@The Poet: These things:

Inventions

Tony Stark's ever-evolving Iron Man armor is just one of his amazing inventions.

S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier

As one of the brilliant minds behind the international peacekeeping force, Tony designed weapons systems and technology for the agency for years, before he changed his company's focus to less lethal innovations. Working with Director Nick Fury, Mr. Fantastic of the Fantastic Four, and X-Men member Forge, Tony created one of the agency's most lauded innovations. With room for up to 1,000 crewmen, and utilizing revolutionary vortex-beam technology, the helicarrier served as the mobile headquarters for S.H.I.E.L.D's operations.

Mandroids

Built by Tony Stark to protect S.H.I.E.L.D. soldiers from superhuman attacks, the armored Mandroids were first employed against the Avengers.

Hawkeye's Arrows

Although most of the Earth's Mightiest Marksman's trick arrows are designed by the archer himself, some of his more technological arrows were devised by Stark.

Captain America's Shield

When the government stripped him of his title, Steve Rogers asked Tony to build him a replacement shield.

The Quinjet

The Quinjet, the Avengers' efficient shuttle, was originally designed by T'Challa, the Black Panther, and has since been redesigned by Tony Stark for use by the New Avengers and the Mighty Avengers. The jet is capable of vertical takeoff and can reach speeds of more than Mach 2.

At least get the casing right, man!

The lady who is the new Captain Universe needs a separate page (since Captain Universe page works like Venom) and so does the new Nightmask.

I am not doing either because I don't want my name anywhere near that trash.
