Comic book characters

I removed this text — '''Roy Harper''' is also the civilian identity of the comic book superhero known as [[Speedy (comics)|Speedy or Arsenal]]. — because it has absolutely nothing to do with the Roy Harper of this page. If there is a need for a disambiguation page, make one, but don't put content that refers to unrelated entities at the bottom of an another page. 24.12.132.100 16:34, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Busker Reference

Removed busker category as the link directs to a page of people who "practice busking or street performance". That's not quite applicable here. Stephenjh 01:41, 26 May 2006 (UTC)

Sections / Content Layout

Separated sections to include "The Nineties" and "Recent Work", I think that over those 16 years there's more than enough information to be added in these sections...in good time! Stephenjh 21:52, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

Come Out Fighting Genghis Smith Cover Art

I have removed the text claiming that Harpers second albums artwork was controversial, as the artwork referred to was in fact not the original artwork but the artwork on the re-issued CD. (Whether this was the originally intended atwork I do not know.) Stephenjh

Help needed

{{helpme}} Can an editor help explain why some text in the sub-section The Harvest Years (1970-1980) is in dashed line boxes? It may be something to do with the cquote codes used but I can't see anything incorrect... or is this something to do with IE "compatability view" again? Any help appreciated.

As you may or may not know, any new line beginning with a space produces the dotted box. The cquote template causes the text after its end to act like it's on a new line and so you can fix this effect by simply removing the space at the end of its use. For example {{cquote|at end of this use just remove the space}}more text with no space You could also place a hrad return on the text to place it on a new line. However, what you should also know is that all this use of the {{cquote}} template should be changed. It is for pull quotes, not blockquotes. There have been many discussions about these and the result is that the manual of style goes out of its way to specifically mention at MOS:QUOTE not to use these types of templates and formatting for blockquotes. This is also mentioned in cquote's documentation. --Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 11:23, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
