Talk:Cal Durham

Title of article
Is there any special reason why the article is called Cal Durham (comics) instead of Cal Durham? What other Cal Durham would this character be distinguished from? Kaijan 12:15, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * It made more sense to name it cal durham comics because there is a CAL - Durham University, and I felt it made sense to leave that entry open to them. --Basique 15:07, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Durham University already has an entry. The "CAL" in the title you mention is, from the Durham University website:
 * "The CAL Group was formed in 1993 to support the use of IT in teaching and learning. There were regular meetings (see below) and a CAL mailing list. In 2001, the CAL Group became part of the Teaching and Learning Forum."
 * So there's no reason to leave a space open for it. I'm moving the page to Cal Durham. Kaijan 14:01, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
 * No problem with the name move, or your changing the hero box, but leave the categories alone, they are all perfectly valid. --Basique 15:13, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Explain how Cal Durham is either a superhero or an Atlantean? He is neither, as far as I can see. He is a human water-breather from the US. And while he assisted Aquaman once, he has never been a superhero. Am I missing something? Kaijan 05:19, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * The Atlantean category also applies to anyone allied with Atlantis doesn't it? And as for the superhero part DC defined him as a hero when he stopped being a villain. I'll make a concession and remove the atlantean tag, but the hero tags stay. --Basique 11:17, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * If Aquaman is a hero, and Cal Durham is an ally of that hero, then doesn't that make him a hero? It certainly doesn't make him a villain. By every classical definition he's a hero, he even made the hero's choice so i'm curious what exactly did you want him to be defined as? --Basique 11:33, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * It's not a question of being a hero or a villain, since he's neither -- Cal Durham is part of Aquaman's supporting cast. And a very brief part of that cast, since he has made few appearances, none of them within the past 20 years. Still, I won't remove him from that category, since he does fit somewhat, though tenuously. --Kaijan 20:28, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Cool. --Basique 23:29, 12 July 2006 (UTC)
