Talk:Key (character)

Untitled
I've added a brief definition of the comic book collecting term "key" since I feel this is what most users would expect when coming to this article (It's what I came expecting to find). This is a common term as demonstrated by my cite to the glossery of the current Overstreet price guide. My change was immediately deleted without explanation. In my opinion the definition of "key" as used in comic collecting is much more important than a detailed description of some character who's appeared 3 times in 80 years.--Socktopi (talk) 08:34, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't mean to diminish this character, however obscure he might be; I think it's great that Wikipedia is able to include information about such a broad spectrum of comic history. I'm just saying that when comic collectors talk about a "Silver Age Key", they are talking about Amazing Fantasy 15 and not this villain and his two appearances since the Kennedy Administration. The article should reflect that. For example Silver_Age_of_comic_books--Socktopi (talk) 08:58, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Despite my request that we discuss this change on the talk page, the same user simply reverted without comment again. Can we get a third opinion?--Socktopi (talk) 20:28, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
 * I'm not a comics guy but I don't really feel like Socktopi's additions are needed, as a key is used commonly outside of comics in the same way your definition is. However, User:Brian Boru is awesome needs to stop reverting without comment. It's not at all helpful and makes progress impossible. --Tombomp (talk) 09:53, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

I think it's eleven senses, not ten. JLA American Dreams Pg 92.
