Disam[edit]

There needs to be a dissabmiguation page to differentiate between the Pixie who is a mutant and the Pixie who is an Eternal (there was also a Morlock affiliated mutant called Pixie who appeared in Ghost Rider).--65.113.254.204 20:12, 21 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't say disambig, just split into three sections to discuss the three different Pixies, or simply keep with discussing Pixie the Paragon, and briefly mention the rest. --JB Adder | Talk 23:47, 4 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Pixieart.jpg[edit]

Image:Pixieart.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 08:56, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

New Information[edit]

In the recent arc Pixie was assigned a mentor and more information about her was revealed, is it okay to add this so soon or too early? Drroett 14:26, 7 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Recent rvt[edit]

I reverted a recent edit that originally removed Mike Carey's statements of Pixie's role on the adult Uncanny X-Men team. I feel that removing a third party source is probably not a good thing and that the information is up to wiki standards, providing information on how the character fits in a fictional narrative (i.e. younger foil). In that way, it makes the article more than just a fan update page. Feel free to talk it out here.Luminum (talk) 15:03, 11 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agree. I went into the history and readded this again. Secondary sources for minor comic book characters are hard enough to find as it is, we should certainly not be deleting those we have.Yob Mod 14:45, 2 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures[edit]

I think the top-level picture should be replaced by the 'pixie dust' picture. It is much better, in showing more of what Pixie can do and it just looks better art-wise. Lots42 (talk) 19:13, 12 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Recent Changes[edit]

I've done a series of changes on this page. I've reduced miscellaneous/unnecessary information (ex. panel-by-panel) and summarized the events into larger paragraphs. I've added sources for the page and added a better image for the character box (the image should be a full-body image, 3/4 angle, with a clean background). The current image is as best as I could find of the character as she is most recognized in full body and 3/4's. The previous image is a straight-on angle that doesn't show the character in entirety for identification. I've also added an image of the Souldagger. I fixed the tense of the article to present tense and added to the lead as directed by Wikipedia:Lead section.Luminum (talk) 22:55, 28 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
