Disambiguation link notification for January 4
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of Marvel Comics characters: A, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Wakanda (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Suggestion for the comics character list header infobox
Hey, I was just wondering if you thought it was reasonable to add a field for the Marvel Universe Appendix site, like the Template:Marvunapp, to the infobox we use for the minor characters on the comics list? It seems to have a reasonable amount of well sourced info on some of those minor characters, and would probably be pretty useful to readers. Cheers. -Fandraltastic (talk) 16:28, 5 January 2013 (UTC)

Apology
I just wanna say I'm sorry because I am arrogant, foolish, and cocky. I figured you might be feeling sorry too. From now on, I'll provide reasons why I chose to edit the articles. Just a reminder that I meant no wrong but just made couple of mistakes. If you want to give me some advice, that will be nice. I very much appreciate it.

Sincerely,

"pngs are generally used to avoide jpg artifacts, not preserve them"

I removed the artifacts where I could (like in the logo, please take a look), and left the rest of it because the colours were modeled, and couldn't be reduced that way without damaging the picture. I also reduced the number of colours indexed. Do you any issue with the job I actually did? The filesize reduction was quite significant. Curly Turkey (gobble) 02:59, 17 January 2013 (UTC)


 * To be honest, if you've got the trade and a scanner, scan the cover and upload the 1st generation .png instead of trying to "fix" a degraded image. But even then WP:IUP specifies "Photos and scanned images should be in JPEG format." - J Greb (talk) 03:21, 17 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Okay, sorry, I was asked to convert an colour .jpg to a .png to save on filesize before by someone who seemed to know a lot about images, so I assumed it was the way to go. Curly Turkey (gobble) 03:54, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

 * IP address user 142.55.218.104 keeps vandalizing the Punisher's page. He/she gives no reson and no reliable sources to prove he or she's point since the page very well describes who and what the character is. Also, I believe that IP address user 142.55.218.104 is a what they call here on wiki, a Sockpuppet since the numbers are almot the same as the last

How about that Lar Gand guy?
It's too funny to be sad. Where we ever like that when we were, I'm guessing, 12? :-)  Anyway, a good excuse to come say hi and hope all is well. --Tenebrae (talk) 00:13, 25 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Yup... and I just asked for someone who knows how to range block 'em... - J Greb (talk) 00:06, 26 January 2013 (UTC)

Connor Hawke Article Picture
So that BRD article says that I should go to your talk page and talk to you. I am, as you may have guessed, pretty new to editing Wikipedia, and all of these "how-to articles" are pretty dense, so I'm just going to be straight with you- I'm a long-time Connor Hawke fan, and the predominance of whitewashed images of him bothers me. I'd really like to get a profile picture that reflects the dark skin he had for the entirety of his solo Green Arrow run as well as several later adaptation and his well-established ethnic background. Can we come to some type of agreement here? By everything I can tell, the image I have uploaded from the cover of Green Arrow Volume 2 #163 meets all of the criteria for comic book characters' pictures, but I have plenty of others I'm willing to put forth if need be.
