Why pages for individual dates?
I saw that you are creating links for the publication dates fro individual comics, and was trying to figure out a way that that would be beneficial. I understand in something more general, like Wikipedia, that it might be interesting for something like comparing birthdays of all the people who have an article about them, or what events happened on the same day, but what benefit will it have for Legion Wiki? Mind you, I'm all for collecting data for statistics or overview, but I'm just having difficulty envisioning the usefulness of this. (List of all issues published throught the years on March 3rd?) Sorry if I'm being dense - perhaps you have some plan in mind. Care to enlighten? I will be happy to start adding links to the publication dates I add. --Gopher 17:15, 14 September 2006 (PDT)
- It's nothing to do with actual links, it's something completely different enabled through "linking" the dates :).
- See http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Dynamic dates. - Reboot (SoM) talk page 10:20, 15 September 2006 (PDT)
- Thanks, I'm glad I asked. That would obviously be useful. I'll start "linking" all my dates. --Gopher 13:07, 15 September 2006 (PDT)
Superboy 147 Replica Edition
The title from the indicia is "Superboy #147 May-June 1968 replica edition". --Gopher 05:22, 15 October 2006 (PDT)
- Why link it to Superboy 147 Replica Edition then sans date, as you did? (Plus, as I've said before, I only go to the indicia in the event of a tie-break. The cover logo is the title the buyer sees, ergo, 9+ times out of ten, it's the real title (the exception being Legion of the Damned-style scribbles or characters' heads obscuring the logo slightly).)
- And if it's a straight reprint, I don't see why it doesn't just link straight to Superboy v1 147 - the only practical difference between that and, say, the reprinting of Civil War #1 is that the cover's not different. Sure, hellava timespan, but then Action Comics #775 was reprinted a couple of years down the line and they just noted it as a "second edition" (and yes, the ads were different) - Reboot (SoM) talk page 13:22, 16 October 2006 (PDT)
New Titans Annual 1995
So I was looking up some stuff on the new Sun Girl and went traipsing through some of the Teen Titans history pages. I had totally forgotten about this one. Shortly after Zero Hour, the Time Trapper appeared in the New Titans Annual #11 (1995, the "Year One" issue) where he revealed some time travel/timeline stuff to some of the Titans. Here's the link to the Titans page, and here's the link to the issue on the GCD for the issue credits (now all we have to do is figure out when it was published). -- Omnicom 22:43, 17 October 2006 (PDT)
