thread_title:   Comic vs cartoon

message: "The concept was apparently borne from a comical drawing sketched out by Kevin Eastman during a casual evening of brainstorming with his friend Peter Laird in 1983."
I'm not sure 1983 is correct.  Is there a source for that date?  See my comment in Talk:Teenage_Mutant_Ninja_Turtles#Origin_of_the_Name.  --Jczorkmid 13:55, 26 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Creation Date? 

message: It states in this article that Volume 4 (the most recent of the comics) went on an 8 month hiatus while Peter Laird supervised the new cgi film. However it has now been 12 months since the last of the Volume 4 comics was released. But what has really come to my attention is that on the official Mirage TMNT website (ninjaturtles.com) under the comics section it gives Volume 4 the dates 2001-2006, instead of 2001-Present, and says "On indefinite hiatus" beneath that. There is no further details on exactly why Laird has not published issue 29 of the series but it sounds like Volume 4's future is now in serious doubt. I think the end of the article should be edited to mention this(as well as on the main Turtles page's Mirage section which has the same info and where I left this same discussion). What does anyone else think? Have you heard further news on Volume 4's present state? Danleary25 04:52, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mirage Vol. 4 Canceled/Indefinite Hiatus? 

message: Is there one of these only, two different series and one with no article, two things being confused here, or what? --HanzoHattori 06:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hm, this is kinda confusing. When the Image series started, it was considered a continuation of Mirage's Volume 2, only with a different publisher and a new creative team. When Mirage started publishing TMNT again, the Image series was dropped from its canon but was still considered to be Volume 3. Hence, the most recent TMNT comics published by Mirage are Volume 4. So depending on your point of view, the Image series could be considered an entirely different entity deserving its own article. As the article stands right now, the Image series is considered a minor deviation within the broader scope of the Mirage series, and its information is included within this context. -- Wild Goose 14:31, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

text: Yes, the Image comics are in the Mirage comics article. Because the series was published by two separate companies, there is a valid argument for creating two separate articles for Mirage and Image.  The reason this has not been done yet is because 1) The Image series only lasted 23 issues, and an article about TMNT Image comics would not likely grow to more than a stub of an article. 2) It's easier (and convenient) to include all pertinent information about Volumes 1-4 in one article, rather than having readers navigate away from the page and back again in order to get the whole story. 3) There used to be a TMNT (comics) article that included Mirage and Image, but also Archie, Dreamwave, and everything else, and it got to be too unruly. In my opinion, the Mirage comics article is concise and readable and should remain as it is. But if you (or someone else) would like to take the time to separate the articles and provide links between them and such, I wouldn't revert your edits. Cool? -- Wild Goose 17:39, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Mirage vs Image series 

message: :Image:TMNTV3No10.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 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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:TMNTV3No10.jpg

message: In truth, these sections shouldn't really exist, and what little is of use should be merged into the Publication history portions, as per WP:PLOT. Either way, they have been frequently vandalized to the point where they are almost useless. ("grow sponges"? Seriously?) And there's been no addition of Vol 4 at all. I think I might as well just get rid of them. Indeed, I shall. oknazevad (talk) 01:34, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  X-Men 

message: I know that this is mainly highlighted for need of copyediting and proofreading, but from the last paragraph in the first section after the intro down, there is not a single source cited anywhere. The last source cited is the third and final reference in the article. impinball (talk) 16:53, 4 June 2013 (UTC)
