Talk:Cable (character)

message: I came here looking for information on the character's background, such as what future he's from and how he came to be infected with a techno-organic virus. Is anyone actually working on writing this, or is someone heavy-handedly editing it out? 74.174.59.10 (talk) 22:21, 25 June 2013 (UTC)

thread_title: Power and Abilities

message: If you really want to have a FCB section for this article, then you need to go back and take a look at this old version where we actually had one and pull some stuff out of there, not this weird, lopsided thing we have now.24.148.0.83 (talk) 23:41, 3 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Why was that eliminated?  Did some people who don't read comics or know anything about them just decide to eliminate valid content, simply because they don't like long articles?  That's usually what happens.  I motion we restore it.  Opinions?  Dream Focus 03:14, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

text: Consensus is formed by what the majority of people want.  And primary sources are fine for the information presented for a fictional article.  What is important is that it has a complete list of information, showing how his powers were gained and lost over time, and notable events in his history(such as how he was created and first sent to the future, something which someone has removed since last time I visited this article).  Consensus and common sense says this is important, even if you can't find a source to tell you that.  You have to actually think for yourself sometimes.  Dream Focus 11:03, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

text: How can you write about a character and not mention their origin? That is ridiculous!  We need more feedback on this please.  Dream Focus 11:40, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fictional character biography 

message: This article gives Cable's name as "Nathan". Is Nathan short for Nathaniel? I just assumed Cable's full name was Nathaniel because Nate Grey's full name is Nathaniel. (Cable and Nate Grey are supposed to be alt-universe versions of each other.) But I don't have a cite. 24.114.228.117 (talk) 11:57, 18 September 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Cable is Nathan Christopher Summers. X-Man is Nathaniel Grey. They're equivalents and are analogous, though have different enough origins to give them different names Sketchee (talk) 07:54, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
