thread_title: ''The End of MAY!''???

message: I realize that this may be a minor point,but I'd rather Spider-Girl were nicknamed "Spidette" since "Spidey" was her father's nickname. - R.G. 04:17, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: As far as I know, she's never called herself this, or been called this by anyone else, in the comic.  --Galliaz 11:23, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Spider-Girl's nickname

message: Currently her "Notable Powers" entry makes no reference to her webbing. - Joeyconnick 21:14, 2005 May 11 (UTC)
Two basic reasons for that:
# It's tech, not a power
# The superherobox "Notable Powers" is meant to be a short list, rather than complete..
Put a section in the text in addition to the box, if it bugs you :) - SoM 21:54, 11 May 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, that makes sense but then the superherobox should include tech/skills because that's all some characters have (i.e. Iron Man, Elektra):Joeyconnick 22:25, 2005 May 11 (UTC)
yeah your reasoning for it not being there wasnt a very good one — ChocolateRoses talk
I've added webshooters, cell phone, and spider-tracers to the "Powers and Abilities" section.  It's not a power, but web-shooting is an ability, I guess. ; )  -- HKMARKS 03:10, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Notable Powers

message: I thought that the woman in "Ultimate Spider-Man" # 98 was Spider-Woman, and that Ultimate Shadowcat was Spider-Girl (since Spider-Man called her that when she wore her green-and-yellow spider costume). NeoCoronis 15:56, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ultimate Spidey called Kitty "Spider-Girl" but she didn't like the name.  The one in #98 doesn't have a name in print as of... today.  So, we'll see. -HKMARKS 00:33, 11 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ultimate Spider-Girl 

message: Regarding this paragraph:
:There were plans, however, to reunite Baby May and her parents. Tom Defalco intended for the "Package" in The Amazing Spider-Man #434-435 to be May, and for Kaine to bring her back to Peter and Mary Jane. That was ruled out infavor of bringing Aunt May back in the main title. Tom's original plans can be seen in flashback in Spider-Girl #49.
Was it really Tom's 'original plan' to bring back May, or is that just fan speculation? Is there a source for this? I take things like the contents of Spider-Girl as like an extended 'What If...?' and not as indicating the author's plans for 616-continuity. Should this bit be edited out?Jayunderscorezero 09:05, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I've now edited the article a bit to remove what I considered speculation.Jayunderscorezero 09:13, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: The Package

message: I seems to remember from comments from TD that this is actually an alternative PRESENT, it's not the future. Anyone else know what I'm talking about? --Charlesknight 23:56, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah.  One of the more annoying details about MC2.  It's the "future" of the characters but it's set in the present.  This really needs a citation and a clear explanation if you want to add it to the article, though.  That reminds me... around when Spider-Girl started, I sent Marvel a letter begging them to make it just a little more futuristic.  So much for that :P --HKMarksCANDY IS A FOOD GROUPTALK♦CONTRIBS 06:20, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

text: X-Men:First Class, about the original X-Men, is set in the pressent. It mentions the X-Box, for instance. --Chris Griswold  (☎☓) 07:57, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Untold Tales of Spider-Man used a similar approach, using fashions and speech that wouldn't have seemed out-of-place at any time from the 1960s to the 1990s.  Even the -1 issue, which took place at a time that was originally meant to be the late 1940s or early 1950s, was so vague about the time that it could have easily happened in the 1970s or 1980s OR the 1940s.  It's a fun trick when they bother to use it. --HKMarksTALKCONTRIBS 16:23, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: The Wizard #181 Info

message: I've noticed that someone added Magnetic manipulation to Spider-Girl's SHB powers, and categories. Her attraction/repulsion powers work on non-ferrous materials, and are based on electrostatic attraction, so I'm just wondering if "magnetism" needs to be listed as a power? Just wondering. NeoCoronis
:That was me. At the time I couldnt think of a better title for it. Thinking back now it does seem like the wrong choice. Can anybody else come up with a better term for her ability? Thefro552 17:16, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Maybe "manipulation of electrostatic attraction" or "Manipulation of Contact force". NeoCoronis 14:25, 10 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Am I the only one who thinks the line "May "Mayday" Parker is a cute and attractive 16 year old." is weird, unnecessary, and creepy?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.103.221.52 (talk) 14:37, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Creepy 

message: 'In the pages of Spider-verse Team up #3, a story written by the original Spider-Girl original creative team of Tom Defalco and Ron Frenz, it was strongly indicated that the Spider-girl seen in the 'Spider-verse' event was not in fact the original Spider-girl.'
Having read the issue, I had not noticed any such indication. Can anyone else confirm? The Amazing Spider-Man #8 & #9 clearly state that the Spider-Girl in the Spider-Verse story is from Earth 982 (a.k.a. M2). This just sounds like wishful thinking on some fans' part. I will be editing the article until someone can prove otherwise.62.61.142.23 (talk) 09:15, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
