Talk:Bil Keane

message: I rewrote the comments concerning Bill Watterson to remove the editorial commentary and to reflect a more neutral POV. I also added the references and links for the quotes. Then moved the entire section out of the friends section and into a new disputes category.CactusWriter (talk) 15:13, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Watterson Comments

message: Without a citation, the speculation about Bil's successor is crystal-ball-gazing and doesn't belong.  Even with a citation, unless it's confirmed in the citation as a firm succession plan like the original Dear Abby had with her daughter, it doesn't belong.  davidwr/(talk)/(contribs)/(e-mail) 17:28, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Added citation from article in September 2000 issue of Cartoonist Profiles which states that Bil Keane "handpicked his eventual successor. Actually, he created one years ago -- his youngest son." CactusWriter 18:50, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

message: The decade-long tradition of creative deconstruction or vandalism on the reviews of Keane's books on Amazon.com is probably worth a mention as an internet phenomenon.

message: Is there a citation for the sentence about his friendship with Timothy Leary, and their falling out leading to Keane becoming a conservative?  I sure can't find another reference to it on the web. Circumspect (talk) 21:31, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Obvious vandalism that can be deleted immediately per WP:BLP. This is the edit by an IP which also added this bio to Category:Bloods. Thanks for bringing it to attention.  — CactusWriter (talk) 23:16, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
