message: This article doesn't cite any of Bill's influences. I used to have, but no longer own, a copy of Marvel Age, a in-house pulication put out by Marvel where creators or editors could discuss upcoming projects. In the issue discussing ELEKTRA ASSASSIN, Sienkiewicz talked about some of his influences. Neal Adams was an early influence, but as his style changed, Bill cited BOB PEAK, GUSTAV KLIMT and RALPH STEADMAN.Depending on the project, the influence of any one of these artists seems to become more apparent.MARK VENTURE (talk) 00:23, 26 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Influences are indeed important in encyclopedia entries about artists. If you can find the issue of Marvel Age with the article, in order to give a citation and to confirm those inspirations, that would be great.

thread_title: December 2010 derailment and "incidents" section

message: User:Joeyconnick prefers wording saying that "Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville, who delayed the abolition of the transatlantic slave trade" (implication: guilty) rather than that he was "blamed for delaying" its abolition (implication: allegation). The cited city document cited "Henry Dundas' role in delaying the abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave trade" and "Whatever the motivation behind his amendment may have been, the consequences of Dundas' actions are clear."
Dundas was an abolitionist who inserted the word "gradually" in an emancipation bill. See: Henry Dundas, 1st Viscount Melville#Academic dispute over Dundas's impact on abolition. A recent Star article said "Henry Dundas' legacy is disputed, but many experts agree he helped delay the abolition of the trans-Atlantic slave trade while an 18th Century British minister." A National Post article disputed blaming Dundas.

message: Is the inclusion of sales important? If it is, where did the figures come from? Where is the citation?
I don't think it's a notable piece of information that should be included in the article. Especially considering other musician's pages don't typically have sales figure listed. It is difficult for someone browsing the page to determine if it's significant or not, especially when it's probably sales figure from Japan which would differ from US (again, no citation or indicateion of what the figure means). Oricon Chart would be more important, but not much of a point unless the song did particularly well.
