Talk:Superhero fiction

message: I'd argue that this article could do with a bit of wikification (I saw the template).  Seeing as it doesn't look like anyone else regularly keeps an eye on this page, I'd like to take it up.
I suggest the following alterations:
* Splitting off 'Partial list of superhero fiction books' into its own page entitled List of superhero fiction novels;
* A rewrite for style etc.;
* Referencing claims.
I'd be able to get on this in the next few days, but there's no rush.  Anyone got suggestions/objections?  For now I'm just going to add a few internal links. Dougano (talk) 10:25, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree the list does not add anything and would be best on its own page (or possibly not included at all). --ThaddeusB (talk) 17:53, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Since this 2008 discussion and another discussion in June 2010, little has been done on this woefully unencyclopedic entry, which reads like a college essay or a fanzine article. It's an important and also highly extensive topic — likewise the similarly woeful entry Superhero — and it's going to take more than one or two people to fix it. I'm calling for fellow members of WIkiProject Comics to take this under their wings. I've done a little today, but it needs much, much more. --Tenebrae (talk) 16:31, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Rewrite? 

message: Most of this article should probably be at superhero comics (as it discusses the comic book superheroes and then tags on non-comics media on the end), the rest seems to be covered at superhero (which is the central article for this genre) or if not then it should really be there. Wouldn't it be better to split off chunks of this article and merge them to others and then possibly either repurpose this as "superhero novels" or just redirect it to superhero.

replies: text: In my opinion, no.  Fiction(novels and short stories) and comics are different media.Chasrob (talk) 23:29, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I hate to sound negative with a newcomer, but since we're building an encyclopedia, and we need to know accurate definitions, it's important to point out that superhero comics are a form of fiction. Fiction is not just novels and short stories. Fiction includes movies and plays and other things. -- Tenebrae (talk) 23:45, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  A bit of a mish-mash 

message: Can someone please fix the title of the Criticism section on the article?  It now says Critism and it should be Criticism.  Does anyone proofread these Wikipedia artilces?  I find quite a few of them with misspellings and grammatical errors.68.54.148.211 (talk) 21:52, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: So why didn't you fix it yourself? --Orange Mike  |  Talk 23:42, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Criticism 

message: :File:Astro boy.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 non-free use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure 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. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
