Talk:The Invisible Man

message: This article doesn't mention any thing about the book by H. G. Wells.
The first name Hawley is an attribution of Alan Moore in the "League of Extraordinary Gentlemen", not from the Wells scientific romance.
Quite right -- I've removed the reference after checking the book -- he's just "Griffin" in the original. AxS 15:07, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Book 

message: Is this phrase capitalized in the novel?  It seems to me it should be lower case, as Reign of Terror capitalized generally refers to the bloody reprisals of the revolutionary government under Robespierre in the French Revolution. Canonblack 01:07, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Reign of Terror" 

message: There are a number of Wikipedia articles about characters from the novel--there are 13 in the category "The Invisible Man characters", though some of them are from the movie version.  Many of these are very minor characters, as indicated by the fact that a bunch of them don't need to be mentioned in the main article's plot summary.  For those characters that are mentioned, including Griffin (The Invisible Man), the articles are mostly plot summary, leading to considerable duplication.
I'm thinking that most if not all of these articles can't really justify their independent existence--that they should be turned into a character section in this article, or if that seems awkward, perhaps a separate Invisible Man characters article. Nareek 04:50, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I am a fan of the film and the book but I think that the separate character articles are prime candidates indeed for 'articles for deletion'. Colin4C 09:17, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Invisible Man characters 

message: There's no need for each minor character to have their own section, or even for them to be detailed at all. For example, there's little value in stating Mrs. Hall is a very friendly, down-to-earth woman who enjoys socializing with her guests. Virtually all articles about novels that have become Featured Articles don't have these character details, and neither do other articles about H.G. Wells novels, so they should be removed to bring this article into line with other novel articles and allow for improvement in other areas. Any relevant character information should be mentioned in the plot summary. Magiclite 20:30, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The whole bio section on Griffin is just additional plot details. Since there is already a main article, that needs to be gutted and rewritten. --Tysto (talk) 14:39, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

text: I went ahead and did this. --Tysto (talk) 15:08, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There's still too much duplicated plot information in the character descriptions.  There are also a lot of irrelevant references to Alan Moore and the various adaptations of the book, all of which have their own articles.  The film and television serial sections about Kemp belong in the 'Adaptations' heading if they belong anywhere. --90.214.206.203 (talk) 11:34, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Characters 

message: I think that to reveal that the main character "********* ************** *** ****** *** *******" at the end of the history is a massive spoiler to the book, i'm deletimg that part. Nicrorus (talk) 04:04, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  The Introduction Paragraphs 

message: I've removed the line about it being a plot mistake that you can see the invisible man's blood.  He himself explains "Gets visible as it coagulates, I see."  That is to say it is made visible by a chemical change  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.21.0.203 (talk) 17:34, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
