thread_title: WikiProject Comics B-Class Assesment required

message: Just created the section using scraps of info already on the page: didn't really add anything but a start in the right direction: i know maddie's got A LOT of 'behind the scenes' stories. Es-won (talk) 02:30, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Apparently some people feel that Claremont's plans for the character and their very famous upheaval don't belong in the publication history, but then i ask, what does? Lets have some consensus here, rather than retroactive undo's, shall we? In the meantime, I have recreated the (i feel, unneccessary) "Creator's commentary" section.

replies: text: It is necessary to have details of publication and character development and the publication history is a good place for it to go. We should try and avoid peacock terms like "acclaimed" (which might be OK in the reception section on the title with suitable references but gets tricky in contexts like this). (Emperor (talk) 03:36, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

text: I understand, but I'm not using "acclaimed" to blow smoke up someone's ass, I'm trying to convey that the 11-issue run or whatever by Claremont and Smith had a lot of shit happening in it, specifically the introduction and marriage of Madelyne Pryor, which would form the character's status quo for the next 3 years. .... But okay, removal of peacock terms aside, Claremont's opinion in itself, is that okay? Es-won (talk) 05:02, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Publication history

message: All of the links within this line: "Marvel attempted to address these problems through a retcon, in the 1989 Inferno crossover (co-scripted by Louise Simonson, with Claremont), where Madelyne is revealed to be a clone of Jean Grey, created by Mr. Sinister to produce a child with Scott Summers, and corrupted by her anger and demonic influence into the Goblin Queen, leading to her elimination — editorial and story decisions which have all added only further controversy towards Marvel ever since." appear to me to be a really obvious editorialization and do not fit in the current style of Wikipedia. It reads more like something from TV Tropes and doesn't look professional or encyclopedic. I would honestly just delete the links and leave in one link for the word "retcon" that would link to the page explaining retroactive continuity. At the very least, each of the links should only be the length of a single word or two word phrase and not comprise entire sentences. I'm going to change it myself, but I have a feeling it will just get reverted. Even if you do revert it, please consider the opinion I'm presenting here and come up with a more professional presentation of your own in how to present this information to the reader. 72.188.120.12 (talk) 12:28, 18 February 2015 (UTC)
