Talk:List of professional webcomic artists

message: I would like to request the information on this page be sourced and/or verified. It seems like a number of comics have been recently added but I haven't seen anything about them fully supporting the artist. Nifboy 01:31, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've added as may sources as I could find, and then removed the unsourced information from this list. If anyone has a source for these or any other comics, then add the comic to the list but also provide a source. -- Dragonfiend 18:09, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

message: To clarify, would this be the primary means of support for the cartoonist, or the cartoonist's household?  Does it not count if the cartoonist's spouse has a day job, for instance? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Terra Misu (talk • contribs) 15:46, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  criteria 

message: According to the July 16, 2007 news item on drmcninja.com, the comic makes enough money to support the author, but not the inker. Does this count as 'self-sufficient'? Marvin 04:29, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Phil Foglio was a notable cartoonist before there was a Web.  Has he no current non-Web projects?  —Tamfang 01:56, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Just so that you know. Also, doesn't that make Goblins! notable enough to have its page on Wikipedia?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.70.52.200 (talk) 00:36, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Added Goblins!

message: Do we know if Kochalka is supported primarily by American Elf and his other comics, or by his music career?  Either way, he still essentially has two jobs, unless it could be claimed that his music career is part of his webcomic... 70.90.171.153 (talk) 00:31, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: How would independent sources know if not from the primary?  —Tamfang (talk) 19:41, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Stalking the artist/author, and getting investigators to search out other sources of income? This would be a bit heavy-weight as effort goes, and there's no much motive for artists to lie about a comic being self-sufficient. 173.70.24.75 (talk) 03:42, 11 January 2010 (UTC)

message: phd comic is not there?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.67.120.225 (talk) 11:46, 18 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree, PHD Comics should be on the list.  Jorge Cham works on the strip (and books and lectures related to it) full time now (see e.g. http://engineering.stanford.edu/alumni/pdfs/pdf_cham.pdf).  It should be included in this list. Linnormlord (talk) 05:56, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: If you can cite it, they will come. :) Added. -- Quiddity (talk) 18:08, 7 September 2010 (UTC)

message: The Questionable Content page lists the comic as self sufficient, and links to this page. Said comic is not, however, listed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.181.81.176 (talk) 05:50, 19 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually it is listed.  Look in the "reported by third party" section... its there. -- RandorXeus.  23:51, 20 March 2010 (UTC)

message: Jeph reported on his site that he and Brandi have separated. Is she still his business manager? Taylorderek (talk) 07:14, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: He reported this many months ago that they were separated but were still working together and were friends. I haven't seen anything to say that she is not. Regardless, this would not be notable enough to put in an article. TLSuda (talk) 11:57, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Questionable Content Divorce 

message: Should Onstad still be included in this list? He hasn't updated his comic in nearly a year and it's been on and off hiatus since 2010. I'd assume it's no longer his primary source of income. 75.142.77.31 (talk) 00:14, 30 January 2015 (UTC)
