[edit] Images
Any reason why the 3rd Yellow Peri image was removed? --Manomight1974
There were too many large images in such a small entry, the images were all way too big. I am editing them now. --Super Monkey 23:23, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
Any way we could get the 3rd image back, this time edited SM? I really liked THAT one. --Manomight1974
Are you planing to add more text to the entry? If you are I will put it back.--Super Monkey 23:31, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
If she had had any more appearances beyond the four I listed, believe, me I would add more text.--Manomight1974 19:36, 23 September 2008 (EST)
I really like the third image, but agree that it overwhelmed the article; so I installed a thumb for it. A'dam'mkent 3272 00:44, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Time
Time in stories.
I just wanted to bring this up because it sometimes is a problem. When we write a story "happens" in a specific year, it introduces weird paradoxes. For instance, a reader might read that SuperBOY meets someone in 1985 and then read an entry that states that SuperMAN meets someone in 1963. Whenever possible, I try to say that these years were the dates of the account (the year the story was told) rather than the actual meeting. I realize that many entries that were copied from The Great Superman Book here don't do this. --MatterEaterLad 00:28, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Fleischer didn't have to deal with this in The Great Superman Book because he had less of a span of Superman to deal with, and because he didn't include Superboy at all! --MatterEaterLad 00:33, 24 September 2008 (UTC)
Which is in fact a great shame, as he completely edited out a major chunk of Superman lore (whether purposely or accidentally) by omitting the Superboy years.--Manomight1974 21:00, 23 September 2008 (EST)
[edit] "Yellow Peri" or "The Yellow Peri"?
I don't have this issue, is the character in question actually called "The Yellow Peri"? If so, I'm wondering whether or not it makes sense to move the article to that name. -- A'dam'mkent 3272 03:21, 25 September 2008 (UTC)
She is actually called "The" Yellow Peri, which is why I put that as the bolded headline above the text, and just Yellow Peri. It is similar in fact to the way Batman is referred to as both "The" Batman and just Batman. I don't think there is any real need to move her entry.--Manomight1974 08:26, 25 September 2008 (EST)
