I think we need to have an entry on Sunburst.  Superboy did encounter him in I believe 3 consecutive issues in New Adventures of Superboy.  I think it is necessary to include him. --[[User:Manomight1974|Manomight1974]]

I would like to add information to the Bruce Wayne entry regarding a story that appeared in the Superboy Spectacular special from 1980 (I think that was the year), but I have no idea how to refer to the issue at the end of the entry.  I know the date and name of the story, but I do not know what abbreviation to use to refer to the issue (i.e., using "NSB" to refer to the New Adventures of Superboy).  Does anyone have a clue as to what we should call it?  --[[User:Manomight1974|Manomight1974]] 10:34 pm, 8 October 2009 (EST)

Hi. I think that the title should just be spelled out because we don't have an established abbreviation for Superboy Spectacular. If you do choose to abbreviate it, I would suggest "SB Spec".

I tried to shrink the images down as much as possible w/o losing a good view of her costume(s).  Sorry about the issue SM. --[[User:Manomight1974|Manomight1974]]

I think we need to add a separate section for Supergirl, similar to tthe one we have for Superboy (Superboy Era).  This would enable us to differentiate things in the Silver and Bronze ages between the two Kryptonian cousins. --[[User:Manomight1974|Manomight1974]] 11:22 pm, 4 April 2010 (EST)
  
I don't know how big your display is, but other people here have the same issue, for example Mattereaterlad's pics tend to be way too small :) Other post extremely low res pics because they do not have proper editing programs. At least I can work with big pics ;) I still rather I didn't have to. Look at the entry now, I think it looks a lot better now, IMHO.--[[User:Super Monkey|Super Monkey]] 23:30, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. I think a Jimmy Olsen category would be useful, too. I recently created one for Lois Lane. --[[User:DrJohnnyDiablo|DrJohnnyDiablo]] 9:08 pm, 5 April 2010 (CST)
  
It does indeed look good now, but don't go and get a swelled head from the compliment :)  This was my first attempt at uploading images, so I'm again sorry for the issues it caused.  I'll try not to do that again, but if I do, even though I know you don't like it, I know you'll be there to watch my back.

Please respond to talk pages on the new entries. They are how we communicate. --MatterEaterLad 23:01, 20 September 2008 (UTC)


Please do not add entries like II or III to names, they aren't names that appear in the comics. Explanations should not be used in entries either, the stories can only be said to conflict or possibly attributed to realities based on content. Changing a name from "Ardora" to "Ardora of Lexor" is not necessary and creates too many redirects. While it is possible to change EVERY name to the name plus the planet they come from, it would not be a good idea at all. Please look around to see how these things are handled before implementing, especially in large numbers.

When in doubt, use TALK pages rather than just going ahead and doing it. Also, we try to use links in articles rather than REDIRECTS on Supermanica. But, aside from edits or brand new entries, please, please, PLEASE do not decide on new names or categories and introduce them in mass. --MatterEaterLad 11:16, 16 September 2008 (UTC)


Please use Categories and you must list the issues where the entries appeared in.

Mano, I notice that you are editing pages to alter the tense of the entries. Since the goal of Supermanica is to chronicle characters who, in the canonical sources, are still very much alive, entries are generally written in the present tense, following the example of The Great Superman Book. Unless the subjects are shown to have unequivocally died at some point in the chronicles, their actions should not be referred to in the past tense.

Thus, the Guardian "wears" yellow gloves, etc. He "is" encountered, described, etc. --Telle 11:49, 25 Nov 2005 (EST)
