The assorted links to specific strips are broken. Someone should either take the time to fix them or they should be removed.

  • I noticed that too. I already fixed weeaboo, I'll go fix the rest.--Capibara 20:12, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

It seems it's not purely a webcomic - at any rate The Guardian is planning to start publishing it soon. Does it have any (other) offline syndication yet? -86.134.115.85 20:07, 13 September 2005 (UTC)


"for example, sex is used to gently mock religion by implying that God is a pervert." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perry_Bible_Fellowship Article This seems to be a bit of a jump. Is it mocking religion or is it using the juxtaposition of the greater being doing something pervy to make a joke? I'd drop this phrase.

Agree with previous. And 'gently'? Also, although the comic is hilarious (imo), isnt this article overboard in it's detailed desciption? The comicdoend't have that much of a history yet although no doubt it will do. I've tried to genaralise it a bit more, i've left the descriptions but removed the links to the individual comics... otherwise the place would be full of links. I've also added a bit about the general extremness of the themes but that there is no full-forntal nudity. 86.135.159.172 23rd september.

[edit] Correct title?

On the PBF site, the title on the banner is actually "The Perry Bible Fellowship". I was just wondering whether the title of the entry should be change to correspond correctly -- MacAddct1984 07:21, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

"The" is part of the name but should be dropped in situations such as "did you see the new perry bible fellowship cartoon." -- Dan Reitz 17:21, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Well, the "the" on the link is lowercase, wheras the rest of the name is capitalised, so it's questionable whether the article is part of the name or not. In the Guardian article linked to in the entry, however, it's referred to as "The Perry Bible Fellowship". Having found last Friday's Guardian, it's simply labelled as "Perry Bible Fellowship", so there's plenty of argument both ways. -Sam Pointon 07:46, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
On the bio page, the author says The name of the weekly comic strip that I draw is "The Perry Bible Fellowship." On the website, it seems to be referred to as either BPF, or The Perry Bible Fellowship with "The" sometimes capitalized, and sometimes not. It appears we should move this page, but I'm going to wait for someone else to agree with me before moving it.Quentin mcalmott 22:57, 24 November 2005 (UTC)
Move it. ☢ Ҡieff 16:31, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
Late to the argument...but I say change it. Going on a stretch here, but..take Homestarrunner for example. they have a character called The Cheat. not just Cheat, but The Cheat. So..yeah. Luca 6:06, 25 February 2006 (EST)


Moving it. --Switch 14:55, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Big words?

This edit: [1] was made by User:DyslexicEditor saying he does not like big words. I think that with wikipedia being an encyclopedia, using "big words" is not a problem; it should be encouraged so that its users learn new things. In fact, I recall actually learning the meaning of "juxtaposition" right after reading it in this very article. I'm reverting the edit. Wouter Lievens 12:49, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

The dictionary said it meant to "juxtapose" and then it was vague on that. I changed it because I was reading the article and couldn't read it clearly until I changed that jibberish to something clear. DyslexicEditor 13:22, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Wikipedia's article on Juxtaposition was clear enough to me. I'm sure your dictionary has a more useful entry on "juxtapose", then. Wouter Lievens 13:28, 7 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Webcomic

As it is pointed out above, this is not only on the Internet, and in fact I found it early in its run in the Baltimore City Paper. What makes this a webcomic and not a regular comic strip? --Chris Griswold 20:20, 20 June 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Section on the Skub internet phenomenon?

Since it redirects here, there should be a section relating to the huge internet phenomenon on skub. --Mystalic 13:15, 19 July 2006 (UTC)

What are you talking about?--Drat (Talk) 10:02, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
"Skub" redirects here. There should be a section on it. Klosterdev 04:19, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

skub redirects here but the article does not mention skub. Quit creating these dead redirects. --84.30.90.199 23:01, 4 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, do something about it. This is wikipedia, do it yourself. - STAREYe 01:40, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
Same thing for weeaboo. I have no idea what that means, nor why I got redirected here, since there is no mention of that word in the article.213.172.254.64 14:36, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

There's no real point in having a section for one strip, just because some people may not get the joke. Plus I thought Skub was pretty obvious. 70.39.158.78 21:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
