This needs more of a header, somehow.... Bo-Lingua 19:59, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I think that there is a wikipedia standard header for this kind of thing somewhere... Plus, i know how anal you are Roman, so shouldn't the title be capitalised...? Davepealing 20:07, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Characters

There is a character infobox availiable for comic characters. However, it is designed for real comics, not webcomics. do you think it would be appropriate to use those for this page? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Comics/templates Davepealing 20:09, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

It could work, but I wouldn't want to see one for ever person, and I don't know that we need to name more than the main cast. We can list the secondary cast below. Bo-Lingua 20:12, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I know what you mean, i don't think that the really minor character need to be listed at all... how about those boxes for just the main 5 or 6 say, then the major minor characters in a list, then the minor minor characters in their appropriate storylines? Davepealing 20:21, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I only worry about the size of the boxes...they're very wide and long and that could take up a LOT of page space, something I would personally like to avoid. Is there a way around that? Bo-Lingua 20:30, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

I do know what you mean, it can look very untidy. Perhaps if only used for the main characters is shouldn't matter too much, because there is plenty of writing there that would go down the side of box, then not use them for the minor ones. It was just a suggestion really, maybe you can change the dimensions? Davepealing 20:38, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

You're probably growing sick of me by now but I'm still a fan of giving each character their own page, on which there is the infobox for... well, info, and then the rest of the page for all the description etc. there just seems to be too much for one page. Also, while it would be good to have each minor character mentioned alongside their storyline, if they feature in more than one it could get messy. Plus having one singe character list to which one can refer is most useful, for example if you can't remember which story they featured in, but can remember their name/what they looked like... i guess it works the other way around, too, so having each character feature alongside their story would be good too...

I just don't know that the characters of this comic merit their own page. I think a collective page is enough. It's not as though they're all that deep, after all. Bo-Lingua 22:42, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

Just a query; what does this sentence mean: "As it stands, Skids and Cyan share a strange relationship, often making out for the sake of each other's comforts without thought of seriousness or consequence.". I think that it's wording is a little unclear; even having read it several times, I can't work out what its supposed to mean...? Tirhakah 17:21, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
