[edit] Death Hawk

Please stop reverting this page to a non-encyclopedic form that does not adhere to Wikipedia policies, or editorial guidelines. Continuing to revert contrary to such policies and guidelines, and without edit summaries or explanation on the article's discussion page, may be considered vandalism. For formal purposes, this is warning one. --Tenebrae 19:12, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

How about allowing the page creator/editor to decide its content before you make an arbitrary decision to gut it? This is starting to seem punitive and vindictive.User: JamesaxlerJamesaxler 00:13, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and articles are written in a neural, encyclopedic tone, with editorial guidelines as to subheads, formatting, etc. All content must be verifiable and demonstrably accurate and relevant. Also, no one "owns" an article, including the "page creator/editor"; I know a lot of people who haven't read Wikipedia policies and guidelines might not understand that, and so I'd ask you to see the Welcome links at the top of this page.

If you'd like me to call in an admin for you to address complaints about me, I'd be glad to. I have to tell you, however, that I'm following Wiki format, guidelines and editorial policy -- one of which is assume good faith. Accusing a fellow editor of vindictiveness -- and I assure you, I don't know you and, if it were even my nature, I have no reason to be vindictive.

I'm going to return the page to a properly formatted condition. There is nothing personal here; go to my user contributions or to my user page, and I think you'll see that through my cumulative history here.

The Wiki community welcomes all responsible editors, and I'm glad to see, for instance, that you've registered. Give those links above a read, and be part of our community. Good Wiki'ing to you -- Tenebrae 00:46, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

OK, I think we need to call an admin in. First of all, you can't put copyrights on the images; by putting images here, you certify they are copyright-free. Please read the policies. On a separate issue, the article's language has to be neutral. I don't see that in some of your edits ("reader reaction was so positive that Death Hawk was given his own title"; "A review [uncited] referred to Cyke as 'one of the most original sidekicks in the history of comics.'") which leads me to believe you are not a disinterested party. And the subheads need to remain per editorial guidelines and the WikiComics Project examplar.

I can put a Request for Comment on the WikiProject Comics Board if you like; just say so. Until then, you cannot put copyrighted images on this or any Wikipedia page. --Tenebrae 01:25, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
