[edit] Citation

The citation ([1]) doesn't go anywhere. Tar7arus 13:48, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Gender

Is it accurate to refer to Robo as an "it" in the article? In the comic, Robo clearly self-identifies as male and is referred to by other characters as a "he" or "him". Co-creators Clevinger and Wegener also refer to Robo by male pronouns in their respective blogs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.175.201.127 (talk) 01:04, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Wegener's a friend of mine. If I remember him correctly, Robo is male and therefore...a he. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.184.132.39 (talk) 17:21, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Expansion to Wiki

Should we set up a wiki for the Robo universe? Brian Clevinger has already displayed an interest in having one. But, in his own words: "Except that I’m too stupid to install one. This should come as a surprise to no one."

So, do we go foreward with his wishes? From what I've already seen of the series, and from Brian's own boasting, having a wiki will help enormously for the organization of the whole, reinvented 80+ years of alternate history that will be coming our way. It will be easier on us all if we get started on that before it becomes big enough to justify having its own wiki(and believe me, it will!), but an already large enough mass of information to make such an endevour a serious undertaking.

Any objections? Schizophrenic wispers 01:50, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Go for it. Wikia makes such things straightforward. I would recommend dropping someone on the Atomic Robo site a note though as I think they'd probably want to make it official. Installing Mediawiki is also pretty straightforward and their site runs on PHP so it might be they'd want do it on their site and as someone must have installed what is there already they can probably do the technical work - which would make life simpler as you'd just need to be volunteering effort and wiki-expertise.
