Talk:Light of the Day

Back to page

Where does the information on the title come from? It was previously titled "Light of Day" here and Memory Alpha uses that title as well. --Jdvelasc 03:57, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

And IDW's site also gives the title as "Light of Day". I'm close to calling the person who made this change (and has also written a large number of poor and inaccurate articles as well) a vandal. --Seventy 15:03, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
I wouldn't say vandal, as the edits are intended to improve the wiki, but lack style and substance. I'm assuming the contributor does not have a grasp of the English language equal to our own, nor much grasp of standard HTML/wiki coding. The fact remains though that this is resulting in a large number of articles needing cleanup, you are absolutely right. -- Captain MKB 16:08, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Let's be nice to each other please. As Mike mentioned, there is no reason whatever to think this is vandalism. And Mike, a quick scan of very large number of articles that User:AT2Howell has been writing gives me every indication that he has no need to work on his English. But that doesn't matter anyway. As for the issue of the large number of new pages that are stubs, first of all, there often isn't really much more to say. Second, new pages are the hardest to work on (in my opinion) and certainly among the most important. Third, a user (especially a new user) should be applauded for putting in the amount of work required to do what he has been doing. So Kudos to you AT2Howell. Thank you for improving our wiki.

But on to the real issue - the title of this page. AT2Howell has pointed out that the title on the inside of the cover is "Light of the Day". If this is correct, it is simply a case of somebody at IDW either getting it wrong on their webpage or mislabeling their comic. I am inclined to go with the title on the comic even if the writers wish it were something else. But I am open to other opinions on this. Surely something like this has happened before. --Jdvelasc 16:53, 5 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes. The inside cover reads "Light of the Day". The IDW webpage indicates "Light of Day". Lots of joy. I've moved the MA/en version of it, and will attack the MB one shortly. Blah. Btw... that "report a problem" thing? Dumb. Better to tie things to the talk page than random articles here and there. -- Sulfur 18:40, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
As an aside... all of the links to "Light of Day" have been cleaned up to point to the correct location now. Templates refreshed and all. Enjoy.  :) -- Sulfur 00:03, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
