Undue Weight

The article seems to be positive to xkcd. It lists xkcd's awards and recognition, but does not mention any negative criticism the webcomic has received. LongGiraffe45 (talk) 21:06, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@LongGiraffe45, can you point to any reliable sources that offer criticism of xkcd? Schazjmd (talk) 21:30, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

xkcd's What If?

Should the mention of the YouTube channel "xkcd's What If" be in quotes or italics? It looks out of place right now. I am not familiar with the Wikipedia style protocol here. Boonerquad (talk) 17:30, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
