Thanks for starting this. However, I should point out that you can't really remove tags flagging issues in the way you did. However, it is an entry that is needed and I have done some work on it, flagged the entry on the Comics Project page and asked for some extra pairs of eyes so there shouldn't be a problem with the concerns about the adspeak but do bear in mind the issue about removing tags as it will make editors unhappy.

Not a big deal in the long run - the tagging seemed a bit over zealous and I'd have removed it myself, however, removing tags from entries you've just made isn't the done thing and can make editors nervous. As I say not a big deal - I had the page on my watchlist and have been able to do some formatting work and it should be fine. The important thing is the entry was created - the series is getting a lot of interest and this kind of thing is what Wikipedia does well (as you can link into entries giving a bit more background to such old characters). So that is the aspect to focus on.
Anyway don't let the rapid tagging of the entry put you off - if you have any questions you can fire them over to me or comic questions can be asked on the project talk page. You might want to read up on the manual of style as I suspect part of the concerns the other editors had was it looked like a press release that had been copied and pasted in (you'd be surprised how often that happens) and a little formatting can go a long way ;) (Emperor 16:10, 10 August 2007 (UTC))[reply]
