He died in November according to the box, in August according to the body text.
I had heard that WCN etc. died with him, but according to this they shut down in April; why? — Tamfang ( talk) 22:59, 29 September 2018 (UTC)

Will be doing this review as part of a Discord GAN trade deal with Mable. As this nomination's subject is outside my usual line of expertise, it may take a while for me to do this review, but for now, my main suggestion is that the article, particularly the Early life section, may need more footnotes.

"To learn more about webcomics ... such as Harvey Pekar and Will Eisner"is all cited to one source. If you want, I can duplicate the citation usage, but I believe this can end up looking quite messy. It is a trade-off. ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat) 20:13, 16 November 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for the work Mable. I think all of my concerns raised above have been addressed, and thus I'm happy to say that I am passing this nomination. Good work. As this has now been promoted, I'd suggest you nominate this for DYK within seven days. Narutolovehinata5 t c csd new 03:59, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

There is one thing
ChrisBike (

. See
this edit. Some sources that include this information include
the Shaenon Garrity obituary,
the Dirk Deppey interview as well as this unused
Wired article which doesn't mention Manley specifically. Perhaps
Narutolovehinata5 (

"Manley’s stated goal was to bring in a living wage for its artists in five years."[4] I personally don't feel like lucrativity is overemphasised in the article, but maybe I am clumsily trying to balance out the fact that half of the sources are written by people who likely met Manley and write very positively about him. I'd like to know what you're thinking, as your edits have been quite constructive (though I have had difficulty not feeling owenership over the article especially as it went through the GA process :s ). ~ Maplestrip/Mable ( chat) 06:06, 21 November 2018 (UTC)
