This page was in drastic need of being cleaned up. I restructured it, added some history, and removed some of the blatantly uncited/speculative passages (while I'm a great fan of the character, exactly where does the proof that he has a large fan base come from?).
Anyhow, I think it reads a lot better now, though if anyone has any suggestions?
As much as I like the fanfic mentioned in the bio, it doesn't seem especially relevant - not to mention, referencing a fanfic seems like a very, very, very dangerous precedent. (If one is mentioned in a Shocker entry, why not more in Spider-man? Harry Potter? Who decides which fanfics get to be mentioned, and is it NPOV to say that one is well-written?) So I'm removing that last sentence. Tinderblast 21:15, 9 June 2006 (UTC)
Why is their a "Herman Shultz" page and a "Shocker" Page? I request a merge. 68.166.70.23 04:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
Since the Shocker's picture show him blasting someone, should it not be mentioned who this someone is?
And I humbly request someone more familar with Ultimate Spiderman to work on the Ultimate section. Didn't the Shocker affect Ultimate Punisher? I -dimly- recall the Shocker's first case being news to a rapist, who wanted to use it to get out of jail and go after an almost-victim. The Punisher then kills the rapist. If this really happened, I think it includes mention.

I read somewhere that the "shocker" hand-gesture was referenced in the comics at some point. If anybody has it, could you please post the relevant panel?
Also, shouldn't there be something about how the Shocker was originally going to be called "the Vibrator" (because he has powers of vibration, not electricity, which is Electro's thing), until some editor realized...well, you know. Which is why he has a "V" on his belt to this day. No idea where I heard this from, unfortunately.
I knew it! I watched an episode of Spiderman: The Animated Series with Shocker in it, and I recognized his voice. He's the same guy who voiced General Parvo on Road Rovers. Ben 10 15:30, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
Image:Shockerthe.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

First of all, I don’t think it’s worth noting in the infobox that he has genius-level intelligence. If that is even true, he seems to be a pretty sub-par genius, not even anywhere near the likes of Doctor Octopus for example. This is such a common trait for comic book characters that I can’t see why we would want to list it that way for every character that just happens to be highly intelligent; show me a skill, not a trait. Also, we have no source for this information. If it was from some chart or graph then those are basically useless, and something like Marvel.com (aka the Marvel Wiki) then that is not a valid source either. Show me something from the comics, where it is explicitly stated that he is a genius. In fact, if it says something like "scientific genius" or "genius inventor" describing him in a comic, then I would rather see that in an infobox because it really tells me something about him. 129.33.19.254 ( talk) 15:14, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
He is an inventor for gods sake. At least allow that he is a skilled engineer. You just wasted my contributions, how in the hell am I supposed to contribute to this pathetic site if everything I do is deleted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FictionFan2013 ( talk • contribs) 13:06, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
This edit war between 2601:d:9400:3cd and Crashsnake needs to stop. Both of you need to post your rationale for your edits here and have a civil debate between yourselves, with other editors chiming in their opinion. Spidey 104 13:56, 20 January 2014 (UTC)

I don't know where that image comes from in the info box, but it isn't Amazing Spider-Man #579. Clashwho ( talk) 13:34, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
