Why is XIII written as X I I I in the article? It hurts my eyes... Riki 13:38, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
There's a thing that confuses me about the succession of presidents in the series. I'd love to see this cleared up (on this talk page):
Now, my question is, which of these were Democrats and which were Republicans? In volume 13, it is revealed that William Sheridan is a Democrat, and his running mate Galbrain is described as a typical "soutern ticket" conservative. In the events that describe the presidential campaign between Walter Sheridan and Galbrain, the candidate's speeches make it obvious that Galbrain runs a conservative campaign whereas Sheridan campaigns for liberal causes (although he later turns out to attempt a military coup to install a neo-fascist regime and start WW3).
Now my question is: what party did Galbrain belong to? If he was a conservative democrat, how come he ran in a general election against another Democrat, and where was the republican candidate? If he was a republican, why was he a democrat's running mate? Has that happened in the recent past? I know this is fiction, I just wanted to know if there's a (canon?) answer. I have all the books and they don't seem to address the issue. Wouter Lievens 09:33, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
Propose that It be moved per the Wikipedia:Naming conventions (comics) guideline, to fall in line with all the others using (comics). Anyone have strong feelings and good reason why not? MURGH disc. 23:11, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
Actually, in this case, since it's disabiguating between another media type (a game, in this case), a case could be made that (comic book) is the correct disambiguation. See: Wikipedia:Naming conventions (comics)#Disambiguation between media types. However, since "game" is not one of the media types discussed previously (and is not mentioned in the NC), one could also suggest that (comics) is the correct disambiguation. I think personally, I would lean towards Wikipedia:Naming conventions (precision) and suggest (comic book) as acceptable in this case. Though more discussion would obviously be welcome. - jc37 11:31, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- [Imported discussion]:(clarifying) - Disabiguation of XIII could go either way, depending on if we consider a "game" a media type. (I'm leaning towards "yes", and so (comic book) would be appropriate in that case.) Hope this helps : ) - jc37 11:34, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
So, the RM suggestion still stands. As XIII has no need of specific sub-disambiguation, XIII "game" isn't a parallel media type subject that would be confused with the XIII of comics, which not only is the title of this series but also the name used for the main character, I mean the move is still appropriate.

Just feeling a need to share a random discovery/connection: the SPADS (SPecial Assault Destroying Section) military group in the XIII story appears to be named for the SPAD S.XIII, a french WWI fighter bi-plane. -- Mogens69 21:57, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
Hi, there is several inaccuracies and omissions in the storyline, but I prefer not to fix it myself, my english is too bad. Could someone else fix it ? Here what it is :
There is a XIII boardgame, which is quite good as I've heard. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.145.100.34 ( talk) 08:54, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
Should there be an entire new page for the new side albums [1] or can we just add a section onto here? Stewartdc8 ( talk) 06:47, 30 October 2008 (UTC)

We should probably create a character section, outlining only the main characters. or is it not really necessary?
Also, wondering whether anyone would like to create individual pages for each issue? It would help cut down on the length of the plot section on this page as well. Stewartdc8 ( talk) 02:57, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
