As the remit of this group is to put more focus on non-Marvel/DC articles I think the first aim should be to get the entries for the main publishers as quite a few of them have only just managed to shake off notability tags and still need a lot of work, sometimes to less the impact of editing by people connected to the company. So for example: Dark Horse Comics. ( Emperor 14:08, 28 October 2007 (UTC))
I was just adding the work group to Devil's Due Productions and spotted the fact that List of Devil's Due Productions publications wasn't even linked in from there and the list there isn't as long as the one on the actual page.
This got my thinking as Dark Horse Comics, Image Comics, IDW Publishing, etc. all have big old lists on their main page which seems unnecessary and leads to bulky and unwieldy pages. It struck me all we really need there are the current titles and then we can keep the big assed lists on a separate page. Oddly Dark Horse has a separate list for List of current Dark Horse Comics publications which seems to be the wrong way round to me, obviously current publication lists take a bit more work to stay up-to-date and having them on the main page seems ideal as they get the focus there.
So that is what I'm suggesting (and exactly the kind of thing the project is for ;) ): Keep the main page for a company history and current publications and move the lists of titles to a separate entry.
Thoughts? ( Emperor 15:03, 29 October 2007 (UTC))
Are you guys handling the original English-language comics published by companies like Tokyopop? Bizenghast, I Luv Halloween are a couple of examples. As I was putting together some resources for the world comics group, I realized that Anime News Network might be helpful for some general info and news on those types of series. It's an independent, pretty complete database for "manga-style" comics and is, by and large, considered pretty reliable. Great as a starting point, anyway! -- hamu♥hamu ( TALK) 03:31, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Does your project care about what happens to the talk pages of articles that have been replaced with redirects? If so, please provide your input at User:Mikaey/Request for Input/ListasBot 3. Thanks, Matt ( talk) 02:29, 12 May 2009 (UTC)
Right now I'm going through Category:Comics images lacking original published source and sorting the images by work group. The US related images are at Category:Comics images lacking original published source/US.
If it's ok, I'm going to ad this clean up to the "to do" list.

There is currently an RfC on the article discussion page for DC Extended Universe regarding the inclusion of the as-yet unmade Batman movie; to whit, is there notable, reliable sourcing that the film is within the subset of the DC Universe called the DC Extended Universe? More eyes and voices are always welcome. - Jack Sebastian ( talk) 17:10, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
I am very thankful and grateful that the article is accepted within the scope of the Comics Work Group months ago. However, I am having some trouble trying to rework the article to fit more within Wikipedia's "fictional universe" standards/requirements. And that is the reason why I wrote the article in a manner largely similar to the way the articles for both Marvel Universe and DC Universe were written. Any help or input from anyone would be greatly welcomed. LonerXL ( talk) 22:29, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
