Hiya - just wanted to say that, yeah, ampersands (&) cause a lot of problems on this wiki. That's why we've got a page called Rock and Roll instead of "Rock & Roll". Irritating, but unavoidable. -- Supermorff 11:25, 13 December 2010 (CST)

Makes sense. Surprisingly, that page didn't register in my head when I was doing a quick search through the wiki trying to see if any other page had an '&' without trouble . . . I only started thinking that's what the trouble was when I tried to simply MOVE the page over only to find it titled "Art" and when looking at the page URL (whenever it randomly went to the right page) and seeing everything past the ampersand became essentially dingbats (though "Lois" could be spotted at the end of the mess, lol). Just another crash course in wiki code, no? ;) --Pheon 11:48, 13 December 2010 (CST)

Wow, you are doing fantastic work adding sources for CIT info! -- Supermorff 05:19, 19 December 2010 (CST)

Thanks, but its no big -- I just happen to have a little more time these days to be of some actual use here and I just figured that CIT facts gotta come from somewhere d: (though I'm pondering how we'll reference CIT revealed at Gatherings that either don't have a corresponding AskGreg question or simply haven't been submitted through a ConJournal . . . I don't think it'll be THAT frequent an issue, but its possible, you know?) --Pheon 16:39, 19 December 2010 (CST)
Definitely possible. The recent tidbit about Marina Sirtis voicing Emily Osborn - while not a Gargoyles fact - only comes from a conversation GregX had with GregW. But yeah, hopefully not too common. -- Supermorff 02:38, 20 December 2010 (CST)

Hey Phoen, when you get a chance, and if you like, shoot me an email. Got a couple questions. ewoks11@hotmail.com -- Matt (talk) 12:55, 27 July 2023 (PDT)


I guess unnecessary, just that...

Even if say something like Bambi can get an article due to a reference (Which is cool), I just like to add as much crossover info as possible when including articles on other properties when possible. The smaller content on Beauty and the Beast is simply due to it not having say an animated series, albeit they did try one with and like Team Atlantis it just became a DTV.

But smaller content is not, in and of itself, a bad thing. The priority for this wiki is Gargoyles canon, followed by the canon-in-training we have curated over the years, and then all-other-things officially related to the property (apocrypha, merchandise, etc). Even our favorite Greg Weisman shows (that aren't Gargoyles) remain small pages because the focus is their relation to Gargoyles.
I also enjoy documenting the easter eggs and connections from other properties on this wiki, but I do think how they tie into the canon series and current canon comics is the better way to go about it. So the shared Marvel staff from the Marvel Gargoyles comics and the other Disney comics from the 90s is fun to mention, but I think they fit better on the Marvel Comics page, because that staff, far as I can tell, never worked on the canon material. I can also see those details on their individual crew pages, but I'm ok with waiting to hear from other editors before making a shift there. --Pheon (talk) 14:13, 1 October 2023 (PDT)

If you don't mind me asking

Is there a reason to say link to Trio as well Trio's as opposed to Trio's? Antiyonder (talk) 16:11, 8 October 2024 (PDT)

Consistency, mostly. For whatever reason, the code doesn't seem to adopt the possessive like it does with plurals (i.e., Gargoyles). --Pheon (talk) 16:46, 8 October 2024 (PDT)
