Hey, David!

I posted a photo for Jeremy Bastian's new comic book, which you removed. Why?

Hey, Davidscarter. Good to see a fellow GD fan. Hope you don't mind me taking the liberty of adding to your little wiki thingie here. Can you believe the current storylines? Man, every time I think Fred's outdone himself... he goes and outdoes himself even more.

Anyway, take it easy!

Yeah, I stay pretty current on it, it's my favorite book. I just ordered Gold Brick volume 4, signed, with the bonus OVA, woohoo ^_^ I also dropped an email to Fred telling him to take a peek at the page.

I've been rereading the Bricks and man, there's just SO MUCH info. I'm sort of halfassedly working on a Universalis Master Component list for the GD-verse too, just for fun. I have wanted to do a database on single-combat stats for all the characters for a while, a sort of "who can kick who's butt" chart based on all the one-on-one fights in the book, but every time I think about it seems pretty daunting. That and once I start reading, I get so caught up that it's hard to remember to glean the data I'm after, heh.

So the wiki is perfect for me cuz I can just drop little bits here and there as they occur to me, change and modify them on the fly, etc.

Anyway, thanks for starting it. Peace!

N.

Yeah, I do, and I was just thinking I should do that. Although they aren't as detailed as reading the actual issues cover to cover. But a lot of stuff like first appearances and general plot arcs are definitely easier to glean from Perfect Memories.

test edit

wow. thank gawd for wikiretconability, eh? we'd have had to hunt that lamebrain down and extract his vital organs, heh.

Getting the word out
Wow, you're carrying this thing a bit too much, any idea how we can get the word out about this thing? If a bunch of people did one or two entries (like me) this would be a lot more self-sufficent.

Thank you
http://www.wikia.com/images/7/7d/Thanks_sunflower.png Hi David,

I just want to say Thank You for your work on this project :-) Please just let me know, if you need any help.

Greetings --rieke 13:36, 19 October 2006 (UTC)


 * You're welcome. I've pretty much just been holding the line with shipping dates and schedules since most of our other frequent contributors faded away. It'd be nice to attract some more people to get this a little more robust... --Davidscarter 20:18, 20 October 2006 (UTC)


 * This sounds good! By the way, do you have an idea for an own Comic Book Series wiki logo perhaps? It could give the project an own "face", and it's really easy to change, see this page :-) --rieke 18:18, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

Hey There
I see you are a busy guy here on the Comics wiki. Drop me a line sometime if you care to chat... Great wiki! Cheers, --Jamie 02:38, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Hi
Hello Davidscarter.

Are you you the manager? Of being like that I need your help, want to open an edition of this page in Spanish but I am not a speaker of english.

With the Spanish I will be able to promote to a bigger community this page of cómics, be you interested in it? -- 16:52, 25 August 2007 (UTC)

Tempting...
I'm a bit tempted to start helping out here (even though I have more than enough to do on other wikis already :P). But first I wanted to hear your thoughts on some stuff I think should be done.
 * The whole "we recommend you use monobook" stuff is getting a bit old. I've been using Monaco since it first launched, and I don't have any problems. However, the current skin (standard monaco) of the wiki is a little... dull. If you want to, I could try to make a skin (if you want examples of what i've done before, see mpedia or sporewiki). I'm not the best skinmaker, but I try as best as I can.
 * The mainpage should get a redesign. Because of wikia's new ad policy, mainpages should have a set width right column, and a flexible width main (left) column (as you can see on sporewiki). In addition, the current page is waaaaay to long. Perhaps we could split it into several "tabs" like wowwiki has.
 * Article management: I do not know to what extent you already have this, but using "amboxes" for stubs, cleanup,wikifying and such.
 * Ask to merge with the (abandoned) webtoons wiki (at least the webcomics part). This is perhaps the most "interesting" part for this wiki's users. Oset&bull;c 20:23, 29 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Are you by chance using IRC? I'd like to hear your opinions on some things. Oset&bull;c 11:13, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks David.
Thanks David for your efforts. It is good to see this in a Wiki format. Is the upload of the covers for identification purposes considered fair use? I have been collecting for some time now. My current focus has been with Gen 13 (the current issues and from the previous publishers. Muireadhach 21:58, 20 May 2009 (UTC)

New wiki page
Hi David I am a little new to Wikia. I used the wikiskeleton page to post AT BAY PRESS's new comic book ST. AUGUSTINE but realized I may have made a big booboo buy overwriting the wiki skeleton. My apologies for any trouble I've caused. I thought the skeleton was a template for setting up a new page. Is there anyway you could fix this and still keep the newly created page for the comic. Thanks and sorry again

Hi, I'm not too sure how the layouts go on here? I'm trying though! Any help would be appreciated. TheBrimCave 18:05, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

Wiki revamping
Hi Davidscarter! My name is Bob and I am a staff member at Wikia. We really like what you have going here at Comic Book Series Wiki, and want to make it even better! We were wondering if you would mind if we went in and added some new features like a skin, wordmark, and better site navigation. Of course, your oppinions will count 100% of the way, and you are more than welcome to help out! After we're done, we plan on highlighting the wiki! That will drive more people to your wiki, and help build up the community! Let me know what your thoughts are on the matter! Soldierscuzzy 19:45, October 17, 2011 (UTC)
 * I was thinking about a skin of comic book covers or something similar. If you have any ideas, let me know! It is your wiki after all. A wordmark is the thing that says "Comic Book Series Wiki." You'll notice some wikis have custom wordmarks, and I wanted to make one for you. A way we were thinking to restructure the navigation would be something sorted by Publisher or Genre as opposed to the massive list on the home page right now. I was also going to spruce up the main page with more pictures, a live news feed, and maybe a poll. Soldierscuzzy 22:52, October 17, 2011 (UTC)
