"Comic" or "Comics"?[edit]

Comic Arts Conference redirects here to ComicS Arts Conference, but despite the introductory lines, the main website for the Conference remains singular, even as many secondary sources pluralise it. Can someone arbitrate and/or swap the redirection and page around, please? ntnon (talk) 19:36, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Both are correct -- which the article actually addresses a little bit. It's a quirk of the conference that it's Comics plural when one of the organizers is in charge and Comic singular when the other organizer is in charge. The one with the website says Comic. However, at the conference and in the Comic-Con materials, they say Comics. I've asked the organizers personally, and they say both are right. They like the quirkiness of this. The one who preferred the plural always uses the plural. The organizer who preferred the singular goes back and forth, therefore there's greater consistency between them for calling it Comics. Just look at last year's call for papers[1] which calls it one thing in the headline but the other in the opening sentence. You've been editing things on CAC's co-founder Peter Coogan. Just ask him. He prefers Comics Arts Conference, plural, and has specific reasons as to why. Doczilla (talk) 21:57, 26 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough! Thanks for that clarification, then - didn't fully realise that it was Dr Coogan and Mr Duncan themselves who perpetuated the use of both... Appreciated. ntnon (talk) 18:50, 27 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Doczilla is exactly correct. When I am the primary, it's the Comics Arts Conference (I follow McCloud, basically). But when Randy Duncan is the primary, it's the Comic Arts Conference. We don't agree on this, so we agree to disagree. And that's Dr. Duncan. Peter Coogan —Preceding unsigned comment added by Petercoogan (talk • contribs) 04:12, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Expansion[edit]

I've cut out the part User:Doczilla had issues with, plus the "some years" comment, since it's surely per person not year. Otherwise, I've attempted to fix anything that was stylistically untoward, and hope that it is better now. Hopefully there'll be no need this time(!), but if so, please talk rather than simply re-reverting. Thanks. :o) ntnon (talk) 19:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

==B class== Article has important information on the topic, more than described by Start class, and may qualify for a higher rating, but as a major contributor to the article, I don't feel it's appropriate for me to be the one to give it a higher rating.
