Discussion on Edits by 64.236.243.16

To whom it may concern (including IP address 64.236.243.16, whose participation in this discussion given that his edits are the point of this discussion),

This is a discussion dedicated to correcting what someone who may have a conflict of interest in editing have said are errors about the show on this article while still following Wikipedian policies and guidelines. 64.236.243.16, self-reportedly Greg Weisman, has been editing this article with the intention of correcting errors. However, because is drawing on personal knowledge without citing any verifiable, reliable sources, which is not allowed on Wikipedia, I have reverted these good-faith edits. While professional expertise is always welcomed on Wikipedia and citing oneself is allowed, the sources cited by the professional must be verifiable. I recommend that Greg Weisman either:

a) (IMHO, the better one) alerts the sources we have cited (i.e. reliable online news organizations) that the information they have is incorrect, thus allowing us to correct the errors while being able to cite verifiable/reliable sources
b) (more iffy* solution) edits his own website (i.e. Ask Greg) to clear up/correct errors he sees on the internet

  • Solution #b is considered a little more iffy, because the usage of self-published sources is generally not acceptable, with the exception that "the self-published material produced by an established expert on the topic of the article whose work in the relevant field has previously been published by reliable third-party publications," which, I think, Ask Greg could qualify, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Ask Greg is a section whose words are penned by Weisman on a third-party site, which seems to similar to how an expert has his own column on a newspaper. —MirlenTalk 06:22, 24 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am also open to alternative proposals (as there is definitely a precedent for this sort of issue) suggested by other editors, hence this discussion. —MirlenTalk 01:57, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have restored the verifiable or grammatical edits by 64.236.243.16. For convenience, I have listed out the restored edits: Artemis's age, which is indeed 15 according to the official podcast (verified); per season --> throughout each season (grammar-related edit noted); and Jackson Hyde's background specifically originating from Brightest Day as stated in official DCU blog (verified). Other edits still remain unrestored, since they need to be cited by verifiable, reliable sources w/o drawing on personal knowledge from a shared IP address. —MirlenTalk 03:03, 3 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Confusing

The sentence saying "Superboy, whose origins will be faithful to that of his comic book counterpart while the character in the show will be a new take by the producers" How can it be both faithful to his comic counterpart but be a new take?68.196.93.32 (talk) 00:44, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Seems very clear to me. The origin story is faithful to the comics, but the character's personality is a new take. 75.76.213.106 (talk) 21:18, 27 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Young Justice Wiki

There has yet to be a wiki for this program, there's a wealth of articles that could be done even from the first two episodes. -- Anythingspossibleforapossible (talk) 16:50, 28 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
