Is "franchise" the right word for this? Should we set up the whole usual schtick for a full-blown franchise? (Franchise page, comics page, toyline page, etc.)
I'm asking not only 'cause I'm anal about this stuff, but also 'cause it remains difficult to find your way around some of the convention- and club-based pages. -- Repowers 17:38, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- Practically every story under a Timelines banner belongs to a different franchise/continuity from the next, so any "franchise" page should identify just where said Timelines events are supposed to be taking place. (This is going to be a problem with Descent Into Evil and, to a lesser extent, Razor's Edge, because those take place in a wherewhen we don't have have an actual name for.) I suspect a single page to handle all of the aspects of Timelines is probably sufficient, since many of the individual stories will presumably appear in their relevant franchises as well. -LV 18:14, 28 December 2007 (UTC)
- So should mentions of it be italicized, put in quotes, or left as-is?--Apcog 04:40, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Order of Publication[]
GAH. Okay, so, waitaminute. Before I screw this up any more...
The order of publication should be -- and please correct me if I've got this wrong, 'cause I keep missing things:
- Descent into Evil
- Intimidation Game
- Dawn of Future's Past
- Dark Heart of Sandokan (Feb. 07)
- Games of Deception (BC 07 - end of June 07)
- Theft of the Golden Disk (BC 07)
- The Razor's Edge (July 07)
- The New World (end of July 07)
- Finale Part II (Nov 07)
- Cheap Shots
As I've noted elsewhere, I think we ought to stick to the order of publication for the navigation box sequence, much as we do for the UK comics and, well, pretty much everything else. Note boxes at the beginning and end of text summaries can then link chronologically related stories together. -- Repowers 16:27, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
- ...Augh! Finale II is *also* under the Timelines banner! But Finale I isn't. Man, this whole thing is screwy. -- Repowers 23:17, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
