Removed deletion tag

[edit]

Oooook. Got off my butt and finally added some things I've been working on for the article, to keep it from being deleted. Still needs work but its better then nothing. Sadly Warren's deviantArt page is full of info on his works (not just pics) but Wikipedia doesn't like primary sources, oh well. His Myspace page seems abandoned so I will not mourn its loss. If anyone has information about his life outside of comics feel free to add it, I have none or it would already be on there. While he may not be Stan Lee he is notable and has been working in comics longer then most people (god almost 20 years? I've been reading his stuff since grade school!) to bad the article now is about as best as I can do for him, it could definitely use a going over by someone that knows how to write real bios.

Added the info box and re-added a link to his deviantART page because it seems to be his only personal online activity and its got loads of info and art direct from the source.Lando242 02:48, 4 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Dpw-supes.gif

[edit]

Image:Dpw-supes.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Corporal vessel internment facility lawn care

[edit]

Took me a bit of pondering to work out what "corporal vessel internment facility lawn care" meant but a jokey euphemism isn't exactly the kind of clarity (or tone) for an encyclopaedia. So what does this translate to: graveyard groundskeeper? cemetery grasscutter? Is it even true as it isn't sourced? (Emperor (talk) 00:16, 17 February 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Sorry, that was me. I think I put that in when I was first starting this article... 5 years ago is it now? I thought the wording fit into his style of humor so I threw it in there and no one has messed with it after this long so I figured no one minded. So, yeah, basically I gathered that he mowed lawns at a cemetery before going to art college. I originally based this article on a bio site and a few online interviews that were floating around at the time. Needless to say he wasn't terribly well know back then so concrete information was slim. I think hes given more interviews these last few years since Empowered came out then in the first 20 years of his career. I've gone over google looking for my original source but all I can find is a blurb about it here. I'm almost certain it was covered on a site called the "Adam Warren Shrine" but they shut down about 2 years ago and the Internet Archive is barfing when I try to look up the address (http://www.gaiateam.dsl.pipex.com/ if you'd like to try searching the archive for it, maybe it will work for you). Sad really, it was a great place to see some of his art and read information about him back in the day. Its funny, when I first started this article I had heaps of trouble just getting his DeviantArt page listed and couldn't for the life of me keep people from deleting his MySpace as an "unencyclopedic reference". Now they have a tag for it? Oh the irony. Anyway, if you think the wording should be change or it should be removed completely feel free to work it over.

Added a bibliography and a template

[edit]

I made a template and bibliography page for his works. The template only covers his major stuff but the bibliography should be very comprehensive, so if anything is missing please improve it. Lando242 (talk) 14:30, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The "Empowered" link in the lead re-directs to the article on "empowerment", not "Empowered (comics)". I'd be bold, but have no idea how to change this (yet). P.S. this is also the case in the last paragraph under "career". 2A02:A210:A001:A380:8D42:54BE:7076:E786 (talk) 16:13, 15 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
