Hey, what's up doc?
Hey man, good to hear from you again. I was thinking about templates. It would be nice to have the character templates say the "Homeworld" rather than "Home planet," simply due to the fact that not everyone lives on planets, as an example, the Deimosians live on the moon of Deimos, so that wouldn't work for them, and then there's that race that lives on the Sun in Lex Luthor Strikes Back. I think it'd be better if it was homeworld, since that could refer to planets, moons, asteroids and anything else. And yeah, I'm gonna definitely get Batman: Year One...didn't realize it was creeping up so quickly though, thanks for the reminder.

Sure thing
Sure thing, I that makes sense. I actually just found those pics from the episode and liked them so I thought I should use them. The thing is, we had the same picture of a the frozen Statue of Liberty for both the New York Harbor page and the Liberty Island page, and it just kind of bothered me, because I don't like to see the same image in other pages, you know what I mean? So anyway, I don't know for sure if there's any images from the Super Friends that would work for those pages or not, but I certainly will put them on there if I find them. I know New York City has been shown and referenced on a number of occasions in the show but I don't know if there are images of that crystal clarity or not. But I'll keep it in mind. The Manhattan page also has a pic from Star Master and the Solar Mirror. I thought we should have a different image than the image shown on the Manhattan Island page.

By the way, I just experienced my first earthquake. Not what I would have expected. I noticed things shaking and thought it must have been a jet flying over the building I work in, but then not long later this lady comes up to me and tells me there was an earthquake. Next thing you know the security lady is asking me what the procedure is when there's an earthquake. I told her I have no idea, as I had never been in one before. Anyway, thought that was kind of interesting.

Oh, and Batman: Year One was pretty cool. I never actually read that comic mini-series but the movie was good. I'd rate it up there with Batman: Under the Red Hood or whatever that other Batman animated film was called. It was pretty freaking awesome. I also though the art in the movie was really good...was it just me or was it better than Batman: The Animated Series. It was one of my favorite shows, but ever since that shows the art in the more realistic cartoons started to look less realistic. There's the square jaws and WAY out of proportion necks and chests and hips and stuff. Bruce Timm's style is simplistic, but it kind of got sloppy when Superman came out. Truth is I miss the art in the cartoons from '80s and early '90s cartoons. If they made a series or some movies with the art style of The Super Powers Team: Galactic Guardians or Superman, with the better animation that exists today, that would blow my mind. Because the character designs in cartoons these days is just very cartoony.

Take Batman: The Brave and the Bold....great cartoon, not so great art. I don't know, it's kind of hard to use that as an example since it's such a light-hearted and comedic take on Batman, even more so then most of the Super Friends series was, but you know, I mean there's other cartoons out there like Ben 10 and stuff that are pretty cool in concept but they don't look photo-realistic. And now there making computer animated stuff. Green Lantern and the next Batman series are gonna be computer animated. God!! I don't like that....I'll watch 'em...but I don't know if I'll like them.

By the way, I guess the next Star Trek film is coming along pretty well, and will likely be out by 2013. The Man of Steel will be out that summer too. That looks cool. "Superman Returns" was a big disappointment for me, so hopefully this will be better. Oh, if you saw it, what'd you think of Green Lantern?

Hey there, what's up
I just sent you an e-mail. --Noah Tall 23:38, January 30, 2012 (UTC)

Looks cool
When I log in it looks like it did before though...but at least it doesn't look like it did when they remodeled the place.

--Noah Tall 19:52, April 28, 2012 (UTC)

Good job man
Thanks for archiving my talk page. Yeah, I'm almost positive that the fact that the Hall of Justice was in Gotham was established in the first issue. Also, if you look in the DC Database, it sites issue #11 as an issue that establishes it. Even during Season 1, it is heavily implied that it's Gotham, even though it doesn't directly say it. But according to the DC Database, the Hall was originally located in Gotham, as established in issue number 11. That's the issue with the Kingslayer, and honestly I haven't read it in years, and I don't think that I have it in my comic book collection (I have waaayyy too many comics) but I'm pretty sure that whoever made the Hall of Justice (Super Friends) page over at DC Database wouldn't have put that if it wasn't firmly established. I also have always remembered it as being in Gotham for such a long time. Not saying my memory is anything reliable but you know...

I haven't seen Young Justice since like episode 13 or so...good show, but I actually don't have a digital converter so I can't watch TV. I haven't had cable TV in years. My sister and brother-in-law have TV, but not cable...they do have Netflix though. And so does my mother. So every once in a while I will watch something on Netflix when I'm at once of there houses. I've been watching Bravestarr and Star Blazers. Good cartoons, ever seen them?

I also have watched some films I hadn't seen in years...like Double Dragon and The Shadow. Oh yeah, and they have both Godzilla cartoons on there. And almost all of the Marvel cartoons. I'm sure I can probably find a place online to watch Young Justice but I haven't got around to it yet. I haven't seen Green Lantern at all. I've watched some of the DC Nation shorts with Animal Man and then the reality segments where they test out Green Arrows boxing glove arrow and Batman's batarang. All those are on YouTube.

Honestly I liked Young Justice but I'm not sure about Green Lantern, for one thing I don't like the Red Lanterns, who seem to be the primary antagonists and another thing---I'm so freaking SICK OF COMPUTER ANIMATION!! Young Justice is cool because the plot's are great, the characters are interesting AND....it's traditional animation which I like. But I have heard Green Lantern is a good show so I will definitely see it eventually, probably when it comes to DVD.

--Noah Tall 22:56, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Oh, almost forgot
I'm gonna have to be honest with you, I don't know what you mean when you say go to your talk page...I'm not really good with this technical stuff. I don't really mind the way the wiki looks for me. It looks so much better than it did when it first changed. But I only see Superman and Batman off to the side when I'm logged out. And it still underlines misspelled words for me.

--Noah Tall 23:00, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Hmmm...interesting
This is what mine looks like.

--Noah Tall 23:55, April 29, 2012 (UTC)

Superman Fan, how's it going?
Hey, what's up? I just wanted to see if you liked what I did with this page: Production and animation errors.

I didn't want to continue with it until I got your input on it, since after all it was your idea, at least I seem to remember you saying something about making a page about misspelled words and stuff like that. Anyway, let me know what you think of it. I'll work on other things in the meantime.

--Noah Tall (talk) 12:41, July 13, 2012 (UTC)

Thanks
Thanks for the input. I thought you were the administrator. --Noah Tall (talk) 17:09, July 18, 2012 (UTC)

Tarzan
A new user just made an edit about Tarzan, I had it removed because it was based upon the DC Comics story, however I had thought about seeing what you thought of using it here, since it was part of The Batman/Tarzan Adventure Hour from Filmation. I think it would fit well.

Nevertheless I removed it because it was incorrectly inserted and it had nothing to do with Earth-1A.

You can check out the conversation below:

The Dark Knight Rises
I saw The Dark Knight Rises on last night. Man, I can't tell you how awesome that film was. You see it? If you did, I hope you weren't in Aurora, Colorado. You here about the nutcase that shot all those people in that theater?

--Noah Tall (talk) 21:35, July 20, 2012 (UTC)

Hey, been missing you...
Hey, long time no see. By any chance do you know whatever happened to the video upload page?

--Noah Tall (talk) 23:05, September 22, 2012 (UTC)

Nope, not me
Nope I wasn't the one who did the SF comics.

--Noah Tall (talk) 21:25, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

Yo hey
Hey man, I haven't heard from you in forever. I was just thinking about you yesterday. Thanks for the compliment. --Noah Tall (talk) 13:56, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Just curious, what'd you like the best?--Noah Tall (talk) 14:03, September 1, 2013 (UTC)

Holy crap Batman! I thought you had died!!
Glad to see you're still with us...by us I mean me.

I'm not sure exactly what you're referring to by beyond the Earth-1A universe. A lot of the pages that have been made have been by vandals and I can't delete the pages. We have pages like the Falcone Family, which obviously doesn't belong here, and most of the pages like that don't even have material on them. Actually I just hate it when a page has no content.

And as for those Super Amigos comics you showed me, I just used those because they carry the "Super Friends" name. They are technically Portuguese reprints of DC Comics set in the mainstream DC Universe, but I just figured we should use them since they carry the name. The DC Super Friends is technically not of the Super Friends Earth either but it does have Super Friends name.

Just to name a few, characters such as Ugash, Sonar, Ra's al Ghul, Bane, Ch'p, Unknown Soldier, Grim Reaper and Shaggy Man have been either shown in a Super Friends/Super Amigos/Super Powers/DC Super Friends comic, they had their own action figure in one of the toylines, they appeared in some other tie-in product, or they were referenced at some point.

I thought you had given up, so I just decided to take it upon myself with certain things like the Latin American comics. I thought, why not? They have the name, so I just went for it. And I remember we had decided to use the comics, such as any comic that was referenced in the Super Friends comic book, such as the Justice League series. Obviously not the entire series, but just the issues referenced. But the realization is that at times comics that are referenced are "part two" of certain stories, and so to me it's only logical to include part one as well, and if there's more parts to the story, then those issues as well.

Am I going beyond Earth-1A by doing this? Maybe, but even the Doctor Who wiki has pages for the comics, audio dramas etc., which very often times contradict the television series. Plus, on the Super Friends side of things, there's no major if any contradictions with the comics vs. cartoon...even in the comics that might not be considered canon. Memory Alpha is strict about what they view canon, but that's just about the only one. But sure, it's all conjecture...I'm not gonna deny that, I just don't really think it's too big of a deal since the show is long over now anyway, and it's pretty certain there will never be any new material anyway. The thing about Doctor Who is that there is still new material, nevertheless, they still use other media such as books and comics on the Tardis Wiki.

Let me know what you think though. I'm not gonna deny it though, it would be massively upsetting to me if we have to delete that stuff. Countless hours went into a lot of it, and I still had more plans for building. I had even added to the SuperFriends: Manual of Style to explain what I felt should be canon. And actually, I even think that the Batman series should be canon as well, especially because it has Adam West and Burt Ward and I now have the complete series on Blu-Ray.

But anyway, whatever we do, we have a bunch of pages with no content that have been made, such as Falcone Family, Harvey Bullock and others. --Noah Tall (talk) 21:09, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

You are right about the templates, I had forgotten on several occasions, and yes I should mark them. As for too many pages, what makes you say we have too many pages? Memory Alpha and Tardis Data Core have like 40,000 articles. The Super Friends Universe is waaay bigger than Smallville, and a little bigger than DCAU. But even then, the DCAU is still under construction, just like most wikis.--Noah Tall (talk) 21:21, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Seasons
I'm the one who changed the seasons as well. They were not correct, Season 5 is the 1980 Shorts and Season 6 is the 1981 Shorts.

There are nine total seasons of Super Friends. You can look here. Technically on this wiki, because of The Best of the Super Friends, we have Ten seasons listed. But that was not actually new material and not actually season 7, I named it as such so that we could connect all series, but in any case, having Season 5 and 6 be the last two seasons makes no senses. --Noah Tall (talk) 21:31, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Okie Doke
Yeah, I follow, I knew there would be issues on other pages that were intended to be linked to said season, but I figured I'd get around to fixing them eventually.

Yes, quality is important, and I know I kind of suck at it. It's mainly because I want to put so much on here, without taking enough time. I'll try and slow down and focus more on fixing the pages we already have and deleting the ones we don't need.

--Noah Tall (talk) 21:58, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Right on...and it is good to have you back bro.

--Noah Tall (talk) 22:06, November 28, 2014 (UTC)

Deleting articles
The only thing I see there that really might need to be deleted is kill. It's just a redirect page for death. The other pages are actual articles. Gorilla? That page shows you a list of all the gorillas in the SF Universe. Those are named characters. Plus gorillas are apes so why would we delete that?

Also, I created the kill page just for simplicity purposes, and you'll find that deleting it will create dead links everywhere. Forests have been referenced in dialogue and shown on screen. There are even named forests, Amazon Rainforest etc. There are links to those in the article. (In fact, that image in the forest article is from an episode where the narrator actually says "the forests."

If you could take a look at some of these pages, and you'll see what I'm trying to accomplish, without just looking at the name. If you look at the articles, such as automobile, wild-goose chase, Old West, traffic, crime...just to name a few, articles like that, which may seem worthless to you, are actually written from the perspective of the Super Friends universe. For example, if you go to the automobile page an click on car, you'll see the Jokermobile, Batmobile and Riddlermobile listed there. Wild-goose chases are used a ton of times in Super Friends, and each instance is listed there, at least up to the point I've got to. I'm really only editing up to the episode The Ultra Beam, I'm still making my way through the series, and I'm not totally done with the ones before it, I still need the mistakes articles and casting information and basic stuff like that but most of the story stuff is finished.

There are a lot of pages that need work, and some of them I still haven't figured out the greatest way to deal with them. But I think deleting every page that isn't a proper noun seems a bit biased. I feel that if it's in the Super Friends universe, why shouldn't there be a page for it? Sure, every page should be made with the Super Friends in mind, and you might notice, that on certain pages about real world stuff referenced in Super Friends, I don't give too much details about it, (at least I haven't lately) just what pertains the show. For example, if you look at the Ice Age and Deep-sea diving gear pages. Very little details is given about the real world ice age, mainly just how it was referenced in the show. Also, the deep-sea diving gear page was so named because it's what it was referred to in the episode by dialogue. But you'll notice the Wikipedia article in the External Link is called "Standard diving dress." I didn't use that name, because it wasn't used in the episode.

I do have a few pages that I need to polish, such as the Gettysburg Address page, which really doesn't say much in relation to the Super Friends series or as you say to paraphrase, "doesn't contribute to the overall goal of this wiki." But I definitely don't think it should be deleted. Just polished or streamlined or whatever. In fact I think I'll take care of the Gettysburg Address page right now. A lot of the pages you may not like, I'm actually pretty proud of. Some of them really need work, not denying, and yes, they should have been treated well in the first place, but I still don't think they should perish. Earthling is another page I think is essential. What's so worthless about them? --Noah Tall (talk) 17:56, November 29, 2014 (UTC)
