It's remarkable how certain kinds of damaged people come to Wikipedia to try to fix what's wrong with them. If editing Wikipedia and being angry are routinely happening at the same time... you have a problem (and it probably isn't Wikipedia). If you've come to my page and are wondering if I'm talking about you... that's a hint. But it's actually an observation about ''several'' people I've seen warring with others (including me) on Wikipedia lately, so maybe it ''isn't'' about you in particular. And yes, I ''do'' realize that this might also describe ''me''... and that realization is an important part of the solution. Best of luck to you.
When I notice that someone of notability in (or adjacent to) the comics community has died, I try to make sure there's a respectable article about them. If there isn't an article at all, I at least create a stub, and if there's one that's not up to standards, I try to fix that. Some of those I've worked on to some degree are:

I'm Jason A. Quest. I'm a professional writer and an illustrator, and I play with technology.

I am the creator of Neverpedia.com, a web site about Peter Pan, J. M. Barrie, and related subjects. Much of the "foundation" information on which the site is built is gratefully derived from Wikipedia.

My fault

[edit]

I created the initial versions of the following articles. A few were painfully translated from other-language Wikipedias, so I should only get credit for some tenacity and some facility with language. Some of them probably would've been created eventually without me, and some of them now consist mostly of other editors' work, but at least I got the ball rolling. Others were neglected subjects, things that deserve to be documented and remembered, and (for better or worse) putting the info in Wikipedia is probably the best way of ensuring that. A few are about people I know (on some personal level); I officially shouldn't work on articles like that, but I handled them with the experience of a decade of NPOV practice, so I stand by them. I've refrained from starting one about me. :)

Wikiproject Queer Comix

[edit]

I've noticed some missing/deficient articles about LGBTQ cartoonists and related topics, so I'm slowly working on addressing that.

Wikiproject Dead Cartoonists

[edit]

When I notice that someone of notability in (or adjacent to) the comics community has died, I try to make sure there's a respectable article about them. If there isn't an article at all, I at least create a stub, and if there's one that's not up to standards, I try to fix that. Some of those I've worked on to some degree are:
