 "Comprehensive but not definitive"  What is the useful distinction? [[User:Boblipton|Boblipton]] 00:45, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
+:What indeed.   These lists of appearance pages piss me off so I don't spend much time here, precisely for this reason.  They should be done automatically, through the use of categories, rather than being a managed list.  The message shouldn't appear at all, as ''nothing'' on a wiki is ever truly "definitive" anyway.  No need for ''only'' these appearance lists to bear such a message — especially since, as you rightly point out, there's no useful distinction between ''comprehensive'' and ''definitive''.  I think the person who wrote that was probably meaning to say, "comprehensive but not complete".  But, as I said, ''no'' message like this should adorn these appearance list pages.  {{user:CzechOut/Sig}}{{User:CzechOut/TimeFormat}}'''01:16:23 Sat&nbsp;'''06 Aug 2011&nbsp;</span>
+Thanks, Czechout.  I'll remove it.[[User:Boblipton|Boblipton]] 01:20, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
+::It was one of those notes that was on many list of pages early on in this wiki's life, one of many things that was never removed.
+::I think it was just to say 'we're still building this page, don't complain if story X isn't here'. --[[User:Tangerineduel|Tangerineduel]] / '''[[User talk:Tangerineduel|talk]]''' 15:08, August 6, 2011 (UTC)
