The real Charles Peace edit
This should probably be merged with Charles Peace or retitled 'The Astounding Adventures of Charlie Peace' to reflect the title of the comic strip. I have copied a precis of this entry to Charles Peace. Sfgreenwood 14:11, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
- I wouldn't call it The Astounding Adventures of Charlie Peace as the character hasn't just appeared in that strip - he's also in Albion. I'm not sure about merging it, either - should a real criminal share an article with a fictional character he inspired? I think this article really needs to stay, but should be fleshed out to follow the WP:CMC/X layout, covering publication history and the like. If we need to disambiguate the two, moving this to Charlie Peace (comics) might be an option, possibly keeping Charlie Peace as a disambiguation page? --Mrph 21:44, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
- I'd go with Charlie Peace (comics) for now at least, since the Charles Peace article is way more a magazine feature than it is an encyclopedia article, with no footnotes, very few wikilinks, an essayish tone, and a remark under References that it copied wholesale some public-domain text, rather than distilling the encyclopedic points. That article needs enough work on its own. It mentions the comic strip in a couple of sentences, which is fine -- Charlie Peace (comics) can describe the comic strip at article-length. Just my two cents. Or two shillings, as the may be. Ha'pennies? --Tenebrae 04:29, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
- I think the "Charlie Peace" that appeared in Albion was just a reference to this character, but that's beside the point. I agree that this article should be retitled to The Astounding Adventures of Charlie Peace, as that was the name of the strip. I added a comic strip infobox, but couldn't really find much info to expand the article.Konczewski 02:07, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
