Focus of the article - Series or character?
[edit]My understanding is that Ghost Rider 2099 - the character - doesn't warrant an article of his own, based on the project guidelines. See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Comics/editorial_guidelines for the full blurb on this (it's the same philosophy that's being applied to Ultimate characters etc). However, Ghost Rider 2099 - the 25 issue ongoing series - does justify its own article. See Ultimate Spider-Man for an example of something similar. --Mrph 08:12, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
Cover image
[edit]I've used the Mark Buckingham cover to #2, as I wanted an image from the original creative team. Out of the possible choices, this one wasn't just a headshot and was (from my point of view) the best one that also included the bike - #3 does also have the bike, but is an action shot with a slightly skewed view of the character's head. Are we generally happy with this, or are there suggested alternatives? --Mrph 20:52, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
Merge proposal
[edit]The character article is basically just a copy and paste of information from the original article. I thought about just going ahead and merging them without a discussion, but I thought having a discussion for future reference would help keep the article (and other articles with similar pointless divisions) from being created again.

- Support merger. All information related to the comic and characters should stay in this article unless the article becomes too large (~100kb, not an issue at present). NB: For future reference, I have no prejudice against future recreation of a separate biography if, and only if, the article either becomes too large or the information is used by several articles and a single biography would be more efficient than repeating the information (unlikely to be an issue for this comic unless Marvel revives the character or setting). - AdamBMorgan (talk) 16:00, 25 July 2011 (UTC)
- Support merger per above. --Crazy runner (talk) 05:39, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
