So, no problem. 2) I only used the original Loki OHOTMU bio as a template to alter and gradually update. The mythological Loki has bio details and nuances that don't exist in the Marvel Universe. 3) I've never placed info from my site on the Marvel Database. Seeing as it's two different versions of one character, the mythological and the fictional, it's kind of a waste of time. Whenever I have spotted info lifted from my site, I've always brought it up to editors to take care. It's unclear what you're talking about, as you've never actually edited the Loki Laufeyson (Kid Loki) (Earth-616) article, and because of that I'm not saying this is what was done there, particularly since I don't have access to that handbook, but would be remiss if I didn't point out that plagiarizing a handbook is still plagiarism. Everything added to this site must be in one's own words, not copied from any other source regardless of what that source may be.

Regardless, there's no question the Kid Loki article is a complete mess. There's evidence on the talk page that at least part of the article was stolen from Angelfire; meanwhile, there's virtually zero citation for any of the article's text, heavily implying that whomever wrote it didn't use individual comics to create the content in a manner which could actually be peer reviewed for accuracy.
