You are recalling correctly, and I still don't agree with it. Because they're not the ones going back and looking at the god-awful mess that is left when people don't do it properly, inconsistently, or incorrectly. I've already point out how it is a redundant practice.

There certainly haven't been any complaints about the lack of clarity as to who these characters are since and I've been doing it consistently since I started writing summaries for every issue of Fantastic Four over a year ago and people are not going back adding them again.

If it was such an important and massive issue, people would be going back and adding them again. I'm not seeing that in the alerts whenever someone updates a comic book summary that I've previously edited. Most times they're adding a useless piece of trivia that is irrelevant to the story. Nobody is confused about which version of Mister Fantastic or the Hulk I am talking about because, as I've point out countless times, if they're that interested, they click on the link.

But again, this is an issue where people are making a big deal out of something that is a non-issue around here. Why do something practical and easier to maintain when we can all agree upon doing something in the most complicated way possible and never go back and ensure everything is being done consistently.

I don't know if you've noticed or not, the quality control around here is greatly lacking so any means of eliminating trivial issues so we don't have to constantly go back and edit things over and over again, since we don't have the manpower to focus on that.

Instead of focusing on the real problems (rewriting pages when plagerism has been found, incomplete pages, lack of references, missing issue summaries) the rest are satisfied with dicking around with categories than investing time in making sure we have accurate and complete information.

When Wikia started Fandom last year we were ranking as the number one Wiki. In just over that time we've lagged back down to position five. Part of that is because a lot of the information we have on here is inconsistent, incorrect, or non-existent. Yet we're spending countless man hours splitting hairs on such trivial matters as parenthesis and adding more blank pages every week a new comic book comes out.
