| Mike Nielsen | seq 11 and 13: Are they really titled "untitled" or do they just have no title? If they have no title you can either check the "unofficial title" box or you can just leave the title field blank. | 2010-12-21 16:57:28 | Under Review | Editing | |
| Steven Samuels | Luckily I had that very issue nearby and not buried somewhere.. ;) No titles to them, but they do have dialogue. Just used the first sentence from each. The guy who indexed most of this series sure had a lot of typos. The most annoying and numerous ones have been for artist initials. He would do things like "S.Clay Wilson" rather than the proper way- "S. Clay Wilson." I've cleaned up quite a bit of this from him. |

| Mike Nielsen | You will find that in a lot of old indexes. Heck, I run across some of my oldest indexes once in awhile and just cringe at what I see. :) | 2010-12-22 14:19:34 | Under Review | Approved |
