why we would want to list it that way for every character that just happens to be highly intelligent; show me a skill, not a trait. Also, we have no source for this information. If it was from some chart or graph then those are basically useless, and something like Marvel.com (aka the Marvel Wiki) then that is not a valid source either. Show me something from the comics, where it is explicitly stated that he is a genius. In fact, if it says something like "scientific genius" or "genius inventor" describing him in a comic, then I would rather see that in an infobox because it really tells me something about him.
407:
importance here is that this is a rarity for the character in question, and being a rarity, it has far more importance than the exact same thing would for Spider-Man. This should cover the "Well-written" idea strictly speaking about NPOV (again, "well-written" is not a matter of opinion, it's a matter of whether or not the author has a good enough grasp of syntax, grammar etc. to write well) although the sentence as a whole would probably have been better served actually stating why TSL is unique and why it's important in this context while a similar thing for a mainstream character wouldn't be important at all. --

having a link to something that for other characters is a dime a dozen (long epic fanfics) but for this one, is something special. You wouldn't have fanfiction mentioned about more mainstream characters because there's simply too much of it; it would take up too much space before you even get to the topic of who decides quality.

out
Shocker as a second-rate villain who doesn't get much screen time. All of this added up suggests that it's perfectly logical to have that reference to TSL. It's saying "Look, fans of this thing that's popular but not used all that often in canon, here's something you can look at that has to do with what interests you."
889:, but he gave me no response at all, and in fact continued to edit war. I should have been the bigger man and stopped, so I am sorry. The issue was that he kept editing the TV characters section to say that "Shocker appeared in this series", when that was simply not true. The truth is that the character

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on
400:
It's pretty obvious what makes good fanfiction and what doesn't when you use a little common sense; good characterization, spelling, grammar, punctuation, plot. Same as with a published work. TSL isn't perfect, and I even said that flat out on its page, but no one would look at it objectively and not
388:
I would say the logical solution is for pages with more mainstream characters to point to fanfiction archives where anyone interested in fanfiction can frolic in the sea of material (or perhaps even have separate pages with lists of well known fanfiction,) and pages for little characters should point
376:
On the point of it setting a dangerous precedent: How? Thing is, Spider-Man and Harry Potter already have a metric ton (if not more) of fanfiction written about them. You don't need to read their Wiki pages to know that Spider-Man and Harry Potter have lots of fan material; if you check ff.net, there
420:
Thing is though that there would be absolutely no other valid reason not to link to fanfics on more obscure characters (and from there on, the bigger characters), whether they are bad or good. If you allow one fanfic mention, you allow them all. Really, even though
Shocker: Legit is leaps and bounds
394:
As for quality control, I don't buy for one minute that this is any kind of problem. Saying it's a problem is the politically correct route of not offending anyone. Who are we worried about offending here, though? The droves of egotistical wannabe authors who not only can't write a straight sentence
382:
Unless there's some hidden and very devoted base of
Shocker authors out there, TSL is the only special thing the character has in terms of fanwork and the fan community. It's a nod to the point made in the sentence you left intact. It goes back to what I said in the first place about a large fanbase
406:
I don't see any reason why there should be worry over offending people at what does and what doesn't get chosen. Any whiny brat trying to get their flagrant Mary Sue on Spider-Man's page would have it deleted by people with common sense about what makes a good story in five seconds flat. Again, the
370:
On the point of relevancy: the sentence immediately before makes note of the fact that
Shocker is considered underrated by fans and has a large fanbase; I will assume you believe this to be true, since you didn't delete it. Large chunks of the article before that, especially at the beginning, point
912:
Technically there is no rule on that we have to add plots on these anyways. I allow it half of the time. Especially if cite episode is used and is written as a fiction story. But
Crashsnake might be getting out of hand on the fact that he wants to keep adding more plot. When being brief like this
722:
First of all, I don’t think it’s worth noting in the infobox that he has genius-level intelligence. If that is even true, he seems to be a pretty sub-par genius, not even anywhere near the likes of Doctor
Octopus for example. This is such a common trait for comic book characters that I can’t see
515:
Also, shouldn't there be something about how the
Shocker was originally going to be called "the Vibrator" (because he has powers of vibration, not electricity, which is Electro's thing), until some editor realized...well, you know. Which is why he has a "V" on his belt to this day. No idea where I

And I humbly request someone more familar with
Ultimate Spiderman to work on the Ultimate section. Didn't the Shocker affect Ultimate Punisher? I -dimly- recall the Shocker's first case being news to a rapist, who wanted to use it to get out of jail and go after an almost-victim. The Punisher then

As much as I like the fanfic mentioned in the bio, it doesn't seem especially relevant - not to mention, referencing a fanfic seems like a very, very, very dangerous precedent. (If one is mentioned in a

This page was in drastic need of being cleaned up. I restructured it, added some history, and removed some of the blatantly uncited/speculative passages (while I'm a great fan of the character, exactly where does the proof that he has a large fan base come from?).
438:
That's pretty much it exactly - eventually, one would have to make a judgment call somewhere. It wouldn't necessarily be on the Shocker's page, but we really need to try and keep the standards of inclusion of material as universal as

Kudos to the people who fleshed out this article, providing canonical explanation as to why Shocker is a popular character (and, one presumes, why the author of The Shocker: Legit chose to write their fic in the first place).
