Visitor Q

I was wondering if anyone thought it would be a good idea to add the Kennedy Guide Numbers to the Wiki? I kinda figured the core of the Wiki is based off Kennedy's Guide so I was wondering if we should add the numbers to the index page, that way it would be easy to see what numbers have not been entered. Then for the stuff that is not in Kennedy's guide we could just leave unnumbered for the meantime until we figure up something...

I always liked the number system if Kennedy's Guide myself.

Just an idea.

So should we listed then like this?

2. Aardvark Papers (#1)

or

(2.) Aardvark Papers (#1)

or

[KGN 2.] Aardvark Papers (#1)

See Aardvark Papers is the perfect example, it is not the first comix listed in Kennedy's Guide.

Ok, let me run it by the other moderators for approval.

Thanks.

Visitor Q

Well like I said, I feel that the core project here is to have Kennedy's full guide listed in the Wiki and this is an easy way to point out the gaps.

It's just my opinion, but pound signs are ugly.

Visitor Q

It's all the same to me... Sir Real uses "TOUANC Price Guide #", I though "KGN" was short and sweet.

It's all the same but "TOUANC Price Guide #" is a bit too long IMO.

I thought JK was good since Zonker used if for UGComix.info already.

Reverend

JK would be the simplest abbreviation to use.

I've been thinking about this for several years, so i got a few suggestions ready:

How about 4 diget numbers, and something as a placeholder. so the titles all line up.
So it's easy for those who don't know what the numbers mean, to ignore them.

(0002) Aardvark Papers (#1)
(0011) Ace of Spades (Crush Dice Comics Co., a Division of Comix East 1973) 0.75
(xxxx) Acid Bath Case (Kitchen Sink Press 1992) 4.95 Book
(0012) Acid Reigns
(0013) Acme #1 (Mark Hannon 1973)

How about decimal places for the titles between:

0011.00 Ace of Spades (Crush Dice Comics Co., a Division of Comix East 1973) 0.75
0011.50 Acid Bath Case (Kitchen Sink Press 1992) 4.95 Book
0012.00 Acid Reigns
0013.00 Acme #1 (Mark Hannon 1973)

Maybe we should forget JK's numbers and start from scratch?
Try to create a universal or difinative numbering system? (Dobbie Decimal System? :icon_weed:)
With plenty of gaps to fill in.
