Female and male Characters

What's the purpose of breaking up the character list into females and males? Seems like a strange organizational choice to me. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 04:54, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Val's Book Club

Thanks, Bunchofgrapes, for fixing that Alice link. I tried to make it an internal link but for some reason nothing I tried would work. McGehee 00:55, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Oh sure. The usual formula is [[Alice (Dilbert charater)|Alice]], where the stuff before the "pipe character" | is the actual page name and the stuff after is how you want the text to appear. There's something we call the "pipe trick" to shorten that for pages named "Xxxx (yyyy)" though -- you put in the pipe after the real page name but nothing after it. So [[Alice (Dilbert character)|]] gives you Alice. —Bunchofgrapes (talk) 01:37, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

Perhaps a comment that the Book Club is actually unfeasible, since Elly (For Better or Worse) is established as living in Canada, and Rose and Alice (at least) definately live in the US. By the way, 'Jeremy's mother' (Zits) is named Connie Duncan. CFLeon 21:58, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

Setting

Removing the comment that the strip is set in Eugene, OR. That is where the artist lives, but there are numerous references in the strip to the location being Ohio. --H-ko (Talk) 12:51, 3 October 2011 (UTC)

Val's 1st husband's death

Has it ever been revealed how Val's first husband died? If someone knows, it would be nice to add that to this page. Spiff666 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 12:35, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

Recent

As a general rule words such as "recent" or "new" should not be used in articles. For instance in the "Main Characters" subsection, about Evie it said, "...she met her new boyfriend...", but that happened in 2009, six years ago as I write this, and Evie is now married to him. No one could consider her boyfriend "new" six years after she meets him. Nick Beeson (talk) 11:54, 13 October 2015 (UTC)
