Talk:Mars Attacks

Spelling of "Mars Attacks"

There is no exclamation point on the trading-card series Mars Attacks, as seen on the cover card on this page of Norm Saunders' site http://www.normansaunders.com/MrzAtx%2C01.html The exclam pt is only on the movie title. Subsequently, moving entry. — Tenebrae 03:46, 30 December 2005 (UTC)

Redirect?

Shouldn't this page simply be a redirect to Mars Attacks! since the page coveres both (!) and without (!)  ?Steve-O 01:28, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

I'd suggest keep Mars Attacks (sans "!") as the primary page since it, too, covers both, and since the source material, the original wellspring of all this, is the trading card series. If the header is Mars Attacks! that you're writing about the movie first, and backtracking to explain it came from the card set, and then you have to explain the card set. It just seems to make sense to start with the source material, and then go on to the spin-offs, IMHO. — Tenebrae 02:42, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

Or maybe it'd be better to divide this entry into Mars Attacks (trading cards) and Mars Attacks! (film), a la The Godfather (novel) and The Godfather (film)? — Tenebrae 06:36, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Someone will have to put a looooooooooot of work into the articles to make this a viable option -- otherwise we'll just end up with two stubs. ~CS 01:28, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

Card No. 56

In the yearly Overstreet Comicbook Price Guide (in the 70's, I think), someone put an ad in the Guide with Mars Attacks card number 56, with picture of said card. There was an immediate panic from card collectors who thought they now had incomplete set. It turned out to be someone playing a joke on them.(178.236.117.122 (talk) 12:37, 12 October 2013 (UTC))

COI?

A mostly WP:SPA editor, which goes under various IP addresses including 2602:30A:C039:6C50:5D77:6E43:654B:EE38 today, has added promotional edits and may be a marketing / press person for Topps or a related company. If such apparent WP:COI editing persists, an admin will be asked to investigate the source of this and the similar IP addresses. --Tenebrae (talk) 19:10, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

That apparently promotional COI editor is now going under 2602:30A:C039:6C50:5C44:7EE8:5C1D:57AE. If they continue to make inappropriate, promotional edits, an admin will be asked to block this to anon IPs, in addition to a sock investigation. --Tenebrae (talk) 18:45, 13 August 2017 (UTC)
