Dent

• Since Velez was born in New York, he was by default an American citizen. Please list his citizenship in the infobox and introduction. Dentface (talk) 00:44, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Sure, added.
• |- bgcolor="#CCCCCC" align="center" can be removed from the table. It is unnecessary. Additionally, you don't need to bold the titles of each column in the table, that's done automatically. Dentface (talk) 00:47, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
  • For the life of me I don't understand wiki tables, fixed.
• The Science Fiction Encyclopedia, an official publication managed by professional editors (AKA, not a wiki), cites Velez's full birth date. That would be useful for this article. If that's not enough of a primary source, a German museum has a bio PDF about him that also has the same info. Dentface (talk) 00:58, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Nice find, added.
• Specify is birth place a little more, please, since Jill's website provides information. Spanish Harlem is another name for East Harlem. So his place of birth should read "East Harlem, New York, United States." Dentface (talk) 00:58, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Didn't do it exactly like that since East Harlem is a neighborhood and not a city, but added. JediMasterMacaroni^(Talk) 03:44, 12 September 2022 (UTC)

Manoof

• I think we can use this quote from the Gallery page "Walter consistently turned out colorful, well-composed and wonderfully light-hearted interpretations of the books he had been commissioned to illustrate. His ‘visual signature” was often a witty interpretation; always well thought out and rendered with a sure hand." Manoof (he/him/his) (talk) 09:07, 3 October 2022 (UTC)
  • Added. JediMasterMacaroni^(Talk) 00:53, 4 October 2022 (UTC)

Comments

• Please take note of my copy edit. Dentface (talk) 00:44, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
  • Sure, still getting used to real-world articles. JediMasterMacaroni^(Talk) 03:44, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
