Canon material
Ok, am I missing something here? How many episodes have already aired? I think there's only one, and it definitely didn't have all the information posted on this article. What's the source for all these minutiae? ―  T hailog  15:25, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty sure someone has just been adding info based on what happened in the comics, despite the fact that YJ may be very different from the mainstream DC universe. Some stuff comes from interviews, although Greg Weisman has pointed out that they aren't necessarily reliable. So I tend to think we should be phasing out the unsourced elements in the near future. -- Supermorff 15:38, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * I figured. That used to happen in the DCAU Wiki all the time. Sometimes it still does. Editors think they need to fill every gap with comics canon, even if it's inconsistent with the animated universe. That's why we have a conjecture policy. Maybe it should be imported over to here. ―  T hailog  15:45, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Maybe, or some of it anyway. I don't think we need the same templates, though. A little note in the infobox next to the 'name' should be sufficient. Greg Weisman also suggested some sort of distinction between the canon stuff and non-canon stuff from, e.g. interviews, although I think as long as the interviews are referenced as such then it's not such a huge issue. -- Supermorff 15:53, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * It sounds doable. We have a template for questionable material that highlights the text and has a hover note. Maybe we could use something similar here, but more subtle? ―  T hailog  16:06, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * I already made a template here, but it doesn't link anywhere yet since we don't have a policy page about it. -- Supermorff 16:26, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * I see. But that is for unsourced material, I was thinking of a way to make non-canon, sourced, material stand out from regular text(=canon). ―  T hailog  16:35, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ah, I gotcha. Yeah, we had a thing like that at GargWiki too: http://gargoyles.dracandros.com/Template:CIT . Makes text bold and blue. -- Supermorff 17:29, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Ah, nice. That's what I was going for. We should use that too. What does CIT mean? ―  T hailog  17:37, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Sorry, that's a Weisman-ism. "Canon-in-training". Mainly things from Ask Greg that haven't shown up in canon material - probably true but subject to change. Not sure blue is a good colour, though, since it'll be very similar to the links on the site. Can't use red either for the same reason. Yellow/gold? Orange? Green? Purple? I don't know. -- Supermorff 17:43, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * Green... green is good. Nice work! -- Supermorff 18:13, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

Test
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.


 * Does it stand out alright? ―  T hailog  18:14, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * It looks good, but maybe it does need to stand out a bit more. Tad more saturated, or lighter? -- Supermorff 18:20, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

Lighter: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah link, blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Darker: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah link, blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Orange: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah link, blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Yellow: Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah link, blah blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Of the above, I like them all except 'Orange', which blends in a little too well with red links. -- Supermorff 18:33, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * That wouldn't be a problem if we decided to go with orange. I could easily change the color of red (and blue) links inside the CIT template. I'd just need access to the CSS, or someone to do it for me. ―  T hailog  18:41, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * ... You can do that? Awesome. But if we're trying to narrow it down, we might as well not go with orange anyway. -- Supermorff 18:45, December 5, 2010 (UTC)


 * We can do almost everything with CSS. A pain in the ass sometimes, but it's our friend. Though, I'm not a fan of orange neither. I'm kinda liking the yellow one, or lighter green. The former stands out better. ―  T hailog  18:48, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

Dick o Tim
Are we sure this Robin is meant to be Grayson? His skill set matched Tim Drake more. --Roguebfl Talk 01:42, January 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * It was confirmed to be Grayson, I can't remember where now, maybe look in the sources section. I'm out of the house at the moment, but once I get home I will find you a link. Will94  (Talk - TTFF - Teru) 04:31, January 26, 2011 (UTC)


 * For a completely canon source, issue #0 of the comic has Alfred refer to him as "Master Dick". -- Supermorff 18:37, January 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Given the drop zone episode where they choce a lead declears he's 13, and Bane's on the scene, and Robin knows who he is, that fits with Drake not Grayson. --Roguebfl Talk 03:16, January 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well, this is a completely different universe with its own timeline, so that argument doesn't really hold. The spin-off comic, which is written by series creator Greg Weisman and staff writer Kevin Hopps, refer to Robin as "Master Dick". That is a canon reference. If you want something clearer (but not necessarily canon), we'll have to go direct to the creators. Here and here, Greg Weisman specifies that Robin is Dick Grayson. Here he explains that this is Earth-16 and not tied to previous continuity. If that's not sufficient, well then I have nothing more to give you. But Robin is Grayson not Drake. -- Supermorff 09:14, January 29, 2011 (UTC)

Words
I don't know if this is something worth mentioning, maybe, but has anyone else noticed he tends to mess with words a bit? Like, in the first episode, he's heard underwhelmed and overwhelmed, and wonders why no one is just whelmed. He then uses whelmed as a word throughout the rest of the episode. He's done the same to disconcerted (concerted) and I think disturbed, but the last one I'm not sure about. -- Aliana * Anima della tundra! 10:52, February 4, 2011 (UTC)


 * Yeah, he said 'turbed' a couple of times. Mention it if you like, because it seems like a thing he does a lot. -- Supermorff 23:13, February 4, 2011 (UTC)

Okay first of all, is all of Robin's abilities copied and pasted from the Teen Titans Robin? I've read over it, some of it is true, and the others are NOT. Someone needs to fix it because....it looks pretty bad.


 * Well, we're a wiki. Why not edit it yourself? -- Supermorff 18:31, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

Good point.

However, I'm not that good at elaborating, which is why I think someone else should do it. I dont think me doing it would be such a good idea.
