editIs it still running? "Current week" is a dead link, and I don't find anything recent in the archives. —Tamfang 06:50, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Er, yes - three days a week as per usual. He last updated yesterday. Rebecca 08:53, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
- Then could someone change the URL given in the article to one that leads to content? —Tamfang 02:01, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
- Done, somewhat belatedly. -84.223.78.86 (talk) 18:37, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
I've removed altered the sentence:
"Bruno differs from the usual webcomic, that tends to reflect video games or student subculture, and instead deals with real, often controversial, issues through the daily life of the main character and her friends."
To me it sounds a bit too praising for an encyclopedia. And the contruct "the usual webcomic" is meaningless. Kingolf (talk) 21:28, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Newspaper sources
editAfter I reverted an un-discussed merge of Bruno (webcomic) to Christopher Baldwin, I started looking for printed paper sources for verifiability purposes.
A Google News search using the pattern "Bruno" baldwin comic produces several newspaper cites:
- New Sunday Times, Mar 18, 1998, a six column story covering both Helen, Sweetheart of the Internet (whose Wikipedia article has zero citations and no mention of Bruno) and Chris Baldwin's Bruno: "complex, eccentric", "first Internet comics crossover"
- New Straits Times, May 17, 1999: half-page six column article on Baldwin, the comic, and a movie option deal
- New York Times, Jun 20, 2002: three paragraphs in a story about web-blogging
Given these sources I consider the subject clearly notable, but will leave it to others to actually add the citations to the relevant articles. -84user (talk) 17:24, 16 August 2010 (UTC)
