Talk:Hypertime

Unsourced Speculation

Hypertime has been infrequently used in DC titles subsequent to its introduction in The Kingdom, perhaps as a result of its chief architects and proponents, writers Mark Waid and Grant Morrison, working elsewhere in the comics industry (notably for Marvel Comics).

This is unsourced and speculative. Going to remove it.129.139.1.68 (talk) 17:23, 14 April 2010 (UTC)

I removed the asinine preamble about Hypertime as a "legitimate" concept, for obvious reasons.

Multiversity and Hypertime

The Multiversity Guidebook explained that the 52 multiverse ("New shoots, fresh fractal branches wormed their way though hypertime and 52 new universes were born") and the changes it went through to become the New 52 multiverse ("Which were erased and renewed, as continuities rose and fell in waves and troughs") were the results of hypertime. On a side note don't put "citation needed" when the work referenced is right in the very sentence. It looks silly at best.--2606:A000:7D44:100:210E:F8E4:8218:C8BB (talk) 14:12, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

• The page is littered with "unreliable source" tags. Yoninah (talk) 14:03, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

Reply They don't like two of the books, which they opine are "self published." They are books, and they are the best sources available on the subject. And there are several of them, which corroborate the facts cited. This is the nature of this subject. Indeed, some of the books themselves use and expressly cite to website material, which is deemed to be authoritative on the subject. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 15:22, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

• So what do you suggest doing about the tags? Yoninah (talk) 18:07, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

We can ignore this and recognize that this is correct information. Or we can purge the cited material and the citations. Other than that, I have no plan. And we will then probably need a new hook. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 23:28, 28 July 2020 (UTC)

I removed IMO, this does not improve the article, but this is a setback that is not worth the fight. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 00:39, 29 July 2020 (UTC)

• I also removed Hickey from the Bibliography, and commented out a note that was tagged as an unreliable source. What's left looks fine. Here is a review: 5x expansion verified. New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced, no close paraphrasing seen. Hook ref verified and cited inline. QPQ done. Good to go. Yoninah (talk) 10:45, 29 July 2020 (UTC)
