Regarding your edit to Outlived Its Creator

Summary by Looney Toons

I made an error, a user noticed.

I looked it up, while the comic strip Thimble Theater did first appear in 1919, Popeye was not introduced as a character until 1929. (Popeye is one of the biggest examples of an Ascended Extra in media history.)


Not sure how to phrase this though.

Ah. Misleading phrasing in an infobox on Wikipedia caught me up; that's what I get for editing in the last minutes before going to bed. How about just "nearly a century"? Then in eight years we can change it to "over a century" and we'll be set for at least a hundred years. <grin>

EDIT: And I've gone ahead and corrected my edit. You know, just because I'm a mod doesn't mean you can't correct the page when I've made an error like that.

I know, but I didn't want to be accused of Edit Warring. Thanks.

... we're not TVT. Why would you think you'd get accused of edit warring? It takes a bit more than just correcting a mod error.

I know, I know, but I was kicked off TVT for similar issues and it's kinda hard to forget. Thanks for the reminder.
