This should never have got this far, though. When did Comixpedia go online? Wikipedia could never be the global directory of all webcomics, that is something we are not and Comixpedia apparently is; we should have been better at communicating that.
That Howard Tayler mounted his campaign apparently unaware of the existence of Comixpedia doesn't speak well to Comixpedia's mindshare in its supposed primary audience, the webcomics subculture.
I suspect that he is aware of Comixpedia. (Though I have no personal contact with him, and don't honestly know. But I'd be surprised if he's not aware.) But remember also that Comixpedia was designed as the angry fork from Wikipedia - the second choice alternative.
