Seb?
The whole Adric uploaded to the Nethersphere sounds like either a fanfic or spam. Isn't there a minimum proof requirement before allowing stuff on the Wiki? I like to think I'm very well versed on the DWU and this 'Seb' story has never crossed my path. Don't we require further evidence of its existence before such a bold statement can be added to a companion's article, if any article? The Farty  Doctor   Talk  04:28, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * No, it's legit! It's from DWM 560, which just came out and doesn't have a page yet, is all. Scrooge MacDuck ☎  11:54, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Oh that explains it. If you'd like I can read it later and create the page? The  Farty  Doctor   Talk  00:01, 11 January 2021 (UTC)

Infobox image
I changed the picture but I didn't realise this required a discussion, so here it is.

Personally I think the current infobox image is… not very good at all. Yes, it's close up and looking left. And User:CzechOut's reason for using it back in 2011 was that it's from Adric's first story. But I think it's just not a very good picture. Adric is in an awkward position and in my opinion isn't very recognizable, and I don't think it portrays him well as a character. I uploaded File:Adric smiles.jpg (which can be cropped if necessary), and of course there are plenty of other options for images that are viable for the infobox. (Though I don't see any on the wiki currently in Category:Adric images, aside from File:Adric - Earthshock.jpg which a) is probably better used in the article itself and b) is a bit… morbid for the infobox.) Does anyone else have feelings on this, or is it just me? Chubby Potato ☎  05:54, 15 July 2021 (UTC)


 * I too am not fond of the current image, though I am having trouble finding any suitable replacements. The image of Adric smiling could be good, but it will depend on the cropping. I have another that may be acceptable, so lets start a gallery so people can add more options (such as a cropped version of the "Adric smiles" image). LauraBatham ☎  06:45, 15 July 2021 (UTC)




 * Number 4 is out because it's not cropped enough. Shambala108 ☎  16:23, 15 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Agreed — and it's also not looking left. Scrooge MacDuck ☎  16:27, 15 July 2021 (UTC)


 * Actually, guys, I had accidentally uploaded the wrong crop. I've now uploaded the compliant crop.
 * As for Adric not looking left, I think you'll find T:GTI states that a character looking left is preferable, but not requirement. 📯 📂 16:40, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
