I just did what I did right now because comic con means a Comic book convention generally and it has not only to do with San Diego Comic-Con only.I mean that it seems to be more appropriate this tern.The tern Comic-Con is very vague, indefinite and unclear, because the tern Comic-Con is a about a Comic book convention generally and not only about San Diego Comic-Con. Can anyone understand what I am saying? For more information, anyone can ask me. I didn't have any bad intentions.I mean, I am not trying to destroy Tolkien Gateway.

I don't have strong feelings one way or another. I think the original intention was to err on the side of simplicity. Technically I believe "comic con" is a term for a comic book convention, and "Comic-Con" is a trademarked term owned by the San Diego Comic Convention^{very bottom}. For instance the New York and Washington D.C. conventions don't include the hyphenated term, due to SDCC enforcing their trademark on "Comic-Con". Incorporating the location into the title will allow us to create articles for notable comic cons in other cities though so I don't have a problem with it. The articles should still be fairly easy to locate even without the redirects. --Hyarion (talk) 20:09, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Besides being quite unnecessary, there are things linking to those redirects, so we cannot delete them. You could actually help the wiki by expanding those articles. --LorenzoCB (talk) 20:30, 22 October 2022 (UTC)

Please, restore the redirects or remove whatever links to them. --LorenzoCB (talk) 09:40, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
