::Great you are contributing. I think the description is fine, as I (probably disagree here with Dgbrt) think that it is great to start an explanation be mentioning the characters in the comic, as people coming here rarely only to check a comic the few times they are in doubt, may not use/know our invented names for the characters. Of course the real explanation of the concepts should then be added, but your contribution should in my opinion not be deleted. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 18:40, 1 March 2017 (UTC) | ::Great you are contributing.

- Since Kynde mentions me here is my opinion on this -- nevertheless every contribution is welcome and helpful:
- Readers here looking for an explanation on the pun -- the names of the characters are irrelevant in this case.
- This comic is a good example because people reading the original comic often without recognizing the title text. And sadly still only a few of them looking afterwards here.
- If readers can read here only that what they've already seen they won't come back. And if they are overwhelmed by suspicious explanations they probably won't too.
- So everybody is welcome to contribute, but this isn't a writers wiki -- it's for the readers.--Dgbrt (talk) 21:14, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
