Hello everyone,

I've been adding mentions in many of the New 52 series. Yesterday, however, I added appearances and mentions to the Batgirl and the Birds of Prey Vol 1 5. There was a rather long list of "mentions". I'm beginning to believe I might be going overboard on the "Mentioned" tag and that is should only be used if the person mentioned is significant to the plot. Saying "Superman lives in Metropolis" might not warrant a mention, but saying "I spoke with Superman about the latest super-villain" would warrant a mention.

Question 1: What should be the balance? I know the goal is to list everyone that appears in the comic, but what is the guideline for mentions?

Question 2: I tend to not put "mention" tags on locations, but I've noticed this being done in some places. What's the guideline for tagging locations as "mentioned only"?

Question 3: In Flash Vol 4 36, the 24th Century is included as a location. Is this correct? Acceptable?

Thanks for any help!
