Skills Deleted?[]

I don't understand what you mean, he was knight before he became the King when he pulled the sword from the stone. He was not raised as a prince, he was raised by Sir Ector to be a knight. So why have this skills been deleted. Delboy26 (talk) 18:18, October 17, 2012 (UTC)

Sources? Has this been used in DC's version of King Arthur? --Tupka217 18:35, October 17, 2012 (UTC)

Creator credits[]

Do we really give creator credits for characters adapted from legends? It seems quite strange to me, especially in this case, since the story of Rafael Astarita follows Le Morte d'Arthur almost to the letter. Danter7 (talk) 06:01, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

(Self-correction: Astarita's story is an adaptation of Idylls of the King, which was itself derived from "Le Morte d'Arthur"). Danter7 (talk) 15:25, 31 July 2021 (UTC)

We usually don't with adapted fictional characters, unless the original author also received a writing credit. --Tupka217 (talk) 15:35, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
Well this is the 1930s we're dealing with, in this particular case, Astarita just signed his strip near the end, and he didn't even sign the first chapter, which is the only one dealing with Arthur himself. But neither GCD nor Who's Who identify him as the writer of this story, which makes sense because Astarita was not known to be a writer at all. So I'm going to remove his creator credits.
