Notes Section

I removed the Notes section because it wasn't about Happy Hogan. The fact that Hogan temporarily took up the mantle of Iron Man doesn't mean that discussion several others who took up the mantle in separate circumstances is germane to an article on Happy Hogan. --JamesAM 01:56, 26 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Susan Richards

I think Susan Richards should be mentioned in the article. She was there when Iron Man -seemingly- made his decision to mess with Hogan's life support. Even if he didn't, she was messing around during the hours leading to his death. Lots42 (talk) 06:02, 3 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

primary topic
for that name? In one sense you could say yeah, you've heard of him and his article is a lot longer. He's probably a lot better known to many more readers.
However, keep in mind that Happy Hogan (baseball) is an actual person in actual history, is a member of the hall of fame of league which was a very important leauge and was a founding member of that league, and was perhaps its best-known member in his time; keep in mind that minor league baseball in Hogan's time was independent and much more important than now -- somewhat like college football today, say. At his death "In the most remarkable tribute ever paid to the memory of any man in Los Angeles, 10,000 persons choked the (Wrigley Field (Los Angeles)) stands."[1] (granted, it was a (benefit) ballgame, so you have to assume the crowd was there for that mainly...).
He's forgotten now, and you've never heard of him, but see
WP:BUTIDONTKNOWABOUTIT; in the world-historical sense -- in terms of long-term significance -- Happy Hogan the ballplayer is probably at least on a reasonable par with the fictional secondary comic-book character.

Support per nom. There isn't any reason to think that this fictional supporting character should be considered the primary topic for "Happy Hogan". Egsan Bacon (talk) 15:01, 12 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
