Flag Vandalism

"Single page of a comic"

Pretty sure single-page comics are allowed.
What's with the weird comic flag reasons lately?

I think the key part of that flag is the "quality check" part. The other bit is probably there because pages within comics are often approved even when they wouldn't be good enough by themselves because they add to the wider comic and thus other images would lose value if they were to be deleted, which obviously doesn't apply when only a single page is uploaded.

It's actually a quite common flag reason, though some users complained about only having "Single page of a comic" as the reason so "quality check" was added later.

Huh, I thought it was implying that there's a comic that this post belongs to when there isn't. Similar to the weird "published manga" flags I alluded to earlier.
Alright then, thanks for the clarification.

Single-page comics are allowed. I guess the point is that it looks like it’s a “single page of a (longer) comic” and doesn’t make much sense to have it by itself.

Sure it could look like that to someone who isn't familiar with the content.

The artist does these comics regularly and they're quite amusing. They're usually based on something amusing from the game (for this one it's about Romulus being so tall, and that both him and Vlad are Lancers so the Master uses them on the same team). I think the flagger should at least check the source and not assume things on their own when they're unfamiliar with what they're flagging.

That's what it is, yes. It is/was mainly used on very old uploads where people just uploaded the best/sexiest porn page and nothing else, which is where the flag makes more sense.

The flag reason was quality check. I just put single page of a comic to show that its not part of a pool.

See, that would have been a valid flag reason.

For what it's worth, it's the uploader that flagged it.

"Off Topic." Not sure how ilulu_(maidragon) is off-topic, however.

Maybe you should make that "flag reasons must always have 10 words minimal" to stop the rampant use of "x check".

Bonked them.

That would just lead to word bloat. There are plenty of 2 or 3-word flags that are both perfectly valid and say everything there is to say. e.g. "hard translated dupe" or "off topic" (on something that actually is off topic) or "unsourced dupe" which seems to have been used quite a few times recently.

Well, then what solution you suggest?

I don't think there's much that can be done. 'Quality/anatomy check' are currently valid flag reasons. It's mostly used when a post may have questionable quality, and the uploader or approver might have overlooked details in the art shows that. If the post is good enough, it will likely be approved. If it isn't approved, you can later appeal for the post to return to qeue again.
