Image:Rom-1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

This article needs the B-Class checklist filled in to remain a B-Class article for the Comics WikiProject. If the checklist is not filled in by 7th August this article will be re-assessed as C-Class. The checklist should be filled out referencing the guidance given at Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment/B-Class criteria. For further details please contact the Comics WikiProject.

During Rom's original run, prior to going back to Galador, the Skrulls came to Earth to help in the extermination of the Dire Wraiths stating that they were an off shoot of the Skrull race and they, the Skrulls, were cleaning up part of their mess. The reference was made by a fan that wrote in stating that the abilities of the two races were similar and wondered if there was a connection. In an articale in the comic it stated that the person received a "No-Prize" for his contribution.
At one time I owned the complete series but no longer do. Can someone look and see which issue that was? Iandugan (talk) 21:28, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
I'm quite positive it's issue 50 without digging it up. Epic cover, pretty cool story. Anthony Malena 16:50, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
I remember an issue during Secret Wars II that showed Rom in a flashback cameo. I have not been able to identify this issue and don't have easy access to a good portion of my collection. His face was shown in the sky in a red outline. I came to this page wondering what crossovers like this would be like in reprint. --Scottandrewhutchins (talk) 19:12, 14 August 2014 (UTC)
Just wanted to clear up the description for an edit I made.
I took out the entirety of the Television section of "Other media", though when I backed up the change I said that the piece of concept art "is concept art". I meant to say that it was fan art. I wanted to point this out so that my statement is not taken at face value, allowing the Television section to be reinstated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.76.105.35 (talk) 02:32, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
Oppose - I'm not sure there's enough detail to warrant two different articles for the character, and furthermore the suggested title doesn't seem to be correct - all sources seem to show that the correct name for the character is "Rom Spaceknight" without "the" in the title. The current title of just "Rom" seems fine? Chaheel Riens (talk) 21:17, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
So I'm a month or two late, but here's a brief history of Rom's name.
And that brings us up to date. --Lkseitz (talk) 14:27, 18 January 2017 (UTC)
Hello. I think right title would be [Rom the Spaceknight] in order to avoid more confusion. Meanwhile, we can split the Rom (comics) article into [Rom the Spaceknight (Marvel Comics)] and [Rom the Spaceknight (IDW Publishing)]. F. E. Puricelli (talk) 15:05, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
So, re-opening the move discussion, I think that there are several things that could potentially happen in order to improve and possibly delineate the different incarnations of ROM here. I think that a lot of the reversions of previous attempts were mainly due to how they were carried out. Copy/paste moves are frowned upon in general, unless proper history attribution is given (edit summary or a Talk page ((Copied)) template is added), and the edit summaries were not super detailed. Additionally, the page moves and splitting need to ensure that enough weight and notability can be spread between each page.
Here are the steps that I think are needed:
Please feel free to point out any potential points that I missed. Note that #s 2-4 above are all labeled "Possibly" because while this makes sense at a high level, it might not make sense when making sure each individual page has enough notability established. (E.g. Having a toy article would only leave about a 10-sentence stub since all the biography would actually belong to the comics.) I don't want to get ahead of things though. Let's reach consensus on #1 and then move on from there. -2pou (talk) 02:07, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
I propose "Rom the Space Knight" as two words. This doesn't match the last proposal exactly, but it is what was attempted by F. E. Puricelli. Unfortunately, Hasbro has not been super consistent, but I propose this for a few reasons:
