== Wonder Man ==

Supposedly [[Wonder Man]] is going to appear in the second Guardians of the Galaxy movie.  However, I am concerned that the sources people have been using for this information are not [[WP:RS|reliable sources]]. [[Special:Contributions/73.168.15.161|73.168.15.161]] ([[User talk:73.168.15.161|talk]]) 02:00, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

== Proposed merge of [[Sunday strip]] and [[Sunday comics]] ==

For all practical purposes, these seem to be identical topics, and should be selectively merged into one article discussing the Sunday comic supplement, which is composed of strips (many of which are also printed daily without color). Any objections? See [[Talk:Sunday_comics#Proposed_merge_with_Sunday_strip]]. Cheers, [[User:Animalparty|--Animalparty!]] ([[User talk:Animalparty|talk]]) 01:26, 5 May 2016 (UTC)
:Having had a look at them both, they do seem to cover the same topic from only slightly different angles. Neither looks too long to justify splitting them, so unless there's likely to be a substantial expansion of either in the near future, I'd say '''support'''.

== 1945 DC Comics Christmas party photo ==

I wanted to call attention to a picture which [[Todd Klein]] posted on his website. It's a photo of DC Comics' 1945 Christmas party. This could be a goldmine of source material of cropped photos for articles which currently lack photos of various Golden Age creators.

== Avengers (comics) split ==

[[The Avengers (comic book)]] was recently split from [[Avengers (comics)]]. The problem is that most of the article's [[WP:Real-world]] information left with the split, leaving a mostly [[WP:PLOTONLY]] article. Should these articles be re-merged?--[[User:TriiipleThreat|TriiipleThreat]] ([[User talk:TriiipleThreat|talk]]) 18:11, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
:Well, I'm not sure they need to be merged, but they weren't split right anyway. The section on collected editions should be with the publication history. If the split is kept, then [[Avengers (comics)]] should be a DAB and the content currently there should be renamed (I have no suggestions). Both pages should have a more explicit link to the other, as well. I've alerted the IP who did the split to this conversation. [[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]] ([[User talk:Argento Surfer|talk]]) 19:18, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
::Thank you, [[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]]. Thank you also for bringing this to discussion, [[User:TriiipleThreat|TriiipleThreat]]. Also thank you to [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] for doing a bit of cleanup. I think that the Avengers comic title has some legs to stand on its own separate from the titular characters, much like [[The Amazing Spider-Man]] or [[The Incredible Hulk (comic book)]] and other such long-running titles. The sources are there for both. Anything I did wrong with the split can be fixed. [[Avengers (comics)]] looked like [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Avengers_(comics)&oldid=719126464 this] a day ago so any parts that need to be reverted can be done so. I tried to focus the content on the comic title article using as little in-universe text as possible to get the point across. I did remove some of the language from the "fictional biography" section that had more to do with who was writing the books and what issues the stories took place in, but I left anything referring to the fact that it was a story including the names of storylines. The Fictional biography section was written kind of strangely anyway.  About 25-30% of it was "This writer wrote this storyline using his favorite story as inspiration, while this artist brought dynamic perspective to the artwork", and the rest of it was purely in-universe for a few sentences in a row, as much as you see on almost any comics character article. My feeling is that the article on the team should focus on the characters and story details (using as much out-of-universe description as possible) and the article on the comic title should focus on the creators and publication details. [[Special:Contributions/73.168.15.161|73.168.15.161]] ([[User talk:73.168.15.161|talk]]) 01:12, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
:::I think the split was warranted, though I don't feel the need to make [[Avengers (comics)]] a dab. I think a hatnote would be sufficient, something I'll [[WP:BOLD|boldly]] add, along with moving the collected edition info. - [[User:Favre1fan93|Favre1fan93]] ([[User talk:Favre1fan93|talk]]) 04:10, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
::::"My feeling is that the article on the team should focus on the characters and story details" in other words a [[WP:PLOTONLY]] description. I think the article's should be re-merged and you should work to ensure that the remaining article can stand on it own before attempting to resplit it. Unfortunately, you left a problematic article in even worse condition.--[[User:TriiipleThreat|TriiipleThreat]] ([[User talk:TriiipleThreat|talk]]) 13:34, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
:::::I don't think that's a fair characterization of my viewpoint.  My thinking was that the comic book title article has the potential to look something like [[The Amazing Spider-Man]] while the team article has the potential to look something like [[Spider-Man]].  Certainly the Avengers, as characters and a publication - both together and as separate entities, have enough history and commentary and a legacy that they can be treated well.  So if this is still a discussion as to whether a split is warranted, then I maintain that it is warranted (and I think I have some agreement here).
:::::As to whether I handled it well, of course that is up for debate.  All articles are works in progress, so this is no exception.  Following my own example of the [[Spider-Man]] article, notice how it focuses on the characterization and storylines ''without'' being a plot-only in-universe mess.  I think we can do the same here.  But not immediately.  If you go back to what it looked like before the split (see the link in my reply above), you will see that the "Fictional biography" section was probably a good one-half to two-thirds in-universe.  Undoing the split will not help that, but careful editing will.  Still, especially after looking at my own example, I can see where I can put some of the words back to make the section less in-universe, and I will make an attempt at clean-up. Maybe I can do even a little better than that. [[Special:Contributions/73.168.15.161|73.168.15.161]] ([[User talk:73.168.15.161|talk]]) 03:27, 17 May 2016 (UTC)
::::::If we deleted [[Avengers (comics)]], renamed the [[Avengers (comic book)]] page to that name, expanded the publication history section to discuss storyline decisions (also appeasing WP:PLOT fiends) and then added some real-world commentary about the characters/themes/history of the series, we end up with a fairly good article.[[User:Zythe|Zythe]] ([[User talk:Zythe|talk]]) 09:54, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

:Done. I marked it as a "no" for coverage and accuracy because there's very little about him outside of his comic work. What's his birthday? He's "from" Kansas City, but was he born there, or does he still live there? Maybe both? Did he attend a college, or receive any formal training? Is he married and/or a father? Has he ever named his influences? Is "comic writer" the only job he's had? I think the article needs some questions like this to be answered before it's a B level article. They don't have to be these specific questions, just basic biography information. [[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]] ([[User talk:Argento Surfer|talk]]) 12:55, 16 May 2016 (UTC)
::I've been unable to find his birthday or any more detailed information about his past. I know he's married, so I'll be sure to add that. Gets kinda' tricky with someone who's notable enough to have a page, but not notable enough to have a biography much anywhere else but here.

== First Appearance vs Cameo ==

{{rfc|media|rfcid=BC56B6D}}
This has [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Adam_Warlock&type=revision&diff=537975092&oldid=537949399 come up before], but [[User:Arionapollo]] has brought this up on [[User talk:Argento Surfer#Adam Warlock|my talk page]] and I thought I'd invite more voices to the table since this could apply to other characters as well.

Basically, the [[Adam Warlock]] publication history currently says "The character debuted in Fantastic Four #66-67 ... [and had] a second appearance as "Him" in Thor #165-166" Arionapollo, citing CGC and Overstreet, [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Adam_Warlock&type=revision&diff=719894035&oldid=719888695 wants to note] the ''Fantastic Four'' issues are a cameo, and specify the character's "first full appearance" as the ''Thor'' issues. However, 
* The FF issues present his origin in full. 
* Old ''Wizard'' magazines note that FF 66 is a cameo, and FF67 is the first appearance. 
* Marvel says his first appearance was [http://marvel.com/universe/Warlock,_Adam FF 66]. 
* There was a 2 year gap between the FF and Thor stories. 

I think the current wording is sufficiently generic, and avoids making a judgment on what's a cameo and what's a true first appearance. Google [https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=adam+warlock+first+appearance+thor+165 provides some additional support] for the Thor books, but all the top hits are from sites promoting the book for its sale value. 

[[Venom (comics)]] gives his first appearance as ASM #300, and specifies in the publication history he appeared in cameo on the last page of #299. 
[[Apocalypse (comics)]] gives his first appearance as X-Factor #5 in the lead, and the infobox specifies #5 was "in shadow" and #6 was "first full appearance". 
The lead and PH of [[Wolverine (character)]] mentions Hulk 180 as his "first appearance" and Hulk 181 as his "first full appearance". The infobox has Hulk 180 listed as a cameo.

# Should the publication history section or infobox distinguish between cameos and first appearances?
# Is this disagreement significant enough to discuss within the article?
[[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]] ([[User talk:Argento Surfer|talk]]) 23:33, 17 May 2016 (UTC)


I think its worth agreeing a formal definition for First Appearance, Cameo and First Full Appearance. They sound similar and in many cases may have been used synonymously with each other. A formal definition would remove the ambiguous use for each one in hundreds of articles and introduce some consistency on future edits.

I propose...

* First Appearance: The first issue that the character can be clearly seen in the form/costume recognised by an average comic reader. Not in shadow, invisible or disguised as someone else. Venom in ASM #299.
* Cameo: [Discuss]
* First Full appearance: The first issue they take part in a story in a meaningful way or feature in a sizable portion of it. Venom in ASM #300.

:While both articles are lacking on sources, [[cameo]] specifically notes it's a brief appearance by a ''known'' character, like Stan Lee in Marvel movies, as opposed to minor roles by actors before they became stars. [[First appearance]] is "the first occurrence to feature a fictional character." [[First full appearance]] doesn't exist.

*I'm here because I saw the request on the RfC Noticeboard.  Although I'm not particularly well-versed in the subject matter here, the basic question is one that shows up in most topics on Wikipedia -- what to do when reliable sources disagree on something.  My view is that the preferable approach is to address the discrepancies in the article itself.  The alternative is to try to find some agreement as to what the reliable sources ''should'' have said.  But even if you succeed in reaching some consensus on the "truth" of the matter, that success will only be temporary. Inevitably, some future editor is going to decide that you got it wrong.  And so, I suggest that Argento's option 2 (discuss the differing reliable opinions within the article) is the approach that will best lead to a stable article.  I hope this was helpful.

== Essex in X-Men: Apocalypse ==

Is [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Mister_Sinister&curid=528214&diff=721057280&oldid=721033952 this] a trivial non-appearance, or do we need to include this information in the article?

:The point of the scene is to namedrop Sinister, so it can hardly be called trivial. The briefcase slamming closed, dramatically revealing the name "Essex," is the final shot of the entire movie. That is why it exists. (Well, that and to obviously set up X-23.) - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] ([[User talk:Chris McFeely|talk]]) 22:12, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

:::When Amazing Spider-Man 2 came out, editors wanted to add a notes to [[Doctor Octopus]] and [[Vulture (comics)]] saying their equipment appeared in the film. The consensus was that these Easter eggs were not notable unless something developed from them. Are there confirmed plans for another X film with Sinister announced as a villain? If not, this is a trivial non-appearance of the character and shouldn't be mentioned on the page. [[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]] ([[User talk:Argento Surfer|talk]]) 12:43, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
::::Thanks [[User:Argento Surfer|Argento Surfer]], that's what I figured. [[Special:Contributions/65.126.152.254|65.126.152.254]] ([[User talk:65.126.152.254|talk]]) 14:00, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
::::Sure, but those are  easter eggs in a scene that's about something else (setting up the Rhino for the final scene - and the tentacles ''are'' mentioned on Ock's page). In this case, establishing Sinister is the sole reason the scene exists - and it's a post-credits stinger designed for maximum drama and excitement. This isn't like the list of name on a computer screen in X2 or something. This is "Sinister will be in future films" territory, just like Thanos showing up in a stinger in Avengers. To not mention that a scene in a major motion picture is dedicated to establishing the character's existence seems silly. - 14:38, 20 May 2016 (UTC)

:::::That, and "will appear in future films" is pure [[WP:CRYSTAL]], especially if we don't have a source saying that he actually will appear in future films.

:::::It doesn't matter whether he'll appear in future films or not; he's directly referenced anyway, so the fact that he does not appear in the scene doesn't matter as well. Since there are moments in other Marvel films in which a character's name appears (in a list with names, for example) and the page about the character includes this kind of information, why should it be any different in this case? After all, there are no rules saying that only physical appearances should be listed. Also, the sole purpose of the scene was to show Mister Sinister will exist at some extent in the MCU, even if only in the scene - something I don't believe Marvel will do, since Mister Sinister would be a great main villain for a film. - [[User:Jmcalil|Jmcalil]] ([[User talk:Jmcalil|talk]]) 04:02, 23 May 2016 (UTC)
