Lead

[edit]

Is there a better way we can word the first sentence? Marvel Studios Special Presentation are a series of... just doesn't sound grammatically correct, nor does "is". Maybe we could change it to plural, i.e. Marvel Studios Special Presentations are a series of...? InfiniteNexus (talk) 05:07, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I was thinking we could follow the One-Shots article with the plural statement. Trailblazer101 (talk) 20:19, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Did "Special Presentations are a series..." — SirDot (talk) 20:45, 9 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Should the draft/article title be at the plural as well? Also the rest of the lead could use some expansion. I wasn't sure what else should be in there, and if it should follow the film/TV series list, or the One-Shots one. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 15:54, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think the title should be plural to be in-line with the One-Shots article. As for the lede, I think we should follow the format of the One-Shots as to make it reflective of the banner and the specials rather than following the list format, which is more of an overview that can be handled elsewhere.

Cool. I've made the move, and if we can get the lead shaped up/expanded a bit, I think this meant WP:GNG and can be moved. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:33, 10 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Cat rename

[edit]

Since more people will probably see this here, should Category:Television specials by Marvel Studios be speedy renamed to Category:Marvel Studios Special Presentations much like how we have Category:Marvel One-Shots? - Favre1fan93 (talk) 15:30, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I would support a speedy rename to that title. Trailblazer101 (talk) 15:50, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, this falls under WP:C2D. InfiniteNexus (talk) 18:48, 16 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Requested. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 14:45, 17 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Director by Night

[edit]

Should we including this as "actually" a Special Presentation (in its article placement and within the infobox)? Yes, Marvel.com gave the full title (and poster), but I took it more that it was branded as such since it applied to WWBN which is a Special Presentation, not that Director by Night was also one. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:09, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm debating on this myself, as it could very well just be a brand thing. Some outlets headlined it as the second Special Presentation, although, given it is a documentary focused on Michael Giacchino and his childhood works, and the BTS of WWBN, it does not fit within the MCU narratively speaking, which I think this article should primarily reflect. Per my edits on this, I think we should not include it as one of the Special Presentations and just as a tie-in to them, very much akin to Assembled, while noting it is part of that brand. We could launch a documentary table and sub-section for it, though I'd feel safer leaving such hidden until we get one for the GotG HS. Trailblazer101 (talk) 23:35, 14 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I concur. Given its documentary nature, I would not consider it a proper Special Presentation. InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:32, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Trailblazer101: FWIW, I felt your initial inclusion of the material was appropriate. But perhaps just (eventually) move what you did from "Development" to a new subsection pending what happens with the Holiday Special. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:58, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh yeah, I agree with that. Trailblazer101 (talk) 22:25, 16 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Nova on the future list

[edit]

Shouldn’t Nova be listed in the future Specials spot? Wasn’t it confirmed as a special? 0Detail-Attention215 (talk) 20:47, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Nothing reliably confirmed it as a special. It was confirmed to be Disney+ based however, so it is currently listed at List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series#Future. If that changes, it will be moved here. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:05, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
THR recently stated it was a series, which is what the articles currently reflect. Trailblazer101 (talk) 00:37, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I had no idea about it so that’s why I asked here. 0Detail-Attention215 (talk) 19:22, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Mephisto

[edit]

How confident are we that this is more than just a rumour? The source we are using says "It sounds like they may be doing his very own special." - adamstom97 (talk) 21:29, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am admittedly not so confident in it necessarily being a thing that we can definitely say is 100% happening. I'm more skeptical with this one given no production listings have noted it, and it's just from what one source told Sneider in what seems to be more of a potential thing. Trailblazer101 (talk) 22:12, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I just think if we aren't super confident with it we should probably stick to a mention on this page and draftify the separate article until we have more to go on. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:26, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'd support that. Trailblazer101 (talk) 22:56, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's probably best to keep it as a draft for now. -- ZooBlazertalk 20:22, 17 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I thought once it was first reported on, we might have gotten a trade following up on it, but I guess no one else was confident in their sources or rumors they were hearing to do so. I'm 50/50 on it going back to the draft space, but I won't stand in the way if that's what consensus wants. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:49, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
