There has been some back and forth over my edits. I didn't think the changes were bold, and I thought a revert or two was fair, to discuss in edit summaries and now on the talk page.
I feel strongly that it is unhelpful to readers of this encyclopedia article to take a sentence discussing the Punisher series and to provide them with a generic link to to The Punisher comic book character. In the context of this article about a Netflix series a link to Punisher series is much more relevant, and more likely to be what readers expect.
Others disagree, since at the time the Punisher series was only a proposal and not yet in development. I can see how that may have been the best decision at the time but now that there is an article for Punisher series, and now makes sense to use it. The principle of least astonishment applies (see also WP:EGG). The strict chronology of when things happened at the time isn't necessarily useful to readers of an article now and that makes all the difference.
I'll be requesting a 3rd opinions either later today or tomorrow. -- 109.78.201.13 ( talk) 18:45, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
The strict chronology of when things happened at the time isn't necessarily useful to readers of an article now and that makes all the difference.That's your opinion, and that's what you need to gain a consensus for, as we've been telling you. Edit summaries are not the place for discussion. By the way, don't cry against accusations then make accusations yourself. Makes for a poor editing experience on your end. -- Alex TW 02:06, 9 September 2018 (UTC)
This article confirms that Jones will continue to appear as Iron Fist in other areas of the MCU, but I'm not quite sure where it would be best to put this info. - adamstom97 ( talk) 22:24, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
Adam, please explain this. The source doesn't mention Iron Fist, and you are reading it in. "ambiguous marketing material cited to primary sources" is just a garnish on the main reason, which is that the content is essentially unsourced. Additionally, this edit implies you revert my edits without even thinking, since you initially reverted my carefully, manually restoring that part of your edit which wasn't a revert of my own.

the only "officially" cancelled ones were Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Daredevil, so the statement definitely applies to those three series. We don't say that it will definitely happen, we just say that he said there was potential. And we definitely don't say that it might not apply to Iron Fist because some people don't like that show. That would be unbelievably biased, even for you. - adamstom97 ( talk) 03:21, 10 January 2019 (UTC)
