Shouldn't this be called "alien races" of the MCU? I don't think these are "species", but are more of alien races. Natg 19 ( talk) 20:09, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
There's WP:NORUSH. Mutants haven't even been introduced to the universe yet. — El Millo ( talk) 16:21, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
Random, non sequitur sentence appears in this section, "Eson the Searcher is one of the previous owners of the Power Stone." Huh? Jyg ( talk) 02:46, 27 August 2021 (UTC)
Is there any reason why there is no mention at all about the Inhumans? There was a whole TV series about them after all, even if it wasn't that popular. -- 2003:E5:3F3D:A400:109E:10C6:C2E4:3BE8 ( talk) 20:38, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
2601:645:980:7a00:1d28:e6cb:4574:d736, please do not edit-war and explain your edits here. As I have explained, the article primarily refers to media produced by Marvel Studios, so Inhumans are not notable for their own section. Similarly, only one mutant has appeared in the MCU, so there is no need for an entire section dedicated to that. InfiniteNexus ( talk) 21:32, 27 June 2022 (UTC)
I'm having a hard time seeing what this article's purpose is. I see it was split off from the characters article, although the information here feels like they are all just bits from the comics articles' "In other media" sections and just an exhaustive list of plot details that lean more on the WP:FANCRUFT side of things than to provide real-world context for its inclusion in the encyclopedia. This is more so something you'd expect to see and search for on a fandom wiki, and is a compilation of whichever species the main characters are whilst largely going unsourced given its plot-focused nature. There's no criteria for what a "main species" is, and frankly, I think this list is unneeded repetition of what can be covered at the comics articles. If there's anything that doesn't have an article, the MCU info can be moved to the relevant sections where they are, such as at List of alien races in Marvel Comics.
