Would adding some videos from movies make this look and feel better?

I personally feel that it's better when you see things rather than try visualizing it. Because not everyone can visualize everything in the same manner we want them to visualize. For example , while describing a fight scene , it's better to put up a video rather than writing it. I personally feel it's difficult to read and visualize at the same time.

You won't be able to find a video that has an acceptable copyright license. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:45, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spidey IS a martial artist

Why does Spider-Man's martial skills keep getting deleted from the powers and abilities section? He isn't a dumb brute. He actually developed his own fighting style, "the Way of the Spider", during the Dan Slott comics. Is this one of those "Spider-Man is [insert random thing here] in a comic book, but not as a character" things? Leader Vladimir (talk) 21:34, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I think, if you have a reliable source, you could include this information in the text of the article with a reference and be justified in adding it to the category. Rray (talk) 21:52, 21 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

You know, I've read some comic books about how Superman mastered various Kryptonian martial arts -- I remember him using a move called the "Klenarian muscle lock" in an issue from the 1970s. He also learned how to box from Muhammad Ali. But we don't describe him as a martial artist or amateur boxer based on this because it isn't a notable aspect of the character. LOL, I just saw that you added that information to the Superman article, too, after I wrote this. Sigh. Rray (talk) 13:11, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it's the truth, isn't it? Leader Vladimir (talk) 21:31, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Truth isn't the criterion for inclusion; notability is. I'd suggest that Spidey being a martial artist (or Superman being an amateur boxer) is a trivial aspect of the character, as opposed to Batman or Shang-Chi, where it's a notable aspect of the character. Rray (talk) 00:06, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

So, that's it? We're not gonna include them simply because these particular aspects of these characters only come into the forefront here and there? Leader Vladimir (talk) 03:20, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The question isn't whether these aspects come into the forefront here and there. The question is whether these aspects are trivial or notable. I think Spidey's status as a martial artist is about as notable as Superman's status as an amateur boxer, but I'm interested in other opinions or coverage in reliable sources. Rray (talk) 11:30, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If the character's martial arts skills were routinely mentioned then perhaps. I can't remember the last time they were brought up outside of the story that introduced them. I'd also debate the use of the word "Master" in describing his skills. For the moment, it's not an important enough aspect of the character to appear in the infobox. --Killer Moff- ill advisedly sticking his nose in since 2011 (talk) 11:50, 24 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]
