Excessive template

There doesn't need to be a character template on this page for every character or group Thanos has ever interacted with. Adding excessive amounts for tangential characters (or characters from another company) won't aid readers. Argento Surfer (talk) 19:23, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

@Argento Surfer: I totally agree. On top of that, most secondary Navbox subjects are already called out in the primary Navbox for the character.
I noticed this recently by using "What links here" on minor characters. I thought, "Why would Galactus link to Revanche?" I tried to clean up a couple articles, but I didn't realize how widespread this issue actually is across multiple characters. Some were reverted and some were not. I'm not sure what forum would be appropriate to determine an aggreed-to, cohesive approach to tackling the problem everywhere as opposed to case-by-case, though. From what I've seen so far, this seems like edit-war fodder if there isn't an agreement/vote somewhere to reference. 2pou (talk) 17:44, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

It started last fall, and it seems to have become a bigger problem in the last two or three months. The general rule of thumb is that a template should be on an article if that article is in the template, but some editors have been using that to game the system - by creating a template for every character, there's no limit to how many they can add to an article.

Thanos MCU main article?

I noticed that certain characters in the MCU (such as Iron Man and Thor) have articles dedicated entirely to the MCU iteration of the character. Considering a villain as inconsequential to the MCU as Trevor Slattery has his own page, shouldn't a figure as important to the world and culturally relevant as the MCU Thanos have his own page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Delfino319 (talk • contribs) 22:54, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

I second this notion and also think Thanos needs an MCU page, also considering that MCU Thanos is very much a different character than comic book Thanos. --District9123 (talk) 16:51, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

No arguements here. @Delfino319 and District9123: Go ahead and start one up! -2pou (talk) 21:06, 2 October 2019 (UTC)

@Delfino319 and District9123: I just realized there's a draft here that you can contribute to: Draft:Thanos (Marvel Cinematic Universe) -2pou (talk) 17:12, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

Last ISBN number is wrong, should be : 978-1302905590, That's the ISBN for Thanos Wins.
