Adding the MCU portal to the "see also" section

In an earlier version of this outline, under the see also section there was a link to the MCU portal. It was removed by @*Treker: in this edit, with the reason given being "Already linked." However, the only other link to the portal that I can find is at the bottom of the page in the MCU nav footer. I propose that the portal be added back to the "see also" section, keeping with the pattern shown in other outlines, including:

I recognize that this creates a second link to the portal, but given how hidden the first one is, I believe that the inclusion of the portal under the "see also" section is more important than the desire to ensure that links are not needlessly repeated. Any thoughts? --DannyS712 (talk) 02:40, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

I don't have an issue with it having been included. I don't know why Treker removed it. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 15:49, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Spider-Man: Far From Home

‘’Spider-Man: Far From Home’’ is not the beginning of Phase 4, but rather the end of Phase 3. Not sure how to change it on this page but somebody please do so. Panarain (talk)

I believe the table on this page is auto-extracted from the tables on List of Marvel Cinematic Universe films, so the place to correct it is that page, not here.
Also, you'll need to provide a reliable source that confirms that it's part of Phase Three. There should be usable references that you can just copy-and-paste from Spider-Man: Far From Home. --157.131.246.136 (talk) 03:13, 16 June 2019 (UTC)

When did this stop being an outline and just turn into a copy of the MCU main article?

This page is no easier to naviage or read than the main Marvel Cinematic Universe article. I thought outlines were supposed to look like Outline of LGBT topics.★Trekker (talk) 11:06, 23 April 2019 (UTC)

I would argue that this one is easier to read than that one. A few tables are much more simple and clear than a big list of hyperlinks. - adamstom97 (talk) 08:34, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
Disagree. This is no longer an outline at all, it's just a regular list now, which is fine I guess but not how an outline is supposed to be.★Trekker (talk) 12:02, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
What do you mean it is no longer an outline? It literally outlines the key points of the MCU without any of the details! - adamstom97 (talk) 21:37, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
Outlines are simple lists. Look at any other single outline on Wikipedia.★Trekker (talk) 14:51, 21 September 2019 (UTC)

Upcoming Films

Can someone add a "Future" section or "Unannounced Phase" section to the Upcoming Films table? There is Captain America 4 [1], Blade [2], Deadpool 3 [3]. Flipper13130 (talk) 18:10, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

These films can be seen at List of Marvel Cinematic Universe films#Future. Once they are added to Marvel/Disney's release schedule they will be added to the table, but for now they are just in development and should not be listed with the confirmed films. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:58, 12 June 2021 (UTC)
Why are the shows that are just in development (like Echo) present in the shows table, but not the movies like Blade? --Caciulacdlac (talk) 17:17, 10 August 2021 (UTC)

References

Why do we not include the movie duration as a column in the list of movies table as well?

I feel like this is one of the crucial information that people do look up (at least I do), including it in the table can help people find it easier. Syed Ahmed Qasim (talk) 17:25, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

What encyclopaedic use is there for comparing the runtimes of the different films? Most of them are basically the same length. - adamstom97 (talk) 21:58, 13 August 2021 (UTC)

Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special

Isn't Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special in filming now? Marvelouseditor6651 (talk) 18:56, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

It hasn't started. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 20:00, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

Updates in Inspired Media Section

Shouldn't we also include:

A Fan's Guide to Ms. Marvel

and

Director by Night

and in later times, similar docu releases which are similar to Legends and Assembled Syed Ahmed Qasim (talk) 07:04, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

As those are both for a singular release and not a collection of documentaries like Legends and Assembled, they should not be included in the tables and only as prose in the relevant articles for them. Trailblazer101 (talk) 13:52, 7 November 2022 (UTC)

Update in Digital Series Table and Assembled Docuseries Table

Can someone please edit these tables and make their width as the page size. Rest of the tables in the whole article look great, except these two specific ones. I am unable to do so because of lack of skill. Syed Ahmed Qasim (talk) 10:11, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Assembled's table I adjusted. The digital series doesn't need to be full width. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:16, 17 November 2022 (UTC)
Could you please elaborate why it doesn't need to be full width? Syed Ahmed Qasim (talk) 05:50, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
For the character size of each content, a full length table will introduce unnecessary white space. As the table is created here and not transcluded from elsewhere, we can just set it to auto size itself. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:32, 18 November 2022 (UTC)
Why are we not doing the same for the I Am Groot table or the Television specials tables, or any other for that matter, like Team Thor Syed Ahmed Qasim (talk) 12:42, 19 November 2022 (UTC)
As stated, those are transcluded here from other articles. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:25, 19 November 2022 (UTC)

One-Shots and I Am Groot Phases

Why don't we write the Phases names on the One-Shots, I Am Groot, Team Thor. If we see by their release order, we can clearly identify which phases they fall in, and are also canon (except Team Thor) Syed Ahmed Qasim (talk) 08:04, 28 November 2022 (UTC)

Because we don't have any confirmation or evidence that they're part of a Phase, so labeling them as such would be WP:OR. InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:53, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
