Evans' prosthetic jaw

As per this, he wore a prosthetic jaw to cover his beard which he needed for filming Snowpiercer. --Kailash29792 (talk) 08:43, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

"Cast" section not wrapping around the cast photo

On my screen, the cast photo (The Avengers Cast 2010 Comic-Con cropped.jpg) is just a skosh taller than the Downey paragraph. What's happened is, the Evans paragraph has been given an artificial right-margin equal to the photo's default buffering. This leaves a wound of white space under the photo and to the right of the Evans paragraph, that's actually taller than the photo itself! What's happened here? This is the only article on which I've seen this error. — fourthords | =Λ= | 21:28, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

It has to do with Template:Cast list break. I already mentioned this to @Favre1fan93: on his talk page.--TriiipleThreat (talk) 22:02, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
@Fourthords and TriiipleThreat: I believe I have found a solution (see {{Block quote next to floating content}}), but I just need to test this style implementation with {{Cast list break}} and ensure it does not disrupt CLbreak's purpose of complying with MOS:LISTGAP. The next time I have some lengthy time (probably middle of next week), I can take a look at this. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 04:22, 17 June 2017 (UTC)
@Fourthords and TriiipleThreat: All set. Text will now properly wrap around conflicting things (images, infoboxes, etc.). If not visible yet for you, you may need to purge the article for it to update. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:56, 21 June 2017 (UTC)

Iron Man's suit failure in space

Wasn't the suit power knocked out by the EMP from the nuclear blast? Running out of power at that exact moment would have been incredible timing. Besides, nothing that I remember indicates that the suit was magnetically shielded. 66.116.44.106 (talk) 16:56, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

I remember it being a little ambiguous. I revised the wording to a more general "suit loses power". Argento Surfer (talk) 17:35, 14 June 2019 (UTC)

End credits

Why is the end credit section constantly being removed from this pages it is still a scene in the film. Unfortunately there are still people who are yet to watch the film that check here for the plot to the film, they then don't watch the all credits as this article refuses to state that there is an end credit scene. If it is not relevant to the page then why is it part of the film. The plot section is for all scenes from the moment the film starts to the moment it ends and all scenes should be included. Marvelmaniac2909 (talk) 21:47, 17 August 2019 (UTC)

The plot section is for the plot, not individual scene or moment breakdowns. The end credits scene for this film is a fun beat, but it does not add anything to the plot so should not be mentioned in the plot section. - adamstom97 (talk) 22:54, 17 August 2019 (UTC)
If it can be omitted and a reader will still understand the story, then it's not significant to the plot. Argento Surfer (talk) 12:47, 19 August 2019 (UTC)

The film's setting in time

I think the film's setting in time should be discussed, but I'm not sure where. Plot seems like the wrong place to me because the film itself doesn't establish a year (that I recall/noticed). Agents of SHIELD fixed the film in 2012, but Civil War and Spider-Man Homecoming has it firmly established in 2009. Short of expanding the sequel section to include the film's impact on other franchises, I'm not sure where exactly this information would fit. Argento Surfer (talk) 17:35, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

I too agree that the plot is not the appropriate place. Production is probably a good spot, but where exactly, if at all, I'm not sure. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:32, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
The Phase 2 films also assumed that Avengers was in 2012, as did Civil War which broke the idea that Avengers was set a year after all the Phase 1 films, something that Homecoming does not ignore. Perhaps it would be best to discuss all this at the main MCU page since it doesn't really apply to a single film? - adamstom97 (talk) 23:19, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

True! The Marvel Guy36 (talk) 16:47, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

Spider-Man:Homecoming should be given a proper timeline by Marvel & Sony officials. The Marvel Guy36 (talk) 16:51, 29 December 2018 (UTC)

The film is set from May 1 to May 4, 2012. WikiSmartLife (talk) 16:05, 28 August 2019 (UTC)

Non-rs

Showbiz411 is not an RS, per Wikipedia:USERGENERATED and WP:SELFPUB. But it is used as a ref in this article - currently number 85. Making a claim. That (not unusual for this site) that in the next clause is shown to be false. I think it should be deleted, as it is a non-rs. --2603:7000:2143:8500:DDB2:A4E1:CCC1:91F3 (talk) 22:27, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

 Done Removed both statements, since being reportedly filmed in 3D by an unreliable source and being immediately refuted by an actor on Twitter is barely relevant. —El Millo (talk) 22:31, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
Many thanks. 2603:7000:2143:8500:DDB2:A4E1:CCC1:91F3 (talk) 03:17, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Additions to see also section

At the end of the page it lists the three sequels to this film, and then mentions an episode of What If...? that reimagines events of this film. I think it would be helpful to mention that scenes from this film have been revisited in other Marvel productions, including a flashback in the Hawkeye TV series and an altered timeline version in Avengers: Endgame. Maybe add a paragraph about this. 23.84.54.191 (talk) 23:22, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

That's not really what WP:SEEALSO is for. Still, perhaps we could add a link to the first episode of Hawkeye? InfiniteNexus (talk) 06:24, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
I don't think the Hawkeye opening warrants a link here. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 16:28, 25 November 2021 (UTC)
Me neither. We shouldn't include every reference or small recreation of scenes. —El Millo (talk) 16:40, 25 November 2021 (UTC)

Shawarma Post Credits Scene

In the post-credits scene, the Avengers team up to eat shawarma in silence following the battle of New York. Why shouldn't it be added to the plot section of the main article? Marc Raphael Felix (talk) 02:30, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

Per WP:FILMPLOT. it's a joke scene and has not direct affect on the main events. The scene is covered in the production section. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 03:50, 4 November 2020 (UTC)

Sure it's a joke scene. Why does that matter? It's still a scene and all other Marvel movies have their post credit scenes listed on their pages. (talk) 09:52, 3 December 2021 (UTC)

They do if they are relevant to the plot. This one is not. —El Millo (talk) 17:02, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
Because the plot is a summary of the salient information in the movie. The scene isn't. Just becuase "information X" is in "source Y" does not automatically mean it goes in an article, or in a particular section of an article. Nightscream (talk) 21:43, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

consensus on Avengers 5 & 6

[1] Current consensus is to NOT include Kang Dynasty and Secret Wars here because, while they are Avengers franchise films, given the nature of the MCU, they have less correlation to the Avengers films that have released to date.

Where was this discussed? Argento Surfer (talk) 17:41, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

@Argento Surfer: started here, and may have continued elsewhere which I'm checking. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:49, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
