Merger with Iron Man's armor

User:Dylanvt proposed this after User:Nightscream declined a PROD. A quick glance at the two articles indicates to me that 1) the material at the armor article is not adequately covered here and 2) the character article is already too laden with in-universe material to make a merge practical. I oppose the merger. In addition, I have been asked to help improve the armor article by User:Penguin7812, and my advice was for him to convert the prose at the armor article into a table that shows the armor name, it's first appearance, a brief not if there's something special about it, and a reference. Argento Surfer (talk) 18:11, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

I proposed merging the armor article into this article, and I would add a further stipulation that the armor article be vastly reduced. Almost 100% of the content in that article is in-universe and lacks citations to third-party sources. Dylanvt (talk) 18:22, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

• Iron Man's armor in other media should probably be considered at this time as well, since it wouldn't make sense to have that stand alone if the main armor article gets merged. Argento Surfer (talk) 18:42, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

I'm against the idea. The merger would just overflow with information and make it unreadable. The armors have enough potential to stand as its own article just as a list. Perhaps we can recreate the article to be more fitting.Penguin7812 (talk) 19:43, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Oppose. The In other Media page should be merged but not the main page. But I am one who felt that the Spider-Man’s power and equipment (or at least an separate article on his web-shooters and Costumes) and Superman’s power should have stayed too. So maybe my opinion shouldn’t matter since they were deleted. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 20:07, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

But there is no denying that the article is excessive. It needs a trim badly. Jhenderson ⁷⁷⁷ 20:09, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

Oppose - I also oppose the merge. @Argento Surfer: and @Jhenderson777: are right about their claims. If the info on the armors are to be trimmed, the important information about them must be spared. --Rtkat3 (talk) 20:10, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

• Oppose merging, but I note that Iron Man's armor in other media also has large amounts of unsourced material. Perhaps if both articles on Iron Man's armor are reduced to what is properly sourced, they could be merged together into a single article of reasonable length. bd2412 T 20:25, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

• I'd support this. The "in other media" description doesn't work for me because it assumes the reader will know that means "non-comic media". Argento Surfer (talk) 20:37, 8 May 2019 (UTC)

• Oppose merger as per above, as it is one of the most notable non-character fictional elements in comic books and related media. BOZ (talk) 22:42, 9 May 2019 (UTC)

Since the consensus is against the merger, I will proceed and remove the merger template now. Penguin7812 (talk) 05:11, 15 May 2019 (UTC)

I'll do this one. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:55, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Comments

Firstly, congratulations on taking this from a 180,000 byte indisciplined hulk to a lithe 67,000 byte machine in a few days: a transformation as remarkable as anything in any comic book.

• The publication history and characterization are admirably comprehensive. I'm unclear why "Armor" should not be treated as one of the "themes and motifs", since, while obviously important, it is clearly both a running theme and an Iron Man motif. Perhaps it would make sense to promote "Themes and motifs" to be a top-level chapter, with subsections for "Politics", "Technology", and "Armor", or something along those lines.
  • The thought process here is that it was originally a section for "powers, abilities, and equipment" or something like that as is often included in superhero articles. The abilities section was mostly about his personality and role as a businessman, so that type of info was better suited for characterization. Then his only "powers" were tied to the armor, which just made it one "armor" section. I could definitely see it going under themes if you think that's a better spot for it. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
    • Yes please.
      • Done. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 00:55, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
• The heading "Personality and motivations" is interesting, well-written, and well-sourced, and in a way it does tie into 20th century technological progress and politics, so it isn't just an in-universe view. But what I am not seeing much of in the article is a discussion of the Iron Man imagery and symbolism (I don't just mean the graphics) and its place in society, pace the very brief paragraph on "Cultural impact and legacy": in other words, the view from outside. Obvious concerns to the ignorant outsider would be issues of sexism, racism, and American nationalism; and even the question of Iron Man's impact on the Superhero (and his place in the American monomyth?) does not get much coverage: in every case, depending on the available sources.
  • I feel like personality and themes generally cover these aspects of his character. I tried to find more sources about the influence of the character on fiction, but those were harder to come by. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
    • This is prima facie surprising, but it may be that the discussions are of action heroes more generally, so that it would be a part/whole error to rely on those discussions in this specific context.
      • Yeah, this is more or less what I found. It's easy to find coverage of Marvel heroes in general, especially in relation to their film appearances, but a bit harder to separate out specific individual characters without inserting hints of original research and interpretation. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 17:38, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Small details

• In the "Armor" section, "Extremis" is sometimes in italics, sometimes not. Is there a reason for this?
  • The title of the story is italicized, the fictional virus is not. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
• "James Rhodes", "Franklin Richards", "Radicalism", "Sean Chen", and "Gerry Duggan" all link to dab pages.
  • Fixed. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

• One small thing: the "Abilities" list in the Infobox is a bulleted list at 2 levels. All the other lists in the infobox are plain lists using <br/>, which causes less indentation. Perhaps the first level of the "Abilities" list might use the unbulleted format.
  • I've cleaned up the infobox by using Template:ubl and trimming minor details. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 17:36, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Images

• The artwork images have NFUR licenses. The NFURs for the two Tales of Suspense images seem very abbreviated; I'm not an expert on such things but it does look as if they might be challenged.
  • Fixed. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
• The Downey photograph appears to be correctly licensed on Commons.

• The Bleeding Edge Armor image would be worth making a little wider as the individual frames are quite small.
  • Fixed. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC)

Sources

• I am not well placed to undertake a source review for this article, but it certainly looks well-cited. The spot-checks I tried all worked out fine.

Summary

• This is a fine article, interesting, authoritative, and informative.

Extended content

Still, I feel that it would be much improved by a scholarly and critical view "from outside", a discussion of the sociological aspects of Iron Man; and indeed it could fairly be argued that this is essential, one of the main points about the character. I look forward to seeing a section on this, and to seeing the article at GA. Chiswick Chap (talk) 17:44, 6 September 2023 (UTC) Chiswick Chap, I'm not sure what specifically I should be looking for here. The personality of the character and the themes that the character is used to explore are both already covered. Is there a significant omission in those? I've addressed all other points above. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:12, 6 September 2023 (UTC) Thought I'd been very plain. Well, the article needs to cover discussion of the character's cultural, sociological and political implications, as I indicated with named links to lists if sources on the aspects that sprang to mind and are confirmed by the numerous sources there. Chiswick Chap (talk) 20:11, 6 September 2023 (UTC) My understanding of "cultural, sociological and political implications" is what's written in the second paragraph of "personality and motivations", the first paragraph of "themes and motifs", and the paragraph under "cultural impact and legacy". Are we using different definitions? Thebiguglyalien (talk) 20:40, 6 September 2023 (UTC) We are drifting away from consensus here, not towards it. What the article does not contain, in any quantity, is analysis of these things. Dr X stated in 19xx that Iron Man exemplified unthinking sexism, Prof Y in 19yy that it was racist, to which Marvel responded by changing him in 19mm by doing such-and-such, only for feminist F in 20ff to assert that this was just window-dressing and that Iron Man's armor represented A, B, and C, and politician P in 20pp to state that ... in short, a concise summary of the cut and thrust of debate, the positions taken, the dates, the scholarly reasons given, characters to which he's been compared. Chiswick Chap (talk) 00:58, 7 September 2023 (UTC) I disagree for a few reasons. First, I think you're overestimating the prominence of Iron Man related discourse in politics and academia, especially when we're considering comic book Iron Man as opposed to Downey's film portrayal. When Marvel made changes, it was generally a response to letters to the editor or to the general American political climate, both of which are mentioned in the article. Iron Man was not a well-known character until 2008, well after his character was modernized. Second, I'm generally skeptical of articles that use "Person X said [controversial opinion]" when Person X is not one of the main people involved with the topic. As far as I'm concerned, if it's a novel opinion from one random commentator that needs to be attributed in-text, then it probably doesn't warrant inclusion per WP:WEIGHT. And third, whether intentionally or not, it looks like you're asking for a thumb on the scale to favor a decidedly negative POV. It seems like we have very different ideas of what the article should look like. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 01:45, 7 September 2023 (UTC) I see we aren't going to agree here, so let's agree to differ. Chiswick Chap (talk) 07:35, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Reflecting on the discussion, I'm concerned about your "negative POV" remark. You are of course right that neutrality and balance are required. However, Iron Man has certainly come in for some criticism along the lines I've indicated, and the article is at the moment unremittingly positive, which is unbalanced in the other direction. I do not favour "Criticism" sections, as inherently unbalanced, but the article does require at least a brief mention that people have made hostile comments about the superhero for multiple reasons. You can further balance this with a statement that Marvel have repeatedly adjusted the character to soften his image, or whatever. Chiswick Chap (talk) 09:05, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

I read over the article again, and I identified one point where there seemed to be an omission of negative coverage, so I added a couple sentences to the "cultural impact and legacy" section. If the article is written in a positive manner, then I'll gladly fix it if there's any point where I used laudatory language instead of neutral language. But I'm not going to use a POV to draw a source.

Thank you, that's certainly an improvement. Nobody is asking you to put the cart before the horse; there is ample reliable evidence that this superhero, like the rest, has attracted criticism from multiple directions at different times.

The article currently covers that he was created to be "unlikable", that his character was changed as a direct response to the anti-war movement, that the character's politics were debated in the letters to the editor column, that Marvel used him as a pro-American pro-capitalist propaganda piece, that his anti-communist politics were dropped in favor of generic liberalism to avoid political controversy, that he is associated with a playboy image that sometimes veered into "belligerence, negligence, and misogyny", that his role in Civil War was seen as villainous, and that early portrayals of Soviets and of the Mandarin in Iron Man comics were based in racist tropes. I included these because they're the points that are supported by a general search for sources without explicitly seeking out positive or negative coverage. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 17:35, 7 September 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for the explanation. I find the coverage uncomfortably close to unbalanced, not by lavish praise or actual denial but by smoothing out anything that might begin to sound negative with the briefest of mentions, while the positive aspects are covered in detail. "Seeking out [both] positive [and] negative coverage" could be described as a duty for any Wikipedia editor on any topic. But you are certainly correct that both sides are now touched upon, so I will say per the GA Criteria that "the main points" are now covered. Chiswick Chap (talk) 12:31, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

Inclusion of trivia

Mussharraf Hossen Shoikot, you need to provide reliable sources to demonstrate that information is significant enough for inclusion. If characters such as 1872 Iron Man and Iron Maniac are not mentioned in any sources outside of the comics, then they're irrelevant and should not be mentioned in the article at all. You're currently giving them disproportionate weight by adding them. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 18:45, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

while this might be valid for 1872 version, iron maniac becomes significant on the count of the iron man which was evil or villainous and the end counts as a what if story where iron man is at end of life or dying. if mentioning strictly in secondary sources such as comic book review sites and or documentary books regarding comics is required then the vast majority of alternative versions of comic characters would have to be removed from wikipedia and that would make articles on comic characters not acknowledging that any alternative versions exist. would not that be the case? what makes the 2 versions before my inclusion significant and why the source stating them makes them significant? Mussharraf Hossen Shoikot (talk) 18:58, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Significance on Wikipedia is based on the sources. We don't decide what to add and then find sources for it; that's writing the article backward. We look at the sources and we add what they say. We don't get to just decide that "he's evil" or "he's dying" automatically makes something significant. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:08, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

what is your source of significance for alternate versions of any comic character? Mussharraf Hossen Shoikot (talk) 19:17, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

That they're covered in reliable sources beyond their appearances in the comic book stories. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:19, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

what are the reliable sources for alternate versions of any comic character? comic book review sites and or documentary books? if so, why not remove alternate versions entirely? how many alternate versions of most characters have secondary mentions? Mussharraf Hossen Shoikot (talk) 19:33, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

There's no obligation or requirement that alternate versions be included. Wikipedia is a summary of reliable sources. Comic book characters don't get an exemption from this. Thebiguglyalien (talk) 19:38, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Biographical Extension Edit:

Change: Add a detailed section on Tony Stark's childhood, education, and early career, including his upbringing in Long Island, New York, his attendance at MIT, and his early achievements in technology and engineering.

Proposed Edit: A new section entitled "Early Life and Education" will be added to the Wikipedia page to provide a comprehensive overview of Tony Stark's formative years. This section will delve into Stark's upbringing in Long Island, New York, where he was born into the affluent Stark family. Details about his parents, particularly his father Howard Stark, a prominent industrialist and inventor, will be included to contextualize Tony's early influences.

The narrative will then shift to Stark's academic pursuits, highlighting his exceptional intelligence and passion for technology. It will be noted that Stark attended the prestigious Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he studied engineering and computer science. This period of his life will be explored to showcase Stark's early achievements and contributions to the field, possibly including any groundbreaking projects or inventions he may have developed during his time at MIT.

Furthermore, emphasis will be placed on Stark's entrepreneurial endeavors during his early career. As a young prodigy in the field of technology and engineering, Stark will be depicted as having founded or played a significant role in the development of Stark Industries, the multinational conglomerate founded by his father. Details about Stark's innovative projects, business ventures, and technological advancements during this period will be included to illustrate his rise to prominence in the business world.
