Your list

edit

@Adamstom.97: this edit summary is hilarious. You created this Jessica Jones list, List of Agent Carter characters, List of Daredevil characters and I'm guessing others. They are well written, great lists, but you set the format and you have been their primary editor. There is no "we" policing these lists, there is you, and you obviously have not heard of WP:3RR. I look forward to your examples of how this format has been established by consensus elsewhere, but in the meantime you should loosen your grip on your pet lists, it's amateurish.— TAnthonyTalk 04:32, 10 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

Wow. What a great way to start a discussion.
There is a small group of basically full-time editors dedicated to expanding and maintaining the literally 100+ Marvel Cinematic Universe articles, with a wider group also consistently involved. I came up with the exact list of characters format that we use for the MCU television series, but it was not implemented until consensus at List of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. characters was reached, something that took over a year, if I am remembering correctly. Now that we have more character lists, which I did create myself, we are using the same format because it is important to us to have consistency across the topic(s) which we hope to one day get to good topic status.
Of course, not everybody is interested in exactly the same things, or to the same degree, and so it turns out that I do in fact do the majority of the editing and upkeep of these character lists. But the reason I have a tight grip on these "pet lists", along with many other articles that were both created by me and by other regular MCU editors, is not for any "amateurish" idea of ownership but because (a) we consistently have to deal with actual amateurish editors who add poorly written and/or trivial fancruft; and (b) we sometimes get editors with good intentions who do not see the greater picture that we are trying to build, and attempt to make changes to formats on one page but not any others without even discussing.
So no, your implication that I am some amateurish editor who thinks he owns all of these articles is not correct. And your assumption that I "obviously have not heard of WP:3RR" is also not correct, as you will see that I reverted your edit only 3 times, no more, and in the edit summaries gave at first a simple reason, then a more detailed one when you asked for it, and then an attempt to both explain what I am saying here and to invite you to come here yourself if you so desired while dealing with your completely unwarranted, rude, and presumptive behaviour.
Now, if you wish to make this change, then present your argument without all the unnecessary accusations and flippancy, and we can have a proper discussion about it. - adamstom97 (talk) 05:02, 10 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
We all have articles we watch and "protect", we all are part of groups of editors that collaborate regularly, and I'm with you that fancruft and all that junk from IP and newbies is a constant issue with high profile and popular shows, comics, etc. So I get you, I am you. However, every list or article has its own needs based on its particular content, and ignoring that for the sake of blind "consistency" is short sighted. I've seen a little of your edit history and talk page, and if you realize it or not, you're a little hot to revert and you have some ownership tendencies. I'm sorry but forcing every edit into a discussion is laughable. I couldn't really care less about the minutae of this list, but I think I showed that you just couldn't stand to see it divert from your format for a hot second, even in this tiny way.— TAnthonyTalk 05:21, 10 January 2016 (UTC)Reply
Seriously, do you want to discuss this or not? I have no wish for blind consistency or to see everything stay in "my format" no matter what, and I don't try to force every edit into a discussion. And yes, I am "a little hot to revert", because at this point I have little patience for the issues I brought up before. If you really don't care about the minutae of this list, then why are you insisting on reverting me and discussing? If you are out to prove some misguided point, then I would ask you to stop wasting my time, because you have definitely not shown that I can't stand to see things divert from my format. If, however, you do want to discuss this, then present your argument for why this change should be made and we can go from there. No matter what you seem to think, I am just an editor who has the best interest of these pages in mind, while all you are doing is trying to pick a fight by being maddening and insulting. - adamstom97 (talk) 06:04, 10 January 2016 (UTC)Reply

@Adamstom.97: All I have to say is can you add an Original character section to the formatting to show which characters are original to the show and weren't taken from the comics. That makes sense right? Fluffyroll11 (talk) 15:04, 5 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
