relevant?

[edit]

This article seems a little niche. Is it relevant enough to have it's own page? Farleigheditor (talk) 13:47, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Farleigheditor, I see what you mean. I guess you could say this is a niche topic, but I'd argue that this page has value due to the number of LGBTQ shows on Netflix (She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts, Voltron: Legendary Defender, Disenchantment, Big Mouth, BoJack Horseman, The Hollow, Twelve Forever, Castlevania, Super Drags, 3Below: Tales of Arcadia, DreamWorks Dragons, The Dragon Prince, Hoops, along with upcoming series (Q-Force and DeadEndia)). I had considered, when originally creating the page, of including live-action shows, shown on shows like List of bisexual characters in television, List of lesbian characters in television, List of transgender characters in television, and List of gay characters in television, but I thought that would be too broad. --Historyday01 (talk) 15:40, 28 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Tyler Labine‘s quotes on Voltron too simplified

[edit]

I think quotes from TylerLabine’s Instagram have been too simplified from the original quotes and paint an unfair picture of him, as well as not providing enough context as to what happened behind-the-scenes of the show. In his defense of the executive producers, Tyler Labine stated that "what is not real and what will all fall by the wayside in due time is all the unwarranted hate and vitriol that the dark side of this fandom has let seep into this precious world. THAT is all just noise and I refuse to listen." He also said, in regard to Shiro's epilogue in Season 8, that the "powers that be and people in control aren’t always free to do things the way they want. There is always someone more powerful with lore control keep the gates shut. Just remember that next time you decide that the creators of this show didn’t care about the fandom. I assure they cared more than anybody. Fact." Anyway just putting my thoughts here. Max1057 (talk) 01:25, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I mean, if you want to summarize what he said better, go ahead. I only reduced it because I thought his quote was too long and seemed a bit unbalanced to include a big quote from him. That was my reasoning at least. --Historyday01 (talk) 02:30, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well it doesn’t have to be the whole comment, I was just suggesting that it provide more context then is currently there. I’m sure someone smarter then me can figure it out. Max1057 (talk) 02:38, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well, pointing it out is the first step! As I've learned from my editing on here, everything on this site is fluid, meaning that nothing is set in stone and pages ca be changed if needed, including this one. --Historyday01 (talk) 04:22, 11 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
