@Rtkat3: Popped over here from X-Men: From the Ashes to copy a source & saw that you've added most of the plot details. MOS:PLOTLENGTH highlights that the various manual of styles suggest plot summaries between 200 and 700 words; WP:NOVELPLOT states 400 to 700 words are usually sufficient for a full-length work (short stories should be the shorter side) while MOS:TVPLOT states no more than 200 words per episode should ideally be presented in a table. In terms of a multi-series comics crossover, I think the main plot should be no more than 700 words with each tie-in reduced to under 200 words. Would you be okay taking the lead on reducing it? I haven't read this crossover so while I could take a shot, I'm assuming you have a better sense of what is most important to keep. Thanks! Sariel Xilo (talk) 22:12, 11 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
If you want it reduced, you need to point out parts that won't be needed. More issues in this storyline will be coming out this week including issue #3. --Rtkat3 (talk) 22:28, 11 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
Television season articles are at under 200 words per episode & novels (which typically have longer/dense plots than comics) are at under 700 so there's definitely a way to figure out how to keep a 5 issue story under 700 words. Just thought you might have thoughts on what plot details are most key! I'll take a look at some reviews and then go BOLD with trimming. Sariel Xilo (talk) 23:24, 11 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
