			In the Writing §, under "Sitcom influences", it is claimed "... the first episode pays homage to ''The Dick Van Dyke Show'', which ran from the late 1950s to the early 1960s, and was meant to have a general 1950s time period."

			== RFC about what to refer to Wanda Maximoff as ==
	;Episode 5
			{{archive top\|status=Wanda\|result=In this discussion, editors discussed whether to refer to the fictional character Wanda Maximoff by her surname ("Maximoff") or by her given name ("Wanda"). Editors in support of calling her by her first name provided a series of arguments, saying that is the most common name by which the character is referred, that the Misplaced Pages-wide ] states that given names may be used to refer to individuals who share the surname of another individual mentioned in the same article, and that ] to any general guidance relating to the use of surnames to refer to characters. Opposition to the use of the given name focused substantially on a ] among ] participants, and procedurally argued that there was insufficient discussion before the RfC for an RfC to be held. The majority of participants supported the use of "Wanda" in this article, the results of ], but are instead ].

			*'''Wanda''' For real people, policy is very clear to refer to them by their last name opposed to their first name in the majority of situations. However, that policy has never supposed to apply to fictional characters. Sure, we can use it when there isn't a clear common name, but that isn't the case here. The character is referred to as just Wanda all the time and is extremely referred to as just Maximoff. The name of the show is literally '''Wanda'''Vision. The ] is extremely clearly Wanda over Maximoff. There is simply no reason to keep referring to her as Maximoff instead. <span style="color:green;">] (] • ])</span> 14:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

			*'''Wanda''' per ] and ], since Pietro Maximoff is also referenced on this page and because she is consistently called Wanda, almost never Maximoff, in-universe.

			*'''Comment''' – I think we should be more open to not ''always'' using last names. We can still have that general rule of using last names by default, but when it starts to become clear a character is primarily referred to by something other than their last name, we should treat it accordingly. It seems that Wanda is one of those characters, just as Ned and MJ from the ''Spider-Man'' trilogy are, for whom we've already implemented this. This, however, does ''not'' mean we should be checking whether each character has a common name other than their last name every time a new one appears, ''just'' that we should do it when it becomes obvious. Otherwise, it would be too much. —'']'' (]) 01:25, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

	== Future episode articles ==

	Now that's we've essentially gone through all the episodes the press have seen and were able to create articles about, how are we feeling about starting new episodes as mainspace articles right upon release? I'm still of the mindset on Fridays, we should begin any article in the draft space, because I am a bit concerned we'll have unique production/commentary bits immediately upon release to justify the article. Anyone else have strong feelings either way on this? - ] (]) 17:30, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
	:I think it doesn't hurt to start in draftspace, especially if we are going to have less production info from the start. - ] (]) 17:51, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
	::Part of having this discussion is knowing come Friday some one will ''immediately'' start the episode in the mainspace. If we have consensus for this, we can add hidden notes here and try to mitigate the initial creation in the mainspace as much as possible. - ] (]) 18:09, 27 January 2021 (UTC)
	:::Given the teaser released before the Jan 29 episode strongly indicating we might not be advancing a decade, I've none the less started compiling what little remaining info we have for the last 3 decades in my ] for us to use one we know when we're getting those episodes. - ] (]) 01:15, 29 January 2021 (UTC)

	If episode 5 turns out to be set in the 80s for the sitcom portion, we have enough material that we can start an episode article right in the mainspace. All the material is housed ] which can be copied to the article. I'll make a hidden note in the episode table pointing here. - ] (]) 15:15, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

	{{re\|Adamstom.97\|Trailblazer101\|Facu-el Millo}} pinging you all just in case you didn't see my comment above to know material is ready to go for an episode 5 article if the sitcom is the 1980s one. - ] (]) 00:02, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
	:Sounds good to me. ] (]) 01:38, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

	Just stating again, if episode 6 is the Halloween/1990s episode, material is again ready ] to aid an article right upon release. - ] (]) 18:14, 11 February 2021 (UTC)

	== Ratings ==

	has a breakdown of various viewership statistics for the first week of the show's release. There will be nielsen data released at some point as well. There is definitely stuff that can be used in here, but I was wondering where we thought the best place for this would be since it mostly applies to the first two episodes but doesn't differentiate between the two. - ] (]) 20:58, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
	:We can probably create an "Audience viewership" section like the Netflix series to state the data. And yeah, the Nielsen data that will come out soon will probably be very useful. - ] (]) 21:45, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
	:I did just look through the link you provided, and a lot of it seems to be about engagement. While we could use some of that, knowing that Nielsen provides data now, I think it'd be better to wait for that to be released, rather than trying to paint a viewership picture with this information. - ] (]) 21:51, 30 January 2021 (UTC)
	:: some additional viewership data from Parrot, but again, it's just looking at "demand", not really anything concrete when we know Nielsen ratings should be coming at some point. - ] (]) 23:27, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

	Ok so I have a question about the Nielsen ratings. Per the way it is formatted , they say the Nielsen ratings are for the week of Janurary 11-17, and next to each series it gives the total number of episodes available and the minutes. So come the report that will cover the third episode, will the minute data not be technically accurate for ''just'' episode three? Because I'm viewing this as Nielsen tracking minutes watched for ''any'' available episode of a series in that week. That's why they have the separate list for the "acquired" shows that are on available to stream. If this is the case, how do we go about reporting the info? Also separately, should we include a viewership section here on the main page? - ] (]) 16:30, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
	:I don't think they report on specific episodes, just total minutes watched, so it isn't straightforward. I am happy to go with a different approach for future episodes if we think that makes sense. We just have to make sure we explain the method being used to be clear what is being measured. - ] (]) 18:42, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
	::Right, so I guess my point is come the next report, we can't really put the minute views on "Now in Color" as we did for the first two because the data doesn't reflect information just for that episode, unlike this first report which is clearly for the first two episodes, because only two episodes are being measured. That's why I think a section here will be important. - ] (]) 23:27, 13 February 2021 (UTC)
	::Also, . - ] (]) 23:27, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

	== Categories ==

	It may come across as a metaphysical question, but does the fiction actually take place in the 1950s, 1960s, et al.?

	Depending on the answer—which in turn depends on assessing the extent of the time reality bending of the lead character and the extent of what "]" (vs. "]") actually means, I assume—the current categories ]; ]; ]; ] ]; ]; ] may be put into question (other than whatever ] decade the ] is set in).--Asqueladd (]) 03:36, 1 February 2021 (UTC)
	:As of 4 episodes in, we are to believe that, yes, within the Westview anomaly, what's happening is set in those decades, so the categories are fine. Should the reasoning why that is happening in the anomaly be explained, I think we can reevaluate.

	Hi, is it possible to reorder the main cast according to each actor place in the credits? I mean, in the following way: Olsen, Bettany, Parris, Rupp (after Parris per episode 2), Melamed, Peters, Park (after Peters per ep. 5), Dennings, and Hahn (credited last in every episode). This was made on the Marvel Netflix shows articles where there were main actors who appeared later but they are put according to their place on the credits. I'm just asking, I don't know if it's a good idea or really doesn't matter. ] (]) 02:30, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

	:The casting section on this page is currently very inaccurate. This discussion has been started countless times but some people are set on following a guideline that says we are only ever allowed to acknowledge one specific source for the main casting list, ignoring the many other sources that clearly say otherwise. I'm hoping people will stop this once the series is over but until then it seems like a lost cause to try to fix it. ] (]) 02:34, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
	::] exists for exactly this reason, so editors don't come with discussions like this asking for versions of the cast they feel is "correct" or "best". Per that guideline, we follow the order given to use in episode 1, and append any new cast members to the end of the list once they are credited. And for the record, the Marvel Netflix series are formatted in this manner as well, so I don't know where that comment came from. - ] (]) 02:41, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

	:::This is not what I "feel", this is, like I said in my previous comment, what has been proven by basically every other source except this one specific one we are forced to use. In all other media related to the show, in interviews, in the development of the show, in press, etc etc etc, the main cast is said as being Olsen, Bettany, Hahn, Parris, Park, and Dennings. ] (]) 19:28, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
	:::: We follow the primary source because media coverage doesn't always have everything especially when the studios intentionally keep some casting a secret to avoid spoilers. And the cast changes throughout the series, making most secondary sources obsolete. For example, none of the secondary sources included Peters as a main character. So, MOS:TVCAST exists to avoid these debates.— ] 20:56, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

	There are examples. In Daredevil, Ayelet Zurer, Vondi Curtis-Hall, and Rosario Dawson appear after episode 1 but they are credited according to their place on the credits, before Vincent D'Onofrio. The same with Luke Cage: Erik LaRey Harvey and Dawson appear later but they are credited before Alfre Woodard, who appeared first. The same happens with Wil Traval in Jessica Jones, with Ramon Rodriguez, Sacha Dhawan, and Dawson in Iron Fist, and also with Ebon Moss-Bachrach in The Punisher. That's why I am asking for this. ] (]) 14:55, 7 February 2021 (UTC)
	: If that's the case, those are the ones that need changing but I won't get into that bc I don't know the reasoning. The cast billing block for ''WandaVision'' in particular, is constantly changing from episode to episode, which makes any order debatable, and so it's more important than ever to follow MOS:TVCAST.— ] 16:52, 7 February 2021 (UTC)

	:::Yeah, I can understand. But if you count the episode and take the statement of the theme song writers. It's clear there is a 90s episode.

Episode 5 clearly had some full house references which was on until mid 90's. So to claim that episode 6 was late 90's doesn't seem that far fetched. ] (]) 22:59, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

	::::The Dick van Dyke show was a major inspiration for the 50s episode, while that actually aired in the 60s. The Parent Trap reference in the show makes it pretty clear that this one is late 90s/early 00s themed. Also, of course, as stated above, Lopez & Anderson-Lopez state this is the 90s episode. Seems odd to go against that, just because Malcolm in the Middle is the main sitcom reference. ] (]) 23:08, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

	=== Revisiting all decades ===
	I think we need to revisit all the decades for the series and make sure we are being consistent here. I think it is clear that the production considers episodes 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7 to be set in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s, even if the influences and homages in each episode do not necessarily line up with that. For instance, we know the first episodes is a 1950s sitcom but it is primarily influenced by the 1960s series ''The Dick Van Dyke Show''. The sixth episode is obviously influenced by ''Malcolm in the Middle'', but we know that the production considers it to be a 1990s sitcom, and the theme song for the seventh episode is literally called "W-V 2000". I think we have gotten quite mixed up in people's opinions of the allusions, including editors here and reviewers/commentators. My proposal is that we treat the "type/setting of sitcom" and the influences as different things. So in the opening lead paragraph, infobox, plot summary, and development section of each episode we use the decade that we know the production used, and then in the second lead paragraph and writing sections we can give all of the influences that we currently have and just tweak the wording depending on if the influences line up exactly with the production decade or not. That way we are being consistent across all the episodes while still providing everything we know about each one. This will hopefully be a good compromise for those who have been unable to agree on the current format as well. - ] (]) 01:40, 28 February 2021 (UTC)

Neither are main charachters but are mentioned as such because they received main-billing. But no source says they are main charachters... and they are not included in any promotional material. There's a difference between being a main charachter abd getting main billing. Some shows give guest stars/recurring stars main billing if they are played by noteable actors like Fred and Debra. If their charachters were portrayed by C-list actors like the ones playing the mailman and phil jones, they wouldn't have received that kind of billing. I vouch to change it in the main article but keep it like that in the episode articles. Ps, if the loki series will use the same form of billing as WandaVision and Richard E.Grant makes an appearance for one episode, there's a huge chance he will receive the same kind of billing as rupp and Melamed. ] (]) 16:36, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

view · edit Frequently asked questions

Q: Why is the cast section formatted as it is? Specifically, why are there no subsections (Main, Recurring, and Guest) like other TV series articles, and why are Debra Jo Rupp and Fred Melamed in the main bulleted list?
- A: Marvel Studios is approaching their Disney+ series as if they are feature films (see List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series § Series approach and this source) in several ways, including how they credit actors for each episode. Unlike conventional television series, WandaVision does not differentiate series regulars, guest stars, and co-stars. Instead, the series has one cast list for each episode during the credits as well as a main on-end title sequence that gives billing to the series' main actors. To represent this, the WandaVision cast section uses a hybrid approach of WP:TVCAST and WP:FILMCAST. Any actor who appears in the main on-end billing is listed in the section's main bulleted list as if they were part of a film poster's "billing block" per FILMCAST, and they are listed in order of first onscreen credit per TVCAST. Additional actors are noted in prose below the main bulleted list as is done in the MCU film articles, with recurring and guest actors included per TVCAST. This was determined by tracking appearances in the series (see Talk:WandaVision/Archive 3 § Cast breakdown), with four or more appearances considered a recurring role and two or more considered a guest role. See past discussions here, here, and here.

Dick Van Dyke show details

In the Writing §, under "Sitcom influences", it is claimed "... the first episode pays homage to The Dick Van Dyke Show, which ran from the late 1950s to the early 1960s, and was meant to have a general 1950s time period."

The source on this point is unreliable as to airdates, as the original pilot dates from 1960, while the show itself began airing in 1961.

The source, while incorrect about show run dates, does NOT claim that either The Dick Van Dyke Show or WandaVision is meant to represent the 1950s. To claim this is Original Research. Chaswmsday (talk) 00:47, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

The first episode is set in the 50s, and the first two episodes were inspired by the Dick Van Dyke Show, so the content isn't entirely inaccurate, but it's already included elsewhere. —El Millo (talk) 03:24, 8 August 2022 (UTC)

RFC about what to refer to Wanda Maximoff as

WANDA In this discussion, editors discussed whether to refer to the fictional character Wanda Maximoff by her surname ("Maximoff") or by her given name ("Wanda"). Editors in support of calling her by her first name provided a series of arguments, saying that is the most common name by which the character is referred, that the Misplaced Pages-wide manual of style states that given names may be used to refer to individuals who share the surname of another individual mentioned in the same article, and that occasional exceptions may apply to any general guidance relating to the use of surnames to refer to characters. Opposition to the use of the given name focused substantially on a local consensus among MCU task force participants, and procedurally argued that there was insufficient discussion before the RfC for an RfC to be held. The majority of participants supported the use of "Wanda" in this article, the results of discussions are not determined by voting, but are instead ascertained by examining the arguments in light of relevant policies and guidelines. And, through that lens, this discussion obtained consensus to refer to Wanda Maximoff as "Wanda", rather than as "Maximoff". (non-admin closure) — Red-tailed hawk _(nest) 00:37, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page. No further edits should be made to this discussion.

Should Wanda Maximoff be referred to as Wanda or Mazimoff? JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 14:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Wanda For real people, policy is very clear to refer to them by their last name opposed to their first name in the majority of situations. However, that policy has never supposed to apply to fictional characters. Sure, we can use it when there isn't a clear common name, but that isn't the case here. The character is referred to as just Wanda all the time and is extremely referred to as just Maximoff. The name of the show is literally WandaVision. The WP:COMMONNAME is extremely clearly Wanda over Maximoff. There is simply no reason to keep referring to her as Maximoff instead. JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 14:50, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
Speedy close The RfC initiator has made zero attempts to discuss this matter beforehand, as mandated by WP:RFCBEFORE. Secondly, there is existing WP:LOCALCONSENSUS to use last names on MCU articles when referring to characters for consistency, as documented at WP:MCU#Miscellaneous. InfiniteNexus (talk) 15:55, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

It's been nearly a year since the last activity on this talk page. Starting a regular conversation wouldn't have gone anywhere. That local consensus is not policy and has never been universally applied. In fact, Wanda Maximoff (Marvel Cinematic Universe) uses Wanda over Maximoff to refer to the character, and has so for over a year. JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 16:55, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

There are a handful of editors watching this article still, so presuming a regular discussion would not receive responses does not hold up. It is bad form to go against the local consensus at WP:MCU#Miscellaneous. The MCU character articles have not been as closely watched for following the local consensus of the MCU taskforce. and that article refers to other characters such as Rogers and Stark by their surnames, so it should be consistent in that approach, as is the case with other MCU articles, and should follow this article's approach as an extension of that. Trailblazer101 (talk) 17:36, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
No, no, no. The Wanda character article uses Wanda because Pietro has the same last name and is extensively discussed on that page. This is done in accordance with policy, and WP:MCU#Miscellaneous touches on that as well. InfiniteNexus (talk) 18:16, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

Wanda per MOS:SAMESURNAME and Misplaced Pages:WikiProject_Film/Marvel_Cinematic_Universe_task_force#Miscellaneous, since Pietro Maximoff is also referenced on this page and because she is consistently called Wanda, almost never Maximoff, in-universe. I'm baffled by the argument above that the MCU Task Force consensus would support using her last name - she hits both the criteria that it says would require a first name (possible confusion with her brother, and her last name is rarely used in-universe, presumably for that same reason.) --Aquillion (talk) 18:44, 29 May 2023 (UTC)
Comment – I think we should be more open to not always using last names. We can still have that general rule of using last names by default, but when it starts to become clear a character is primarily referred to by something other than their last name, we should treat it accordingly. It seems that Wanda is one of those characters, just as Ned and MJ from the Spider-Man trilogy are, for whom we've already implemented this. This, however, does not mean we should be checking whether each character has a common name other than their last name every time a new one appears, just that we should do it when it becomes obvious. Otherwise, it would be too much. —El Millo (talk) 01:25, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
It might become troublesome if this list continues to grow... InfiniteNexus (talk) 22:00, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
How so? JDDJS (talk to me • see what I've done) 17:06, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
I mean, as more and more characters appear in the films, yes, the list will likely grow with time, but that's reasonable and expected. What we wouldn't want to happen is for wandering editors to just start creating RfCs left and right about any character they think "actually" has had their first name used 51 times and their last name "only" used 49 times. I think the consensus we established still prevents that from happening and this change from "Maximoff" to "Wanda" is still within that consensus. —El Millo (talk) 17:36, 2 June 2023 (UTC)
Wanda because she is not a real person and is much more frequently called "Wanda" rather than "Mazimoff". Also there's a bonus point for disambiguating with Pietro Mazimoff (aka Quicksilver). CactiStaccingCrane (talk) 10:16, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

Wanda, per previous comments, "Wanda" is more commonly used AND the character needs to be differentiated from her brother who has the same last name. JoseJan89 (talk) 09:26, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

The Vision

In the info about Vision, it was written that Bettany plays an original version. Can you define the term original? I do not think it means created for the show since White Vision also appears in the comics. JEDIMASTER2008 (talk) 03:44, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

We state the original character which refers to the character described in the first sentence of his description. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 23:53, 7 June 2023 (UTC)

I do not get it JEDIMASTER2008 (talk) 03:24, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

It is referring to the original version of the Vision, who died in Infinity War and has now been rebuilt as White Vision. InfiniteNexus (talk) 03:51, 9 June 2023 (UTC)

Good Topic

The accolades article is getting close to becoming a FL, which should make WandaVision eligible to become a GT. The topic would include this article, the episodes, and the accolades for sure. Should that be all, or should any of these also be included?

Agatha All Along
Marvel Cinematic Universe
List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series
List of Marvel Cinematic Universe television series actors (Marvel Studios) (including this because I know the former films GT included the actors article)

I have the basics set up in my in my sandbox to prep for the nomination, not that I have to be the one to nominate since others were more involved overall with getting the articles to GA. The blurb, or whatever it's called, probably needs touched up since I just copied parts of the lead from this article for the most part, so anyone can feel free to edit that to clean it up. ZooBlazer 23:50, 9 November 2023 (UTC)

Agatha All Along, yes. The MCU articles, no. There might be merit to having the Wanda and Vision character articles in this, but that's hard to say since they are franchise characters and not solely related to this series. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 17:07, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

I was originally thinking the character articles may be needed, but I noticed GTs for things like the Supernatural seasons don't include their main characters even though they have wiki articles, but I'm not sure if seasons of a show is the same as a whole miniseries in the GT process. ZooBlazer 17:17, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

My argument though say with your Supernatural example, their character articles apply to that series only. Wanda and Vision's apply to the entire MCU, not just their WandaVision appearances. So I'd lean towards we probably don't need to include them. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:20, 10 November 2023 (UTC)

Makes sense to me. I think MCU characters would probably be best as the main articles of a GT/FT. Like Iron Man and Thor, who both have multiple movies, plus Iron Man has an article for his armor and Thor has one for his weapons. Vision may be good to save until after Vision Quest releases (obviously both articles would need to eventually be GAs) then include this article for a smaller GT. ZooBlazer 06:12, 11 November 2023 (UTC)

The awards are now a FL, so we can probably now go through the GT process. I know @adamstom97 and @Favre1fan93 were heavily involved in getting the articles to GAs, so you guys should have first choice of nominating or not. I'm willing to do it if neither of you want to. ZooBlazer 00:51, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

Nominated. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:05, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

A reviewer will likely bring up the lack of an image. Since WandaVision images can't be used due to being non-free, File:Elizabeth Olsen & Paul Bettany (48469160767).jpg is probably the best option, at least that I've come across. ZooBlazer 18:22, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

I don't necessarily know if images are needed. They can be helpful, but if it's an image for an image's sake, maybe not. But yes, that one is good to use if it is needed. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 18:34, 4 December 2023 (UTC)
