Mentioning the history
Someone thought it better to leave viewers guessing than to give a brief summary of what is solid.
To prevent a repeat, I have added a few. --GwydionM (talk) 12:26, 20 November 2018 (UTC)
- There were historical notes at the beginning of the mixed with the narrative description of the plot. In other words, the article was describing historical details in the Plot summary so, fiction and fact were completely mixed and it made no sense. I removed that paragraph. The historical basis and discrepancies would be useful if moved to the Historical section.Kckid (talk) 07:17, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
Season/Series 4
The last mention of Last Kingdom on Futon Critic is season 3.--Georgia Army Vet Contribs Talk 02:36, 29 November 2018 (UTC)
Removals for accusations of bias
I don't see it - everyone has bias - these are just reporting what the reaction to the series has been - from that perspective. I like the series - but these people have a point. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:27, 16 April 2019 (UTC)
Could we get a mod in here to arbitrate? I think it's plain as day that the sources this guy or gal is using are biased and he's trying to construct a controversy where none is reflected in neutral sources about the show. 2601:197:4401:B682:2584:8416:13D5:E58C (talk) 01:46, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
- Where there is a controversy - all it need are sources, surely. They are reliable source too. :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 09:19, 22 May 2019 (UTC)
- The controversy also needs to have some sort of notability or debate. This one doesn't, it's one opinion piece and a blog.Bledwith (talk) 17:05, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- Generally, there are no mods arbitrating the content of articles unless someone notices a violations of Wikipedia policies. Like abusive language or vandalizing articles. Also, this is the "Talk" page. If people want to debate, this is where you get to try that.Kckid (talk) 07:22, 26 October 2021 (UTC)
Religious controversy
Does the section on religious controversy really need to be in this article? There's no notable conversation continuing about this beyond a single article in the Catholic herald and a couple of blog posts. This section is giving undue weight to a discussion that really barely exists.
I've edited the section to more closely mirror what the sources actually say but I really don't see the value of it in the wider context of the article. Bledwith (talk) 13:44, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- Pinging @Kevinalewis: for more of their thoughts about this issue. Sebastian James what's the T? 14:57, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
- On further reflection if the "conversation" is that limited - get rid of the section! :: Kevinalewis : (Talk Page)/(Desk) 08:48, 26 June 2019 (UTC)
Broken Languages link that cannot be fixed
The link to the German page points to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrian_Bouchet yet when editing the wikidata, the correct link to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Kingdom_(Fernsehserie) is shown. I'm inexperienced with editing these pages, can someone else fix this or report a bug? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 31.16.6.124 (talk) 16:02, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
Map
Can we get a map of the series and where the locations are? 2601:58C:4202:E600:9002:8D66:408A:7623 (talk) 05:22, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
"Æ" and "Ae"
Some names use "Æ" while others use "Ae". Might it be better that only one form be used? If so, which one? John Link (talk) 16:06, 19 March 2022 (UTC)
Historical background
The article states: "The main events of the reign of Alfred the Great and his heirs are well recorded, and a number of men called Uhtred ruled from Bamburgh Castle". In fact, there was just one Uhtred who ruled the castle,Uhtred of Bamburgh, see Rulers of Bamburgh. Oddeivind (talk) 09:10, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
