TLDR: The user wanted to move the mention of his Discord role to be mentioned as his most well known role along with Star Trek's Q, but the other users did not agree. Do you believe that this edit was justified? Yes or no? I'm looking forward to the discussion. This edit caused quite the discord...

Q > Frank Simmons > Eugene > voice acting
Simple as. The wikipedia is atrocious for not having ANY mention of his TV roles outside of Q however, but this spamming emphasis on behalf of a voice acting role needs to stop.

So Frank Simmons and Eugene should be above a role that is orders of magnitude more popular than them?

What's wrong with MLP? Its a fun cartoon enjoyable for all ages. There are interviews from the MLP staff where they specifically said it was made for all ages to enjoy, and that shows in how fun the show is to watch. Have you ever seen the show or are you just making assumptions? It's a fun show, regardless of how girly it appears from the outside. Adults liking MLP is no different from adults liking Spongebob or Disney. Unless you want to argue that its wrong for adults to watch any kids cartoons at all. MLP fans were the last real online counterculture. Everything since then has been corporatized rebellion. You mock bronies now, but you'll be licking Disney boots next

Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.

Isn't Discord obviously his 2nd most popular role?

You can say "obviously" but no one else in discussions saw it that way. Probably for the same reason search volume doesn't necessarily apply, a small dedicated fanbase inflating the role's importance.
Basically, it's a kid's cartoon with a secondary audience of pedophiles, and unless if you can get more people to say they agree in a discussion it doesn't matter. Notoriety is hard to measure and this is how they deal with that, one guy saying it's obvious means nothing.

I AM NOT CRAZY! I am not crazy! I know it's his second most important role! I knew it was number 2. Right after Q from Star Trek. As if I could ever make such a mistake. Never. Never! I just - I just couldn't prove it. He - he reverted my edit, he even wrote a warning on my profile. You think this is something? You think this is bad? This? This chicanery? He's done worse. That discussion page! Are you telling me that there were that many people opposed to my edit? No! He orchestrated it! FlightTime! He defecated on the 10 simple rules for editing! It was a minor edit! What was I thinking? He'll never change. He'll never change! Ever since I contributed to the article, always the same! Couldn't keep his hands off my edits! But not our FlightTime! Couldn't be precious FlightTime! Breaking the rules! And he gets to be an editor!? What a sick joke! I should've stopped him when I had the chance! And you - you have to stop him! You-

What was his second most popular role then?

I dont take issue with not including Discord alongside Q in the first sentence, as Q is more popular than Discord. The wiki autist was wrong to annoy the other editors about that. I am just arguing with the people here claiming that Discord isnt his 2nd most popular role. Also, MLP's a good show and liking it doesnt make one a pedophille. It's a good show that unfortunately has some degenerates in the fandom, like with many fandoms.

I didn't say it wasn't, and I am not familiar with his other roles. Again, you can say it's "obvious", either prove it with sources Wikipedia will accept or deal with the fact that you can't build consensus on Wikipedia itself and that's the standard they use.

Voice acting is forgotten. I didn't remember his character's name on Days of Our Lives but still remembered him.

Off the top of my head when I hear "John de Lancie" I think Q, then Frank Simmons, then the guy on Days of Our Lives back in the 80s who had the nutjob but entertaining wife.

I was aware he did voice acting as Discord in the My Little Pony reboot and recognized it when I watched the first season when it came out; admittedly I enjoyed it but after the hype died down never went back to the show. But again voice acting roles are not as important in listing acting roles as you don't recall the person themselves as the character.
