text: I dislike anything that uses the BTTF game as a reference.  The movie writers were consulted for some things, but not everything and that's why I believe the BTTF game should not be used to reference anything related to the BTTF movies.  I'd remove Marty's middle name. -- Lyverbe (talk) 13:24, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

message: OK, he's been shot at by both Biff-A and Buford, nearly hung (again by Buford) and chased by various Tannens, but somehow Marty being in this category seems a bit out of place. It says to me that Marty is frequently abused by the other characters, when in fact I think these circumstances weren't "abuse". Does anyone see what I'm trying to say, because I don't seem to be able to word it right.....
:Don't take it seriously. Some vandal was going around adding several of the characters to this category, along with assigning other articles to unusual categories. In the "Page history", just click on the contributor's name, then click on "User contributions" to look for patterns of serial vandalism, and revert them. GUllman 22:15, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Victim of abuse?

message: The article once again has Marty's date of birth as June 9, 1968. Only the year (1968) is correct, as for the month and day we do not know. June 9 is Michael J Fox's birthday (and thus a lot of fanfic writers make it Marty's birthday as well), but since the films or series make no mention of when his birthday is, I shall remove the reference to June 9.
:Won't stop fans from adding it back, but yes, only his year is known, as he is 17 in 1985, but we don't know when he turned it during the year.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:304:CFD3:2EE0:E42C:7D5E:31CA:82A0 (talk) 08:42, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

message: Can anyone explain why Marty is independ as a Fictional United States Democrat?
Pretty ironic considering the similarities between him and Ronald Reagan (white male Irish-American guys living in California).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.45.226.161 (talk) 17:16, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

replies: text: In 2015, yes.  In 1985, he's only plain "Marty McFly".  So, who wins? - Lyverbe (talk) 23:26, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text:  The interesting thing is that he is never called "Marty" by any of the characters in the film.  He is always called "Mardy". --leuce (talk) 11:45, 28 November 2011 (UTC)

message: I don’t think it’s really warranted because Back to the Future is a big franchise and Marty still appears every once in a while regardless whatever shape and form he’s in, even with Michael J. Fox’s permanent retirement from acting. RayKVega (talk) 02:17, 13 January 2024 (UTC)
