Characters in Call of Duty

Characters in Call of Duty (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) (delete) – (View log)

Characters have no notability in of themselves. Almost all of the material is included in the various articles for each iteration of the game. Much of the article currently is being used for speculation as to the fates of characters in Call of Duty 4, something that is completely original research per that page's talk page consensus, hence this article is being used as a POV fork. Also, reads very much like a game guide. Lacking any significant sources as well. SWATJester 03:56, 21 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been added to the list of video game deletions. MrKIA11 (talk) 14:53, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep I thought the running consesnus was the it is better to have lists of characters rather than having to fend off page creation of each one, piecemeal. I know that there are character lists for other games out there. But the OR and sourcing problems probably need to be worked out.Protonk (talk) 15:28, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep per Protonk. --GHcool (talk) 17:14, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep This is the preferred way to do it, rather than to have individual articles of the minor characters, or try to handle it in one long and confusing article. How far to subdivide it is an editorial matter, not one for AfD. DGG (talk) 00:07, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Heaps undue weight on lightweight characters and 'silent protaganist' player characters. There is nothing here which warrants a separate character section within individual game articles, let alone a character article. They're plot elements, cover them in plot. It is much better to have a self-contained list for characters, but that's assuming that the characters have enough depth to warrant one. Too often the focus on characters is pushed beyond the point of bloody silly. Someoneanother 01:11, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep Per Protonk.--SkyWalker (talk) 03:37, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Keep As long as it is not being used as a POV fork-- Protonk is right this is better then a bunch of septate articles SirBob42 (talk) 09:31, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete Most characters very uninportant and could eaisy fit and pertaine to thier respective articles. БοņёŠɓɤĭĠ₳₯є 19:50, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Delete - I can't see why a character article would be warranted for minor characters and the silent protagonist of each game. There's hardly any content to place for these, and it would be much better covered within the respective plot sections of each article. Sephiroth BCR 00:25, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
