Clean Up
I'm starting to think all the major characters from
Victory Gundam
.
What do you think? Shaneymike (talk) 19:59, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
- I see there is already a separate Victory Gundam. Shaneymike (talk) 21:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)]
- I've removed all of the characters that were exclusively in Zeta Gundam as there is already a list for them. As soon as the other shows have their own lists, I'll gladly remove the rest. And then maybe we could rename this List of Mobile Suit Gundam Characters? Shaneymike (talk) 14:12, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
- I just finished dividing the remaining protagonists according to their respective series. As soon as we have lists for them, I'll happy remove the ones that aren't in First Gundam Shaneymike (talk) 17:27, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Frau Bow
I'm deeply biased, but if you have seen Mobile Suit Gundam, Frau has a bigger role in the story than Hayato, Sleggar or Matilda, and certainly an equal one with any other WB crew member. Please stop this silly nonsense about merging her. –ConkblockedWiki 01:53, 15 November 2009 (UTC)
- It has nothing to do with her role in the series, but with establishing her reliable third-party sources. Many of the other characters will eventually be merged with the current exceptions of Char Aznable and Amuro Ray, which have established their notability outside of the series. —Farix (t | c) 03:45, 15 November 2009 (UTC)]
- Where and when did all this merging consensus come about, exactly? –ConkblockedWiki 19:40, 16 November 2009 (UTC)
- There have been numerous discussions on merging unnotable characters (i.e. characters lacking real-world notability, not just "significant" within the series) all across Wikipedia, and particular with the anime/manga project. There have been very lengthy discussions and a ton of merges done at talk · contribs) 03:20, 17 November 2009 (UTC)]

Personally I can't understand why Ryu Jose gets a page and Hayato Kobayashi doesn't. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.162.157.254 (talk) 08:27, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
- Ryu Jose should be merged. Hayato Kobayashi continues to appear in Zeta and Double-Zeta, but isn't significant enough to have his own page. Frau Bow isn't very significant either, and should remain merged. Traece (talk) 07:26, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

- Support the merging of all. None have any real-world notability as established by significant coverage in reliable, third-party sources. As such, they should not have articles on their own. Per talk · contribs) 03:16, 17 November 2009 (UTC)]
- Support I see no reason to keep any of those as separate articles if reliable sources aren't presented. Most of the characters proposed don't do a whole lot outside a couple of scenes and so won't have a great amount of discussion in reliable sources. The ones that do have a proper role still need reliable sources to establish notability. Dandy Sephy (talk) 04:38, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
Note:Paolo Cassius and Sleggar Law have been merged already per AFD. Dandy Sephy (talk) 04:44, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
- Support as the person behind the original merge notices. I've also added Gihren Zabi as his comparison to a certain 20th century German dictator may have received coverage by reliable third-party sources. —Farix (t | c) 14:18, 17 November 2009 (UTC)]
- Support the merge. Not enough evidences of notability. Most spin-out characters articles are read like partial regurgitation of the plot from each character point of view. --KrebMarkt 14:48, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
Note:
Tem Ray has now closed as merge in it's AFD. Dandy Sephy (talk) 05:16, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

- Despite the 11 hour expansion that incorporated a great deal of original research, there isn't really anything to merge as the character is inconsequential. So inconsequential that even GundamOfficial doesn't list him among their list of significant characters. —Farix (t | c) 12:53, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
- Sounds like a redirect then. Probably with a brief mention under Amuro's entry. Dandy Sephy (talk) 14:43, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
