Notability[edit]

On reviewing WP:FICTION, I believe that this article would not stand up to a notability test. As a result, any sourced content should be merged back into the Dethklok article (and the rest permanently removed). Wikipedia is not a fan site.  X  S  G  22:54, 15 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, Wikipedia:FICTION#Derivative articles says that a character page should be individually notable on its own. I don't think any of these are. There's enough info on the main Dethklok page about each character, without getting into specific minutiae. All five of these pages seem to serve as a way to write down every little thing about every character (see Toki Wartooth for a particularly bad example of this), just for the sake of doing so, probably giving it undue weight and a lot of this is unsourced. Can anyone give a good reason this should stay? If not, I'll probably nominate these for AfD, as I really don't think they should exist. MrMoustacheMM (talk) 23:18, 12 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
These articles should either point to Dethklok, Characters of from Metalocalypse, Metalocalypse . I agree with MrMoustacheMM and XSG that the Nathan Exposion article (along with all the other individual Dethklok character) do not possess enough notability and only currently discuss their topic with respect to the fictional Metalocalypse universe. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk  13:35, 15 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Redirects are a good idea, fixed up some of the individual redirects to their specific character at Dethklok#Member Name. If we continue to have reverts on these pages to old versions, it might be a good idea to actually delete the articles (so there's nothing to revert to) and then re-create them as simple redirects. But we'll cross that bridge if it becomes necessary. MrMoustacheMM (talk) 16:45, 17 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
