Talk:Magua

Untitled
How is Magua a "supervillain"? Does he have superpowers, a criminal empire or advanced technology in the novel? Has he appeared in anything except adaptations of this novel? 173.73.59.18 (talk) 04:57, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Magua → Magua (The Last of the Mohicans)
 * Magua (disambiguation) → Magua
 * Question: Do we ordinarily include "The" at the beginning of the disambiguator in cases like this? (we don't include it for band names, but I'm not sure about book titles). —BarrelProof (talk) 19:36, 13 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The above-referenced guidance on band names has been reverted, as discussed at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style/Music/Archive 8 and Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1020 and Administrators' noticeboard/Archive314 and in this edit summary. —BarrelProof (talk) 02:35, 16 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, we do, per WP:THE, if that's how it's most commonly used in sources. Station1 (talk) 09:20, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
 * Support per nomination. Fenimore Cooper's Native American villain is not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC. There are five entries listed in the Magua (disambiguation) page and, unlike other fictional characters, such as David Copperfield, Oliver Twist or Jean Valjean, whose names have instant recognizability, this character from a 19th-century novel is not the novel's central figure nor did his name become part of our language or culture. As for "The" in the title, all book editions, except one, depict "The Last..." —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 02:53, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * The comments about "The" were not about whether the word was in the title of the book or not. —BarrelProof (talk) 19:50, 25 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Oppose per WP:PRIMARYUSAGE. It gets more than triple the |Magua_(clothing)|Magua|Magua_(disambiguation)|Roman_Catholic_Diocese_of_Magua pageviews of everything else combined. Station1 (talk) 09:20, 1 December 2019 (UTC)
