Talk:Skull Bearers (Shannara)

Merge proposal

 * Merge due to lack of notability e.g. Talk:Skull Bearers (Shannara)/GA1 Widefox ; talk 07:40, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

This article was proposed for merge with List of Shannara characters in August 2012, by Widefox.
 * Presumably, the editor who added that tag—User:Widefox—supports the merge.
 * Support the merge. Rationale:  insufficient real-world notability to justify a separate article for a fictional character.  Cheers.  N2e (talk) 02:31, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

BRD discussion
This discussion is to address a large reversion of an edit I made on August 18th. I had removed a few statements that were unsourced, and had not been sourced by anyone for a couple of months with citations being requested by citation needed and citation needed (lead) tags.

I had made a BOLD edit, and another editor—TheEd17—had Reverted it. Next step is to Discuss it on the Talk page, per WP:BRD.

However, when TheEd17 reverted my deletion of the unsourced claims, he did not return the citation needed tags to the article. I have done so now, and the article is back to where it was before my Bold edit of 2013-08-18, so we can have a discussion of the matter, with the article temporarily left in the state it was in before my edit.

Bottom line from my point of view, the information removed was not supported by reliable sources, and no editor had come by to provide good sources to support the claims, or to show notability, which has been previously challenged by another editor (Widefox). Therefore, I believe they should be removed from the article until sources are found.

What is your rationale for leaving them in the article? Is there some sort of policy that says editor-provided descriptions of fictional characters is not subject to Wikipedia core policy of WP:V? Cheers. N2e (talk) 05:49, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
