Talk:Ventrue

Rating scale
As to the quality scale, I would say this article is a C. It needs to be wikified more, have the references cited (more than one! Clans always have lots of info books!) and to be rewritten in an "out of character" style.

As to importance, I looked at things like a hierarchy as the article said to do- Vampire: The Masquerade (top), Clans in V:TM (high), Bloodlines in V:TM (Mid). As Ventrue is a Clan and in V:TM Clans are crucial to the game, it's high.

Fair use rationale for Image:Ventrue.jpg
Image:Ventrue.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Merger proposal
Please see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Role-playing games where a discussion is occurring about merging pages in this category. --Craw-daddy | T | 12:37, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

As this page no longer exists, is it safe to assume that this has been resolved? Urbandale (talk) 23:07, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Notability Explanation and Disagreement about Merging and / or Deletion
The "Clans" in Vampire are equivalent to the character classes in Dungeons and Dragons, they are NOT just a story element. As wiki deems fit to allow the character classes of Dungeons and Dragons to have their own articles (Bard (Dungeons & Dragons), etc), there is no reason why the "character classes" of another exceedingly popular pen-and-paper RPG are not notable enough to have their own articles. Even more so since they ARE both Character Classes AND major elements of the story.

In addition, considering the large amounts of background info and game-based info on each of the clans, it is NOT feasible to merge them all into one article. In fact, if we were to do so the resulting article would be too big and then go against Wiki standards.

Please stop listing all Vampire:The Masquerade articles as non-notable.Flygongengar (talk) 20:33, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
