No assertion of notability or references to third-party sources. Wikiproject consensus is for characters like this to redirect to List of..., but tendentious editor continues to revert. --EEMIV (talk) 13:23, 20 May 2009 (UTC)


 * keep or merge as per whatever the establish practice is on wikipedia for star wars character bios. hi; i'm the tendentious editor EMMIV is talking about in the above comment.  we are having a problem with each other because EEMIV is in the habit of unilaterally blanking & redirecting minor articles. he posts a "justification" for this action on the articles talk pags at the same time that he blanks & redirects.  my understanding of relevant WP is that it's considered bad form to make such major changes to an article without seeking concensus first.  i've been undoing a few of his drastic edits & that makes me "tendentious".  he has been re-doing them, & in the case of this article, he has used up his 3 reverts, so now he's prodding it.  i really don't care whether the article is kept as is or merged. i work mainly on non-fiction; but i got into this stuff because: a) as an encyclopedia, the way we cover fictional subjects is a mess; inconsistent standards, often poorly written material, & poor organization. we desperately need to establish more consistent practices for how to treat this kind of material.  if we can manage to do that, then how to deal with articles like this would be far more clear-cut; either we do bio articles on minor star wars characters, or we don't, or we lump them together in groups, or whatever. b) i disagree quite strongly with EEMIV's practice of unilaterally blanking & redirecting article pages.  posting a comment on the talk page after you've done so is not adequate notice, nor does it reflect consensus.

 * ...so, if Lx 121 is fine restoring the redirect, which is what the Star Wars wikiproject consensus is for minor characters like this one, I'm happy to withdraw the nom. and restore the redirect. --EEMIV (talk) 16:09, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep and reference better. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 06:36, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of Star Wars characters. No wider notability for this character.  Lankiveil (speak to me) 03:54, 23 May 2009 (UTC).
