List of Dead or Alive characters
this page doesn't serve a purpose anymore that Template:DOA and Template:DOA Character already does --Philo 12:10, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep and expand. Character lists are common on Wikipedia (such as the List of characters from The Simpsons and List of characters from Family Guy), and the templates don't provide a description of each individual character.-- T B C [[Image:Confused-tpvgames.gif|18px|]] ???  ???   ??? 16:33, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep It seems that every character on this list already has an article, so it's less useful than some, but it still should be kept since it's nice to have an annotated overview of the characters without having to visit lots of pages. Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:53, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep There are also lists for episodes and vechriles, how can this page be any different? -Dynamo_ace Talk

 * Delete. Pure fancruft. Brian G. Crawford 23:12, 28 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep Templates don't always substitute lists, neither do categories. It's much better to have "List of foo game characters" article than a) a gigantic template message and b) a separate article for each minor character ever. It can also serve as a good overview to a much larger set of Stuff. Also, these lists contain the fancruft to specific articles, and that's a good thing. If you've got to have fancruft, at least do it this way! --wwwwolf (barks/growls) 09:08, 29 March 2006 (UTC)
 * Merge This belongs on the Dead or Alive page. It's ridiculous to have to click through to another screen just for the character list.213.208.117.47 23:55, 1 April 2006 (UTC)
