List of Scarface characters

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Extensive retelling of plot from a single film, a single film does not need a list of characters. Original research, bits of game plot too which belongs in its own article. What little information that exists that is NOT already in the film article (which I don't think is the case) can be merged there very easily. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 01:34, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

 * There seems to be the common misconception that attempts to directly describe a primary work, such as a film, are WP:OR, but that's incorrect. Only if the description ventures into original analysis or speculation (i.e., becomes unverifiable by any work, primary or otherwise), does it become original research. That said, merge to Scarface (1983 film) (and the spin-off video game article, if applicable) because there's no call for having a separate list of characters only featured in one film. postdlf (talk) 00:58, 31 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete WP:NOTDIR and doesn't need its own spinout. If it had sources, I'd say merge, but right now I don't see any details notable enough to keep as sections. czar   &middot;   &middot;  09:18, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
