This is a subpage for general discussion on the direction, function, and miscellaneous "stuff" of the WikiProject.

I have some ideas on what this project should focus on, but I've done enough work in shaping it already and will wait to hear others' ideas before commenting further. Brendan Moody 07:04, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Articles we need
I think one of our main goals should be getting more character information on Wikipedia. Characters from A Song of Ice and Fire has some great information, but there's no real rhyme or reason to the who's listed or what order they're listed in. I think we should expand the biographical section on Night's Watch (maybe a "major brothers" section with multi-paragraph bios for Jon, Mormont, Sam and whomever else is deemed appropriate and a "minor brothers" section with shorter bios). I think a Brotherhood without Banners article is DEFINITELY needed- there are multiple important biographies to put there, and we can also put in stuff about the war in the Riverlands that might not fit anywhere else. Maybe a knights page and a maester's page, and one dedicated to people not living in Westeros. Anyway, we'll work it out.

I also think we need to decide what characters are going to get individual articles. I know we have Jon and Dany, and that's a start, but considering that neither of them has been a major character in all 4 books, it seems strange that they're the only ones with their own articles. I'd suggest adding Tyrion and Arya for sure, simply because Martin has repeatedly said that they (along with our already-articled friends) are the four characters fans like the most.
