Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Fictional characters/Infobox discussion

This page is where we will discuss the parameters used in fictional character infoboxes.

firstappearance vs firstgame
Should both be used? Only one? Which one?
 * Keep both - The first notable appearance might not be in a video game. Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:55, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep firstappearance as it is, in my opinion important information that is almost always included in the lead, Indifferent to firstgame. Harry Blue5 (talk • contribs) 08:41, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

creator vs artist
Are they the same?
 * Keep both - The original creator and the current artist may not be the same. Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:55, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep both They can be the same, but not neccesarily. Harry Blue5 (talk • contribs) 08:41, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

japanactor
Is it undue weight?
 * Indifferent - I think the Japanese voice actor just be listed in "voiceactor". Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:55, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

motionactor vs liveactor
Is there a difference?
 * Keep both - I think there was a consensus that they are different. Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:55, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

nickname
Really?
 * Delete - I don't really see the purpose of this. Blake (Talk·Edits) 18:55, 13 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Not really needed and doesn't appear to serve a purpose. Also does not appear to exist. Harry Blue5 (talk • contribs) 08:41, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
