[edit] Dominar Bishan

Minor character that nobody seems interested in merging.

• Delete as per my nom. Dlyons493 Talk 18:04, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
• Keep. Let's clean it up, but until there's an appropriate article to merge it to, it should stay where it is. Captainktainer 18:16, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
• Merge to Farscape per WP:FICT, or delete if nobody can show why an encyclopedia should contain information about a character who exists only(?) in the backstory to a routine work of fiction. Barno 19:30, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

• Comment He shows up in Peacekeeper Wars at least once, and I think twice. He's frequently discussed (or complained about) during the series and plays an important role in Rygel's backstory. As for merging, the Farscape article isn't very well set up to list by character rather than by actor. I wouldn't be averse to a merge, but until the Farscape page is reformatted to accept it or until there's an appropriate, separate article with a list of the Farscape characters, we should keep it where it is. I strongly urge against deleting for the simple fact that he does hold some importance, and WP:FICT explicitly warns not to delete meaningful content.Captainktainer 00:13, 19 April 2006 (UTC)

• Comment I merged it into Farscape and it was promptly removed. The proposed list into which there was to have been a merge debate has been deleted and nobody contributed to the debate - nobody cares! So we should keep it because it's too trivial to merge anywhere? Dlyons493 Talk

• Comment It's not so much that it's too trivial to merge, it's that there isn't a list or article that's set up for the merge. I'm going to head on over to Farscape to find out why the merge was reverted; maybe Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol thought it was vandalism. Update- I was just over at Farscape and couldn't even find the merge in the logs; it seems from your talk page that User:Kotepho reverted the merge. Since a merge has been tried but for whatever reason failed, I'd like to recommend that we keep until someone can either set up List of minor Farscape characters or merge into Farscape.Captainktainer 08:25, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

• Comment Then I suggest you create the list and do the merge since nobody else seems interested. Dlyons493 Talk

• Merge complete - I merged the article into the List of minor Farscape characters article, along with some other stubs. It's a kludge job and I hope others will help me clean it up, but we can now redirect the Dominar Bishan article, assuming no further objections materialize.Captainktainer 20:03, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

• Comment Sounds good to me. Dlyons493 TalkDlyons493 20:18, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

• Delete, no merge. Utterly void of encyclopedic content. Angr (talk • contribs) 11:54, 23 April 2006 (UTC)
