[edit] Rethink

Not all of the characters that have been put together in this article are the same.

Another thought...
The episode Pegasus Project is just the first crossover between the two series, and more than likely much more to come. Do not differentiate between the series. General Landry and Sergeant Harriman are as much part of Stargate Atlatis as all of the other minor characters, even Dr. Lee crossed over. Rodney McKay is major character in Stargate Atlantis, he is a minor Stargate SG-1 character. So articles should be called Stargate (title) characters. So all of the minor Air Force colonels would go into one article (Simmons, Caldwell, Pendergast), all of the minor Marine colonels would go into another (Makepeace, Sumner, and Everett). Try to group characters as closely related as possible. It would allow for greater categorization. - LA @ 07:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

1) The question is to have less pages, with less chances to get AfD. If this page becomes too big, then we'll think about separating in categories. For now, I think we don't have enough characters to make those separations worthwile.

2) I'm cataloguing the characters according to the series they regular/recurring characters of. Take into account, too, that many people is still only a SG-1 fan or an Atlantis fan, but not a fan of both. Also, trying to find Atlantis characters into the more populated list of SG-1 characters can be frustrating. While both series are set in the same universe, they also have enough things that made them unique and I think the series categorization is still the better option.

[edit] Peter Grodin

Should Grodin really be counted as a minor character? I realize that he was only in one season, but he was in quite a few episodes. -- SFH 18:55, 17 September 2006 (UTC)
