[edit] Superhero

Ha...sorry, I just had to laugh about him being in the 'Superheros without costumes' category. --05:16, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Batman?

Nnothing about the common Batman comparison?

The Batman comparison is self-evident and trite. Further, the Batman villains in general are fairly ambiguous archetypes seen in nearly every good versus evil story. The comparison is valid but not notable enough for its own section. 137.99.140.197 02:19, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Images

Could someone add images of Alex, Gordon, Alan Gabriel, Beck, and Angel?

[edit] Does not meet WP:FICTION criteria for seperate article

This article does not meet the criteria for a serperate article according to the current guidelines at FICTION. Please either bring it in line with Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style_(writing_about_fiction) or leave it in the blanket article. --Kunzite 04:41, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

The articles do meet the WP:FICT criteria for a seperate articles because:

1.They are already are in line with Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction) as they are both written in an out-of-universe perspective and they have a few citations (though I do admit that they should have some more).

2.This list is currently 34 mb, which is larger than preferable, thus it should be split. --TBCTaLk?!? 03:11, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

1. There is not a single citation in the whole article. (I don't consider links or passing mentions of an episode to be citations.) There is no single WP:RS source in the article. The article, with perhaps the exception of the first sentence is written in-universe. It doesn't meet WP:WAF If you think outherwise, please provide examples.

There is a lot of editor inserting generalizations...i.e. "Many feel Dorothy is based on the character..." Who are these "many"? Many television critics? Many English majors? Why do we care about what they feel?

2. We don't slavishly abide by the pre-programmed size limit. Please read WP:SIZE. --Kunzite 03:52, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Alright, I've cleaned up and expanded the Roger Smith (anime character) article so that it now meets up with Wikipedia:Manual of Style (writing about fiction). --TBCTaLk?!? 20:29, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

The WP:SIZE limits have become less rigid and I'm re-adding this character back to this page. --Kunzite 00:11, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
