The result was: as is common with fictional characters, no consensus, particularly due to the confusion over exactly what fictional works the characters are limited to (apparently not just a computer game). --Sam Blanning(talk) 02:48, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ivan and Pikel Bouldershoulder

Ivan and Pikel Bouldershoulder (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Minor characters in a computer game. Wikipedia is neither a game guide nor an indiscriminate collection of information. Unreferenced and unwikified. Contested prod. MER-C 02:51, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Weak keep. They're not computer game characters, but rather fairly major characters in The Cleric Quintet. —Wrathchild (talk) 04:43, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per nom. Mention can be made at The Cleric Quintet. Eusebeus 13:59, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

  • Delete Can be merged into the article The Cleric Quintet if a 3rd party ref describes them. My view is reading the primary source and and choosing which are the notable characters is OR.Obina 21:45, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Article makes no assertion of notability. Wavy G 01:20, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep They were primary charcters in The Cleric Quintet and have been featured quite alot in some of the newer books. I've been doing some work on the page, trying to get it up past "stub" status. If Clacker and Belwar Dissengulp have pages, shouldn't Ivan and Pikel? Mwsilvabreen 21:03, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep* Ivan and Pikel were in fact two of the main protagonists in the Cleric Quintet and deserve a page of their own. Other minor characters like like Drizzt's favored weapons Twinkle and Icingdeath have a page.
  • Changing to Keep Didn't understand from the wording, "Residents of R.A. Salvatores Forgotten Realms Universe" that these are characters from a book series. Intro paragraph could use a good cleanup and wikilinks (for instance, how about specifying, "fictional characters from the book series The Cleric Quintet"?), but now I see, from reading others' input here, that these are notable characters.
