[edit] Jack the monkey

Jack the monkey (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

An unimportant minor character in a series of three movies. This is some of the worst character cruft I've seen on Wikipedia; delete. A Link to the Past (talk) 21:02, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

• Delete - Or merge with Hector Barbossa--$UIT 04:30, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

• Don't delete - Jack is possibly important for the third movie's plot, and he is an independent beeng and not an appendage to Barbossa. The article should just be extended.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.144.65.26 (talk • contribs)
  • If the character does turn out to be important, then perhaps he'll get an article again. But currently, he's really minor and unimportant.--$UIT 17:18, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
• Merge somewhere: Either to article above or List of minor characters in Pirates of the Caribbean. Danski14^(talk) 02:11, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
• Merge to List of minor characters in Pirates of the Caribbean per WP:FICTION which clearly says "Minor characters in a work of fiction should be merged with short descriptions into a "List of characters."". --maclean 03:03, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with List of minor characters in Pirates of the Caribbean. Gracenotes^T § 13:42, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
• Don't delete - The monkey is as important to the POTC films as Slimer is the Ghostbusters film, yet nobody has requested that article be deleted. User:AK619
  • The presence of another article that may be equally or less notable on Wikipedia does not validate this article. But on that subject, Slimer spans comic books, the movies, and the various cartoon series. Very different situation from this, which is a monkey owned by a character who is not the main character in three movies. - A Link to the Past (talk) 22:26, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
• Merge with List of minor characters in Pirates of the Caribbean; clearly not enough for a separate article. Crotalus horridus (TALK • CONTRIBS) 07:39, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
• Merge into List of minor characters in Pirates of the Caribbean, it's not enough for a own article, but also too much for deleting.
• Merge It's the most sensible approach to this material. zadignose 13:18, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
