[edit] Zarm

As much as I love Captain Planet, this guy is a minor character at best, appearing in only a few episodes. This article could not be expanded beyond a paragraph, which will comfortably fit in the main Captain Planet and the Planeteers article, or at least a character article. Deco 05:24, 3 May 2005 (UTC)

• Hmm, I apologise for listing this. This is a clear Merge and redirect. Deco 00:04, 6 May 2005 (UTC)
• Keep I respectfully beg to differ. I have followed the model of the other articles of Captain Planet villains: character, appearance, modus operandi, mode of transportation, etc. Zarm may have had relatively few episodes, but I argue that this did not reduce his importance to the show; one of the most important episodes is centred around him, and he has a place as representing one of the 'pollutions' the show rails against: war, and is arguable the most powerful villain. By that logic, one could argue deleting the article on the Star Trek character Q, who was a formidable nemesis, but only appeared once per season. I don't mean to sound like a petulant newbie, but I see no reason why Zarm should not have his own article with the other Eco-Villains —Preceding unsigned comment added by Acolytexiv (talk • contribs) 00:33, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
