Babylon 5

Still to add:

• a nicer view of the contents, like on the Babylon 5 characters category? Dunno - I'll worry about the aesthetics later, after everything else is working the way it's supposed to.

• I've copied the structure of these pages from List_of_Star_Wars_Characters and List_of_minor_characters_in_the_Firefly_universe, trying to make it neater where appropriate. How's it feel?

• Minor characters page - is a major character just someone with the most screen time? Or, given the nature of JMS's storytelling, where one character's actions echo for a very long time, can we call those minor characters who have a major effect on the plot of the series major characters? Talk! Now! :-p (I'd to try and get some discussion happening here before people start going nuts with merge/redirect/delete tags.)

• Appropriate links to and from this page.

• Clean up any lingering missing links from the minor character merges.

Feel free to add info below each point, or all your own work-needed points to the list. Quack 688 08:26, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free-use images

I see this article has been tagged as having too many copyrighted images. While I added a good bit of those images as an attempt to illustrate the characters in question, I can see why the tag was added.

So I'm curious as to what people think ought to be done. Should we take out all the images? Leave it as is? Only take out some of them? If only some are taken out, which ones should be left in?

Personally I feel kind of funny having images for only some characters and not others, which is why I added some in the first place, but whatever works for people and conforms better with policy. -- Amber Vietzke (talk) 06:15, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
