Talk:List of Farscape characters
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I created this article per suggestions in the Dominar Bishan AfD, so that minor character stubs and articles would not be deleted. Please help me merge other articles into this one, or trim down excess fat in this article that is better answered in a linked article. I have not yet mastered the merge fu.Captainktainer 20:00, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Teeg 2.jpg
Image:Teeg 2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Proposed merges
As each of the characters has an entry on this page, merging their individual pages here should be no problem. SolidPlaid 21:35, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
- While I'm not convinced that some of these characters don't merit their own articles, I have no problem with this suggestion at present. PC78 20:59, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Is Crichton named in honour of the science-fiction author Michael Crichton? Seems possible to me. LukeSurl t c 19:08, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Vote for less coverage of tv-shows / tv-characters
Has anyone any pointer why deep coverage of tv-characters supposed to be in a encyclopedia. I love wikipedia and i am a tv-show-junkie but anything more than a single sentence about a fictional character and may be a pointer to fan-site is just to much - at least in my opinion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.83.246.172 (talk) 21:24, 1 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Winona
How is Winona a character? It's an inanimate object. It lacks the prime requisite (a personality) that makes a character. 90.196.184.156 (talk) 13:14, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- Well, the DRDs are also inanimate, in the sense that they are not alive, but there are sections on DRD One-Eye and DRD 1812. From the Fictional character article "A fictional character is any person, persona, identity, or entity whose existence originates from a fictional work or performance". Note "persona" and "entity". I see no reason why Winona cannot be considered a character, as she exhibited many of the required traits and was personified by John. Her disqualification based solely on the fact that she is an inanimate object is unfair. Think outside the box 09:30, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- Any "persona" Winona has is as imagined by John. I might think my mobile phone is fun and quirky and name it Charlie, but the phone itself is not a character. It cannot be fun because it has no personality. That would be me transplanting my own personality onto the object. As for the DRDs, they have personalities in as much as any living creature does. Especially 1812. Possibly Artificial Intelligence? They are parts of a living ship, like antibodies in a human. As far as I'm aware, there is no proof to support that they are not alive in the same way that Moya and Talyn are.
- As for reverting my entire edit, by what stretch of the imagination can Rygel I and Rygel IX be considered "minor characters"? They are very briefly mentioned and never seen or heard. If this is the criteria for a minor character, why is every character ever seen in the series not included in this list? What about Volmae, who has an infinitely larger role in her single episode: Thank God It's Friday Again? Or Nilaam in Vitas Mortis? Or any number of characters who have considerably larger roles in the series?
- Argument can be made that D'Argo's Qualta Blade has as much character as Winona. And what about Lo'La? At least as much. Maybe even Rygel's throne sled. If one inanimate object into which people can read personification is included in this article, so should they all. A line has to be drawn somewhere. 90.196.184.156 (talk) 13:14, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
- OK, for the first point, with that you could say Harvey isn't a character because he is imagined by John (well, to some extent anyway). And did anyone ever talk to Rygel's throne? But I'll take on board your other points, especially on Rygel I and Rygel IX. I won't change it back myself, but feel free to if you want, I won't revert it again.

- Harvey differs from Winona in that he is a character with a personality. He originated as a clone of Scorpius' personality and has had interactions with numerous characters. Winona is incapable of interation. John's pulse pistol cannot be compared to Harvey. It is more like the chip Harvey came from. 90.196.184.156 (talk) 18:34, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
