2. Keep Fandyllic 4:21 PM PST 3 Mar 2006 - (I agree with Aeleas.)
3. Keep Psypho 6:11 PM PST 7 Mar 2006 - (I believe that it should be made to link with the other category or at least be made to ink with this other page that is being used by players of RP's.)
4. Keep Schmidt 21:43, 7 Mar 2006 (EST) - (see comments)
5. Keep Reyz 08:50, 10 Mar 2006 (EST) - (This page should be kept as a list for all the character bios that players add)

Comments

1. Deprecated in favor of Category:Players. --Anticrash 12:08, 30 Dec 2005 (EST)
2. I think it's useful to keep a distinction between the many RP biographies of in-game characters, and pages that describe a player as a member of the community.--Aeleas 13:54, 20 Feb 2006 (EST)
3. This needs some reconcilation before it is deleted (or perhaps redirected), I'll put it on my todo list but I'm not sure what I will do wit it or when I will get around to it. Ralthor 13:00, 3 Mar 2006 (EST)
4. I for one believe it does not need to be deleted, but perhaps at the most redirected or made to link with the Character Page. It brings a certain flavor to the already set lore. Also, this is RP biographical information, and may as well not be entirely included or bunched together with typical player information. Psypho 18:00, 6 Mar 2006 (EST)
5. This is (should be) distinct from Category:Players. The rationale? Players play Player Characters. They are not one in the same. Take, for example, me and my character Paia. I'm a man in college about to graduate. I play on my Dell laptop. Paia is a character taken from a story that I've been writing, pulled into Azeroth, who I haven't played in earnest for quite some time, whose adventures may make a small appearance in my written story. They are completely different. Listed under Category:Players would be D. F. Schmidt. Under Category:Player Characters would be Paia. Basically, I guess this is an echo of Aeleas' comment, but maybe it'll help define the distinction. Schmidt 21:43, 7 Mar 2006 (EST)
6. there is a difference between players / player characters. CJ 08:55, 10 Mar 2006 (EST)
