Category:1632 series characters needing articles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
 This category tracks major character names, temporarily handled by a section link into the compendium page entry in 1632 characters which are part of the 1632 series (alternate history genre) articles, and where the character is significant and important enough to implemented by a separate article. In contrast, the article (and category) 1632 characters each covers all characters of major or minor scope—including brief coverage of those that warrant an article page, in which case the list provides a link and synopsis treatment. Overall entries span actual historical figures (as treated in the new time line of the 1632-verse neohistory, with entry emphasis on differences with history), major fictional characters (similar treatment, in synopsis form, with link to article page for them), and minor characters of all kinds, where the section entries are about their occurrences, story lines, etc. Use (any, all aliased to last) one of these tools on the same line as #redirect [[1632 characters#section title|Surname, First]] to add a redirect page to this category:
Non-character page titles which should be given full article treatment should instead use {{R from 1632 redirect}} or {{R to 1632 section}}. |
- Pipesorted to begin sorting with a space
- (the very top entries) signify a typing aid that expands, usually to a link--almost always convenient phrases, abbreviations or templates that step around a disambig page, or link to a section of a list article page.
!—page named is a categorizing template tool for expanding and auto-categorization. The pipetrick=|!{{PAGENAME}} in each case.
{—page is a typical wikipedia redirect by a (perhaps) more convenient name or alternative name in any case. Such pages should also be tagged with the pertinent {R from...} templates as listed in WP:REDIRECTS, unless tagged by a 1632 redirect template like {{R to 1632 section}}, {{R to 1632 characters}} etc.
}—page is a 1632 important topic that should (eventually) be stubbed into an article page, so long as WP:FICTION, and especially any character notability guidelines are satisfied.
Characters workups should tag redirects in this class initially with both {{1632 characters|}Surname, First}} and {{R to 1632 characters|}Surname, First}} so the article needed is (blindingly obvious!) visible in both characters categories.
Any character redirect page should and must have a matching Surname, First title section in 1632 characters, but most minor characters should define Last, First for the next section title (alphabetically) above.
Document all redirects pages but especially such off-center redirects with the {{redirectstohere}} tool with the hide=TRUE switch defined so if and when an entry is added between, it can be used as the new best target.
