[edit] Overlap

Many of these links are overlaps of already existing articles under a slightly different name. Like, Studio Ghibli Collection is pretty much covered under Studio Ghibli and all/most (I haven't checked all of them yet) of the movies in said collection already have their own Wikipedia page. Should we just remove these links? Applejaxs 23:33, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

Yes, just remove and note in the edit summary that it is already covered. If its a possible alternate name, maybe create a redirect (such as the name of the OVA of an anime series). Collectonian (talk) 02:00, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Removing blue links

Several of the requested articles have been created -> so it shows with all the blue links. Although some (most?) are stubs, a list of these can be found under Category:Anime and manga stubs I'll keep the links that have a mangaka in red.

What happened to Anime Cliches? I guess it was blue once, but now it is red. I guess a list of cliches is not very encycolpedic in one way or another, so was it deleted? Should it be moved back into the list of requests? -- Lilwik 09:40, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

I've just discovered the deletion log and it answered my question very nicely. The answer is right here: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of anime clichés. -- Lilwik 11:44, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

I think we should just take it off the list. After all, if it's being deleted now, won't it be deleted again later? Unless it is being deleted because there is not enough good content... Applejaxs 23:33, 3 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Characters

Should we make a point that characters are not to be listed here? In general, a character article will not be created from scratch but rather split from the parent series article so there seems little point in listing here when a split template on the article will attract more immediate and relevant attention. Shiroi Hane 07:48, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

You've got a point. At the very least, they should provide the series the character belongs to. --Εξαίρετος (

Should we remove the Fourth Hokage then? There's already a section about him in the List of Konoha ninja. Applejaxs 23:43, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

Don't know if this was ever done, but I have now updated the page to specifically note character articles should go for discussion on the parent article. Collectonian (talk) 02:01, 18 March 2008 (UTC)
