User blog:RABNerd VP/Fandom Character Page Test

Hello guys!

After the previous announcement and discussion we've decided to go through with the new Character Page lists. These will be a separate page, linked to on the fandom pages. In order to link to these you would have the hyperlink on the characters name listed be "[Fandom]/Characters#[Character Name]". We would also use these on any red links for characters on other ship or characters pages as well. See here and here for examples.

Any place where a name is needed for categorization, keep the same links for characters and fandoms as before. Such as in ship infoboxes and image categorization templates. Otherwise the categorization system will get messed up.

These pages will only be used for fandoms that already have pages. The same rule for creating character pages applies to fandom pages, they should have 5 non-stub ship pages, and 15 ships total listed on the page. Any fandom that does not qualify should be listed on one of our Fandom pages. If the fandom page is listed on one of the Fandom pages, it will not receive a characters page.

Any questions, suggestions and problems we have in the next month can be placed here. If most of our users do not like the pages after that time, we will start to remove them from the wiki. But if enough of our users like them, we will keep them. Both implementing the pages, and removing them from the wikis will take time, so please help out as much as you can during this time.
