Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Warcraft character articles
Once Kaustav's comments are gone, I don't see how this discussion could possibly have been considered to be "heading fairly close to a delete consensus".  If these articles are simply deleted, then it opens the door to deleting pretty much every fictional character from wikipedia.  This is a compilation of the major and supporting characters from an extremely notable video game series; the precedent this would set would be chilling.  We might as well say goodbye to Harry_Potter_%28character%29 and Luke_Skywalker, if fictional characters are not worthy of the attention of wikipedia.   is pretty clear - major characters get their own pages, and minor characters should be merged into a list.  And yes, video games fall under those guidelines, unless we want to have a discussion on if video games are an inherently inferior medium.  Even if some of the characters in this AFD are believed to be relatively minor, AFD is NOT the appropriate medium to debate their notability relative to one another in preparation for a merge.  That can be done elsewhere.  If the quality of the articles is a problem, then please, help fix them - but there's no reason to set a precedent of deleting every fictional character from wikipedia
