Talk:List of A Series of Unfortunate Events characters

message: I don't think it does. All the characters here can either be mentioned in minor ASOUE characters or not mentioned at all. Mrmoocow 06:24, 4 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I'd tolerate this article. It's a large enough collection of characters to just be notable. Whereas if you had an article that was something like, say, Crew of the Queequeg, that'd probably have too few characters or just be a collection of links to other articles. 217.42.68.232 08:41, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Does this really require its own page? 

message: :Image:Justice Strauss1.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Justice Strauss1.jpg

message: "Frank is a volunteer for V.F.D., while Ernest is a villainous member of V.F.D." Do we actually know this? I thought the books said that they could not be told apart--JustWong 13:12, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Frank and Ernest Denouement 

message: Is Bruce's surname definitely Spats? Although he is Carmelita's uncle, his own surname is never mentioned in the series and it is never even said which side of the family he is on, so it is not certain from the series that they have the same surname. Has this been revealed in one of the spin-off novels? George.millman (talk) 16:12, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

text: Well, you are really right, and feel free to change the section heading, but don't remove the information inside. I suppose the conclusion violates WP:SYNTHESIS and WP:ORIGINALSYN, but including the information does not. However, both Carmelita's parents are surnamed "Spats", which suggests that "Spats" is from her father's side of the family. — the Man in Question (in question) 17:56, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

message: I don't see Carmelita Spats listed anywhere here. Am I missing something?Lafong (talk) 06:45, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Several characters' descriptions were deleted with this AfD; Carmelita is one of them. I've got a list of characters to add to this article, and I'll try and add them soon, but go ahead and add Carmelita yourself if you want. — Bilorv (talk)(contribs) 07:42, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Carmelita?? 

message: I'm proposing that the articles for Beatrice Baudelaire, Sunny Baudelaire, Count Olaf, Klaus Baudelaire, Violet Baudelaire and Baudelaire family be merged into this article. They were recently put up for AfD, but there is no reason why they can't merge here. There is some potential merit to having an article specifically for the Baudelaire family, so this needs to be discussed as well. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 11:27, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge and retitle 

message: I would strongly disagree in merging this article into the mainstream one. I say this because it is a hidden narrative within the main one; once you unlock the meaning of the the dedications this narrative unravels and it adds so many more emotional levels to the whole story. The story becomes adult. I feel as though Beatrice's article is less about her and more about this story around her that is unlocked. Perhaps it would be interesting to have a separate article for this extra section of the story. But that is just my 2 cents. JuanitaEbbs (talk) 11:21, 6 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Keep it separate. 

message: Kit is unarguably more imporant to the story than half of the characters listed on this page, but does not have her own section despite being mentioned 23 times -- what's up with that? (MMStinks was here. You can come yell at me for this if you'd like, or check my work) 04:31, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: The list as it stands is in a very bad state, not conforming at all to Wikipedia's policies about giving due weight based on importance or not including indiscriminate information. So for instance, the V.F.D. eagles should not be mentioned at all, and definitely Kit should have a section of her own. You are very welcome to be bold and try to fix some of these problems. — Bilorv(c)(talk) 10:36, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Where is Kit Snicket? 

message: I think this is one of those articles with too many details making it difficult to read. I just removed the complete list of disguises that Olaf had. I really don't think that's necessary. I hope to remove the excess details in the remaining sections as well (do we need all of Violet's inventions?). If this is an issue with someone, let me know.
Also, I am glad that someone has all this information typed up so I would love to find a more appropriate setting to place it. At the moment, my thoughts lie with the fandom wiki but let me know if anyone has a better suggestion.
