Category talk:Super Smash Bros. fighters

message: Can a consensus be reached on whether it's worthwhile to have redirect pages listed within the category? I personally feel that, for the sake of completeness, the closest article available [eg, Dr. Mario (series) or the redirect page Falco Lombardi, which links to his entry on the Star Fox characters page] should be given the category to make the list in this category a complete list. However, the edits are reverted time and time again, so apparently other people feel differently. Anyone care to express their opinion on the matter? - The T 19:54, 24 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Redirects

message: The best solution to the above dispute might be to create a subcategory of this category, and put the redirects in there. Is there a list of redirects for Super Smash Bros. fighters? Carcharoth 13:56, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That would seem kind of silly and counterproductive, though. The idea for the category would simply be a showing of all the characters in the game, for those who don't want to or choose not to browse the Super Smash Bros. (series) article directly. As someone viewing the Mario article might want to move to the Ness section of the List of EarthBound characters article, they would think it would be logical to go through this category. Adding a "Redirects" category would just muddle it further, I personally feel. The T 23:43, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Categorizing  redirects 

message: For some reason, Ike isn't on this list, and I am unable to add. Can someone else with that ability add him in? It doesn't make sense to have "List of Characters in Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance" instead of Ike. Agreed?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by GEM036 (talk • contribs) 23:53, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: No, this is not vandalism, see discussion with no consensus. Inclusively, WP:CAT-RD tells us to not categorize redirects in this fasion. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 01:41, 17 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: From what I've read on WP:CAT-RD, these categories are acceptable. Please point out where it states it doesn't. The T (talk) 03:07, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Read the very bottom of Wikipedia:CAT-R#When to categorize a redirect. We do not list characters by occupation. Lord Sesshomaru (talk • edits) 18:36, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: In what sense is this an occupation? We're listing all playable characters part of this fictional world. What difference does it make that they happen to also be taken from other fictional worlds? This latter part is the entire reason the category should exist. The T (talk) 00:01, 21 January 2008 (UTC)
