Talk:List of Digimon Adventure characters

message: Who suggested to put Oikawa's article in the minor character list? That's incredibly stupid. Oikawa may have appeared for only eight episodes, but he was one of the most important characters in the plot of 02. Demon of Light 18:10, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Splitsection

message: In my Wikipedia travels, I came across this article and thought that it might do well to merge it into this one. However, this article seems exclusively Digimon...are humans allowed too? IzzyFerret 19:12, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Humans too?

message: First off, we should add the main chars to this page as "main" links. Also, since many of these characters are in both seasons, we should just remove the dividing construct of which season they premiered in, and alphabetize.
*Digidestined
*Villains
*Other Humans
:*Family
:*Other?
*Other Digimon?
:*Allies?
:*Wild?
:*Villains' Armies?
Something like that.KrytenKoro 20:02, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Changes 

message: Now that the reorg is complete, we need to do massive cleanup/trimming, as well as filling in missing sections, like the CD characters, or other Allies like Meramon and Frigimon.
We also need to make sure there is at most one picture per form of a character - Wizardmon shouldn't have had 3 pics, for example. The least copyrighted pics are the white background ones we like to use anyway, so let's try to replace other pics with those.
Thanks for your support, and for your help!KrytenKoro 05:35, 26 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Massive Cleanup 

message: I believe we should do something about the individual profiles. All of them seem to lack some sort of notability, because basically the majority of them are just summarizations of the character themselves.
I have some information we could use for a "reception" section for the characters, particularly of the Adventure characters. We could analyze how much their character singles sold and how well they ranked on the Oricon charts. (This is Takeru's, for example) In addition, Toei released a series of online polls on their website throughout the end of Adventure and until the end of 02, so we can see who voters voted as the "best" in a certain category.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lullabying (talk • contribs) 19:58, 25 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Massive clean-up in the individual profiles

message: As is noted in the discussion above, the individual characters in these two anime series are not sufficiently notable to justify their own articles. As such, the following articles should be merged here: Taichi "Tai" Kamiya, Yamato "Matt" Ishida, Sora Takenouchi, Biyomon, Koushiro "Izzy" Izumi, Tentomon, Mimi Tachikawa, Palmon, Joe Kido, Gomamon, Takeru "T.K." Takaishi, Patamon, Hikari "Kari" Kamiya, Gatomon, Davis Motomiya, Veemon, Yolei Inoue, Hawkmon, Cody Hida, Armadillomon, Ken Ichijouji, Wormmon, Wizardmon, Willis (Digimon), Diaboromon, Dark Masters, and Yukio Oikawa. Neelix (talk) 14:17, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Of which ancient discussion on this page are you referring? While some of the articles may not warrant their own articles (I'm looking at you, Diaboromon), I don't think that can be said for many on the list you listed. JPG-GR (talk) 21:19, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The above one mentioning that the articles are just talking about the characters, not any notability that they might have  (compare the Evangelion group which, although not the best, at least talks a bit about the reception of the characters and, in the case of Rei Ayanami I believe, a bit of their real-world impact). That's what I gathered, anyway. Also, the Myotismon article seems to have vanished and the content not merged into here - is there anything we might be able to do about that (getting the content that was on the article or something and moving it here; I don't think I saw it). Comics (talk) 23:47, 14 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The two main Digimon in these two series, Agumon and Gabumon, were merged here in individual AfDs. If Agumon and Gabumon are not sufficiently notable to justify their own articles, I can't see that any of the other characters in these series are. As far as I can tell, none of the articles in question provide more sourced information than would be acceptable on an entry in this list. As for Myotismon, no sourced information was included on the article, so information about Myotismon should be added to this list from other sources. Neelix (talk) 13:20, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

text: I included information from the popularity polls and Oricon. Is it not enough? lullabying (talk) 19:25, 15 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: The popularity polls are primary sources. Oricon is a secondary source, but it isn't sufficient in itself to justify a topic's notability. Your contributions aren't going to waste, though; they will be a great asset to the character list. Neelix (talk) 11:35, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

text: I've ceased caring a long time ago about Digimon articles being endlessly condensed into smaller and smaler chunks, but I see no agreement for the merge, and a week is a very short time to wait for articles that have been on Wikipedia longer than you have. Shiroi Hane (talk) 18:58, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: 5 days is the standard time to wait for a response to a suggested merger. No one rebutted my arguments in that time, so I carried out the merger. If you believe that a particular character deserves its own article, feel free to start a splitting discussion. Neelix (talk) 19:04, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

text: See my split discussion. I do not believe you really gained conensus, as Animebot removed your notificaitons early, as you did not link them back here. — trlkly 07:23, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merger with individual character articles 

message: While I do see need for the recent character profile merges, I think Taichi "Tai" Kamiya should get his own article, mainly because he is the poster boy of the Adventure franchise and is now also appearing in the Xros Wars series. An outside influence he has was that his image was parodied in a short of Angela Anaconda, though it was tied to Digimon: The Movie.
Also, on the character descriptions, to avoid less clutter, I think we should list the children first and then their Digimon instead of together as a unit. lullabying (talk) 02:13, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Clean up for Digimon Adventure characters article 

message: Taichi Yagami was notable enough to have a separate article (as he's one of the most well-known faces of the franchise), but I believe Yamato Ishida should get one too. He's the most popular male character in the series and theme songs have been released under his (band) name in real life. The only task we'd probably have to do is find reviews certifying his reception, which isn't difficult since most of the articles that discuss Taichi also discuss him as well. lullabying (talk) 21:42, 5 September 2018 (UTC)

message: tagged this article for WP:SPLIT to List of Digimon Adventure (2020 TV series) characters but did not start a discussion discussing why, so I will start the discussion. I do not believe that the article should be split. The characters are the same, albeit with a different cast in a different continuity, and there is not enough sourced information that would make it necessary to have a split article. lullabying (talk) 02:31, 26 July 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: As I said before, it still might be early for a split, which is why I suggested to at least add the new voice cast to the current page in the meanwhile. We still haven't been properly introduced to Takeru and Hikari as DigiDestined yet or have seen Patamon and Gatomon in-series proper. I think that once we have enough episodes with them and what their dynamics are are defined enough, it would be safe to make the page split then. BJnCCs (talk) 17:33, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
