thread_title:  External links modified (January 2018) 

message: Since there's been some major additions and some disagreements, might be worth hammering out things on the talk. Back in the day, we added a "recurring characters" threshold to try and cut down on some of the character listing; nonetheless, the article has ballooned to over 100KB prose size (18703 words) and that's really way too big. I recommend further restricting the list to only major supporting characters who regularly appear, and those that can have out-of-universe information added about them. A character appearing in two or three books, especially when those books don't have articles of their own, doesn't need to be included. Thoughts? Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 17:05, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: The major problem is that a lot of these additions cannot be verified without a primary source, and thus fall afoul of WP:V in spirit. If it can't be proven without "look at a plot summary", they aren't majorly important characters that should be covered. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 22:46, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

message: I don't believe Gravemind is a notable character that passes WP:GNG. The one real SIGCOV I found is in his section in the List of Halo characters, everything in his own article from secondary sources is fairly trivial. Please tell me if I'm missing something.  ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:14, 19 June 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't have an issue folding the content in here. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 18:03, 19 June 2023 (UTC)

text: *Support for nom. Fuchs doesn't have problem with it being merged. GreenishPickle!  (🔔) 13:06, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

text: *:It's good you agree, though I should note not to simply state opinions like "per this other person" - they have a harder time holding up under argument than each person stating their own reasoning individually.  ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:48, 20 June 2023 (UTC)

text: My position hasn't changed. Redirect the article itself to its entry on List of Halo characters, but preserve most of the content to Flood (Halo) since we now know that in-universe, there can be potentially more then one Gravemind as it is a manifestation of the final stage of the Flood life cycle. Haleth (talk) 12:53, 26 July 2023 (UTC)

text: I think List of characters makes more sense as a merge target, as most of the content about his development is either already redundant with Flood or not relevant (any of the plot summary.) Some of the content about the Gravemind's reception might make sense in the Flood article, but the lion's share would be better in the list. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs talk 18:17, 26 July 2023 (UTC)
