Talk:Krillin

message: I propose that Krillin be merged with List of characters in Dragon Ball. Looking at the article, there is no outside information, and there is little content, besides a very long plot summary. Any relevant information can easily be merged into the list.

replies: text: The only problem I'm seeing is appearences in other media, so far there really isn't much that isn't directly related to Dragon Ball. DBZROCKSIts over 9000!!! 00:45, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: But that isnt related with WP: Notability, is it?Tintor2 (talk) 00:47, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Its still important for fictional characters, as it helps establish notability. DBZROCKSIts over 9000!!! 00:49, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, but most series like Bleach and Naruto dont have that kind of stuff and the notability is justified with the reception. By the way, I remember that Naruto's author, Masashi Kishimoto, said that his favourite character from DB was Krillin, but I can't find that. Tintor2 (talk) 00:53, 30 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Both Bleach and Naruto character articles indeed have these sections, and while yes, notability is justified with simply a large enough ammount of reception from a variety of reliable third party sources, appearances in other media sections are always in good character articles.

replies: text: Importance in the series is not something needed to have an article. Most of the Yamcha's info from conception and reception were original research and contained unreliable sources.Tintor2 (talk) 23:31, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

text: "OTHERSTUFF" is never an argument for deleting or merging an article. Supporting Krillin's merger only because Yamcha was merged too is not an argument. How much is "enough info on reception and creation"? Who determines that? As Tintor has pointed out, the creation and reception sections in Yamcha's article were mostly OR, while Krillin's clearly pass verifiability. --LoЯd ۞pεth 16:46, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

text:  Enough info is at least 30% of the entire page. And how is OR bad (And not most of it was OR btw, only a portion, and only a couple of sources were unreliable)? Also I fail to see where Krillin is mentioned in some of the refs (for example http://www.mania.com one)? Also one of the main arguments of the ppl supporting the merge was "he was not important later in the series" ... Good grief. SSJ 5 (talk) 01:03, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Then read better. When was OR good? What merge are you talking about? The one from Yamcha?Tintor2 (talk) 01:08, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  Rules of the wikipedia are not to be taken in all seriousness ... A large quantity of articles have OR and they are doing just fine. And yes, I'm talking about Yamcha article. Also, I am reading the ref and I can't find Krillin in the article.  SSJ 5 (talk) 01:13, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: They are doing fine? An article must avoid OR if it has to pass a GA review. If the content is not sourced, it should be deleted.Tintor2 (talk) 01:17, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: The GA reviewers were not chosen by anybody. In the GA page nominations, it says the reviewer can be anybody who has not worked in a nominated article, but they must follow the GA criteria, which it seems it did not follow causing the article to be delisted some time later.Tintor2 (talk) 15:01, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed Merge 

message: I think, that in light of the work that the article has been recieving as of late, we should hold off on a merge. It seems like required information can be added. However, there should be no objections for us to return to a merge discussion should the article be unable to supply enough infomation to warrent keeping its own article.

thread_title:  Postpone Merge? 

message: "In a review for the Broly Triple Feature, Matt Rox stated that he did not understand why Krillin appeared to be the only character to fight Broly in all three movies." - cannot find review - link reference does not work - just watched Broly the Legendary Super Saiyan because of this and Krillin never fought Broly in it. Needs to be removed. False information.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.89.242.227 (talk) 10:50, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: That was my fault. The statement was suppose to say "Krillin appeared to be the only character not to fight Broly in all three movies". Also in the future please put all new discussion you create at the bottom. Thank you. Sarujo (talk) 15:43, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reception dispute 

message: Should the title not be Kurririn instead of Krillin as that was his original name in the manga ie the source material  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Eggilicious (talk • contribs) 09:01, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: There's the issue with common name that dictates that we have to use Krillin as apposed Kurirrin. That's why the Goku and Gohan articles don't use the Son surname. Sarujo (talk) 15:57, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Title 

message: Pretty sure his english name is Krillin in the anime and Manga. As far as I can tell, Wikipedia uses the english names if one is available in the original source material. I'll move it if no one has a reason not to. Magicksthefool (talk) 23:27, 21 April 2015 (UTC)
