One page?

Just throwing this out there- should we perhaps link all these one-off Spartanians onto one page? Vympel 00:04, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

I assume you mean doing that instead of independent articles, rather than in addition to? If so, i kind of raised a related point on Policy talk today. Personally i'm very strongly leaning towards the 'rule' i posted there (that things with 'unique designations', or whatever you want to call it, should get their own articles), which is also in accordance with how other wikis do it.

Since these all have their own unique serial numbers, giving them names that are no more or less distinguishable than Konev's and Poplin's (which appear many times and are also mentioned in licensed and fan materials) i think they qualify. For Spartanians that have indistinguishable numbers, those would definitely be more of a list-page sort of thing

I'd like to ultimately catalogue every single vessel and character in the series. For Imperial ships that will be hard (for destroyers and Valkyries, slightly less so, but their numbers are still invisible most of the time), but we're fortunate when it comes to Alliance ones. For unnamed characters i think it will probably end up being list pages almost all the way, because it's pretty hard to come up with distinct names for them  ♥ kine @ 00:46, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

Fair enough. Btw whilst you're uploading screencaps take a look at Episode 102 - its the one instance in the series where a Spartanian uses its foward guns as opposed to its dorsal mounted lasers. They're probably the flechette guns referred to in the licensed material - sort of purple glowing bolts. Cool looking. Vympel 01:49, 16 December 2011 (UTC)

That is interesting, i didn't notice that before  ♥ kine @ 04:24, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
