Characters in the "Halloween" series[edit]

Unencyclopedic list-ish article. Not really a list, not really an article. Largely redundant with the articles in Category:Halloween (film series) characters. At best, any verifiable and original content should be merged with the appropriate Halloween articles. Kafziel ^Talk 16:31, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, nothing outrageous here when compared to other List of characters in X articles. Michael Myers (Halloween) exists, Laurie Strode exists, so rename to List of minor characters in the Halloween series (no quote marks please), and tag for cleanup. --Dhartung | Talk 20:58, 13 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, rename to "List of characters in the Halloween series", character lists are okay per WP:WAF since they have the potential to give a synopsis about each character (which this article looks like it does), which a category cannot do. Axem Titanium 05:50, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I guess I should clarify that I'm not saying that the category takes the place of a list. I'm saying that the people on this list already have their own complete articles, such as Laurie Strode or Samuel J. Loomis, which can be found in that category. Everything here that's notable is redundant to those articles. Kafziel ^Talk 08:27, 14 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, rename and tag for cleanup thanks/Fenton, Matthew Lexic Dark 52278 Alpha 771 19:02, 20 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
