Original research, list with no clear inclusion criteria (WP:IINFO): It is not clear what "exotic" means as applied to fictional extraterrestrial life-forms. Sandstein 11:25, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to other Lists of fictional extraterrestrials, possibly List of exotic alien species - I believe the inclusion criteria is that it does not fit in any other of the lists of aliens. Salvidrim! 11:29, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Discussion is over,
nominated it for speedy deletion.I redirected it to List of exotic alien species#Individual characters. Inclusion criteria is (was) supposed to be something along the lines of Fictional extraterrestrial characters who exibit forms, abilities, traits far outside what would be considered normal for terrestrial species Merging to List of exotic alien species would defeat the purpose of the original intention of the article. (to separate the individual characters and the general species lists into distinct articles). For each species article I created/started a complimentary article covering individual characters that fit the bill (but don't belong on the list of species) Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find very many examples. Maybe I should just add a section in the list of species for individual characters that are "exotic" and move them into the article space when it gets long enough. Thanks for keeping up Wikipedia though. =] Don't always agree with everything but I honestly do see the other side of this particular fence. Ncboy2010 (talk) 12:21, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
