Character Template
I create a template for character pages. What does everyone think? I think the stuff on it are things that would be useful to have removes... But maybe family should be on the template, too... Placed on the Firestar page, for testing and suggestion getting... Kitsufox 17:36, 5 December 2006 (UTC)


 * Relationships may be a decent idea as well, Kitsu. Also, maybe I can write out a brief personality profile for the main characters. What do you think? ...Fernwhisker 5:49 PM, 5 December 2006 (US Central Time)


 * Colons indent, Ferny *wink*. I'm not too worried about the Overall page at this point. The "Template" I'm talking about is that box that shows up on the right. Template:Charcat to see it directly. Takes a bit of coding to create, and I wanted to finalize that befor we get too far into doing individual pages. The problem with "Personality" is it can be sort of... debatable on points... Some things that people claim are "noble" about Firestar, others consider "foolish" or "arrogant"... Kitsufox 00:18, 6 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm not quite used to Wikia yet ^^ I see. It's actually quite a nice template, I believe. Maybe you could add a "FamilY" or "Relationships" heading there, listing cats he is close to. ...Also, I think it'd be a fun project for me if I could write up a sort of small article on Firestar and all his personality sides, along with people's opinions and interpretations of him. I could try that for all the main characters. For example, some think Firestar is foolish or too perfect, but others love him because he's very brave, ect....and he seems to have very strong morals, which can be interpreted either the good way "brave, ect." or the bad way "too perfect." ...I have time to spare, as I'm sure you can see. o.o If there's anything I can do, besides edit spelling and all that, let me know. *wanders away* Fernwhisker 6:43 PM, 5 December 2006 (US Central Time)


 * Could definetly be interesting. And if you want to start writing it already, at the very least I can get it into the Dawn Patrol for you. I'd have to double check the Wikia guidelines befor it gets posted here ;) I think it's alright, but it might not be and I don't wanna get us in trouble. For the Template... I'm thinking 'Family' is the good heading. Genetic relationships are verifiable and in-arguable. Shall have to write that in. Making it flexi in the same way as the Names section...

 * I'll start writing that article as soon as I'm finished with my current assignment for school. Maybe I'll call it "Firestar: A Comprehensive Study," or maybe something less official and more interesting. o.o I'll figure it out. ...Thanks ^^

There is so much more to do!
our only concern is that Squirrelflight basically has two articles. I think that we seriously need to consider creating most of these leaders, even at the expense of the other articles. These cats are among the most important characters in the entire series, and they don't have articles. Someone needs to work on them, and I think this project is an ideal place. Contact me on my talk page with comments please! Thanks! Hobbes15 ( Tiger Headquarters ) 23:59, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
 * How can Squirrelflight and Squirrelpaw articles be practically the only issue of this project. It says it is Project Characters, right. Well, has anyone noticed that we don't even have a Yellowfang article? Blackstar! Leopardstar! Tallstar! Onestar! Brokenstar! Nightstar! And these are only leaders who are missing names! Mistyfoot! Russetfur! There are so many articles to be made that haven't been yet that I can't believe
 * I believe the focus of the project right now is to have only a few pages with good content rather than several pages with almost no content, and even if this isn't true, then most people seem to be starting with Into the Wild or Midnight and continuing from there... Yes, while these characters are important, they're not as important as characters like Firestar and Brambleclaw; yes, while the Wiki does need some work, there's already been quite a lot that's been accomplished here, considering that there's really only been 2-3 active updaters here at a time before.

 * I also consider correcting information, and making sure HUGE ISSUES like multpile pages for many characters don't turn into huge issues later. I believe in working in a focused manner and FINISHING things rather than just slapping things around randomly. I'd rather have a full and complete version of Squirrelflight created and on it's appropriate page with all redirects in place as needed rather than have everything stubbed out with faulty information and duplicates all over the place.

 * Understood. I agree with what you both are saying, but at the same time, I think that the leaders without articles, at least, if not others, should have an article, even if it's just a stub like Tigerstar. If important people like Tallstar are articleless, it sets a bad image for the wiki. I didn't mean to imply that every cat had to have an article at once, but some of the very important ones should have one, even if they're just stubs. Thanks for giving your points of view.

 * This wiki is in far better shape than it was. I'm adding in stubs for Into the Wild characters slowly. But intend to CLAN-BY-CLAN and BOOK-BY-BOOK complete them. Order is better than chaos. And running around willy-nilly because someone might think we're incomplete... Well.. putting in stubs isn't exactly going to alter that idea. Pick a character, focus and complete and we'll get further in the long run. Important characters are all POV. I think completeness is more important than stubbing for the purpose of upping the page-count. Kitsufox 01:11, 7 May 2007 (UTC)
