- List of major Street Fighter characters (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)
Aside from the fact that this article's title is a complete MISNOMER (none of these characters are major in any way other than being fighters), it's more of a list of trivia than an encyclopedic list og characters. Jonny2x4 03:19, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - Whether this is kept or not, the Trivia sections are full of OR and, well, trivia, and should be nuked. Wickethewok 03:27, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per WP:OR; there is no criteria which defines "major" in the world of SF. Ironically, in terms of SF's story, these characters are minor, hence the reason why "they do not have enough information about them to have their own articles." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mitaphane (talk • contribs)
- Delete All of the useful information should be taken over to the Street Fighter (video game), since all of these "major" characters are from the first Street Fighter game. That pretty much m4akes them non-notable, since the Street Fighter series didn't gain prominence until Street Fighter II. Cheers, Lankybugger 04:19, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or merge with Street Fighter per above. JIP | Talk 06:43, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with Street Fighter (video game); none of these characters are notable for much more than trivia. Yes, even Retsu. JuJube 07:04, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge with Street Fighter (video game) - lack of criteria for inclusion & most seem minor players. SkierRMH 07:55, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge per JuJube and SkierRMH. BuickCenturyDriver 23:38, 11 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - No criteria for 'major' characters of a relatively overlooked video game. Current article is fancruft, and presumably contains original research. --Scottie theNerd 09:30, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, as nominator. Combination 10:50, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Street Fighter (video game). As mentioned, Street Fightert didn't gain prominence until Street Fighter 2. --Alan Au 17:31, 12 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Street Fighter (video game) - If something has to be done about the article, at least this is the better solution. (BackLash 05:44, 13 January 2007 (UTC))[reply]
- Most of the revelant non-trivia information was present in the SF1 article before you created the article. Jonny2x4 17:20, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Merge to Street Fighter (video game). Street Fighter II has had a great influence on our society. To remove the minor characters simply because they didn't appear in as many games as others would be absurd. Also, to remove the minor characters would do the series no justice. I say merge them with the first game.
- Rename to List of minor Street Fighter characters. The Star Wars articles have lots of "List of minor Jedi characters" and "List of minor clones" pages. Things like original research should be removed, but that results in a clean-up tag, not a page destruction. Kimera757 00:22, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- The problem is that theres already an article titled List of minor Street Fighter characters, which itself is also a misnomer considering that it's really a list of NPCs mixed with supporting characters from other media versions of Street Fighter. Jonny2x4 17:20, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Seems like that page doesn't exist. It could have been renamed, had it "lived". Kimera757 01:27, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

- Merge to Street Fighter (video game), but that leaves the problem of what to do with Q's entry then which is smack dab in the middle of it all.--Kung Fu Man 20:39, 16 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep but rename. The article name is misleading; it should be "minor" not "major."Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 16:24, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
