Talk:The General - list of appearances

From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference

Deletion[[edit source]]

I'm sure the wiki says that five/six appearances is minimum for a page like this. The Thirteenth Doctor also has six appearances and Courtney Woods has five, and they possess pages like this. These pages have also not been deleted. Therefore, I don't think it should be deleted. Ben Moore512 14:47, May 13, 2018 (UTC)

It's a grey area, one that would certainly merit a forum debate. When the tag was added Santa Claus had seven appearances and the Thirteenth Doctor was deleted when she had five. In any case she is a current recurring character who will definitely appear in more stuff. Erik Ulfriksson has five but only three bullet points. In addition I believe one of the points of lists of appearances were to make the infoboxes smaller and as novelisations shouldn't be in the infobox (unless the character didn't appear in the original thing) this example is reduced to five appearances.
Really, I think that with no concrete rules (that I know of) for this sort of thing whether a page stays or goes depends on if somebody else can be bothered (for want of a better word) to question its creation. Definetely something worth discussing at the Panopticon. --Borisashton 15:33, May 13, 2018 (UTC)
