Merge[edit]

Why these pages need to merge -- Alfakim --  talk  14:24, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Other articles follow the procedure of listing known members of a race on the race page. See Jaffa, Goa'uld, Tok'ra.
  2. That's where the information is relevant, in context, accessible, and useful.
  3. Having a seperate page for a list merely generates an out-of-place and uninformative load of text that no one's ever likely to read or find in context.
  4. These lists aren't big enough issues in Stargate to warrant seperate articles for themselves.
  5. In each case, e.g. the Athosians, the Athosians are inextricably linked to the Athos article. Athosians are from Athos, Athos is the home of Athosians. The connection is absolute and exclusive, they are bound.
  6. In talking about one, you're inevitably talking about another. Why split it?
  7. Merging these pages would cut down on the number of pages in general (making things generally easier and more informative), and would bring more useful information together, also giving some depth to articles like Athos. Too many seperate lists can be pointless.

Merger of Acastus Kolya[edit]

I propose to merge Acastus Kolya here because he is "just" a recurring character, and his current article does not demonstrate notability through real-world content as outlined in Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) (WP:FICT). There is no need to hurry with a merge, but his article should still either be expanded for casting information, development from a producer's standpoint, and general reception (totalling to at least two solid paragraphs); or be merged as recommended per WP:FICT. Merge discussions usually last between one week and a month, so depending on the comments and article improvement, I'll do what I see fit earlier (I think two weeks) or later (maximum two months).

Fair use rationale for Image:Stargatesora.jpg[edit]

Image:Stargatesora.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
