:o.o the reason that they exist only here, is because the page on them has yet to be written. Think of it as a preemptive retaliation. ^^ you're always welcome to go in and start creating the pages that exist only as links right now. Between this page and the [[In-game timeline|time line]], there should be enough to at least get something started. --[[User:Sleepykitty|Sleepy Kitty]] 08:22, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
::That's my point, though.  If a character only exists as a name in the backstory, and nothing is known about them except what is mentioned in that backstory, do they deserve a page that contains nothing but a repeat of that information?  I would have no problem creating a whole bunch of tiny articles about historical heroes, but it wouldn't add a single piece of content.  It would just be a copy/paste of what's already written. It makes more sense to me to just remove the links, since the history and the time line already contain everything we know about them. [[User:SpaceNut|SpaceNut]] 08:49, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

That's my point, though. If a character only exists as a name in the backstory, and nothing is known about them except what is mentioned in that backstory, do they deserve a page that contains nothing but a repeat of that information? I would have no problem creating a whole bunch of tiny articles about historical heroes, but it wouldn't add a single piece of content. It would just be a copy/paste of what's already written.
