Category talk:Protagonists

Relevant?

So back in March, I asked another user, NOUG4AT, if it was okay to create pages for mod protagonists. He thought it was a good idea, so I started relearning SFM just to make renders for these pages. Now I'm wondering if I.. overdid it a bit. For example, I created the page for Carter Grok from the Antlions Everywhere mod. And although it's not a bad mod, the character might not be significant enough to warrant a page, and may be considered irrelevant.
And while I still think my original idea would've been cool to keep doing.. it probably wasn't that good of an idea, so I thought it might be better to focus on more well-known mods, like Nightmare House 2, Entropy : Zero, or Halfquake.
I don't really wanna clutter the wiki, so I'd like to hear someone's input on this aswell. --EvilEMG (talk) 6:05, 9 Aug 2024

I don't have too strong opinion on this but I feel like all these custom mod pages and protagonists that just mention story related stuff contribute nothing to the wiki at this moment and they should have more development related info. For example custom mod pages could have a list of maps + entities used in them which could serve as examples of entity usage etc. stuff like that --Nescius (talk) 11:38, 9 August 2024 (PDT)

Although I can see 'some' merit in having info in case someone wants to develop a mod of a mod and keep things aligned to the story... I don't think the category is needed for that purpose, I don't see why would be navigating from one protagonist to another or be in search of a list of protagonist - if you need that info you should already know exactly who you're looking for?

I have another comment on the pages in the category. All of them minus Freeman and Shephard have a big full-body portrait on the left, and misc images on the right. That's not the common wiki layout. The common layout - be it for weapons, entities, NPCs, lore pages on characters - have just the portrait on the right, and any other images in a gallery somewhere below. The pages as they are, look out of tune with the rest. Cvoxalury (talk) 12:53, 21 August 2024 (PDT)

Okay, thank you for your answers guys :) Got a little carried away, so I'll try to keep what you said in mind next time. I don't really know where to ask for help so I'll do what I can!! --EvilEMG (talk) 6:12, 22 Aug 2024
