I just chanced across this page while on the customized Google search engine. This page needs to either be cut or fixed and linked to other pages.

Please help out our The History Of Video Games page.

I hollered to get your title and trope swapped around properly, don't change them please.

What's wrong with the pages?

The discussion title and the linked article were put in the wrong way around. (Ah, I see that was just fixed.)

As for the article that should have been linked, Disney Villains, it's a character page that borrows characters from several works, putting them together for no better reason than Evil Is Cool. Disney Villain's Revenge is the closest work page, and it's clearly not for that.

Disney Princess has a character page, so there's precedent... except that the Disney Villains don't have a concentrated crossover line dedicated to them. I vote cut and move relevant tropes to the respective works pages (assuming they aren't there already).

I say keep. The villains tend to have a fanbase. We should probably mark it as a Just for Fun page though.

I'm on the internet. My arguments are invalid.

Perhaps we could set up characters pages for the works these are from (or, for whichever of those works don't have characters pages already) and shift the villains over to their respective characters pages?

Something like that. I don't think we want character sheets floating around by themselves with no main article. If nothing else its a waste of the material since they aren't very accessible.

There is, believe it or not, and actual line dedicated to the Villains. It is obviously not as popular with Disney's core demographic—that is, children—but it does exist.

Hooking it to a work page is probably a good idea.

Unless the Disney Villain toy line has any sort of special characterisation or design to the characters, this is just duplicative of individudal series character sheets.

If the page is kept, it should only include the villains who've actually appeared in Disney Villains media.

I agree that making it a Just for Fun page would be one possible solution. Another would be to rework the page to describe the trope In A Disney Production The Villain Is Likely To Be The Most Memorable Character (though probably not with that exact name).

What about broader sheets for the Disney Animated Canon? We often split character sheets that are large enough. And the canon has a couple sub-pages for characters. Why not a broader one?

Anyone still interested in this?

Clocking due to inactivity.

Waiting on a TRS slot? Finishing off one of these cleaning efforts will usually open one up.
