Bringing this up again, If anything, that image should go on World Of Darkness, but it's just not a great image to begin with.

Re-opened and moved back to IP. I'd be fine with moving the pic to Monster.World Of Darkness.

Considering how short both of those pages are, I'm wondering if they should even be split.

I'd actually prefer getting rid of that image altogether, unless someone can name who's committing the act.

Yes, merge it back with the medium page.

No no no. Oppose, oppose, oppose.
Though if we do, please include the quote.

BUPKIS and against merging. The WoD page should have many more examples, unless this trope is about relatively-complete monsters.

The only decent pic I've been able to find as a possible replacement for the Wo D page is the top pic here

Would someone who thinks the articles should not be merged please explain why they think that? I don't understand.

Lump: The two articles are short, and they are about an extremely similar subject: one (a comic world, specifically) is a subset of the other (all comic worlds, generally). It makes more sense, and it makes the wiki better, for them to be combined into one longer article, instead of two separate shorter articles.

Split: ???

I don't really have an issue with the D&D page being split off, with as many examples under as many different settings and media as there are, unless the thought is to put the book and video game examples on the CM pages for those media.

Specifically, I meant the Monster.Tabletop Games and Monster.World Of Darkness pages. The Monster.Dungeons And Dragons article should probably be merged with the others, too, but given that it's a little longer, it makes more sense for that page to stand alone.

Well, D&D has many examples from multiple media, so that should be separate.
WOD has enough examples that it can stand alone.

The image on the table top Monster page was from the Ht V book Slasher which is basically a rule book for complete monsters with super powers. It's only for characters with no humanity, no redeeming features, and no conscience. It's a fucked up book and it's meant for antagonists.

So it's not even a specific character? [tdown]

The clock's way past due and I'm not seeing consensus on what to do here, so I'm going to go ahead and lock this one.
