Self-Demonstrating Character Pages

I mean, it's written in a vaguely conversational tone, but there's nothing about it that's specific to Bojack.

I agree Bojack should be cut.

A lot of "effort" went into a lot of Bo Jack pages, doesn't mean they were necessarily done well.

This is why there was an entire Short Term Projects thread to clean them up.

I believe in the past I've said that I think Mr. Peanutbutter might be close, but so much of his "voice" is in... well, the vocal performance that I think capturing it in text is an uphill battle. I'm down to cut both of them.

Might also want to bring it up in that thread, btw.

I'm fine with cutting both BoJack pages.

I don't know anything about Deadman from the DCU, but his page doesn't strike me as particularly unique.

And like with Lobo, Deadman has a SelfDemonstrating/ page but no ComicBook/ page (ComicBook.Deadman redirects to SelfDemonstrating.Deadman). Make it third-person and move to ComicBook/?

Superboy-Prime also has the same problem as Deadman: the comic book namespace is a redirect to the self-demonstrating page. So, his page also needs to be split up.

YMMV.The Joker is still self-demonstrating.

I don't think Superboy-Prime needs his own work page, since he's never had his own series. Then again, did Deadman? Considering ComicBook.Deadpool is specifically about the comics and not Deadpool the character, the current consensus seems to be to phase out character pages in the ComicBook/ namespace.

According to Wikipedia, Deadman's had his own limited series a few times. I guess that means he could get a Comic Book page?

Sure, if the page was about the series and not the character.

SCP-682's page is about SCP-682, who is an indestructible reptillian entity who hates all life on Earth. It was originally created in 2015, around 7-8 years after it was first written on the site it was originally written.

First problem, it should have been at SCP 682...

There's already a character entry for SCP-682 in SCP Foundation: SCPs 300 to 999, should any information exclusive to the self-demonstrating page be moved to the character entry?

I don't know why the self-demonstrating page's URL avoided numbers...

Well, page titles can't start with numbers (hence why 24 is located at Series.Twenty Four), so the creator probably assumed titles couldn't include numbers at all.

Should the 682 one be cut?

Need to make sure multiple people are up for cutting 682

I'd vote to cut 682.

Bump, in order to get a vote going on 682.

Was SelfDemonstrating.Fischl ever approved by any chance? This one came out a nowhere a few days ago, with no edit reasons.

I think it's fine. Shows off the character's voice well.

So should SCP-682's page be cut, with any tropes exclusive to it moved into it's character entry?

Technically we haven't voted on it yet.

I think a SelfDemonstrating.Radical Edward page has a lot of potential, but I'm not familiar enough with Cowboy Bebop to write one.

I'll vote to cut 682's page.

If we're counting ~Some Libre, that's three votes to cut 682.
