There is a moratorium on merging character pages, so don't ask for that.
Character pages are a large chunk of the wiki, but they're often filled with problems that don't get resolved. These problems include:
- Zero Context Examples
- Indentation problems, including bulleting tropes under supertropes or tropeslashing
- Spoiler tag misuse
- A lack of alphabetization
- Empty character folders
- Plagiarized character descriptions
- Misused tropes, or tropes that don't belong on character pages
- Broken or incorrect formatting
- References to Dummied Out content for video game characters.
- YMMV / Trivia trope mentions
Per How to Create a Character Page, character pages should only include tropes that describe the characters. These tropes should fall under Characterization Tropes or one of its related indexes, Unless they're recurring character traits (distinctive things that the character does repeatedly).
If you're unsure what counts as a character trope, you can ask about that at Are These Character Tropes
.
All characters must have at least one contextualized trope for their section or folder to be visible. If you find a character that has no contextualized tropes present, comment out the entire section and add this tag:

Other relevant threads:
- Problems with pre-existing images on Characters page need to go via Image Pickin'
. Low quality images can usually be upgraded without discussion, but don't change or delete images without Image Pickin' approval.
- Contentious characters attracting complaints and exaggerations (e.g. when their status as The Scrappy starts impacting examples for other tropes) have their own thread
.
- Character-Specific Pages have their own separate cleanup thread
- Self-demonstrating character pages also have their own thread
.
- Inanimate objects and locations on character pages have their own cleanup thread
- Character pages for Reality Show contestants are on-topic here, but there's also a dedicated Reality Show cleanup thread
which deals with the No Real Life Examples, Please! grey areas these shows create, and may sometimes be a better place to discuss them.
- Character pages for the Marvel Cinematic Universe have a dedicated thread here

Damn. I knew I missed a couple. I'll get on those soon.
Edit: Ok now I'm done. I took care of Betty and Flame Princess.

It's gonna be fun on the bun!
Sorry to disturb again, but Martin Mertens is in both Adventure Time: Recurring Antagonists and Adventure Time: Other Characters.
Characters.Fate Strange Fake has four subpages that I think are too small on their own. I think it would be best to instead merge both false and true Masters and Servants to just Masters and Servants.
- Characters.Fate Strange Fake Masters (~82,000)
- Characters.Fate Strange Fake Servants (~108,000)
There's also "Other Characters" that might be suited to a subpage so to convert the main character page into an index. I could also instead turn the 'Masters' page into a Human Characters page. Granted there some non-human character folders in 'others' but that feels like an argument of semantics.

From CrossCode, the folders for Lea and C'tron contain self fulfilling spoilers, while the folders for The Blue Avatar and Sidwell are pretty much entirely tags
I was thinking of making all four unmarked spoilers, but I figured I should probably get some kind of consensus first
The pages Kingdom Hearts: Organization XIII and Kingdom Hearts: Ansem and Apprentices seems to have many duplicate characters and tropes.
Similar problem with Kingdom Hearts χ Characters and Kingdom Hearts: Xigbar (the former could also be have some trope duplicated with Kingdom Hearts: Organization XIII, but i'm not 100% sure).
"non-Nobody forms of the members"
They are separate characters then and are not forms technically. Pre-transformation tropes and images can be removed since they're unrelated to XIII activity.
Luxu needs his stuff to be moved, to either.

TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupSame here.
x5 Wait, these four pages add up to at most 200k? Merge them all as Characters.Fate Strange Fake Masters And Servants.

"Thing is, I believe that a single good movie will change your entire life." — Makima | aka Fox | he/she/theyFound some trope abuse and misuse on Dr. Facilier's entry on the Princess and Frog Characters page.
- Dirty Coward: Despite scamming countless people out of their money with his magic and planning to take control of New Orleans for his Friends to have for themselves, no matter what tricks he has to pull to accomplish that, he has the gall to beg for his life when he gets Dragged Off to Hell by those same Friends when his amulet is destroyed by Tiana.
Not a Coward. His reaction to getting dragged off to the voodoo afterlive is justifiable fear. Besides it falls more into Villains Want Mercy trope which is already listed.
This entry should be cut and kept off the page.
EDIT: I'll just assume silence means support and cut the entry if I don't hear back in a couple days.
In regard of the Kingdom Hearts characters that i talked about some post ago, i'm not expert enough to make the changes.

Add it back. At the mercy of the Friends from the Other Side, he outright sells them the souls of an entire city to save his own hide; this is no different from Creek from Trolls 1.
Since I brought this
up at least 3 times on the too-long page thread now and have been completely ignored each time, I'll just bring it up here instead.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance and its sequel have two character pages, which seems to be redundant since a lot of it is just copy and pasted from the former.
I strongly suggest merging all three pages for the I Know What You Did Last Summer film series. They're all short enough, and the ones for the sequels barely even have anything on them. See here and here.
