Question: Is a location OKAY to be put on a character page?

Looking at what I have seen, it is not at all unusual.

Take Real-Time Strategy games - Many of those have their factions listed under character.

Then there's League of Legends, which house locations and factions.

Avatar The Last Airbender also has its factions on the character page.

And let's not even get started on Magic: The Gathering

Add to this that the Nexus is theorized to be sentient, if not sapient, and it is definitely okay to be put on a character page. As it is the realm in which everything takes place, it stands to reason to have it on the main character page rather than a subpage.

I think the character names should be changed on the folders. They should only be what their in-game name is, followed by their title (exceptions for Rexxar and TLV are okay to include all the characters). The Overwatch tab is already setup like this, and I think it looks much cleaner.

I'm mostly bringing this up because "Garrosh Hellscream, Son of Hellscream" looks and sounds ridiculous, but it's also been bugging me for a while. The idea of these pages are that they're about the characters only as they are in HotS, so why should non-HotS stuff (their full names) be so front and center?

Thoughts?

EDIT: I'm just gonna go ahead and do it. I doubt anybody actually looks at this page, and I have no clue how to make these things more noticeable. If people disagree, at least something will start the conversation.

Rip it from the HOTS wikia, not from the Warcraft pages, please.

Uh, guys? I think we need someone to work on the pictures department. I'm seeing a bunch of images being added to the page that aren't actually displaying.

You'll need to ask for help in the Wiki Tech Wish List forum.

Also some of the new images are... not exactly matching, for Warcraft. It's like they're ripped from the old Warcraft pages. The Diablo and Starcraft characters have their images ripped from the Heroes Of The Storm, why do we get the ones from WOW, for instance, Illidan and Jaina (made more jarring that WOW Jaina is the white haired grumpy Jaina, whereas HOTS Jaina is the 100% blonde helpful Jaina)...

Can we??

So what's the policy about the character biography, until what part does it have to cover?

I propose that for a character's quote on top is when we select them when we're ready. Because the quotes change when you buy the character and they just say something like "Greetings, friend!" In fact, I think I'll start doing it now...

I propose that we break this up into pages ether for characters from one series, or by class. So a page of warriors, a page for assassins, a page for supports, and a page for assassin.

EDIT: Wrong place to post...

Anyway, I would suggest that classes seems to be the way to go, otherwise, the Diablo, Warcraft and Starcraft pages will be quick enough to get flooded, whereas the Retro page will end up very bare. I mean really, aside of Lost Vikings and later probably Blackthorne and Rock N Roll racing, there's going to be less characters there compared to the story juggernauts that are the big 3.
