Dampe should be renamed "Dampé" as that is the correct spelling used in the games.

The women antagonists page should be renamed Female Antagonists, because the female protagonists page says female, so that way we're being consistent.

Scratch that. Someone deleted the page, even though everything else about the articles was different entirely.

EDIT: I was wrong, the page just doesn't come up when searched for. Strange.

Got that one too, although I'm wondering why there is a blank page for that game up.

Because 'The Handsome Men' is not a character, rather it should be a concept."
I copied over the data and put the character page up for deletion, there is no combine button actually.

I have an unusual request, I guess. I want a correctly spelled page to be named incorrectly, so to speak. I've spoken to both Axersia (a long time ago) and Endogene, and they agreed to the changes (Axersia even told me to post here... I didn't dare ^_^;), but these are concept pages, and they are unable to rename them for some reason. So I guess staff members are the only ones that can do this...

I want these changed because people keep adding characters / games to these pages that don't belong, and the change in name will hopefully prevent that (or help a bit, anyway). I don't really like the idea of renaming them... Yesterday I found a lot of characters added to the Protector page... and none of them belonged. ^_^; Since these are class pages from certain games (I was told I could create pages for them), only characters in those games that were of that class could be added to the page...

Please change:
Medic -> Medic (Etrian Odyssey)
Gunner -> Gunner (Etrian Odyssey)
Protector -> Protector (Etrian Odyssey)

Priest -> Priest (Ragnarok Online)

These are the ones that are most edited (the gunner not as much... but Yuna will be added there again, I suspect). The Medic page, at one point, was completely changed to be a general medic page (Axersia changed it back). The Gunner class is from EOII, but I prefer the II not to be added to the name, in case there are sequels and that class apears there, too. So the (Etrian Odyssey) would kind of mean "from the Etrian Odyssey games". But, if whoever renames these wants to add the II, well, go ahead. ^_^

If, for consistency's sake, all classes should be renamed similarly, here are all existing class pages for these games (again, I don't like the idea, and would prefer this to be done only to the most edited or likely to be edited ones, if at all):

From the Etrian Odyssey games: Alchemist, Dark Hunter, Troubadour, Hexer, War Magus (EOII), Landsknecht, Ronin, Survivalist (the Beast class has already been "named incorrectly")
From the Ragnarok Online games: Acolyte

Sorry for making such a long post...

It's not necessarily misspelled, but I think Christopher Smith should have his full name, Christopher Corey Smith, to alleviate confusion.

Desert Strike Series
Should be named, "Strike Series" since only the first game was "Desert Strike".  That's going  to be a fun page to edit...I keep seeing Desert Strike in the top 10 pages that need help, so I guess I'll have to dust off my SNES copy and give it a good ol' playthrough. Kind of interested in seeing the differences between it and the Genesis version, too. Everyone seemed to say that the Genny had the best port.

Oh how I wish that I'd picked up that ubercheap complete copy of Nuclear Strike on N64 a few years back, too. :(

This problem from ~3 months ago still exists. :(

Also, "Master Chief" should be renamed "Master Chief Petty Officer John-117" with "Master Chief" added as an alias. Master Chief is a shortened version of his rank, not his name. It's a similar to the (correctly named) "Sergeant Major Avery Junior Johnson", who's page would be equally incorrect had it been named, "Sarge", "Sergeant Major" or "Sergeant Major Johnson".

I'm not going to rename Master Chief at this time...I'd like to see what some other people have to say about it before taking any action.  Since MCPO John-117 is commonly referred to by virtually everyone who has played any of the HALO games as Master Chief, I think it's appropriate to leave that as the name of the page and simply add Spartan-117 and/or John-117 as an alias.

If you feel that strongly about it, create a new thread in the Delete & Combine Requests forum and let people argue about it for a few days, then we'll take it from there.

As far as the Spyro 2 "problem"...I'm not sure how ( ) would be handled in the name field, so I'm not even going to try that one.  I personally think that one is best left as-is.

People commonly call Call of Duty: World at War "CoD5", but that doesn't mean the page should be named "Call of Duty 5". Likewise, damn near every military-based game has characters referred to by either their rank, last name or nickname instead of their full names. That doesn't mean the pages should be named "Captain" instead of "Jean-Luc Picard", "Baker" instead of "Matt Baker" or "Soap" instead of "John Mactavish".

I'd be down for ditching the rank from the names of the pages, though (considering characters can get promoted and demoted throughout a series). Failing that, MacTavish needs the "Sgt" in his title changed to "Sergeant".

Well I've given my opinion and I'm not going to change anything, I think this should be discussed in it's own thread.  It's sort of a major change, one that I'm not sure how others feel about it and I'm not sure it's even necessary.  Create a poll if you want.

Why bother? It's pretty obvious that no one is ever going to fix it. Wishing for pages to be properly named is like wishing for a page versioning system to protect against vandals. It'll never happen because it's so low on the priority list for anyone that has any ability to correct the issue.

Get a hold of yourself, man.  If I thought the change was appropriate or warranted, I could have done it in five seconds.  Since you're not going to create a thread about it and have a discussion with other members of the community on whether the name should be changed or not, I'll consider this matter closed for now.
