Talk:List of minor Star Wars characters

Table of contents

The table of contents is obscenely long; it's practically the same length of the article, which makes it difficult to navigate. Any way the characters could be divided up into subcategories? Beemer69 ^chitchat 18:00, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

here's a better idea, let's slash and burn the in-universe nonsense and read about those people as the fictional objects of a narrative that they are. it's a radical idea but one supported by.. well every policy and guideline going... --Allemandtando (talk) 14:30, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Amen. This is just absurd. Niczar (talk) 22:38, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Revamp

I'm working on amalgamating this and all the other god-awful lists at Category:Lists_of_Star_Wars_characters to remove all the ORish and arbitrary topics (i.e. what makes a character a "villain"? what if he/she later is "good"?) and repetition (e.g. Leia shows up on several of them). Once I've squished them together, they can be broken up just alphabetically like the slightly-less-crappy Star Trek character lists. I've copy-and-pasted these lists as of ~11:30EST 3 Oct -- if you make any additions to this list, I'll try to be sure to maintain them in the reworked version, but please be mindful that something might accidentally be overlooked. Thanks! --EEMIV (talk) 15:39, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

Redirect

I plan on Monday to replace the current content of List of Star Wars characters with the material at User:EEMIV/StarWarsCharacters, and then to redirect this page to that updated list. Much of the content on this page will go away -- for the better. Wikipedia is an indiscriminate collection of information, even on its list pages, and many of the entries were are truly insignificant characters. If you take exception to this plan, please say so here. --EEMIV (talk) 11:20, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
