Christopher Pike
[edit]Christopher Pike should be in this template since he is one of the 7 main characters in season 2. It's that simple. DGtal (talk) 12:33, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Agreed. Worf is in two series as well. This is not complicated. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 16:54, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- You can't just add important characters here because they already have articles, there needs to be clear criteria for which characters can be added so the template is not overwhelmed. Sticking to original characters makes sense, but does not have to be the only option. - adamstom97 (talk) 18:02, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- @Adamstom.97: Main characters of the series. Season two focuses on Pike. Again, I'm not sure why this is so controversial. Would you recommend removing Worf from the DS9 template? If not, why not? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 19:00, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- Before I added Pike I checked other templates. The criteria was clearly at least the main characters - the characters who's name appears in the opening credits throughout the series or at least the season, since sometimes main characters are removed and replaces, e.g. Pike instead of Lorca or Beverly Crusher replaced by Katherine Pulaski and voce versa. Note that Template:Star Trek: The Next Generation adds also some main recurring characters like Q or Guinan and Template:Star Trek: Deep Space Nine adds Vic Fontaine, Martok and a few more. For the moment we should stick to the main ones since for the moment the only obviously ongoing recurring character with a sizeable role are the Phillipas. DGtal (talk) 22:13, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
- I would be happy to go by main cast members if you guys want to. As long as that limit is manageable (which it obviously is at the moment). - adamstom97 (talk) 09:06, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
- @Adamstom.97: Thanks for this. I love it when the system works and I'm sometimes much less mature and helpful than you. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 09:47, 16 January 2019 (UTC)
