Hello all,

We currently/have always had an underlying issue with regards to dealing with unnamed character articles. This discussion will hopefully set up a guideline on how to deal with the ones we currently have as well as how to deal with them going forward.

N.B. Please do not bring up small articles with named characters as a contrast point, or other articles that aren't meant to biographise a character. One is a non-issue, the other is a non-starter.

These articles usually do not add any value to the wiki and often reiterate things that have already been said in other articles or else can be summarized in 1/2 sentences in another article. Recently I came across a "miscellaneous page" on a wikia that I think would work for Narutopedia as well. Please see here. While I find it unnecessary that named characters be added to such a page, the same concept can be applied for articles such as Hinata's Mother, Haku's parents, Ino, and Choji's mothers (even though they have been featured a great deal more than others).

This way, the information is represented, but at the same time we don't have people constantly creating unnamed character articles, and a guideline on how to deal with articles such as these are created.
