I created this page since the list of characters uses this categorization. Previously, most of these entries were in the Category:Minor Characters. There are still a few I'm uncertain about. For example, I put Weeny Wikki Beeki Birdi here instead of Category:Legendary Characters but it could be that he/she is fictional though the Pkunk history says he/she was real. And also the Veep-Neep Dynasty is both contemporary and in the past, so minor character or backstory character? --Fyzixfighter 21:44, 9 Nov 2005 (CET)
- I'm not sure about that. "Characters" refers to individuals, does it not? In that case, I probably wouldn't put Veep-Neep Dynasty in EITHER of those categories. This category's pretty good, and state that this category is for historical characters that are not fictional.
- Now, do we make any or all of these categories (Category:Minor Characters, Category:Game Characters, Category:Backstory Characters, or [[:Category:Legendary Characters) mutually exclusive? ie, any article can only belong to one of these categories at most?
- As for the specific case of Weeny Wikki Beeki Birdi, I would probably count it as fictional. The Pkunk speaker seems to state it as legend instead of "fact". However, I could be wrong about that. --Phoenix (t) 22:58, 9 Nov 2005 (CET)
