Talk:Characters Whose Names End with "er"

Not to be rude, but...
Edit
...what is the point of this page?? Who cares what sound a character's name ends in? Garrettk41 18:26, February 11, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, but I love these kinds of pages! They're interesting, (random) and just fun to read!
- I agree. Although, I admit, it is a pretty interesting page. -- User:TenCents
- As long as this was brought up, I have to admit that I too think this page is pretty pointless. It comes across as obsessive compulsive.--Gonzofan 08:33, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
- Category:Lists is full of kind of just for fun pages, although as you'll note on the history, this dates back to 2006. As the Wiki has grown and changed, we've mostly cut down on it now. But here, as opposed to main articles, it's pretty harmless. It's only been noticed because Brad's been updating it. Personally I think it would seem less "obsessive" if it stuck to actual *names* (i.e. omitting things like "Singer" etc.) I don't think it does any harm, but looking at it compared with what we do have (this was back when we had "Characters whose names sound a bit rude" and other pages), it does stick out (no visual comparisons or tracking of a specific character type or history or providing information, like Character birthdays, and so on). So I could go either way but it's only fair first to hear from some of the folks involved in the earlier stages of the page as well. -- Andrew Leal (talk) 15:53, February 12, 2012 (UTC)
- I've always found this list pointless as well. --Minor muppetz 16:38, February 13, 2012 (UTC)
