From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

List of characters in Digimon Adventure is within the scope of WikiProject Digimon, which aims to organize, expand, clean up, and guide Digimon related articles on Wikipedia.

Champion (Part 4 + main article) - Trailmon Maintenance / Etc Source all information (say where info came from, ep numbers, card game data, manga info, etc) Almost all Digimon articles need copy-editing. Create Need English dub music credits for Adventure, Adventure 02, Tamers, and Frontier. Expand Anime articles need rewritten lead sections especially those of Digimon Tamers. Digimon card game could use a lot of love and attention. Digimon video games, (listed on the {{Digimon}} template). Lists of episodes all lists of episodes (1,2,3,4,5) need short summaries. Manga: Digimon Adventure V-Tamer 01, Digimon Next, Digimon Chronicle, D-Cyber

Attention: Another massive article task is on the horizon, and we will be moving many Digimon lists and articles off of Wikipedia and onto a new wiki. See WT:DIGI#Transwiki for the discussion.

Who suggested to put Oikawa's article in the minor character list? That's incredibly stupid. Oikawa may have appeared for only eight episodes, but he was one of the most important characters in the plot of 02. Demon of Light 18:10, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

The vast majority of Digimon articles will be merged. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Digimon Systems Update/Article reorganization, WP:FICT, WP:WAF, WP:ANIME. -- Ned Scott 02:25, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Keep

Let those pages stay separate including Rapidmon's (Armor). I prefer them that way. It will mess up the List of Digimon order with these redirects. Rtkat3 (talk) 10:50, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

I concur merging would cause chaos within the structure of the pages danieljackson 16:29, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

It is a bit late. It's already started and is almost finished. Trainra 10:37, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Splitsection

Section Daemon should be split into separate article, because there is no separate article about this Digimon and there is vast amount of articles about less significant Digimon, which only appear in cards or in only one episode. --83.131.14.250 21:45, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

All -mon articles are currently undergoing a mass-merger, which means all those less significant Digimon who currently have their own articles like Grademon won't soon. Nightmare SE 23:06, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Humans too?

In my Wikipedia travels, I came across this article and thought that it might do well to merge it into this one. However, this article seems exclusively Digimon...are humans allowed too? IzzyFerret 19:12, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

The person depicted in that article is not real, aka. it's fake. Also there will be a few humans who will be merged into this areticle, eventually...trainra 22:02, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

That appears to be a hoax character. I've marked it for deletion. -- Ned Scott 22:17, 27 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Antylamon.gif

Image:Antylamon.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 20:00, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Demi.jpg

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

[edit] Changes

First off, we should add the main chars to this page as "main" links. Also, since many of these characters are in both seasons, we should just remove the dividing construct of which season they premiered in, and alphabetize.

• Digidestined
• Villains
• Other Humans

• Family
• Other?

• Other Digimon?

• Allies?
• Wild?
• Villains' Armies?

Something like that.KrytenKoro 20:02, 22 July 2007 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. Great work! -- Ned Scott 18:17, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

I tried to re-org it today, but Wordpad crashed. gah.KrytenKoro 15:38, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Massive Cleanup

Now that the reorg is complete, we need to do massive cleanup/trimming, as well as filling in missing sections, like the CD characters, or other Allies like Meramon and Frigimon.

We also need to make sure there is at most one picture per form of a character - Wizardmon shouldn't have had 3 pics, for example. The least copyrighted pics are the white background ones we like to use anyway, so let's try to replace other pics with those.

Thanks for your support, and for your help!KrytenKoro 05:35, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Non-free images

It's my understanding that lists that contain non-free images like this are unacceptable. There were similar findings with List of ____ episodes and so forth. There is an image help desk and a talk page dedicated to non-free image use questions, I believe. It would be nice to get a few more opinions on this issue. Please do so before reverting me. Cheers. --MZMcBride (talk) 06:44, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Please actually look at the situation before blindly reverting us. You cannot compare the list of episodes situation to this list, they're completely different. I should know, I was heavily invested in those discussions. -- Ned Scott 06:46, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

I didn't blindly revert anything. I'm saying that the non-free content policy can be tricky, and second or third opinions would be best rather than what appears to be an edit war. --MZMcBride (talk) 06:49, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

This is also being discussed at WT:NFC. -- Ned Scott 22:13, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks, Ned, for raising this issue there. Hopefully, some definitive answers can come about. Cheers. --MZMcBride (talk) 02:28, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
