This article is extremely detailed! Awesome! Just keep out the fan fictionTiman123 04:20, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

This page is looking pretty good! However, many of the character descriptions seem to be a bit overlong, containing extraneous detail (like calling Gunther the "commandant of the weapons course") and lots of speculation that isn't directly supported by the game. I'd think that ideally, each character should get a good-sized paragraph at most. Clayhalliwell 22:20, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

I just made this page a week or so ago by merging a bunch of single character pages together. Because many of them were once single pages is probably why a lot of the descriptions are over-long, as the author was trying to pad them a bit. If you see any way to improve this page feel free to go to it. -- Grandpafootsoldier 07:07, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Original research, speculation and out-right bullshit

A lot of this article seems to be either invented by the contributer or possibly taken from fan-fiction works, which obviously isn't canon and therefore needs to be removed. If anyone else wants to improve this article, as well as Minor Deus Ex characters can you please add requests for citation tags where appropriate by adding {{fact}} after any suspect statements made in the article, and deleting any disputable statement if no citation is given after a few days. It would also be helpful if any editors contributing new information remember to include citations too. - 81.178.102.118 22:25, 15 October 2006 (UTC)

Agreed - specifically, does anyone know of any canonical evidence for "Her rifle, a miniaturized variant, was implanted into her right arm during her augmentation process"? (Navarre.) Also, I believe that if you attack Paul on the dock in the first mission, he uses his assault-rifle one-handed against you for a short time - I presume this also happens in a more normal combat situation involving him - this would render "a unique fighting style in that she always fires her assault rifle one-handed, while everyone else in the Deus Ex world has to use both hands to fire that weapon" inaccurate. --Wootery 00:11, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
Another bit of info I don't think is true: when you come back to UNATCO in DX:IW, the bums speculate why the machine was full of lemon lime soda, but I don't believe you find out anywhere why, especially not that it was a conspiracy as this article claims. Can anyone back up the conspiracy theory? This, however, is a minor note at best. ThanatosInstinct 02:58, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
Alright the Navarre section really needs to be revamped, I mean no where in the game is it decalred shes 5'10" and worked with other organizations. I think I'll edit around a little. Concerning the Lemon Lime well It's either a mistake on the part of the mechanic or a joke played on the entire staff considering they say the entire machine is filled with Lemon Lime.

--Septon 01:48, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Agreed, there are unverifyable facts for a few of the characters, including sections on the height of some of the characters. It lists the height of Gunther Hermann as roughly 6'8" and as Septon mentioned, Anna Navarre at 5'10", none of this data can be verified, it think it should be cleaned up...

[edit] Fair Use Rationales and Tiny American Flags for Everyone!

Okay, I've added fair use rationales to all the surviving images in this article. BetacommandMonster ate some of them though. They'll need to be re-uploaded. Clayhalliwell (talk) 20:42, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
