Forum:Marine Rank Categories and Tabs

Weeks/months ago, it has been suggested that all Marine ranks and their related portrait templates be deleted. This matter hasn't been resolved for a very long time, so let's get a forum started. Here are the pages we should deal with:
 * Category:Ranks
 * Marines/High-ranking Marines
 * Marines/Low-ranking Marines
 * Template:Commodores
 * Template:Fleet Admiral
 * Template:Marine Captains
 * Template:Marine Commanders
 * Template:Marine Lieutenant Commander
 * Template:Rear-Admirals
 * Template:Vice-Admirals

How should we deal with all of them? 07:20, December 11, 2011 (UTC)

We have articles about all the ranks. And its nice.

Now for their templates, I say they are fine in the 'Marines' article, that we keep all the templates together. To just delete the rest two tabs and keep that only page. There we have links about the ranks. As for the category 'Ranks', I don't mind keeping that. Its actually good.

As I said in the other talk here, all the info in High-Ranking Marines and Low-Ranking Marines tabs is already on the main page under Rank System and Marine Members headings (or could easily be added with just a sentence or two). Also there is no need to merge the ranks that are long enough to have their own pages (Admiral, Vice Admiral, and one or two others if my memory serves). All the other ranks are yet again just repeats of what is already in the main Marines page and should be turned into redirects. Bastian964 13:06, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

I agree with LPK, its good to have them all together so people can get a quick list of marines without searching throught a lot of pages, thats expecially helpful for people with slow computersDionit 20:08, December 12, 2011 (UTC)

No, don't do that. What's wrong with having minor pages?

Then can we start deleting/merging the lesser pages or something? And we keep the Admiral pages? 07:44, December 15, 2011 (UTC)

Sounds good.. And yeah, the 'Admiral', 'Vice Admiral' and 'Fleet Admiral' pages are all fine..

No, don't do that. What's wrong with having minor pages?

While I agree with the deletion of the "High-ranking Marines" and "Marines/Low-ranking Marines" pages as they practically seemed redundant I don't understand the reason behind considering the thread archived so soon. MasterDeva 10:27, December 19, 2011 (UTC)
