A list of characters in one film. There is no need for a list of characters in one film. If it was a series, it would be necessary. This article is covered enough in the film article. Joe Chill (talk) 16:00, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep The film in notable enough to deserve an extra article for the characters SPLETTE :] How's my driving? 17:06, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep per splette. SpikeJones (talk) 17:25, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep. This was originally spun out of the main article on the basis of length, a concern that I think still applies. I just don't see the potential for the massive cutting (over 50%) that would make this content fit into the parent article. Secondly, though they have appeared in only one "major motion picture" these characters have appeared in a variety of other media including a direct to DVD short film, a video game with 2 squeals, and an ice show. This relatively wide exposure for characters from a single film, makes broad coverage appropriate. Eluchil404 (talk) 21:04, 19 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep for the aforementioned rationales. Nightscream (talk) 01:36, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment wouldnt it make sense to rename the article Characters in The Incredibles, as naming it a list implies (to me) a less extensive write up on each, with links to pages that cover in more depth. Or is there a history of lists with longer writeups?Mercurywoodrose (talk) 02:09, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Keep Well written. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 04:32, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- Keep -- but. The main characters all have their own articles; we don't need their information spread between the main The Incredibles article, their individual articles, and this list. I would prefer to see the main characters removed and leave this list for the minor characters who don't have their own articles and whose details would be excessive for the main article. A lot of the information here is just plot summary anyway. Powers T 13:02, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
