You can play with toys of, will be able to ride rides of, watch in multiple films and shorts, play as in video games, etc. these various characters who are naturally discussed in all the previews and reviews of these various extensions of the franchise. Sincerely, -- 353:
That's done in the Star Wars articles, two of which are featured articles, so it should be perfectly fine to do so with these two. Simple characters like these only need a few sentences anyway. The current information in this article is just filled with useless information.

Please Keep! I can't believe this is up for deletion! Keep it-every little, silly, trivial detail. Isn't this the whole point of Knowledge? Where else are you going to find background info on the early life of Guido the forklift? This is the whole point of Knowledge!
155: 418:. I'm not a huge fan of this article, but because the characters are largely modeled after real-life (notable) vehicles, the level of detail is such that it is far too large to fit into the main article. 149: 116: 517:. Even though this article has undergone many rewrites in its time, surely it can be made notable if characters from the videogames are included here. Plus, with 314:- Film characters are easily described within a cast section, so there is no need to bloat an article by repeating the same plot information over and over again. 377: 83: 78: 680:
The characters appear enough different media that it makes more sense to have a separate article instead of copying the information across several pages.
87: 221:
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.
618:; the article fails to provide real-world context about the fictional elements, especially context that would signify such a list of characters from 406: 70: 402: 550: 170: 447: 137: 204:
Could you elaborate your reasoning for this, I wasn't aware that Knowledge had prohibited list articles for fictional characters.
567:
A list article should consist of links to other articles. Most of the characters are not notable enough to merit their own pages.
649:
The list is detailed and very well done. Those who want to know more about the characters from the movie Car, can find it here.
235:
Thanks for the heads up on that. I see your rationale and agree that we probably don't need a list article for just one movie.
17: 285:
while it is only one movie, it is the topic of numerous childrens books. A merge with Cars would be completely unrealistic.
