We'd all prefer that the creators of the page had given their attentions to something of a "core" encyclopedic nature, I guess, but this is clearly of interest to any player of the game, and the main article for the game is already too large to contain it. Some of the how-to info should be stripped.
355:
Now that I think about it the article should probably be renamed. Morrowind is a huge game with over 1000 characters and the article only lists a few of the most significant ones. Maybe it should simply be called "Characters in
Morrowind" or maybe "Notable characters in Morrowind".
209:. The content of Knowledge will always reflect what readers want to write about. Articles like this exist in large measure so that each of these minor characters does not end up having a separate article. This is probably not what the nominator or deleters here want.
345:
Is this really the first time this kind of thing has occured such that it could be called precedent setting? I mean there are tons of articles on video game characters. Anyway I think it's fair to say that
Knowledge has a somewhat broader scope than other encyclopedias.

As Bobby Smith says above, the majority of the article is not a walkthrough, but contains legitimate content. The fact that part of the article contains walkthrough content is a reason for cleanup, not deletion.
267:
Some characters from other games have their personal pages in the main namespace, this is just a common one for all. I've started the cleanup of nonnecessary how-tos.
181:& some cleanup. Better an all-encompassing article/list than having articles spring into existence for each one (as such, like one of the lists found at
114:
In the light of other comments and a review of the material, I think that removing the how-to parts of the article would be an efficient compromise.
154:
Useful character list from a very notable game. Some of the how-to material should go, but that's not a reason for deletion of the whole thing.
332:
we set a precedent that if the underlying game, show, movie, book, etc., is notable so is a list of its "minor characters". Get ready!
