Talk:Veteran Oakheart (Fighting the Nightmare)

From Guild Wars 2 Wiki

It is of a different race than Veteran Oakhearts, different appearance, different purpose; basically the only thing shared is the name. Split template is meant to mean separating this and making it a proper page. Sunlion (talk) 02:06, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

I personally don't see the point in splitting. During the story instance, they're just there to be there so the purpose angle is debatable. They simply have a different appearance, same name. No unique abilities/involvement, no unique dialogue. Very minor NPC overall. Nero9012 (talk) 02:37, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
Mostly as a reader, I really agree with the split. Lately I've noticed npcs that have nohting in common but their name being merged, and I think it is bordering on vandalism, since yes, they are minor,so what? Shouldn't wiki be documenting every thing, no matter how minor it is ? Just throwing these npcs with unique race, appearance and context on a page that is 99% about common npc (like plant vs vision?) doesn't make any sense since as I said 99% of the page has nothing than the name common with them. Noticed sometimes even the unique appearance gets lost in the "transition". Tl:dr; do not merge such different npcs, it is bad for the readers and for documenting purposes alike.

Given that this has been split, should other Fighting the Nightmare NPCs receive the same treatment? Sunlion (talk) 06:46, 30 November 2020 (UTC)
