Let's face the facts: Gray Jedi
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gray_Jedi>, Dark Jedi
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Jedi>, Dark side devotee
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_side_devotee>, Sith
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sith>, Jerec
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerec>, Aayla Secura
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aayla_Secura>, Tremayne (Star Wars)
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tremayne_%28Star_Wars%29>, Xanatos (Star
Wars) <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanatos_%28Star_Wars%29>, Asajj
Ventress <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asajj_Ventress>, Sev'rance Tann
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sev%27rance_Tann>, Yuuzhan Vong
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yuuzhan_Vong>, *Lightsaber combat
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightsaber_combat>*, *Force-sensitive
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force-sensitive>* and *Holocron
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holocron>*, to name just a few. I love
everything Star Wars, but notability and MOS guidelines that embrace
this gallopping chaos must be rewritten sooner or later, ideally
complementing each other.
Also, I appreciate that "notability" is an often-abused term, but on the
other hand, any ambiguity in policies and guidelines is likewise prone
to tendentious interpretation. I wouldn't usually argue for stricter
guidelines, but here they are necessary.
And I don't quite understand why people are opposed to inter-article
merging and intra-article merging (i.e. condensing material), seeing as
the current guidelines let everything go unchecked. Guidelines would
ideally not be necessary at all, but the current mess in articles about
fiction doesn't allow for that luxury.
