Rogerb-on-NAO: Character Death or Monster Death?

2008-06-03T22:07:29Z

Character Death or Monster Death?

New page

== Character Death or Monster Death? ==

This page has been both in the past; currently both meanings point here in many cases. Clearly one or the other is more important for different people.

I propose that this page is moved to "Death (character)" and "Death (disambiguation)" is cleaned up and moved here. Then at worst links to "Death/death" link to a disambiguation page, rather than the wrong page. This is per [[Wikihack:Style guide]], as it seems neither use dominates.
