Merge

this page should NOT be deleted it is true that dark magician cards are found in here but so are others live white and ebon magicians as well as silent magician and so many others that are not dark magician related (jun 23 2012)jemjosher

This page is a shortened version of the Dark Magicians page, and should be deleted, not merged with the original. Jon Kovacs (talk • contribs) 22:10, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

I suggested a merge because there is valid information on both pages. Info from both pages should be incorporated into the article. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 23:02, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

There may be valid information, however, it can be put on the other page, which is more complete. Jon Kovacs (talk • contribs) 23:07, January 18, 2011 (UTC)

Delete, there is not enough inter-support for this to be its own archetype. 72.229.188.248 (talk) 04:05, January 21, 2011 (UTC)

Magicians have enough support to be a dedicated deck. If anything, this page needs extending as the majority of Magicians (Not Dark Magicians) use Spell Counters as well. If this page is insubstantial, it should first be considered for re-writing/extension, then deletion. Correct? ChocolateSerial (talk • contribs) 19:06, April 18, 2011 (UTC)

It looked like this was heading for merger. What happened? They're info in neigh identical, and "Magician" is a more encompassing name, since not all "Dark Magicians" are "Dark" "Magicians". If someone else doesn't merge them, I will. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 16:55, April 3, 2012 (UTC)

Delete

Shouldn't this page be deleted? I think its the same with the Dark Magician (series). It has no "theme" to be called a series except the fact that they have "Magician" in their names and it also uses a fanmade image. Shouldnt we delete this? ----SharkTenjo 03:27, June 19, 2012 (UTC)

Yes, the link these monsters share is poor and this page should be deleted. It's pretty much a carbon copy of Dark Magician (series) anyway, so nothing of value will be lost. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 16:37, June 20, 2012 (UTC)

So why isn't this still deleted? --SharkTenjo

I thought this had a different picture, but over all I don't think that it should be deleted, this is the place I go to if I'm NOT looking for a card related to the dark magician that IS a magician. Unless its a different page i am thinking of. --I will Become #1 for everything I do best at! (talk • contribs) 22:16, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

"Dark Magician" is a main force while "Magician" is a group of spellcaster, which mean they are not same kind. It's like you put "Elemental HERO Knospe" in the place of "Dark Magician" while "Magician" being "Elemental HERO". That's the same reason. --iFredCat 22:18, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

What I meant was not elemental hero but other cards with "Magician" in the cards name, and I was right, this use to have a different picture, and I still have it saved! this is the picture:

I only added it again because it would have taken too long to find the original from which I saved it from. but does any one remember this picture? if not, that's OK, but as you can see in the image, it shows not only the monsters that are related to the dark magician, but also other monsters that have magician in there name.--I will Become #1 for everything I do best at!

The problem with the page, as I said earlier, is that the only thing these monsters have in common is that they're all Spellcasters with the word "Magician" in their names. Series go by theme; wouldn't make a page for all Beasts with "Tiger" in their name or Plants with "Flower" in their name. This page has nothing to distinguish is from the other, and should be deleted. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 22:34, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

Agreed, that's why we should put "Dark Magician" series into "Magician" article and treated it like "Elemental HERO Knospe" being ace at a point. --iFredCat 22:36, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

No, Dark Magician (series) has strong name and appearance themes and should remain its own article. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 22:40, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

If the page is deleted, please make links to other magicians in the dark magician page. --I will Become #1 for everything I do best at! (talk • contribs) 22:43, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

I suggest if you're eager to have them maintained as a list somewhere, you make a new section on the Billy Deck page. That place is better suited than the Dark Magician series page for them. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 22:49, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

Oh sh- you're right, I had forgot that article existed! --iFredCat 22:50, September 17, 2012 (UTC)

I've added all the "members" to the Billy Deck page. We can remove the links from the members pages and make this page a redirect. --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 19:01, September 22, 2012 (UTC)
