Honestly, it was kind of a silly thing brought about by a combinaton of pixel art artist-avatar cards that were all the rage on DeviantArt a while back and Fenspace.
I have no issues with nixing the extra data, particularly if it makes things easier to manage.
That's two of the writers okay with the idea, and the rest not offering an opinion after a weekend and a workday. I'll switch the managers' templates over to the displacee template for now, and rename the template when I have time.
Swapping over is now done. (I included birthdays when I had the data - that field wasn't in the manager infobox.) Renaming the template isn't, since that will take much more time than I have available at the moment if I don't want to break the automation I have going.
Speaking of automation, the stats for the managers who have writeup pages now appear on the "Data-Mining the Wiki" lists.
Considering that the automation works just fine as-is, and technically the managers are displacees too, I'm not going to mess with something that works. No renaming the template (and possibly missing something that breaks some automation somewhere).
I just counted the characters listed on the "School ships" page. Assuming we don't bring that asshole bureaucrat from Girls und Panzer into the Metacontinuity, there's 92 characters on the list.
Anybody mind if we only create character pages for the characters who will be important to the story, and don't create character pages for the rest of them?
