Is this for all Mary Sues, or just the particularly obnoxious ones?Miah 79 21:48, May 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * If they're dead, they belong here. ~Neshomeh 02:30, May 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * For future reference, my above statement is no longer the case. The Boarders voted (see the results summed up here), and only the most unique or impactful Sues need be cataloged in the future. ~Neshomeh 23:36, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Sue Evaluation Coordination
Since I think this is where everyone said they want to coordinate from, I'm starting this here. Dividing these Sues up evenly, the four of us would each get 37 Sues to evaluate. As Neshomeh mentioned in the Poll thread, that might involve involve reading the mission the Sue came from, especially if they seem unique, but the article is incomplete. I'd also like to note if a page lacks links, it automatically needs improvment, something I also did not meniton in the thread on the board. Guvnor Of Space 20:49, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Proposed Division of Sues:

Antigone68104: Aeyrn --> Christina Duke

Eileen alphabet: Cordelia Driscol --> Kanami Kimura

Guvnor of Space: Katherine May Gibbs -->Peony

Lunar Huntress: Pheonix --> Zane

Think I can help? I'm set to help too. I'm also willing to get rid of some of my own pages. Jack the Wolf and Dragona might not be too essential.Aster Corbett 23:48, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

To quote the original poll thread " I suggest that members of this group should not have made Sue pages themselves so as to eliminate personal bias, and also that they should be willing to read the missions in question to make the best evaluation and/or improvement(s)." I like this, but if others disagree, that's fine. However, I don't see anything wrong with you removing pages you made. --Guvnor Of Space 23:54, December 9, 2011 (UTC)

Guidelines?
Will the folks reviewing the Sue/Stu pages be recommending guidelines for adding future Sue/Stu pages? I'd hate to see it end up that new ones are never added for fear of not meeting a vague 'significant' enough threshold. For instance before this was started, I was planning on talking to Caddy about adding one for Heather based on her significance to the character of Agent Cadmar, and clear guidelines are comforting to me.

Guidline Proposal:

Uniqueness: If a Sue Stu is particularly unusual, or had a particularly special effect on canon, than they are "unique." For example, a Sue that, say, turns all generic surface into glitter is unique.

Notability: If a Sue or Stu is particularly famous, or from the Original Series, than they are "notable." For example, Laura, of "Legolas by Laura," is a particularly notable Sue.

These are the guidlines propose. Or rather, this is how I interpret the poll results, and therefore the original directive. The idea, I think, is to cut down on standard Sues. In my opinion, Sues whose significance is mainly to an agent do not nessesarily need their own page. Of course, that's my opinion. "Notability" could be interpreted to mean Sues that are of particular importance to particular agents. I think others need to weigh in on this. Guvnor Of Space 00:47, December 11, 2011 (UTC)
