Category talk:Characters by Family

I know three is the minimum for most categories but I'm starting to feel like these categories should be held to a higher standard. This is an offshoot of Prominent Families, which was started to keep track of families so large and, well, prominent that their in-laws and cousins were bursting forth from every other page of the series in which they were written. Names like Enos, Driver, Galtier, Semphroch/Grimes, Yeager, more recently joined by Radcliff(e). Families of three or four seem to pale in this company. Hell, you could sustain a whole category if some one-line wonder stumbles across the page and happens to give the names of his wife and son.

If not a minimum number of articles, perhaps we could require a certain number of extended family members, or if there are members representing at least three generations. If a halfway decent geneology can be drawn using only characters with their own articles. Thoughts? We could delve into some of the more questionable categories contained herein and run a few experiments before doing anything rash. Turtle Fan 04:17, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
