Lore talk:Big Head

Proposed Deletion

Don't get me wrong, I love Big Head, but I don't think he's a historically significant figure. He's not royalty, he didn't invent anything, he hasn't done anything great, heroic, or particularly heinous (that we know about). He's just a quirky little guy who's obsessed with forks. The fork in question is indeed a very special fork, but the man with the obsession isn't. -MolagBallet (talk) 06:52, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

He is only significant with the Fork, which we do have a lore page for, I think having a picture of him in that lore page, would be better as that page basically goes into his historical relevance. But I honestly agree with MolagBallet that we don't need an independent lore page for Big Head.TheVampKnight (talk) 07:09, 25 August 2021 (UTC)

I'd also point out that it is exceedingly unlikely that the average (or even 99%) of in-universe people know who he even is, which is generally what the lorespace is supposed to be about, things/people/places the average person in Tamriel would know about.

In-universe knowledge is not a factor in determining what we document in lorespace. The people of Tamriel likely know very little about what happens in the Shivering Isles, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't have pages for historically significant madmen such as Lore:Uncle Leo. I don't really think Big Head meets our notability guidelines and I think this information would be better off on the Fork's article as suggested, but I don't object to this page's continued existence either. —⁠Legoless (talk) 13:29, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Similar stance as Legoless, I would be fine for this information to remain in lore space. Notability can be hard to determine but I think an argument for big head can be made to justify it remaining. Dcking20 (talk) 01:02, 27 August 2021 (UTC)

Regarding what Legoless said about a move: all the historic information on this page is already on Lore:Fork of Horripilation anyways, so if nobody objects within a week or so, I'll go ahead and delete it. -MolagBallet (talk) 03:57, 31 August 2021 (UTC)
