I think his class would actually be Favored Soul, given the way he casts.--76.21.0.84 13:32, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability[edit]

Whoever tagged this, would you please explain why and how.

I this article has been through that back in November 2007.

No consensus, did you see that ??

What's the point of tagging this once again ??

--Cynehelm (talk) 06:30, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I would say it is because the article has issues that have not been addressed in the mean time. --Jack Merridew 12:41, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Would it of help notability-wise to mention the significance Cleric Quintet characters have played in the Drizzt saga? I know that that is how many people first met Cadderly, Danica, and the Bouldershoulders...heck, even Druzil re-appears, serving Errtu.

I'm not even going to pretend that this is suitable for posting, but for your information:

<With the ways Cadderly, Danica, and the Bouldershoulders have been worked into Salvatore's main Forgotten Realms storylines, the connection between the two should have some mention. Verification of Salvatore's fondness of the characters would primarily be from Salvatore's introduction to the Cleric Quintet, although the characters would play much larger roles after that introduction was written - Ivan and Pikel Bouldershoulder are prominent warriors in the Thousand Orcs books, and Cadderly, Danica and the Bouldershoulders team with Entreri and Jarlaxle to end the threat of the Crystal Shard itself, the sentient artifact that served as the main antagonist in the initial series and a major force in later Drizzt books as well.> - 66.75.128.233 (talk) 21:22, 28 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Recent notability concerns[edit]

The {{importance}} tag is correct here; the article describes a major character in five of NY Times Best Selling author R.A. Salvatore's books. The {{notability}} tag is used when the subject is "most likely non-notable. Use {{Importance}} instead when the subject probably is notable enough, but the article fails to establish notability." -Drilnoth (talk) 17:02, 19 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article isn't about the book--it's about one character in the book. The NYT best seller list might not even show notability for a book, as the list has some integrity problems,[1][2][3], and the book doesn't seem to meet WP:NB. This character's notability would be established using the section of WP:FICT discussing fictional elements--including characters. The article has been tagged for notability against this evolving standard for some time, yet nobody has come forward to demonstrate that "significant coverage of this character exists in reliable, secondary sources". As such, I think the {{notability}} tag is more appropriate than the {{importance}} tag, and have again reverted your edit placing the {{importance}}. -- Mikeblas (talk) 01:52, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could it make more sense, instead of the possibility of deleting the article, to merge it into The Cleric Quintet? That would save the content without having an extra page. -Drilnoth (talk) 02:06, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
