Forums: Index > Imperial Court > Carded personalities and enough content
As you might have noticed, I am trying to actualize the information on the Spider Clan and its personalities. The Samurai of the Spider Clan list contains quite a few links to pages not yet created, some of them to personalities that were released as cards, but have no known story. Is adding the rank (Samurai, Shugenja, Bushi, etc.) and a scan of the picture enough content to merit a page? -- Tensei 18:51, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- First of all. Welcome! Good to see new people coming here. With regards to what merits a page. Just having a card merits a page. Of course, any more information that exists on them would be appreciated, but there are just some people that we only know existed thanks to their card. But they existed nonetheless, and as such I would create a page for them... Hope this answers your question. --Majushi 19:41, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
- Thank you for the welcoming. I will try to add more information as I come by it. However I do have another doubt, hope its okay if I ask it here. When should I describe a character as a bushi versus a samurai, speciallly in Spider? There seem to be some inconsistensy in the Spider Clan List. (Technically bushi entails being a follower of the code of bushido, which Spider members don't usually follow, and samurai means being a member of the highest caste in Rokugan. in the end I guess is a matter of semmantics.) --Tensei 19:12, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
- I agree entirely that Bushi and Samurai is confusing. In general, I use Bushi when it is a martial samurai. The problem with "samurai" is that it covers shugenja, courtiers and in some cases monks also... It is entirely correct to question how Spider Samurai can be "bushi", but for the sake of conformity I am attempting to use "bushi" as a catch all for the martial samurai... Hope this helps... --Majushi 21:59, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
