Secondary characters in Calvin and Hobbes

The main article for Calvin and Hobbes has great summaries for all the secondary characters, minus Uncle Max (I'm sure he deserves a little mention in the main article). While this article has some interesting information, a lot of it is restated in the main article. The rest of the text is decently written, its full of speculated connections/intentions and strips restated in text form. Reading over much of the article, it seems people have just added plausible cruft. Granted, maybe a merge would be better to keep some of the more interesting or important facts or quotes, but I fear if we move too much 'stuff' over to the Calvin and Hobbes page it might actually detract from the quality that article has achieved Ageofe 04:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I disagree. It at least might be merged with the Calvin and Hobbes article. --Amaraiel 03:59, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, there was an 'edit conflict'. Not sure what to do there so I just added the above section of what I was originally going to post Ageofe 04:16, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge: But I am not sure which way. Either the section in Calvin and Hobbes needs to be merged into this article and a link left behind, or Secondary characters in Calvin and Hobbes needs to be merged into the first. Either way, this article appears to have far more trivia than needed, and yet more real content, than in the main article. --Jjamison 04:29, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Merge It's a good article, but the "secondary characters" are actually all the others in Calvin's world besides Hobbes. Either merge with Calvin and Hobbes or combine this with any "character" articles that may have been written about Calvin or about Hobbes. Mandsford 15:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge & Redirect - With the main Calvin and Hobbes article. --Thε Rαnδom Eδιτor (tαlk) 22:51, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Merge and prune. Failing that, make a new Characters in Calvin and Hobbes article and merge the character text from Calvin Hobbes with some (but not all) of this.--Mike Selinker 04:15, 14 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
