Fanname
- I don't think we should use fannames. I believe it should be moved to Galactic Grunt (DPA) or something like that. Fannames go to trivia. --Maxim 07:50, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- It has been ageeed that we would keep it as the fan name for now--☆Coolピカチュウ! 08:06, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- What does "for now" mean? He will never have an official name, most probably... And since we don't use Coronis's names, we shouldn't use other fannames too. --Maxim 08:10, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- I agree with Maxim. No fan-names. -Sketch 10:21, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- I Disagree with all of you. Delete this page.--FF(edits•talk) 10:39, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- He is a recurring character that is deserving of his own page. -Sketch 10:42, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Fan names aren't exactly a territory I particularly wanted to have to enter either. However, he is a notable character and he has no official name. "Galactic Grunt (DPA)" feels a little generic to me (especially provided that he isn't the only Galactic Grunt in the series, even if none of the others are notable) and something like "The Galactic Grunt with the swollen butt" is too long winded. "Uranus", while it is a fan name, is concise and easily differentiates the character from other grunts without resorting to "The Galactic Grunt with the swollen butt". (Honestly, as much as I love the guy, back when I was writing the chapter summaries I really had to struggle not to make his "name" too long winded every time he appeared.) In my opinion, "Uranus" should be sufficient. (Also... Regarding FF, delete the article? Dear god no... I spent over an hour cross referencing stuff with the manga to write the darn thing. @_@) --Sato 15:05, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- Well, but it's still a fanname... Our policies tell us not to use them. Well, so maybe... what about encouraging Viz to use "Uranus" as the official name for that grunt? :P --Maxim 15:24, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but having this article as Uranus is misleading. That's not his name. I'm moving this to Galactic Grunt (DPA) and will change any instance of Uranus to grunt. -Sketch 10:30, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
