[[Ethan Novakovich]] - Same thing as Solbor and Grathon Tolar, this character has almost nothing to contribute as a character that isn't based on episode summary material. It was nominated fairly recently (last spring) but I can't imagine how this meets that standards of FA other than being "complete" and how hard is that for such a minor character? To my mind, characters need to be of consequence to be FAs and need to have personal information that isn't based on re-written actions on screen. If they don't fit that, and aren't long-running recurring characters like [[Ayala]], then I don't think they represent the best of MA. [[User:Logan 5|Logan 5]] 18:15, 5 Oct 2005 (UTC)
