:Seeing as how I joined just shortly before that whole ridiculous incident, I can't really speak on the community's views on character support group articles.  I was virtually unaware of their existence up until that point.  From what I've seen, I will admit that editors here generally didn't mind these articles.  In fact, in most cases, they were against deleting them.  I personally never understood why some random internet forum alliance offering support for a character was somehow notable enough for an article and I took the opportunity to express my opinions when that Ridley incident unfolded (as you can see [[Talk:R.I.D.L.E.Y.|here]]).  Apparently, it turns out that others felt the same way and took the initiative to mark other such entries for deletion; obviously, at least one of the sysops here also agreed, seeing as how every one of those articles was eventually removed.

:What caused this change in stance on alliance articles?  I couldn't tell you; for what it's worth, more than likely it is due to the Ridley incident.  Whatever the case, that doesn't matter; those articles were deemed acceptable in the past and that is obviously no longer the case - oh, well.
