Thanks for restoring the page, Dlcs, but, um, Carnifex and Vivarium are actually recurring characters- one or both of them makes an appearance or at least a mention in all my level series.

:Well, I think tyteen wanted all unofficial character articles to be linked with a level series, so that's why I did that. I'll move them back for now and I'll let tyteen make a further decision on it later. --[[User:Dlcs18|Dlcs18]] 17:40, 15 May 2011 (CDT) | |||

:It depends on the context. For example, if you're creating a separate page for each character in a game, minor characters might fit better in the root characters, but if you're creating a separate page about a major element, such as Stinky, then even if the canonical source only references it briefly it deserves its own page with the stub template.
