For the past around 2 weeks or so we've had a slew of new galleries for each season of every character. The issue is we're doing this for every character including incredibly minor ones. The issues with this are:

1. It clogs up everything. We used to have this sort of central gallery system for supporting/minor characters but now everyone and their mother has like 5 different galleries and it really does create a mess.

2. Inconsistency. The idea of who does and doesn't deserve seperate galleries is obviously skewed and can't be agreed upon between people. Not to mention some characters still have a centralized gallery while simulataneously having 5 seperate ones which is just a giant mess.

3. It provides a platform for edit milking and just generally low quality edits. It was sort of fine at first but now I'm getting the impression some users are just doing this for the sake of boosting their edit count as well as badge hunting, especially when you take into account a lot of these galleries are made being either blatantly incomplete or just absolutely disorganized.

What we're aiming for in this thread:

1. Establish who does and who doesn't require seperate galleries for each season.

2. Create clear standards so that we may transition easier.

3. Establish an organized procedure to execute whatever we come up with.

What I propose:

Who does deserve seperate galleres:

The Wattersons and Major characters.

Major characters are defined as: Supporting characters that have a greater amount of major, speaking, and supporting roles than other supporting characters that is both obvious and significant.

Examples would include: Penny, Tobias, Banana Joe right off the top of my head. For our sake I would propose we actually keep this list to a minimum.

Who doesn't deserve seperate characters:

Minor characters and Supporting characters with an obvious lack of emphasis placed on them.

Examples include: Crocodile Woman, Gary, Ocho, and Hector.

Now obviously these suggestions can be adjusted to fit our needs better, but what I just wanted to put something out there. This thread almost certainly should have been made earlier before this got out of hand, and I apologize for delaying on this.
