Please post any comments in Talk:Albino bias to get any discussion reasonably easy to follow. :-) That is not to say I'm taking a stance of which article should be merged into which though; I just picked a place. -- Northgrove 22:10, 3 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Re the proposed merge: Both articles have value, and I don't feel either is overstated. I would prefer to keep the "evil albino" listing because I believe we have recently made a breakthrough in making this particular phrase something of a joke among comedians and film makers. If movie industry movers and shakers begin to realize the "evil albino" is a lame, hackneyed cliche, they might be inspired to move on and create more imaginative characters.

User: brynfarr. And please, I'm new at this: if I've placed this in the wrong part of the discussion, please feel free to move it where it belongs!

You should post this at Talk:Albino bias as requested, or it's unlikely to be noticed. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 10:42, 15 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
PS: Merging the articles won't affect the memetic value of the phrase "evil albino" since under the proposal it would be its own section under Albino bias, and the current page would redirect there. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 10:42, 15 November 2006 (UTC)Reply
Nay. Don't merge. Ditto reason from brynfarr. Dragix 01:59, 15 June 2006 (UTC)Reply

Merge is now complete. Most material on this talk page is being refactored into Talk:Albino bias.SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 02:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Original Research edit

I added the original research tag because, let's face it, there's a lot of it in this article. Beyond that, there doesn't seem to be a clearly defined definition of what an "evil albino" is, nor does this article attempt to differentiate between albino villains and villains that simply happen to have white skin (which albino humans don't have -- it's pale, not white) and other physical features that all humans can have (white or no hair, light blue or gray eyes, etc.) In short, this article seems more out to make a point than proving it.

For example, I found the entire "Evil albinos as separate race" section to be hilariously wrong. Having white skin in a fantasy/scifi movie doesn't make a person albino. 66.229.160.94 00:45, 29 July 2006 (UTC)Reply

This has been dealt with. — SMcCandlish [talk] [contrib] 02:50, 16 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Evil British edit

How come there is no article about evil British people in movies? [--anon.]
