=== Character list ===
This begins with <code><nowiki>;Characters</nowiki></code>. It should include a list of all the characters, in a bulleted list (using asterisks) within a {{t|columns}} template. Point of view characters (denoted by <code><nowiki>(point of view)</code></nowiki>) appear first, followed by characters featured in the chapter, and lastly characters mentioned (denoted by <code><nowiki>(mentioned only)</code></nowiki>). Even a single mention is enough to warrant inclusion in the list. Unnamed characters and groups of characters should also be included. Within each category, organize roughly by order of appearance.
 
These names should be linked each and every time they appear in a characters list. However, character names should still be linked the first time they appear within the actual text of the summary.
 
How to deal with the first time marker in tWoK? Unlike most, which are attached to chapters, its attached to "Book One of the Stormlight Archive".
 
Should I even mention the individual chapter summary pages?
 
What is up with the random quotes and references in Alcatraz's summary? Should these be discouraged actively on this page? Some warning about how any references will produce circular links?
