Logseq/Entity/Person/Character

• Character

  • In this garden, Character pages model a fictional person from a book, film, or other work — not a Logseq/Entity/Person hub.

  • What counts as a Character

    • A named figure whose identity is the character in a work of art, not the actor, author, or historical person who may share a name.
    • Not this type: real-person hubs; the work itself; a term coined inside a work (Horcrux).

  • Naming so neighbors sort together

    • Nest the character under the creator and the work, so the page sits next to both when paths are sorted Lexicographically.
    • When the work is a series: Person/<Creator>/<Type>/Series/<Series Name>/Character/<Name>.
    • When the work is a standalone member of its type: Person/<Creator>/<Type>/<rest>/Character/<Name>.
    • Example: Person/J. R. R. Tolkien/Book/Series/The Lord of the Rings/Character/Aragorn sits with Person/J. R. R. Tolkien and Person/J. R. R. Tolkien/Book/Series/The Lord of the Rings.

  • Finding and deduplicating

    • Search the character name, aliases used in the work, and the work's series path. One page per character per work-family unless the garden treats two appearances as distinct people.

  • Frontmatter

    • Set logseq-entity:: [[Logseq/Entity/Person/Character]].
    • created-by:: — the work's creator when that person hub exists.
    • Shared frontmatter conventions live on Logseq/Frontmatter.

  • Page shape

    • H1 linked to a stable external page for the character (Wikipedia or equivalent).
    • Lean About and Appears in bullets that link the work and creator.
