There might be more information on the [[U.L. Paper]] page. At any rate, that article should be merged with this one (the other being a redirect to here). Does anyone want to handle this? If not, I will do it myself as time permits.

:That's a good point - however, taking in context, he is implying that ULP is a secret organisation that does the dirty work for a legitimate government agency. Change the quote to be exactly verbatim, and add "this probably means ___".

== Template == | |||
Just a minor nitpick,but should we add the GTA IV characters template? [[User:HuangLee|HuangLee]] 21:56, 15 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
:I think so. The article reads like it's talking more about the contact (a character) than the organisation. '''[[User:Biggest gta fan ever|Biggest GTA Fan Ever]]<sup>''[[User talk:Biggest gta fan ever|Talk]]''</sup>''' 22:37, 15 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
::Most fans have dubbed the UL Paper agent "Mr.Paper".That's pretty much the main focus of the article since we don't know pretty much anything about the organization.So it IS rather a character than an organization. [[User:HuangLee|HuangLee]] 03:29, 16 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
:::I would definitely consider "UL Paper" to be a character, because I'm familiar with the associated game. However, it's not so obvious to those who aren't as familiar with GTAIV, so see the latest edit for my idea. It's a wiki, it's easily reverted, and it's easier to show you than explain what I'm seeing in my head ;) My thoughts on it: | |||
:::*It needs to be categorized as both, because it does refer to both the government front agency as well as Niko's contact within. | |||
:::*The fact that the article describes both a character and an organization needs to be clearly explained, and within the first couple of sentences. | |||
:::*It needs to focus mainly on the character, because at least many of the links to this page are from GTA IV Characters templates - and I'd guarantee a lot of the others are also referring to the character and not the organization - so most people arriving at his page are going to expect a character, especially those familiar with the game. | |||
:::If we don't like this, my other thought would be to add a disclaimer to the top, ''This is an article about the organization in GTA IV. For the character in GTA IV, see <nowiki>[[United Liberty Paper Contact]]</nowiki>'' and make a separate page for the man. But then we'd need to go changing a bunch of links, although that would probably be the most technically accurate way to go about it. | |||
:::Anyway, those're my two cents. ;) --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 02:29, 17 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
I don't like the idea of two separate articles. It would create duplicate content, and this article has already been proposed for deletion in the current state. I ''do'' however like the idea of separating the info into organisation and contact. I like the organisation info being above the contact info though (so that you know what the contact's job is before your start reading about him).

:That looks good to me. I added a second sentence to the intro to clarify that "UL Paper" may be referring to the person. --[[:w:c:gta:User:GuildKnight|GuildKnight]]<sup>[[:w:c:gta:User_talk:GuildKnight|Talk2me]]</sup> 05:19, 20 January 2009 (UTC) | |||
== Mike Toreno == | |||
This guy is not even remotely close to Toreno. Should that section stay there or be deleted everytime someone brings it up?--'''[[User:Spaceeinstein|Spaceeinstein]]''' 14:47, 16 May 2009 (UTC) | |||
:Can't believe I never noticed this message back when it was posted. Anyways, I agree, he has ''very'' little in common with Toreno, save for the greying hair and black suit (although that's hardly an uncommon sight in New York/Liberty City). I guess the only thing we ''can'' do is just delete it everytime someone adds it - as there will always be misguided fans who don't relaise that the GTA III era and GTA IV are unrelated. - [[User:Hardrock182|Hardrock182]] 05:32, 14 July 2009 (UTC) | |||
Agreed. If people are saying this is Toreno then hey need an eye check. Since when did toreno wear glasses? --[[User:Chimpso|Chimpso]] 05:33, 14 July 2009 (UTC) | |||
== "UL Paper" as a name == | |||
Is there really any point in the game when Niko's contact ''himself'' is referred to as "UL Paper"? I doubt it. [[User:Samadriel|Samadriel]] 07:38, 2 August 2009 (UTC) | |||
:Yea, but for the sake of simplicity it's easier to call him that than "the unnamed person" or something similar.--'''[[User:Spaceeinstein|Spaceeinstein]]''' 19:38, 3 August 2009 (UTC) | |||
:Oh, I read your edit. Nicely reworded. | |||
