I'll be honest, I'm not entirely familiar with Don Quijote. I'd probably say there's multiple protagonists of LOTR, as it's told from multiple perspectives, right? When I say "the protagonist," I'm not saying that they're the sole character that is a protagonist, I... hm. See, I used the term because it was the first term I thought of that seemed appropriate. I guess "main character" would work equally well, but the wiki already uses "the protagonist" throughout. I mean, I understand your arguement.

Google defines protagonist as "the main figure or one of the most prominent figures in a real situation." In this case, I'm saying that the character that the player is controlling is "the main figure," as they are the most prominent throughout the story. This isn't disregarding other characters as protagonists. I feel like a lot of the issue with this wiki is that so much of the game is subjective, and that there's no real way find a way to refer to every character: there's no pleasing everyone.

I really do appreciate your contributions, and you make a good arguement, but I think we're going to stick with "the protagonist" in reference to the character the player controls.
