Emmerdale character articles; invitation to discussion[edit]

I've begun a discussion regarding the atrocious state of character articles within the Emmerdale universe. These articles stand to be deleted unless corrective action is taken. Please join the conversation at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Emmerdale#Serious problems across the board; let's start with character articles. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 16:00, 1 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Meaning?[edit]

Sorry if I'm being a bit stupid.

What does 2000– mean? Justanot (talk) 18:47, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I forgot to add this...

Is this a mistake or does it mean something? Justanot (talk) 18:48, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Justanot: Hi, only just seen this! "2000–" meant that he has appeared in the soap continuously from 2000 onwards. However, that was incorrect formatting and has since been changed to "2000–present" to comply with MOS:DATETOPRES. – DarkGlow • 20:37, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I think they meant the "2000–" in the storyline section, which wasn't really needed there, as he's appeared in every year since his intro. - JuneGloom07 Talk 22:43, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Storyline section[edit]

The storyline section was removed earlier by an IP user claiming that it breached policy – the section was certainly long but I agree with JuneGloom07 that the section didn't exactly breach policy. I conversed with DaniloDaysOfOurLives after I saw the removal and he plans on condensing and rewriting the section, and I thought it relevant to mention that here before there's a content dispute with another removal of the section. – DarkGlow • 20:40, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hey - yes I will condense it. I do not want to remove information - I just will make the sentences shorter :) DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 20:46, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm condensing and copy-editing it right now. Compared to some plot sections, it wasn't actually that bad. - JuneGloom07 Talk 22:22, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@DarkGlow and DaniloDaysOfOurLives: Done. There was definitely some content that needed trimming. - JuneGloom07 Talk 22:46, 9 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
