Talk:Bill Webster

Merge
I suggest this article be merged into List of recurring and minor Coronation Street characters as this page does not hold much information. -- Chris the master 19:00, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

This article should be merged into List of recurring and minor Coronation Street characters, as it does not contain in-depth details, as the character is not prominent in the soap opera.This is Drew (talk) 18:19, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

I agree, i merged to your proposals as you wish. User:Notdoppler 24 August 2008 (UTC)

I agree as well. -- Magioladitis (talk) 12:42, 18 September 2008 (UTC)


 * Two of the above editors are indef banned for being sockpuppets of a highly disruptive user. The AfD nomination, which in itself was made only so the aforementioned editor could cause further disruption, found no consensus to delete or merge. I disagree with the merge on the basis that the character is one of the longest running in the show, having first appeared over 14 years ago, and so is hardly recurring. Furthermore, I don't think a discussion in which half the participants are the same banned editor, which also ignores the fact that the recent AfD found no consensus, is enough to warrant a merge.

 * And having just double checked the AfD, all the votes were for keep apart from the single vote by the nominating editor, who has admitted to only nominating the article in order to cause disruption for the Project. Frickative  13:45, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Ooops I didn't notice that. I am sorry. -- Magioladitis (talk) 13:49, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * No worries. I definitely agree the article needs a lot of improvement, I just don't think merging is a suitable solution :) Frickative  13:51, 18 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I reverted my last edit nad I apologise once again for being hasty. I still think the best way to keep this information is to put it in the List, at least until some editors adds references, etc. -- Magioladitis (talk)

Still in the show
I have removed references to Bill Webster's last appearance and him being a 'former' regular character - there are no sources anywhere to confirm that he has been written out of the show. He simply hasn't been on-screen for a while; not uncommon in a show with 60+ regular cast members. 206.165.150.70 (talk) 10:41, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Bill has not appeard since September/October 2011 i think its fair to say that he has left since its 11 months since he last was on screen. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.0.210.71 (talk) 19:46, 27 August 2012 (UTC)
