Talk:List of Ang Probinsyano characters

I used the same template for each of the character, but it won't appear.

Very Special roles and Child Stars, reorg the list
Is there a reason why these are separate from the Main and Recurring? Wouldn't Special guest roles that are billed with the main cast be considered Main? See the characters table for Melrose Place with Heather Locklear's Main role where she is always billed as Special Guest. Same with child stars. They should be grouped with either Main or Recurring. Main is whoever is billed as the title cards or opening credits at the beginning of the show.

Also this list should expand on the characters in the show, explain who they are and their role in the show. The recurring characters table should only be created if each of the supporting characters have enough to write about on their own. In the case of List of New Girl characters there isn't enough to describe each recurring character beyond a few sentences, so they don't need a characters table.

You can also take this opportunity to reorganize the characters by other methods such as departments, families, organizations and groups, if that makes more sense. AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:02, 1 April 2018 (UTC)


 * I'm intrigued by that prospect. Although I actually wouldn't know how to execute it because the characters have been members of various groups. Likewise, I wouldn't know how to harmonize that with the classification of "Main Cast" or "Supporting Cast". Gardo Versace (talk) 08:25, 4 May 2020 (UTC)

Combine former and current actors
As the list of characters is meant to cover the entire series, the main cast section should combine both former and current actors. The exception would be for roster cases where entirely new teams are introduced for a season. AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 18:21, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
 * I have started making edits by merging the current and former cast, but it's still going to be a long process since I have to watch every billing for every episode. Characters billed as "Also Starring" but share a spot with another name are placed in Recurring status. For example, John Medina is billed as "Also Starring" but he shares the spot with Marvin Yap at the credits, so the two of them are placed in Recurring status. -- Wansawansa 14:35 12 April 2018 (UTC)

Supporting vs. recurring billing
Why is there a distinction between supporting and recurring? How are the actors billed in this series? Is there an "Also starring" kind of billing tier as with The Walking Dead (TV series)? AngusWOOF ( bark  •  sniff ) 18:23, 2 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Sorry this took a while because I wasn't as hands on on this page as I am with the other allied pages of Ang Probinsyano. A recurring cast member is also a supporting cast member. The only difference is that the recurring cast member is not in the credits roll anymore but still makes appearances in the show after they stopped being credited.

Guys, we REALLY have to merge the current and former cast members
Standard Wikipedia articles on list of characters merge former and current members but separate them by their billing. Please stop separating the former cast from the current cast members. -- Wansawansa 14:35 12 April 2018 (UTC)

This page REQUIRES REORGANIZATION
Please view the List of The Walking Dead (TV series) characters page. There are a lot of problems with the organization with this page. Former and current cast members should be merged. I've tried making edits but someone keeps on reverting them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wansawansa (talk • contribs) 10:12, 30 April 2018 (UTC)


 * I've tried to reorganize the table. I've assumed that Very Specials are main characters and added appropriate footnotes. Also combined child stars with the rest of the supporting. AngusWOOF  ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:04, 30 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Yes, thank you. That's what I've been doing a few weeks ago but someone reverted the changes I made. I think character descriptions still need expanding. Wansawansa (talk • contribs) —Preceding undated comment added 14:04, 1 May 2018 (UTC)


 * The characters should also be listed first in the listing rather than the actor's name. The (Actor as Character) format isn't needed for a character list. That way they can be expanded. The table part is okay, that can list the actor's name first, but it should be reviewed for order of first appearance and opening title credits.

 * Good day my friend! It's been a while since we've worked together. I guess this presents another opportunity foe us to work again. I do agree that this page needs some updating, perhaps a facelift. I'm going to need your help my friend because I'm only working via a mobile phone and don't have a more powerful computer to work with. Hope you can help us out here.

Tables
I've removed the tables from the main articlr for the time being while the article is being updated and/or reconscructed. We'll restore the same once the page becomes up-to-date.

Main
For the main characters, the table could be simplified if we remove the titles of the characters. These titles can be placed in the individual character descriptions. --Wansawansa (talk) 04:25, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
