Talk:Theo Kelly (EastEnders)

Still around?
Has this character left? If so, he should be merged back to minors.  GunGagdin Moan 22:49, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Well he is minor but I think there's enough OOU stuff to keep this article. I don't know if he's left though. I'd like to think not, but was probably only a temporary character anyway. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:53, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Thinking about it, when I was source searching for this page, I noticed that the actor is due to be in some stage musical this summer, so possibly means he's not going to be around anymore. How long has Chelsea left for?  GunGagdin Moan 22:57, 5 July 2009 (UTC)
 * No idea about Chelsea. Has she gone for any particular reason (in real life) or just written out for the storyline? AnemoneProjectors (talk) 23:25, 5 July 2009 (UTC)


 * I dont know, but I know that she's apparently going to be away for quite a while.  GunGagdin Moan 19:52, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * If Theo is coming back, it's unlikely to be while Chelsea is away. I think we should assume he's gone, and put his name in the list of past characters. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:40, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * What a pointless character he turned out to be then. Cant really understand why they'd make such a fanfare about him coming into it for only a few months. Yeah, treat him like former, i'm sure he'll be back once Chelsea returns. I wish I never bothered unmerging him now :) 21:29, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Someone's already removed him from the EastEnders template so we just need to move him to the past characters page. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:33, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Let's put the character back to list and reconvert to redirect. -- Magioladitis (talk) 16:29, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Why? It's more than just plot and has sources from third-party reliable sources, which it didn't have at the time of its AFD. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 16:32, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Articles for new characters entering soaps are very common but they don't mean the character is important or notable outside the show. Usually they are just articles to keep the audience up-to-date with the show itself. Even guests get articles of this kind. The only interesting reference is the one about race attitude but this also deals with the show and could be added in the main EastEnders article to advance its quality. The character appeared in less than 6 months in a long-running show as hundreds other characters and I don't see any book or magasine discussing about him independently of the show itself. -- Magioladitis (talk) 16:38, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Well let's merge the character back to the list and then review it again if he returns and more sources are found. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 17:40, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Although, there are more sources available that haven't been used in the article. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 17:45, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

I'm for keeping for now until we're told for definite that he is not returning. It has sources and majority of it is real world information, so it's not breaking any rules, and I dont think we can judge the article's merits on what's interesting to us personally, because who can say what will be of interest to every reader of this page? I will be happy to remerge this back to the minors in about a month, when we can establish whether he's gone for good or not. If he is, then remerge.  GunGagdin Moan 18:44, 8 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Oh well, too late :)  GunGagdin Moan 18:45, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
 * These "Foo enters the show" references are really usefull for List of characters articles but I don't see them used there. People tend to create unreferenced lists of characters. I know this is something it has to be discussed somewhere else but I just wanted to mention. -- Magioladitis (talk) 19:00, 8 July 2009 (UTC)


 * Gungadin, I didn't know you were going to change your mind so I just did it :) Anyway we can do it the other way around. Unmerge if he does come back. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 19:21, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

I tweeted @soapscoop (aka Kris Green from Digital Spy) today to see if he knew if Theo is coming back. He said he hasn't seen him in any upcoming episodes so can't be sure. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 17:33, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

The category syntax   should be removed, and replaced with   . This redirect has already been placed in Category:EastEnders character redirects to lists (a subcategory of Category:EastEnders characters) via the redirect template R from fictional character, but the category sorting is still useful.
