Comment
How exactly is Val an entrepreneur? Surely that title should be saved for people who do many different things, i.e. the Kings and De Souzas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.147.79.98 (talk) 09:27, 6 August 2008

Emmerdale character articles; invitation to discussion
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. Thank you, --Hammersoft (talk) 16:00, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Past Character
She is technically at the present time a past character because she is someone who was, but is not currently, a cast member. Therefore she should be recorded on Wiki as such, with her name in the returning column on the Emmerdale Cast page, as the current info released is that she is taking a 3 month break. But these announcements are never set in stone-nobody knows what will happen in the future eg Charlie Hardwick may decide she wants more time off or that she doesnt want to return at all. When the character of Doug departed, it was announced that it was temprorary too; for just a few months. However, a year on from his last appearance he still hasnt returned. So we will be following protocol as used in his and other cases, as well as commonsense and reflecting what the references tell us, by presenting her within Wikipedia as a former character who is at the moment expected to return in 3 months: simple.

 * I must have missed the memo for when you were appointed as this project's leader. You seem to think it is up to you and you only to make every single decision. Making changes as you see fit, quite boldy too, ordering other editors to look at talk pages - which only your opinion is included. For here, in the above post - you make it clear of what "we will be" doing from now on and explain that any other way shall lack commonsense. This practise goes against the foundations of Wikipedia being a collaborative effort. Rain  the 1  03:51, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
 * The actress is on a twelve week break, she still is a cast member and she has not departed the show. Ordering editors around is not how this works, we go by consensus. If consensus is against you, then you have to deal with it and move on. - JuneGloom    Talk  19:58, 12 February 2012 (UTC)
