General Hospital cast members
Hello. Without a reliable source, IE (Soap Opera Digest), you cannot just change the page. I undid your edits because television is not a reliable source as General Hospital does not put thior contract and recurring actors separate. - Kiraroshi1976 (talk) 18:13, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes they do. As a 23 year viewer of the show, I can attest to the fact that GH separates it's contract and recurring cast. The contract cast is listed first in order of tenure, then the recurring cast is listed afterward. Don't even get me started on him appearing in the opening credits which strictly a distinction for contract cast. If you'd read the credits, you'd notice that Richard Burgi is listed well before many of the other contract cast members. That's why I've lobbied so hard for this edit, because I want him to get the correct distinction that he has. In addition, he's listed as regular cast on the character article page. Which is in disagreement w/ the GH article. Now short of having a rep from ABC Daytime contact Wiki, what do I have to do?

 * IMDb is not a reliable source. The end credits for General Hospital, as previously mentioned, are not ordered in main-to-recurring status; they are listed in which cast member most recently joined the series cast. There is no definitive source that can confirm what you are requesting. - Kiraroshi1976 (talk) 18:57, 6 July 2016 (UTC)


 * Yes, they are listed contract to recurring. ANY GH viewer will tell you that. I can even provide photo evidence to contradict everything that you said.
 * It does not matter without proper citation, and that includes YouTube, he will not be added to the main cast. I have been watching GH since 1981. - Kiraroshi1976 (talk) 19:03, 6 July 2016 (UTC)

IMDb is like Wikipedia, and may be edited by anyone who is registered on the website. So therefore, per Wikipedia policy, it cannot be used as a source. Third-party sources only refer to Burgi as a recurring cast member, so therefore, that is where he shall stay. Also, per Wikipedia, please remember to sign your posts using ~.  livelikemusic    talk!  12:33, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
