Former Cast

Hi. I've added the characters Estelle Cooper, Zoe Ramsden and Rory Brears from Series 1 to the former cast section. Does anyone think that Yasmin Deardon, Clarence Charles and Jimmy Grainger should also be added? x

I've added an 'Other' section to the bottom of the 'Former cast' part and added Clarence and Jimmy. Also added Yasmin to the former youth. x

COI?

For some reason, a bot found this article as an autobiography. Does an editor of this article have a financial interest in the show? Bearian 17:40, 17 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fuming

At spoilers. I didn't know Davina was going. Or MATT. He's my favourite teacher (apart from Jasmine but that's only cos she's fit). I'm not a Net geek that has to look at these things and obsess over in which episode they joined and left. So right, I don't want the future of the series to be spoilt for me, as it just has. I was only on here to check a name spelling of a character. Properly fuming. No way of hiding this or at least WARNING us in large letters?! - Nessa Ancalimë ♥ (talk) 20:17, 1 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The nature of the character sections in any tv series, soap, drama etc on wikipedia I think you'll find, is to list Current, Departing, New and Past Characters. It's hardly done to spoil things for fans. There is also a summary box right at the top of the page which clearly states "Upcoming Changes: Arriving, Departing" so if you didn't want to know, she shouldn't have scrolled down.92.11.19.202 (talk) 15:03, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge with List of Minor & Recurring Waterloo Road characters

Lists of minor anything are not appropriate on Wikipedia; minor issues are dealt with for completeness on topics which are themselves not minor. A list of Waterloo Road characters is a notable topic, but a separate list of minor Waterloo Road characters is not. As such, List of Minor & Recurring Waterloo Road characters should be merged into this page. The length of that page is not problematic as the bulk of it consists of infoboxes which should simply be removed anyway. Neelix (talk) 20:37, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

This is an ongoing debate with the Waterloo Road charater pages in general. But seeing as EastEnders, Corrie and other soaps have there own minor character pages, i see no reason why Waterloo Road be any different. But if the List of minor and recurring is to be merged - ALL other pages including those of the main characters should be removed too and simply have the one page. 92.1.230.168 (talk) 21:59, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
