Creation[edit]

I created this category by cross-referencing from List of Shakespearean characters. Note that, at the moment, that list only contains complete details of the eight plays which form the two tetralogies: that is to say, Richard II (play), Henry IV, Part 1, Henry IV, Part 2, Henry V (play), Henry VI, Part 1, Henry VI, Part 2, Henry VI, Part 3 and Richard III (play).

The historical plays not yet on that page include Henry VIII, King John, Julius Caesar, Coriolanus and Troilus and Cressida. Also there are plays which include some historical characters, such as Macbeth and King Lear.

The category therefore isn't yet complete (although it is "finite"). Forgot to sign. This was me, User:AndyJones and the datestamp should have said 18th February 2006.

Today, I added everyone in the Dramatis Personnae section of Julius Caesar (play). Note, though, that I have NOT added those to List of Shakespearean characters. AndyJones 11:39, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Listified[edit]

Please note that this talk page was moved here as part of the listification of the now defunct Category:Historical figures portrayed by Shakespeare. --S ^up? 13:07, 25 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
