The whole relationship change with Ema. The article implies they're still together, which they're not. And please don't ask me to do it myself because thats the whole point of having tags. Pointing problems that you can't fix. Emptyviewers (talk) 22:26, 1 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Is Will the "male lead"? Does it matter? edit

It seems odd, in my opinion, to call Will the "male lead" of Glee, not least because he's a character, not an actor. It could be argued that Matthew Morrison is the male lead of the show, or it could have been in the first season, though Cory Monteith was the other major competitor for that role.

In the second season and beyond, the center of gravity definitely shifted, with Chris Colfer taking a more major role, and while Monteith receded for a while when the third season started, Colfer was getting more screen and story time than Morrison.

This is a judgment call, and I frankly think it would be preferable not to have any "leading male character" or "most prominent male character" listed here, or in any other character articles. Saying "starring role" wouldn't be helpful because there are fifteen actors credited as "starring" at the present time.

Incidentally, whatever is decided here should also reflect on the Rachel Berry article, which calls her the "de facto female lead", even though I'd say she was more clearly a leading character than Will is. Thoughts? BlueMoonset (talk) 04:18, 21 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
