Talk:Charlie Buckton

Age

I'll leave it until the episodes are actually shown but the current news coming through from the show is that Charlie is actually 30 and was 14 when Ruby was born.The earlier reference to her being 26 could easily have been her lying about her age. Skteosk (talk) 21:14, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

Family show

I'm confused as to what people mean by "family show", because over the years Home and Away has exposed kids to all sorts of risqué and controversial storylines such as drugs, teen pregnancy and rape, and some of the violence is pretty strong too, and also what do they mean by "kids"?, i know they can't mean young children because Home and Away is a show aimed at teenagers, not exactly children, unless they mean same sex relationship storylines can't be shown to teenagers, which is stupid because that is the kind of thing that you would see in a show aimed at teenagers, Home and Away has always been full of adult themes, and as for it being a "family show", i've seen plenty of American shows that come from the American channel ABC Family and i get even more confused because they are full of adult themed issues also. So being confused as i am, i can only come to the conclusion that they mean "family show" as in teenage kids watching the show with their parents/guardians, but not pre teen kids.

Ruby

This - [12] - will be good for a section about her relationship with Ruby. Is there anything else out there, especially on how Ruby discovered Charlie was her mother? I didn't watch the show then, so I have no clue what happened. - JuneGloom Talk 00:27, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

I've added some info, I did a cite episode of an interview with the pair. If you search too see what info on Robert Robertson and Grant Bledcoe, they might hold some useful refs. Grant raped Charlie, became pregnant with Ruby, Grant is murdered and Robertson tries to pin Charlie. Just a whim though.RAIN*the*ONE ^BAM 04:47, 24 March 2011 (UTC)

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Charlie Buckton/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: –anemoneprojectors– 20:57, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

I will review this article soon. –anemoneprojectors– 20:57, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

I made some minor changes but found these other (mostly minor) issues:

Lead

• "The character made her debut on-screen". Either "debut on screen" or "on-screen debut".  Done
• It might be helpful to say who plays Joey Collins, Angelo Rosetta and Darryl Braxton  Done
• "she began a relationship with Angelo Rosetta developed". Either remove "she began" or "developed".  Done
• Can you specify which critics said what?  Done
• "Whereas some liked her image branding it "sexy" and praised the drama she creates." Maybe this is meant to join on from the previous sentence, it doesn't work as a standalone one. Also, who are "some"?  Done

Storylines

• It might be better to put this section first to add context to the rest of the article. (Doing this will mean wikilinks will need to be added, e.g. Angelo Rosetta, Darryl Braxton and Casey Braxton)
• A link to Alzheimer's disease might be appropriate, also one to Hypoglycemia  Done
• Who are the River Boys?  Done
• "Ruby tells her that she slept with Romeo Smith" - had sex with.  Done

Characterisation

• Who is Morag? (If the storyines are put first, this won't be an issue)  Done
• "They also describe her as". Should it be past tense?  Done
• "Though she can be "misunderstood" at times, which makes her appear brash." Another sentence that either should be attached to another, or remove "Though".  Done
• "Whilst interviewed by the Llanelli Star, Anderson describes". Past tense needed again.  Done

Relationship with Joey Collins

• I think the first two paragraphs should be one, and the quote box moved up.  Done

Relationship with Angelo Rosetta

• "She also claimed that they would never have broken up if it was not for Jack's death, but Charlie cannot fight her attraction to him." I presume it's her attraction to Angelo and not to Jack. Maybe change "him" to "Angelo".  Done
• "Anderson also states that", use past tense.  Done
• Who is May?  Done
• "there is always drama in Charlie's love life and adds" - "added"  Done

Illegitimate daughter

• "The revelation ruins their relationship, Anderson said that Charlie was "trying desperately to bridge this gap" and Breeds added "Ruby just wants to get some security back, everything she thought her life was is totally up in the air"." This sentence doesn't read too well. Maybe split it into two, something like: "The revelation ruins their relationship, and Anderson said that Charlie was "trying desperately to bridge this gap". Breeds added "Ruby just wants to get some security back, everything she thought her life was is totally up in the air"."  Done
• Who is Romeo? (If the storyines are put first, this won't be an issue)  Done
• Perhaps move the link to Darryl Braxton and the actor's name from the following section to this one.  Done
• "Charlie's approach only caused conflict..." change to "causes" as an in-universe event.  Done

Darryl Braxton

• Link The Daily Telegraph Done

Reception

• "Holy Soap describe the character's most memorable moment" - "described" Done
• "In September 2010, Holy Soap website" - "the Holy Soap website" Done
• "Peter Dyke, writing for British tabloid the Daily Star, brands Charlie" - "branded" Done
• "The character has been negatively received by Ruth Deller" - "The character was negatively..." Done
• "Deller placed Charlie at number five on her list of best and worst soap opera characters." Was she the fifth best or the fifth worst character? Done
• Link Michelle Connor and Coronation Street Done
• "Stephen has been critical". "was critical" Done

General

Although the lead states that "Charlie's occupations have involved different roles in a fictional unit of the New South Wales Police Force", it's only really implied throughout the article that she is a police officer. A brief mention in the storylines section should do the trick.  Done

Other than these fairly minor things, the article is in great shape. There are no dead external links and no ambiguous internal links. I'll put this on hold for seven days so you can make the necessary changes. –anemoneprojectors– 22:28, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

I don't think you've been picky. ;) I'll do a few things now and I think Rain is around to do some too. - JuneGloom Talk 22:34, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Super - I'll help now.Rain the 1 ^BAM 22:50, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Wow that was quick. I'm happy to pass the GA!!! –anemoneprojectors– 23:56, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for a great review and for the pass. :) - JuneGloom Talk 00:04, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Yes, thank you! It is GA at last. =)Rain the 1 ^BAM 00:07, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Infobox

I haven't missed something have I? There's no reason, that I see, to change the infobox and the content within it. - JuneGloom Talk 21:55, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
