Talk:List of EastEnders characters (1997)

Moving characters to 'Others'

Whilst adding actor names, and changing the tense of this article, I have moved a number of minor characters that featured in the EastEnders episodes in Ireland from their own sections to an 'Others' section. I have also added a few characters from these episodes that were not listed on this page, and I have also transferred a couple of unrelated minor characters from the list to the 'Others' section. However, info is a bit hazy on what specific dates these Irish characters appeared, so these may need rearranging and reordering if anyone has the necessary info.

The Ireland "others" have entries in the Ireland episodes page, so they don't need a second one. They either need a link to that page and no entry on this one, or links from that page to this one. Otherwise it's a a bit messed up, especially redirects (e.g. Kylie Flaherty). That's all I can say for now because I'm out of time for today! –anemoneprojectors– 17:28, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

Kylie Flaherty already had an entry on this list, as did John, Declan & Carl Flaherty, all I did was move them from having their own section to being in the 'Others'. It doesn't affect any redirects. The only characters I actually ADDED to this page are Patrick and Flynn, but again, as they are in the 'Others' section, it doesnt affect the original page. These lists are supposed to have all new characters that appeared in the soap in that year. Its worth mentioning that characters from Dickens Hill and The Banned (EastEnders) have entries on the year list they first appeared in, even though they are listed in a specific storyline article. Why should the Flahertys be any different? Bleaney (talk) 17:39, 11 November 2012 (UTC)

But they had empty sections with links to where more information can be found - now those links are gone and the information is in two places - this is what we don't want/need. I'm not saying they should be any different - they were no different but you've now made them different by removing those links. The same should apply to Patrick and Flynn if their list entries are on another page - the information shouldn't be repeated. I'm going to fix it and do something different so don't worry. –anemoneprojectors– 17:26, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Let me know what you think about what I just did. –anemoneprojectors– 17:28, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Yeah thats fine, I didnt want empty sections thats all. Bleaney (talk) 17:31, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Yeah I know, and I think you were right to do it and I was wrong to undo it. This is definitely better. :-) –anemoneprojectors– 18:32, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Coolio, however, as I said before, info is a bit hazy on what specific dates these Irish characters appeared, so these may need adding/rearranging and reordering on both this page and the dedicated Ireland episodes page if anyone has the necessary info. Bleaney (talk) 18:35, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Hmm, maybe the episodes are on Youtube or something! –anemoneprojectors– 20:18, 12 November 2012 (UTC)
