From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dude, try to end up with only one article on your Emmerdale characters, please. I've redirected both Bernice Blackstock and Bernice Blackstock (Emmerdale character) since this is the caption of the infobox you put on the left side of at least two of those pages. Enjoy wikipediaing. Well, what am I saying. You are already. (I could never cope with Emmerdale, btw. THere you go. Standard form welcome follows. --Tagishsimon (talk)

[edit] Kayleigh Crow
Please stop making unneccessary redirects. The name of the Emmerdale characters are Martin and Kayleigh Crow, not Crowe or Gibbs. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 18:17, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Edit summaries
I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks!

[edit] Lily
Please do not redirect Lily (Emmerdale character) again. The reason I moved the page in the first place was because her name will not be Lily Birch, as Edna took her husband's name when she got married, therefore Edna's name is Birch, but her sister's won't be. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 13:17, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Please remember
Please take a look at Wikipedia:Manual of Style (headings)#Capitalizations, and stop changing the headings on List of Emmerdale characters. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 21:57, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Edna Burch.jpg)
Thanks for uploading Image:Edna Burch.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] Lily (Emmerdale)
I noted you directed Lily Lovett to Lily Butterfield. Although i am not yet dismissing that move, but i didn't notice you quote sources at to where you found that information (and reliable sources would be desirable). Information on the character currently is thin on the ground, but if you could quote your source, and for future changes similar too, it would be useful. Bungle44 18:54, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] String of new articles
Hi. I see that you have created many new articles for minor characters of a TV show. As a general rule, we try to avoid that and per WP:FICT these are generally coallesced into a list-type article. Pascal.Tesson 15:24, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Emmerdale Characters
Hi, Jameshdl, I notice you've been making lots of entries for Emmerdale characters recently, and I'm just wondering whether you plan to expand them any furthur than they are at the moment. The problem I can see is that they are all very short and stubby, i.e just having family relations and their names. Thus, I would politely suggest that it might be better to just expand the list of characters unless you have some actual content to add to the articles, or if you do plan to write more detailed character profiles to do these before posting any more. Thank you. Bob talk 15:40, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
- Perhaps you could try adding Template:Emmerdale Character to the articles to give them more information... Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 16:18, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

- No, more content makes them more acceptable. Making millions of stubs and leaving them is unacceptable; making a few and expanding them to create decent articles is acceptable. And the template doesn't make it any more acceptable, it just makes the article more identifiable as an Emmerdale article... I'd advise you to stop creating these articles, however, as they really don't have any information in that isn't already in the cast list.

[edit] Project Stub Sort
Hello,
Thank you for your stub submission. You may wish to note that it is preferable to use a stub template from Wikipedia:WikiProject Stub sorting/Stub types instead of using simply {{stub}}, if you can.
Thanks! -Ohms law 18:44, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
