Please do not add a characters table
editThis show does not need a characters table. There aren't actors or characters that change billing like The Walking Dead. And it shouldn't take up half the article like that or have weird titles. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 22:38, 19 November 2017 (UTC)
Summarizing some stuff from WP:TVCAST:
- Characters are in order of first appearance as a major character in the series.
- Use common name of character for the section header, for example: Mr. Diaz, Mrs. Diaz, King Butterfly, Queen Butterfly, Janna, Tom, Sensei, Miss Heinous. The full names can be listed in the character's description
- Do not go into plot details for the character as that would be too much in-universe. Highlight what aspects of the character are most important.
- Cite to episodes or the guidebook on any outstanding details.
- Do not add cast tables. This is a series where the main cast changes are minimal.
- Do not add minor / guest characters. Wait until they have recurring roles in multiple episodes and have prominence beyond a background character. For example, Janna was a background character in season 1 but then shows up in season 2 regularly in many episodes. This would include most of Ludo's minions, and randoms like Starfan13. Spider and giant eagle can be grouped under Ludo's minions or Ludo. Kelly might move onto the list.
