Regarding attempted page removal/merge of Precious (Passions character)

Merged from Talk:Precious (Passions character)TAnthonyTalk 06:13, 8 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Although Precious was a minor character, perhaps ironically, she is probably the most significant character in the entire Passions universe as far as attracting real-world attention independent of the show, fans, etc. No less than the famous Jane Goodall commented on her, so by Wikipedia standards, I can't possibly see why she wouldn't deserve her own page. -- Dougie WII (talk) 09:56, 7 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

The notability of the character certainly makes her deserving of inclusion in Wikipedia, but doesn't necessarily mean she needs an individual article (and I will also note, the Emmy nomination stuff is also included in the main Passions article). To me, the length of the material determines that; this is barely more than a stub, and even if expanded I can't imagine there is really enough more to say about Precious to make a decent-sized article. Inclusion in Minor Passions characters doesn't minimize the character's importance, and actually improves the notability/impact of the Minor characters article itself. In any case, this material should not be in both places; I added the missing image to the "Minor characters" article, but won't redirect this again for now, thinking we may get some more input. And for the record, I'm the one who added the Emmy nomination stuff to this article in the first place, so I share your impression of the character's notability. — TAnthonyTalk 21:07, 7 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
Ok, well these points do make a lot sense to me. I guess I no longer oppose this per se, but I think more care has to be taken such that all information is preserved. -- Dougie WII (talk) 03:21, 8 February 2008 (UTC)Reply
I've restored the redirect and added the new Jane Goodall link here. Precious can always be broken out again should the need arise. — TAnthonyTalk 06:14, 8 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Charlie

edit

I don't think an alter ego of a character should be listed separately, as Valerie Davis was merged into Vincent Clarkson when it was revealed they were the same person, so I think this section shouldn't exist on this page. It appears that all information is already contained in Alistair Crane#Charlie. -- Dougie WII (talk) 12:17, 11 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I concur. Everything about Charlie in this article is already included in the Alistair Crane article. — Spanish lullaby (talk) 15:34, 11 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Looks like no one is opposing this, so I'll remove the section tomorrow. -- Dougie WII (talk) 01:07, 15 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Toto and the Little Angel Girl

edit

Is Toto really the Little Angel Girl? I wasn't watching during that time...If so, perhaps those two sections should be merged. -- Dougie WII (talk) 19:25, 14 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

I have no idea... I had just started watching, and I don't remember it at all. I couldn't find anything on SoapCentral, either. — Spanish lullaby (talk) 21:04, 18 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Syd and Kelly

edit

Are Syd and Kelly the same person? I know that they were played by the same actress, but I was under the impression that Reyes was a Law & Order-style repeat offender. — Spanish lullaby (talk) 21:04, 18 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Excess of "minor" characters?

edit

Just a thought — are all of the characters on this list really necessary? People like Juanita and Edna and Norma definitely need to be mentioned here, but people like Stuart Allen, Tina Alvarez, Carmelita, and Elena? Referring to them as "minor" overestimates their importance — they had extremely small roles that had little to no impact on the storylines. This page seems cluttered to me with all of these one-time, non-notable characters, and if no one opposes, I'd like to go ahead and remove them all. — Spanish lullaby (talk) 00:00, 14 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Proposed merge of List of Passions characters with Minor Passions characters

edit

Seems like an uncommon duplication of essentially the same topic. "Minor Passions' characters" would most likely fail WP:LISTN. –MJLTalk 03:43, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Support a merge into the main list. There is no need for a "minor characters" list – how would that even be defined without sourcing that describes each and every one as a categorically "minor character"? – Meena09:07, 7 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
