Character Synopses

Read like soap opera charcter bios. cooler than you

Extraneous Additions

Is it just me, or are there way too many specifics appearing in this entry, particularly in the character bios? Charlie's entry is now bigger than Bartlet's. If I wanted to know when specific thing happened to specific character in specific episode, I'd look up an episode guide - that's why there's a link to an episode guide at the bottom of the article ... and stuff about Josh and Donna's unrequited love? Is this entry encyclopedic or fanfic?  :( neuropedia 21:18, 8 Aug 2004 (UTC)

And yet you think that the fact that Sheen wasn't planned to be a major character isn't pertinent to the entry? Expand. Baylink 16:46, 4 Nov 2004 (UTC)

  • What you wrote seemed extraneous since it is already written that the series was intended to revolve around Sam, not the President. Neuropedia 00:58, 2004 Nov 7 (UTC)

As fascinating as the Josh and Donna section is, shouldn't it be left to the hardcore fan sites? I'd say it's extraneous to the vast majority of those looking at the article. Perhaps it should be moved to the Donna Moss page? --LostLeviathan 02:55, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC)

I've gone ahead and done this. The main reason is that it seemed inappropriate to have a long, season-spanning spoiler in the middle of a general article on a series that has several related articles. --LostLeviathan 00:20, 10 Dec 2004 (UTC)
Good stuff :) -- Neuropedia 14:20, 2004 Dec 10 (UTC)
