Wikipedia:WikiProject Television/Hollyoaks task force/Inclusion

The main criteria for inclusion should be notability. That being said, to avoid clutter and confusion, we should note the following.

Characters

Most characters that appear in Hollyoaks do not pass the notability guidelines on fiction. Each character that appears can be included in one of the lists of characters by year, such as list of Hollyoaks characters (2010) (see lists of Hollyoaks characters for more). Even characters with a separate article should be included in these lists. Articles can be de-merged if they grow very large, but please discuss them first (generally an article will not be de-merged if the character has appeared on screen for less than six months).

Images

Illustrations for Hollyoaks-related articles are typically taken from screen captures and websites. As such they are nearly all non-free and must only be used in conformance with the Non-free content criteria. Exceptions include pictures of people involved in the production of Hollyoaks that have been released under free licenses, allowing third parties to modify images and use images commercially. For a gallery of free images relating to Hollyoaks, see here. Most non-free images currently in Hollyoaks-related articles lack detailed or sufficient fair use rationales justifying their use in the articles. Such images are in danger of deletion; you can remedy this by writing better rationales.
