---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Ken Barlow | Work needed (1/2/21) | ||||||
An excellent article. Additions to the biography and relationships in the last two years make any suggestions seem petty - about the only thing that seems missing is an Audrey relationship sub-section as they were getting close after Deirdre passed away and this isn't covered anywhere. The background information is the main part where it falls down as it only skims the surface and is formatted as bullet points which we don't do anymore. Employment history also missing. Otherwise, some of the best work on the site that reflects the importance of the topic. | |||||||
Gail Rodwell | Major work needed (24/6/18) | ||||||
Huge omissions from biography. Currently begins at 1979 but everything from before 2012 needs expansion. Personality, Relationships and Appendices are still to be added. Background information is bare-bones. | |||||||
Rita Tanner | Work needed (24/6/18) | ||||||
Expansion needed particularly in relationship sections. Biography is on the right track but needs a proper introduction and more info on 1964. No personality or appendices yet and nothing of substance in BGI. | |||||||
Sally Metcalfe | Major work needed (26/6/18) | ||||||
Aside from personality, will require a ground-up rewrite. | |||||||
Steve McDonald | Major work needed (28/6/18) | ||||||
Biography in good shape, hitting nearly all the major beats with the only omissions being Steve's affair with Becky and his sale of the Rovers to Stella, plus everything after Ruairi's birth. No Personality, Relationships, Hobbies, Appendices, only one image, and a scant Background Information so still a lot of work needed. | |||||||
Audrey Roberts | Major work needed (28/6/18) | ||||||
To be written from scratch - bare-bones biography and one line of background information. | |||||||
Kevin Webster | Work needed (5/7/18) | ||||||
Good but out-of-date. An update tag has been added for info after 2014 - Jenny, Anna, Jack's sepsis, the expansion of the garage, etc. Personality and Appendices are to be added and the background information is presented as bullet-points instead of paragraphs. | |||||||
David Platt | Work needed (10/7/18) | ||||||
Biography is one of the best on the site. The only omission really is his work at the salon which is only mentioned briefly. Apart from the appendices and background information, all sections have a good amount of content, although personality and relationships repeat too much from the biography - here is where we mention the side-stories such as his and Kylie's battle with Audrey for the salon in 2012 and David finding Ivy's diary in 2006, even one or two non-essentials which could be moved from the biography to trim that section down. | |||||||
Roy Cropper | Work needed (23/7/18) | ||||||
In spite of the solitary tick, this article is in fairly good shape. Roy's biggest storylines are well covered in the biography, though the paragraphs on Tony Gordon and Robbie Sloane aren't really about Roy and belong elsewhere. The BGI is the best I've come across but both this and the biography haven't been updated in two years so have been tagged as out of date. | |||||||
Tracy McDonald | Work needed (24/8/18) | ||||||
Close to completion. All sections more or less read okay, but the details are in the wrong place - the biography focuses too much on the nitty gritty such as Tracy's feuds with Steve and Carla, displacing the information that belongs in that section like Tracy's jobs and marriages and how events like Deirdre's death affected her, and leaving the Relationships sections with no real content (the Deirdre and Ken sections are particularly bad for this, and I take full responsibility for this as I wrote them!) The Career section should go and BGI requires an update and formatting into paragraphs. | |||||||
Leanne Battersby | Work needed (23/2/21) | ||||||
Despite having only two ticks, this article is close to completion. Both the biography and background information require updates for post-2018 and post-2009 respectively, personality is finished, three out of seven relationship sections have been tagged for expansion, and all sections after the biography require images. This will be a lot of work but for a character of Leanne's longevity, this is really good going and credit to Carterboi33 for the additions. | |||||||
Eileen Grimshaw | Major work needed (28/8/18) | ||||||
Aside from the intro, this hasn't been updated since 2010. The biography goes into detail on a handful of storylines (baby Holly, relationship with Jesse Chadwick, Colin's death) and ignores others. No other sections written. | |||||||
Sarah Barlow | Major work needed (15/2/21) | ||||||
Biography is two thirds there - the amount of detail is exactly right, and it's not too weighted towards recent storylines. More on the Lynsay King years and an update for the last four years will make up the remaining third. Apart from that, there's only one image in the article body and a small background information. A minor update to to residences is needed and most of her employment history is missing. | |||||||
Tyrone Dobbs | Major work needed (30/8/18) | ||||||
Some parts of the biography concerning Tyrone and Molly's early romance and engagement are salvageable. Aside from that and the intro, there's nothing to see here. Ten freaking years since the last update! | |||||||
Fiz Stape | Major work needed (30/8/18) | ||||||
The biography trails off around mid-2011. I've deleted a section concerning the Maria texting storyline from 2014 as it belongs in Relationships, once that's been created - it can recovered from the edit history then. Pre-2011 is fine although storylines from 2007 onwards are recapped in much more detail than earlier ones and there's no backstory included - her upbringing, bullying of Molly, early encounters with John Stape, there's lots that could go here. Background information is a fraction of the size it should be. | |||||||
Nick Tilsley | Work needed (1/10/18) | ||||||
Bravo! Excellent biography. There's still a lack of clarity about where Nick is living and working especially in the pre-Bistro days but the storylines that aren't mentioned such as Nick's relationships with Natasha and Eva don't really belong there anyway so that's fine. Background information covers the mean beats and no more and as ever there are no personality, relationships or appendices. | |||||||
Sean Tully | Major work needed (9/11/18) | ||||||
Biography is off to a good start. The Violet/Dylan storyline and Sean's homelessness are covered well enough although his relationships with Marcus and Billy are very much skirted over. Then there's the every other section to write from scratch, of course. I've tagged it as having major work required but it's one of the better ones in that category. | |||||||
Maria Connor | Major work needed (5/11/18) | ||||||
The worst profile I've yet come across. I've tidied up the biography as best I can but this is only a patch-up job; if anyone wants to throw the whole lot away, I won't object. | |||||||
Dev Alahan | Major work needed (4/1/21) | ||||||
After the intro I've just written, the article is comprised solely of a biography copied from Wikipedia about ten years ago. I've added section headings and appropriate tags just so that readers don't think this is our best work! A policy I'll be adopting with the remaining articles. | |||||||
Peter Barlow | Work needed (14/2/21) | ||||||
I'm passing the biography up until Peter's return in 2016 (it's most recent update), but it would benefit from more detailed 1960s and 1970s sections and, for the early 2000s, more clarity about where Peter was living and working (there's no mention of the bookies until 2008, for instance). 2008 onwards verges on too much detail at points, especially the 2015 section where Peter only appeared at Deirdre's funeral, but such info can be moved to Relationships when they're being written. The background information has been passed, though there is room for expansion there too. Nice selection of images. | |||||||
Carla Barlow | Work needed (7/5/21) | ||||||
Updates needed for events since Carla's psychosis storyline in 2019. A day or two's work would finish this off. | |||||||
Kirk Sutherland | Major work needed (3/2/19) | ||||||
Another one to start from scratch. The biography recaps a handful of random storylines. The background information is short but it's a start. | |||||||
Chesney Brown | Major work needed (29/3/21) | ||||||
Biography begins rather abruptly with Chesney's first appearance. His early years are well covered (though the Sophie/Cameron McIntyre and Out of Africa paragraphs are not really relevant. Possibly the John Stape storyline as well). Detail trails off in more recent years but the only major omissions are his schooling and bullying, his work at the market (granted, it was hardly ever seen), his work at the kebab shop and the more recent stuff with Gemma and Emma. As things stand it's one of the better biographies. The page is hurt by the lack of any other sections though. | |||||||
Gary Windass | Work needed (11/5/19) | ||||||
Notdoppler did a fantastic job with this page back in 2016, but it has now fallen out of date. Every section is affected hence the lack of ticks. Really needs an image or six too. | |||||||
Toyah Battersby | Major work needed (25/2/21) | ||||||
Biography is only fractionally more detailed than the introduction, as well as being two and a half years out of date. A full rewrite is in the cards. | |||||||
Tim Metcalfe | Work needed (8/11/19) | ||||||
This was written in 2015 but besides being out-of-date, it's excessively detailed for the simple reason that Tim has been around for double the length of time now and the level of detail lessens the more long-running the character is. Saying that, Tim hasn't been at the forefront for a while so other than his work at Street Cars and the Gina and Duncan storylines, there's not much that's desperately missing. A relationship sub-section for Geoff Metcalfe is a definite. | |||||||
Todd Grimshaw | Major work needed (24/6/19) | ||||||
The biography is good from about 2007 to 2015 but severely lacking in detail before and after that, with a jump straight from the 2015 live episode to Todd's exit and no mention of Billy Mayhew at all. The background information has been started but, as usual, it only covers the basics. | |||||||
Mary Cole | Major work needed (15/10/19) | ||||||
Biography is in terrific shape until mid-2010 but there are whole years missing after this with no mention of Mary losing her motor home or working for Tracy. It's considerably out of date as well with the last update being in early 2017. As for the rest of the article, BGI is a bulleted list again and Other Information is hanging in there. It does have full Appendices though so that's something. | |||||||
Jenny Connor | Work needed (8/5/21) | ||||||
Up-to-date as of its last MOT in November 2019. Update tags added to biography and the Johnny relationship which are the areas to focus on. | |||||||
Amy Barlow | Good (24/1/21) | ||||||
No comments. | |||||||
Beth Sutherland | Major work needed (9/11/19) | ||||||
There's not much here worth keeping. The biography covers Beth's arrival up until she started dating Kirk but even that's missing her coming to work at Underworld so the entire section will have to be checked over for omissions. Since then we've met her family and found out about Darryl Parkins, we know enough now for a redraft to start from Beth's birth. Two of the three points in the background information relate only to Beth the character. Appendices only mention Beth's current job and home. | |||||||
Simon Barlow | Work needed (15/2/21) | ||||||
Pascal11 wrote this article several years ago and did a damn good job with it. The biography up to 2016 doesn't need to be touched so I have added an 'update' tag for everything afterwards - the Tyler storylines, Oliver's death, looking after Leanne, and the current drugs storyline. Other sections are as bitty as everyone else's. Residences missing everything pre-2018. Main image badly needs updated as well. | |||||||
Izzy Armstrong | Major work needed (20/1/21) | ||||||
Biography is very good up until the end of the surrogacy storyline. After this, it becomes more about Gary with paragraphs on his fake death and one-night-stand with Nicola having even though they've got buggar all to do with Izzy. | |||||||
Adam Barlow | Major work needed (24/1/21) | ||||||
"Serviceable" about sums it up. A thin biography trails off in 2017, and a minimalist background section covers the 'what' while leaving out the 'why'. The address list is complete though which was a nice surprise. Even though I'd classify the pre-2017 biography as adequate, every line of it needs expansion so, in effect, this will need a complete rewrite. | |||||||
Faye Windass | Major work needed (14/5/20) | ||||||
Biography is not too bad, there are gaps though namely Faye's backstory, gaining contact with Tim, and everything since she met Seb. No other sections started yet. | |||||||
Ryan Connor | Major work needed (27/5/20) | ||||||
Storylines are either covered well (the baby swap, 2012-13 stint, relationship with Bethany) or bypassed (backstory, arrival in Weatherfield, 2010 departure). Hopefully, this means that a complete biography is just a matter of plugging the holes. BGI, though brief, is only really missing Ryan's initial introduction. No images, peronality or relationships and the appendices are out of date. So it isn't horrible. | |||||||
Daniel Osbourne | Major work needed (29/5/20) | ||||||
The period up to Daniel's return in 2016 is well documented, but it very much stops there. | |||||||
Alya Nazir | Major work needed (7/6/20) | ||||||
The biography adequately covers Alya's first four years, minus images and an introductory paragraph going over Alya's early life including her studies. The appendices and background information have been started but are nowhere near comprehensive. The last two years and all other sections still to be written. | |||||||
Johnny Connor | Work needed (8/5/21) | ||||||
A biography that's off to a good start, especially the oft-brushed over backstory. The MS storyline is missing and it needs an update for everything after July 2018, including the revelations about his involvement with Scott Emberton. Johnny's address list is complete, though not his employment history. | |||||||
Billy Mayhew | Major work needed (27/6/20) | ||||||
The biography is a random collection of side-stories - Billy and Sean meeting the homophobic landlord in the Peak District, the modern slavery storyline - worth a mention in the article, but not in Billy's biography. The parts that form the core of his story - everything with Todd, Summer, and his brother Lee - are brushed over with a minimum of detail. Sadly this looks like another one we'll have to start from scratch. | |||||||
Gemma Winter | Major work needed (26/6/20) | ||||||
Comprehensive coverage of Gemma's "guest star" period in the biography - this should be combined into one section and trimmed now that Gemma has been around a while. The section runs up to 2016 when Gemma was taken on at the kebab shop so a lot of ground to cover still. The background information is nearly finished, depending on how much there is to say about her more recent storylines - Chesney, the quads, the introductions of Bernie and Paul. | |||||||
Max Turner | Major work needed (14/6/20) | ||||||
Only Max's debut storyline with Kylie selling him to Becky is covered in detail, probably more than is necessary considering that Max was just a child and therefore not the one driving the story forward - Becky robbing the Corner Shop for example isn't really relevant here. The biography trails off after 2011 and nothing else has been started bar the appendices. | |||||||
Yasmeen Nazir | Major work needed (19/7/20) | ||||||
A background information section that's literally one line and a biography that has no introduction, plucks random events out of thin air to mention pre-2016 and is sketchy after that. I could go into more detail but there's nothing here worth saving sans the intro (which itself will shortly be out of date). | |||||||
Craig Tinker | Major work needed (21/7/20) | ||||||
Most sections have something in them now that the 'Other Information' has been broken up, nevertheless this article has major omissions. Taking the biography - it picks up the story in 2011, mentions Craig meeting Caitlin but says nothing further about their relationship, the beginnings of Craig's interest in the police is missing, as is his time cleaning windows with Tim and everything from the past three years. Gaps that will leap out at anyone reading it. Another for the total rewrite pile, salvaging what we can. | |||||||
Brian Packham | Major work needed (31/7/20) | ||||||
The 2010-2015 years are on the right track, albeit a tad bloated in parts (the bit about Russ Gray can go, for sure). An update should start from Brian's 2016 return now that we can view that storyline in context of what followed. The background information is one of the longer ones but much of it is dating Brian's various comings and goings and storyline recaps - storylines should only be mentioned here if we have some production insight on them. No images, and no other sections. | |||||||
Cathy Matthews | Work needed (8/8/20) | ||||||
Another kitchen sink biography, with nothing in the other sections. As the information is at least on the page and well written, I make this a lower priority to rewrite. The biography does only run up to 2017 though and there are certain bits that go into detail beyond the remit of Cathy's page, such as Carla and Nick's wedding - we don't need to know what went on at the altar, all that matters is that Carla hit Cathy with her car. | |||||||
Shona Ramsey | Major work needed (13/9/20) | ||||||
Biography is two years out of date, covering everything up to David's rape storyline. Everything else as indicated above. | |||||||

Bravo Carterboi! House style and templates are followed to the letter, the writing is on point and flows well. This page only fails to make the grade as it's slightly out of date now and there is potential for a relationships section to mention the smaller storylines Asha's been involved in with the other teens. | |||||||

Aadi Alahan | Work neeeded (1/1/21) | ||||||
A character who is just starting to be be used more, so the completed page would likely not be very large. Nevertheless, key details are missing from the biography including the status of Dev and Sunita's relationship when Aadi was born and his other siblings. The background information is short as well but seems comprehensive. Appendices are completed as well. | |||||||
Emma Brooker | Major work needed (29/3/21) | ||||||
An article that needed trimmed and to be honest I could have taken more out - to be clear, I didn't remove anything related to Emma. It was a case of "too much information". For example, I felt Emma's story was being drowned out by details of David's rape plot which she had only a peripheral involvement in. Also needs updated for events since autumn 2018. The background information has the essentials in amongst puff quotes promoting the current storyline which are not very interesting. Quotes should give readers insight into either the writing or performance of the character. | |||||||

Michael Bailey | Major work needed (22/1/21) | ||||||
Biography is just a recap of Michael's history with Grace plus the Tianna twist, but manages not to mention that Grace wasn't Tianna's mother. Apart from the intro and appendices, this is another blank slate. | |||||||

It's also missing a scene-setting paragraph with an explanation of why the Baileys moved to the street. | |||||||

Former cast: High priority
Name | Lead | Bio | Rest | BGI | Apps | Images | Status |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Deirdre Barlow | Work needed (25/1/21) | ||||||
Biography is in good shape though key storylines could be expanded, namely the Wendy Crozier affair, Deirdre and Ken's bitter divorce, the Weatherfield One, Ken and Deirdre's re-marriage and Ray's death. These are mentioned, but the first few especially are critical to Deirdre's story. There are brief personality, hobbies and role in the community section and relationships that are so thin they might just as well be deleted - these really bring the article down. Background information is superb though and gets a strong pass. Appendices are half done with just the jobs to fill out. | |||||||
Emily Bishop | Work needed (25/3/21) | ||||||
Just an employment history away from good status now. | |||||||
Betty Williams | Major work needed (10/7/18) | ||||||
Biography covers all the main storylines, despite its brevity. Background information could do with expansion particularly on Betty's early years. No other sections written yet. | |||||||
Liz McDonald | Work needed (20/7/18) | ||||||
Biography is getting there - it's good from about 1995 until 2008 with some major omissions from other years including backstory, the McDonalds' arrival, Katie's death, her breakdown and relationship with Lloyd in 2009, and her romances after 2013. With images and sub-sections merged it'll be finished. A great start has been made on the BGI too but it's nowhere near comprehensive. No other sections written. | |||||||
Mike Baldwin | Major work needed (24/1/21) | ||||||
The sale of the factory up until Mike's marriage to Jackie is covered in exhaustive detail, with other years covered more briefly. Unfortunately, there are still major omissions with no mention of Underworld, the Don Brennan feud, or the sportswear factory. It'll be a lot of work to get the biography into shape, but plenty of it is salvagablable. BGI is much too short for a character of Mike's standin, saying nothing about the character pre-2004, and no other sections have been started. | |||||||
Vera Duckworth | Major work needed (19/7/18) | ||||||
Biography is really unbalanced as the majority of it is not detailed enough (and not in chronological order, as preferred) and Vera's last year has too much detail, especially her death and subsequent mentions the latter of which belongs in other sections. A start has been made on BGI but that's it. | |||||||
Jack Duckworth | Major work needed (20/7/18) | ||||||
Much like Vera's page, the biography lacks detail and isn't organised chronologically, although the section on Jack's death is good. A minimal BGI section and nothing else on the page. | |||||||
Bet Lynch | Major work needed (28/8/18) | ||||||
Biography does a decent job of covering Bet's main storylines, though her later ones are described in far greater detail than earlier ones. Again, important details like where Bet was living at various times are omitted. Vicky deserves a mention before 1995 and definitely the Charlie Whelan/Tanya Pooley affair should go there too. No personality or relationships yet and only a small background information. | |||||||

Len Fairclough | Good (16/10/18) | ||||||
This gets a pass but it's far from perfect. The language and phrasing used in the body of the article is rudimentary and repetitive, and the Other Information section will have to go at some point. I've tidied it up as best I can without a full rewrite. | |||||||
Annie Walker | Good (16/10/18) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Norris Cole | Work needed (5/5/21) | ||||||
Cracking article! Good work editors. The biography fails only for the two timeline gaps which have neen tagged, the later sections on a short-ish Mary relationship section, and images for the lack of visuals on the page. We could even stretch to a Ken sub section and add the Stillwaters storylines there. But this is very, very close to completion and was a pleasure to read. The hobbies and interests section in particular was a delight - nice when there's a lot to say! | |||||||
Martin Platt | Major work needed (17/10/18) | ||||||
Total rewrite needed apart from the intro. The biography is missing chunks including everything from 1991-1999, but the section on post-2005 mentions of Martin will prove useful when the time comes. The Background Information is in a similar state, going over his exit and return but nothing more. This may become a priority if Sean Wilson returns again. | |||||||
Michelle Connor | Major work needed (18/1/19) | ||||||
Much of the information in the biography would be better placed in other sections, particularly the parts about Michelle's first relationship with Steve which is practically an episode-by-episode synopsis which we try to avoid as it doesn't make for good reading. I've placed Incomplete tags at appropriate points in the biography where there are significant gaps, namely mid-2008-mid-2010 and 2011-2016. Background information is off to a nice start. | |||||||

Curly Watts | Major work needed (9/11/18) | ||||||
Move along, nothing to see here! The page has more to say about Kevin Kennedy's much-expressed desire to return to the programme than about Curly himself. For the same reason as Martin Platt, this could be one to watch. | |||||||
Sophie Webster | Work needed (19/1/19) | ||||||
A lot of work has gone into the page and there's some good writing here. Nevertheless, there are gaps in the biography, notably where Sophie's sexuality is discovered and most of Sophie and Maddie's relationship. It also gets a tad too detailed in the latter sections which cover her romance with Paula Martin (and yet, very little about Sophie's involvement in Sally's court case). There are quite a few tangents which belong elsewhere, such as the Ronan Truman subplot and the Rovers fire (which barely concerned Sophie). The relationship section isn't divided up into subsections and mostly regurtitates the broad strokes already written into the biography. This could be wiped and started from scratch without losing anything. As a whole, it's good enough that I haven't added the 'major cleanup' but it's on the cusp. | |||||||
Janice Battersby | Major work needed (23/2/21) | ||||||
The biography jumps from 1997 to 2005 - nearly all of Janice's major storylines happened in this gap, so it gets a major cleanup tag even though the portion on 2007-11 needs only a little bit of tidying up. Personality, Relationships and Background Information have been started but only contain the broad strokes. | |||||||
Jason Grimshaw | Major work needed (20/1/19) | ||||||
Another article with a biography which focuses on the character's love life and pretty much ignores his work history and family life. There are significant gaps in that area too, with Jason's relationships with Tina, Rosie, Stella and Eva wholly missing, though the Sarah and Violet years are covered well enough. This will likely need a ground-up re-write in any case. No other sections written yet. | |||||||
Hayley Cropper | Good (27/1/19) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Rosie Webster | Major work needed (27/1/19) | ||||||
One section of the biography covering 2005-08 is reasonably detailed, though will need redrafted as part of a full section rewrite. As for the rest, there's just too much missing for anything less than a major cleanup tag. | |||||||
Albert Tatlock | Good (2/2/19) | ||||||
Satisfactory but brief for such a major character, and my all-time favourite. Watch this space. | |||||||
Ashley Peacock | Major work needed (4/2/19) | ||||||
The Casey affair is the only storyline covered in detail, and there are loads of gaps, including no mention (outside the intro) of Matt Ramsden being Joshua's father. No other sections started yet aside from a background information that begins with the character's axing. | |||||||
Stan Ogden | Major work needed (11/2/19) | ||||||
The Biography is ported from Wikipedia (and in the correct tense thankfully) so it's readable, with all the main beats. We do like to delve deeper though and the fact that it's copied from another site is a big no-no. | |||||||
Ivy Brennan | Major work needed (26/3/21) | ||||||
Under construction. | |||||||
Jim McDonald | Major work needed (16/2/19) | ||||||
The middle part covering Jim's first return in 2003 to the bank robbery in 2011 hits exactly the right level of detail. Later storylines seriously need trimming and earlier ones are skimmed over with events of 1993-95 - big years for Jim - not mentioned at all. A perfunctory background information and a wrongly formatted appendix rounds off the page. | |||||||
Ena Sharples | Work needed (17/2/19) | ||||||
Integrating the 'Other information' section, expanding the BGI and formatting it into paragraphs, and writing the appendices will bring this up to 'Good' standard. However it speeds through Ena's history so fast that I feel there's a far better page in here. For example, the 1963 storyline where the vestry is wrecked by Michael Butterworth had a long build-up where Ena had refused to allow a children's party to be held at the Mission causing everyone to turn against her. This goes unmentioned despite being crucial to the story and many other storylines are similarly missing context. | |||||||
Alma Halliwell | Major work needed (24/2/19) | ||||||
Another cut and paste job. | |||||||
Fred Elliott | Major work needed (21/3/19) | ||||||
Yet another biography ported from another site, and one that doesn't fit our tone, I say it doesn't fit our tone (sorry, couldn't resist). Anyone working on this page should start off by wiping the biography. | |||||||
Anna Windass | Major work needed (24/3/19) | ||||||
Biography patchy until 2016, but pretty good after that. Anna's relationship with Owen is almost entirely glossed over and, despite the heavy detail covering Phelan's return, his original stint isn't mentioned. Appendices need checking for exact dates, especially when Anna stopped cleaning the Rovers. | |||||||
Les Battersby-Brown | Work needed (27/2/21) | ||||||
Biography is very good with no obvious gaps. A few images will finish that section off. The background section has been started but is nowhere near comprehensive. All other sections still to be written. A lot of work to do but it's further along than most. | |||||||
Minnie Caldwell | Work needed (10/4/21) | ||||||
Two appendices, a hobbies and interests and a full background information away from 'good'. As another rush job from the early days of the site, however, a do-over would benefit it greatly. Minnie's marriage to Armistead is covered in greater detail on his page, including the Marple Lakes story - that should be mentioned somewhere. | |||||||
Percy Sugden | Major work needed (13/4/19) | ||||||
Yet more cutting and pasting. The tone of the biography is all wrong for our site. | |||||||
Lloyd Mullaney | Work needed (13/4/19) | ||||||
Fantastic biography! One small change would be to start the story with Lloyd's birth and mention the Kamaras in the first section in order to set the stage for Mandy and Jenna's arrival in 2012. Apart from that, it's exactly what we're looking for. Other sections have at least been started, appendices aside. Good selection and spacing of images as well. Bravo. | |||||||
Bethany Platt | Good (22/7/19) | ||||||
That's more like it! Carterboi (and others) have crafted a fantastic article on Bethany and clearly done their research. Personality is tagged as incomplete however while it could certainly be expanded I'd still classify it as adequate, hence the 'Good' rating for the article as a whole. The Background information could probably be fleshed out too, as it only runs up to Bethany's re-introduction. Relationship sections on Callum and Nathan went over the same ground as the Biography hence their removal but Craig does deserve one. I only took it off because it was one sentence long which would have caused the article to be downgraded. Another image or two in the latter sections would spruce it up too. | |||||||
Tina McIntyre | Work needed (12/6/19) | ||||||
A good article, but not quite a "Good" one. A completed appendices and a fleshed out relationship with David will earn it the promotion. Beyond that, there's too much repetition from biography in the relationships section - either trim the biography, or lose the sub-sections on Jason and Graeme. Possiby add a section on Rita too, as her interactions with Tina aren't really covered anywhere. | |||||||
Alec Gilroy | Good (12/6/19) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Blanche Hunt | Major work needed (22/6/19) | ||||||
Surprisingly little on the page considering Blanche's popularity. All the key events are at least mentioned in the biography, ready and waiting for someone to come along and beef them up. Suggestions are to introduce Dave Smith before their reunion in 1976, and move the AA meeting and George Wilson paragraphs to other sections, possibly personality (a good place for examples of her putdowns). | |||||||
Ray Langton | Major work needed (29/6/19) | ||||||
The intro and some details about Ray's background and his missing years can stay, the rest can go. | |||||||
Jack Walker | Work needed (29/6/19) | ||||||
As one of the earliest pages written, this falls short of the level of detail we now expect. However, the background information is the only section where this really hurts the quality of the article. Two other issues are the publicity shot in the infobox rather than a screencap and the lack of appendices. A day's work maybe? | |||||||
Des Barnes | Good (23/2/21) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Eva Price | Major work needed (25/7/19) | ||||||
Not great. The biography does admittedly cover most of Eva's principal storylines pre-2017. The only glaring omission that comes to mind is Eva's split from Nick (in fact, most of their relationship). However, it's all condensed into one section and is really just the starting point for a full rework. Relationships and BGI are in a similar state. | |||||||
Shelley Unwin | Major work needed (11/8/19) | ||||||
The biography is dominated by the Charlie Stubbs storyline. Everything around it needs fleshing out, especially Shelley's first couple of years on the show. | |||||||
Lucille Hewitt | Work needed (25/8/19) | ||||||
Another one almost untouched since the early days of the site. Fails for having no appendices, a now-defunct 'other information' section, and a seriously brief BGI. The earlier sections are fine in that they contain all the info but they aren't great as pieces of prose in their own right. Possibly the worst image selection of any page yet which is another symptom of the time it was written when we had far fewer episodes at our disposal. | |||||||
Sunita Alahan | Work needed (6/1/21) | ||||||
A very good biography, missing only Sunita's reconciliation with her parents and the resolution of the tram crash storyline where Becky confessed to stealing from the shop. The remainder of the article is as thin as usual. | |||||||
Don Brennan | Major work needed (26/3/21) | ||||||
Nothing but headings and cleanup tags. No Don fans willing to take the plunge? | |||||||
Derek Wilton | Major work needed (9/11/19) | ||||||
The biography was copied from another site, so out it went. The tone didn't fit Corriepedia anyway. So this is another one that's effectively a blank page. | |||||||
Becky McDonald | Major work needed (24/11/19) | ||||||
A patchwork. There is a decent-sized biography however some chapters in Becky's life are skipped over - her debut and initial storyline with Kelly Crabtree, her re-introduction, her affair with Steve, the double proposal, the wedding day arrest, and robbing the Corner Shop. What's there isn't especially well-written with little focus or flow to it. The other sections have been started but are a long way from being complete. | |||||||
Dennis Tanner | Work needed (26/11/19) | ||||||
Very close to making the grade, but the personality and hobbies sections could be better and relationships has still to be written - there's a wealth of unmentioned material for an Elsie sub-section. Other information needs to go as well. | |||||||
Claire Peacock | Major work needed (14/4/20) | ||||||
The biography grows more detailed as it goes on, as her first three years are covered in three lines and her final months have four paragraphs devoted to them. Nothing is overly detailed, at least - 2008 onwards can probably be kept as is. There is also no mention of her work after quitting nannying, and no images. As for the other sections, a short background information is all there is. | |||||||
Julie Carp | Major work needed (10/4/21) | ||||||
Holy moly! The level of writing here is the sort that gives wikias a bad name - random tense changes, swathes of irrelevant info, timeline gaps, the lot. It's readable now and covers all the basics, but it's still badly written so I can't sign off on it. A start has been made to personality which makes a refreshing change. | |||||||
Maxine Peacock | Major work needed (15/4/20) | ||||||
Again, the biography isn't much longer than lead section and skips over entire years. This one, at least, reads like a piece of prose and not a Frankenstein's monster. | |||||||
Jerry Booth | Good (25/3/21) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Valerie Barlow | Good (23/2/21) | ||||||
Definitely the least good 'Good' article yet. It's very short for someone who was around as long as Val and some plots are the thinnest of story outlines - Ken's affair with Jackie Marsh being one with no mention of how Val found out. A revisit should include mention of how Val dealt with Ken's snobby friends including their row in 1963 when he went out with Marian Lund which was a big deal. | |||||||
Kylie Platt | Good (18/4/20) | ||||||
Appendices need exact dates but otherwise complete. | |||||||
Andy McDonald | Major work needed (18/4/20) | ||||||
Nada. | |||||||
Sinead Tinker | Work needed (22/4/20) | ||||||
Sinead's page has been gutted to half its original size removing most of the repetition and irrelevant relationship sections. What's left covers Sinead's storylines adequately although there are a few too many instances of "so and so finds out about____" with no explanation of how they did so - these need to be checked over and details added. Apart from that, all sections need to be updated for Sinead's final year, a section on the Tinker family added to put in more about Sinead's upbringing (see the episodes just before her death) and the background information only goes into her introduction at present. | |||||||
Fred Gee | Major work needed (12/5/20) | ||||||
Bit of a strange one - the biography isn't much larger than the intro (and even has some of the same wording) however as all story beats are technically covered I have passed it. That's not to say it can't be greatly expanded to put some meat on those bones. The rest of the article is as slight as usual, with no relationships or appendices. | |||||||
Bill Webster | Good (12/5/20) | ||||||
Personality, relationship and BGI sections are a tad brief but serviceable. | |||||||
Owen Armstrong | Work needed (20/1/21) | ||||||
I hate to criticise this one. And indeed, if the article was just a biography, this would only be missing the 2012 surrogacy storyline. However, in being so all-encompassing it doesn't always tell Owen's story from his perspective, or stick to the events which most shaped his life. The 2011 storyline of Eileen stealing from Owen is one that didn't really amount to anything and could go elsewhere, perhaps Personality as it came during Owen's 'villain' phase. But this would be very much a matter of whittling down what's there rather than a full rewrite. Other sections are slim, as usual. | |||||||
Raquel Watts | Major work needed (28/5/20) | ||||||
Clean slate, folks. | |||||||
Brian Tilsley | Work needed (29/5/20) | ||||||
Intro and biography completed, the rest not started. | |||||||
Eddie Yeats | Work needed (29/5/20) | ||||||
A few very minor issues holding this one back - the 'Other information' section needs to go, background information to be re-formatted as prose, and appendices written. There are better images at our disposal as well compared with 2008 when this was written, not the least of which is a screencap for the main image. The article itself isn't bad for an early effort, though the personality section badly needs examples to illustrate the points it makes. |
Former cast: Medium priority
Name | Lead | Bio | Rest | BGI | Apps | Images | Status |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Kelly Crabtree | Work needed (31/5/20) | ||||||
The short biography adequately covers Kelly's one major storyline, on that basis I've gone for the 'update' tag for the bits and pieces from 2006-9 and her exit storyline. There's nothing else on the page but for a supporting character like Kelly there won't be much to add. | |||||||
Robert Preston | Major work neeeded (4/6/20) | ||||||
There's the beginnings of a good page here. The period up to Robert's split from Tracy in 2016 is exhaustively covered - there'll be a lot of unnecessary detail needing taken out here. Then, a major update for Robert's last three years. The background information section looks good, amply covering Robert's introduction, recasting and exit, so it gets a pass. Other sections are not started (personality/relationships) or in progress (appendices). | |||||||
Phyllis Pearce | Work needed (4/6/20) | ||||||
A short biography but one whose length befits the small role that Phyllis played. Most of Phyllis's storylines revolved around Percy so the lack of a relationship section does hurt the article. The Des section could be a lot longer as well. No other sections started. | |||||||
Karen McDonald | Work needed (7/6/20) | ||||||
The biography makes for a terrific read. There are a few storylines that will sit better in a personality or relationship section, particularly from the 2004 portion, but I'm happy to leave them where they are for the moment. | |||||||
Fiona Middleton | Major work needed (7/6/20) | ||||||
Completely blank apart from the intro and a background note on Fiona's 2019 return | |||||||
Natalie Barnes | Major work needed (23/2/21) | ||||||
The biography gives a good surface level recap of Natalie's storylines, but doesn't quite work as a biography - there's no backstory nor mention of her marriage to Nick Horrocks, and lacks details on where Natalie was living, and the storyline where Kevin bought her out of the garage is missing. Also no mention of her giving birth to Laura after she left the show. Nothing on the rest of the page. | |||||||
Violet Wilson | Major work needed (13/6/20) | ||||||
Violet's biography nearly gets a pass, though it is rather choppily written. More info on her relationship with Jason is needed - how they got together, how was she "seduced" by Charlie, why did they get back together. There's the usual problems of where Violet was living not being mentioned, other than her moving into No.11, and no backstory. The rest of the page is a blank slate. | |||||||
Molly Dobbs | Work needed (25/6/20) | ||||||
The biography is pretty much there, even though the detail is slanted towards her last two years this reflects Molly's larger role from 2008 onwards. There aren't any images but I've granted a pass to the text portion of the biography, with all other sections bar the (short) BGI yet to be started. | |||||||
Maud Grimes | Major work needed (26/6/20) | ||||||
Another classic character with no page to speak of. | |||||||
Stella Price | Work needed (28/6/20) | ||||||
Stella's biography is short in parts, especially the 2012 portion with Karl and Sunita's affair, but gets the job done. The BGI covers the basics but lacks detail. All other sections not started. | |||||||
Tommy Duckworth | Work needed (28/6/20) | ||||||
Those ticks are looking good! The only parts missing are Personality, a full Relationships section (not that Tommy would have an especially large one), and a comprehensive employment history. | |||||||
Kate Connor | Major work needed (8/5/21) | ||||||
Kate's backstory and introductory storyline are very covered. Somewhat surprisingly, it's the Rana sections that are most lacking although everything from the beginning of 2016 onwards needs gone through. There was a lot of unsourced information from the background information under controversies, with a sub-section about the "bury your gays" trope. When properly sourced, this can be re-added, keeping in mind that this is Kate's page and not Rana's. Address list is complete but Kate's employment history only has her work at the bistro. | |||||||
Gary Mallett | Major work needed (19/7/20) | ||||||
The biography is marked as being ported from Wikipedia, so anyone writing the page should remove this. No other sections started. | |||||||
Charlie Stubbs | Work needed (19/7/20) | ||||||
Biography covers all the main story beats, and even has an introduction. The only part that needs changing is the section on on Holly - this should either be moved or deleted, since Holly has her own page anyway, while keeping mention of Charlie meeting Emma and fathering the child. No other sections started and no images either, besides the main one. | |||||||
Jamie Baldwin | Major work needed (22/1/21) | ||||||
Shortest page I've come across. | |||||||
Maggie Cooke | Good (20/2/18) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Ernest Bishop | Major work needed (25/3/21) | ||||||
Biography is half the size of the intro - there's nothing worth keeping here. In splitting up the 'Other Information' section, with info on references to Ernie after his death, I've created a relationship section with Emily for these but there will be a whole lot more to add to it. In fact, all sections are so short that it's basically a whole new article we need. | |||||||
Reg Holdsworth | Work needed (22/7/20) | ||||||
Article is really coming along, with a biography that's only missing the events of A Knight's Tale, and a complete personality section. In other words, it's well over half complete. Those sections do need images, along with the others, and the BGI only mentions his return appearances. | |||||||
Ciaran McCarthy | Major work needed (22/7/20) | ||||||
Another patchy biography with nothing else on the page. Ciaran's 2004 relationship with Tracy and the restaurant scam is the one major omission. Other than that, it's just a general clean-up needed and info moved to appropriate sections and the biography will get a pass, given that Ciaran was never that big a character. | |||||||
Billy Walker | Good (22/6/18) | ||||||
No comments | |||||||
Maureen Webster | Work needed (22/7/20) | ||||||
While brief, the biography does cover all of Maureen's history including her backstory. Nice image selection as well. No personality or relationships and the BGI only mentions (though not in great detail) her axing and 2006 return. | |||||||
Irma Barlow | Good (30/1/21) | ||||||
The level of detail in the biography is bang on, sans a couple of storylines that could be moved to a beefed up relationships section - Stan, Hilda and David all deserve sections. The Hotspurs and Ron Jenkins storylines, for example. Could do with mentioning Irma's love/hate relationship with the shop and how she couldn't stand living in Australia as context for the car crash. Just throwing some suggestions in there. | |||||||
Candice Stowe | Major work needed (31/7/20) | ||||||
Just an intro. | |||||||
Danny Baldwin | Major work needed (22/1/21) | ||||||
A very short biography actually covers most of the essentials, but misses some key details such as the the circumstances of his arrival in Weatherfield, buying into Underworld, and why the Baldwins were renting No.7, plus there is no mention of his first wife Carol. These would be simple to insert but a more detailed rewrite would be preferable. | |||||||
Katy Armstrong | Major work needed (20/1/21) | ||||||
Katy's first year is covered in some detail, then we jump from Joseph's birth to 2014, skipping over her affair with Ryan and breakup with Chesney (just saying that they happened isn't sufficient for a biography - we want detail!). Other than that, there's just some bullet points in the background information, which again need fleshing out. | |||||||
Bev Unwin | Work needed (26/8/20) | ||||||
Biography is short but adequately covers all of Bev's storylines. The background information only mentions her 2015 return. No other sections started. | |||||||
Aidan Connor | Work needed (6/5/21) | ||||||
Biography is a good length, with the backstory and Eva/Maria sections covered in depth. The last section picking up from the factory closure requires expansion though - for eexample, it doesn't mention his efforts to re-open the factory, his good deeds ahead of his suicide, his planned suicide being put off by Carla's operation, or his falling out with Johnny. Earlier sections would benefit from mentioning how he and Eva got together given how important that relationship became. The Eva/Maria section itself, though detailed, is a straight storyline recap rather than telling events from Aidan's perspective, as we prefer on character pages, but this is a lower priority. No other sections started besides the BGI, which is just a couple of bullet points. | |||||||
Terry Duckworth | Major work needed (22/9/20) | ||||||
Terry's years as a regular are brushed over with lots unmentioned - Andrea and Paul, breaking into the shop, living with Hilda, working for Mike. Even the storylines that are mentioned aren't gone through in detail. Later years are good enough to pass though they could still do with more detail. Background information is very short considering Terry's many comings and goings. No other sections started. | |||||||
Judy Mallett | Majo work needed (22/9/20) | ||||||
At present the biography is basically the intro again with some words changed. One for the clean slate pile. | |||||||
Pat Phelan | Major work neeed (26/9/20) | ||||||
A biography that's in many parts an episode-by-episode synopsis and yet often missing crucial details makes this a frustrating page to read. For example, it says Phelan and Vinny formed a scam together, but doesn't say what it is. 2016 on the whole isn't as detailed as the other years. Eight paragraphs for Phelan's downfall and demise is ridiculous - it should be half that. The background information is a good length but apart from the quote from Kate Oates it's just recapping the storylines Phelan was involved with, and not telling us anything insightful. Unfortunately, the problems are endemic throughout the page and it may be quicker to start from scratch. | |||||||
Angie Freeman | Major work needed (26/9/20) | ||||||
Move along, nothing to see here! | |||||||
Frankie Baldwin | Major work needed (22/1/21) | ||||||
The biography is another short one that doesn't properly introduce Frankie or provide a backstory, but apart from its wobbly introduction it does admittedly cover all the essentials. BGI mentions Romanian Holiday and nothing more. | |||||||
John Stape | Work needed (21/11/20) | ||||||
Credit where it's due - the biography is comprehensive, the style and formatting is correct, and there is a sizable relationships section. This only misses the mark because it has no personality section or appendices and the background information is a bulleted list. | |||||||
Vikram Desai | Major work needed (21/11/20) | ||||||
As the crosses show, this is just an intro. | |||||||
Liam Connor | Work needed (20/12/20) | ||||||
Level of detail in the biography is exactly right. One small addition would be an introductory paragraph mentioning Liam growing up with his siblings and Carla as we've learned quite a bit over the years. The background information could do with expansion covering Liam's introduction and anything else prior to his exit. No other sections started. | |||||||
Linda Baldwin | Major work needed (22/1/21) | ||||||
I almost didn't pass the biography due to its short length, but Linda's main storylines are covered so decided to be generous. But it's passing by a hair and could do with more detail, especially with regards to the affair with Mark - how did it get started? Who initiated it? Who did Linda really love? A good biography should answer those questions. No other sections started. | |||||||
Cilla Battersby-Brown | Major work needed (26/2/21) | ||||||
Some pivotal gaps aside - Cilla's backstory, the Rita compensation storyline, Out of Africa - the biography is complete. The hot tub storyline shouldn't be in there though. Background information is slight but better than nothing. | |||||||

Biography passes, everything's there with my only suggestion being the cursory introductory paragraph laying out Steph's DOB and what we know of her life before Coronation Street. The background information has the core details but as this is a modern day character we should be able to put some meat on those bones. No other sections started. | |||||||

Biography OK with the only major omission being Luke's part in the revenge porn storyline, and his death is missing a lot of key information including how Luke got onto Andy's trail, what he found out and what exactly occurred in his showdown with Phelan. Plenty more to mention in the unwritten sections - his near miss with Carla, definitely. No BGI at all. | |||||||

An article that reads like it was written by someone with little to no first-hand experience of the character. I have passed the biography regardless as it contains all the raw facts, at least the ones that relate to Frank's on-screen history; there is more in the history books that expand on his backstory. The background information only refers to Frank's axings and returns, when there is plenty to say about his creation and casting with Frank being an original character so this section does not pass. | |||||||

Very nearly makes it - all written sections are fine, appendices are missing as is relationships.

Biography is another bloated one, particularly with regards with Andy's final year which has eight paragraphs devoted to it which are form almost an episode-by-episode synopsis (and some parts even minute-by-minute). The introduction is also problematic as it dives straight into the Gavin Rodwell storyline with no scene-setting or context for the deception. Hobbies and background are good though and get a pass. | |||||||

The entire biography could do with fleshing out but Mike and Susan's marriage - literally everything between the wedding day and Susan's exit storyline - is the only part omitted entirely. The background information does its job and just needs an image montage of the four Susans. Relationships is just a sentence I moved from the lead that made more sense there. | |||||||

Shirley Armitage | Work needed (18/1/21) | ||||||
Another article that was satisfactory earlier in Corriepedia's lifetime but falls short now that we require all main characters to have personality and relationships sections, plus appendices. Other than that, it's in good nick. | |||||||

Andrea Beckett | Major work needed (27/2/21) | ||||||
Effectively a whole new article needed as the biography describes Andrea's first dozen or so episodes and thus focuses on her relationship with Steve which didn't end up being that important. BGI is a sentence about her casting, which needs expansion. Hobbies and interests is little more than a placeholder. | |||||||

Claudia Colby | Work needed (4/5/21) | ||||||
The biography contains a few stories that are out of place there - the mentions of her between 2011 and 2018, Lewis's return and death - these belong in an Audrey relationship section. That being said, the storylines in which Claudia had a central role are appropriately detailed so once those other parts are removed, this section will be in really good shape - updated to include Claudia's final year. Background is short but has the necessaries. Address list needed. | |||||||

Oliver Battersby | N/A | Good (24/2/21) | |||||
It's complete, albeit lacking the personality/relationship sections due to Oliver's age. The background information could potentially be expanded once we know more about the thought behind the mitochondria storyline. | |||||||

I copied, pasted and trimmed the biography to make the intro - it's a cheat, but the biography will need to be redrafted anyway. Nowt else on t'page. | |||||||
Christine Appleby | Work needed (12/1/21) | ||||||
A textbook biography, a BGI to rework and no other sections started. I say textbook because the biography leaves out just enough to expand on in the relationships section, such as why she were Esther are so close, how she gets on with Elsie both at work and in her personal life, etc. | |||||||

Paul Clayton | Work needed (25/4/21) | ||||||
A comprehensive biography that has the right amount of detail. No other sections started, but I've added a relationships heading in case anyone wants to remove certain story beats from the biography and place them here. Paul was woven into the Duckworths family for a year so there may be one or two things more to put there. | |||||||
Jamie Armstrong | Major work needed (20/1/21) | ||||||
Biography was literally copied and pasted from another site so I've reset the page and written an intro. Over to someone else. I've not watched the ITV3 repeats so I'm not very familiar with this character. | |||||||

Both the bigraphy and background information need fleshing out, which is par for the course with these older articles, despite them containing the bare essentials. | |||||||
Gordon Clegg | Work needed (25/4/21) | ||||||
A few things still to do - appendices, personality, relationships (for Maggie, Betty and Lucille, certainly). Some of his later stints are unmentioned, including him crossing paths with Lucille again in 1974, revealing his true parentage in the Rovers in 1975, his 1982 return, and his dealings with Gail and Tricia in 1976. BGI has room for expanion - see the same section on Maggie's page for additional info on the introduction of the Cleggs. And finally, a new main image to replace the publicity pic. | |||||||
Mark Casey | Good (12/4/21) | ||||||

Biography falls into the trap of being a procession of "then this happened..." but it's comprehensive which will prove useful when the time comes to split off the other content sections. Main image is fine but it's the only one on the page. |

Biography barely scratches the surface of what was one of the major storylines of 2003. | |||||||
Angie Appleton | Work needed (16/1/21) | ||||||
Article is a personality and full background section away from Good status, but for a character who made only 94 appearances, it is bloated beyond belief and could do with condensing. If we were to make the biography more personal to Angie, there are parts that could naturally be removed - for example, Angie wasn't even present for Jude's final appearances in 2019 so there shouldn't be more than a couple of sentences devoted to it. The biography is full of things like that as it strives to be all-encompassing. Relationships shows a complete misunderstanding of what that section is too and merely regurgitates the biography. It's a problematic page but we have bigger fish to fry so it'll do for now. | |||||||

Jude Appleton | Major work needed (16/1/21) | ||||||
Biography is an exhaustive recap of Jude's first appearance in 2016. This will have to go in a full write-up, or at least be significantly trimmed - perhaps moved to a Mary relationship section. Otherwise, there's nothing on the page. | |||||||

Biography is satisfactory, background information is better, but both would benefit from expansion. Ivan's returns in particular are lacking detail and, in the BGI, Ivan's creation and casting. New main image needed as we only have a publicity photo at present. | |||||||

Jesse Chadwick | Work needed (13/4/21) | ||||||
Biography needs a paragraph on Julie being Jesse's assistant and the friction it caused with Eileen, considering that Julie played a key part in his exit from the show. Apart from that, it's ready to go. The background information says that John Thomson and producers agreed that there was nowhere to take the character - this needs to be expanded and sourced. Also could do with an image of Jesse in his General Custard guise. | |||||||

A biography that's short but covers the essentials which are Sandra's background, arrival in Weatherfield, the storyline with Ray and her exit. The personality section can be a useful grab-bag of other more minor Sandra storylines once it's written. BGI is short too, but sometimes there just isn't anything to say. | |||||||

Ida Barlow | Work needed (30/1/21) | ||||||
Ida's short tenure makes this a biography that's technically comprehensive without having much to say. The background information should be longer though going into Ida's creation and casting, the reason she died off-screen, and Noel Dyson gifting Dear Quatermass to the cast. Like the other originals, she has a significance that goes beyond her limited screentime and her article should reflect that. | |||||||

Looking good, just the missing sections to do. It's annoying to leave a page so close to completion but you really need to sit down and watch the character before writing the personality sections and I just don't have the time. | |||||||

Bernard Butler | Work needed (10/4/21) | ||||||
Appropriately short - the few things that aren't mentioned in the biography (such as his bet with Ray that saw Bernard dress as a nurse) can go in the personality section, so the bio gets a pass. Similarly, the BGI is only two lines long which is normal for short-term characters of this vintage. I'm not saying more can't be added, but these sections do work as they are. | |||||||
Harry Clayton | Work needed (24/4/21) | ||||||
