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.

A lengthy article with a lot of merit. There are niggling issues with most sections though. Starting with the biography, some storylines such as Martin's affair with Rebecca Hopkins and her marriage to Brian that require expansion, the Richard Hillman saga omits Richard's motivation for the murders, and an update is needed for the past two years. Personality is focused on Gail's early years and marriages. Relationships is generally good but missing sub-sections on all of her children and husbands. BGI runs through the main beats but the lack of book sources suggests the author did not have these to hand, so this can be massively expanded. Moreover, this is a high importance character article that emphasises some storylines and skirts over others, has info in the biography that could be moved (the amount of detail in Lewis's 2018 return for example - Gail has been on the sidelines for several years now and this is more Audrey's storyline, does it really need to be here?). It's an article that would benefit from going over by a single author who can decide on a structure upfront, pick which storylines go where, and redraft it but sympathetically, keeping as much as they can.

Biography is in terrific shape until we hit 1995. Editors should concentrate their efforts on 1995 to the present day and don't be afraid to chuck away what's already there as there are storylines omitted (Alf's death, battles over the salon with David) or given lip service (Alnma's death, her relationships with Fred and Archie), with Lewis's 2018 return excessively detailed. Beginning afresh would likely be the easier option here. No other sections written apart from one line of background information.

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 background information, all sections have a good amount of content. Personality is good, but Relationships repeats too much from the biography, as well as being a touch too plot-heavy - 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. As the section name implies, these are meant to illustrate what David's key relationships are and how they've evolved through the years.

The biography trails off around mid-2011.

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.

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. It needs updating for 2019 onwards which covers a lot of material though.

Three paragraphs on 2000-2006, skirting over major storylines including most of her relationship with Tyrone (no proposal atop Blackpool Tower, no living with Jack and Vera, no mention of how they met). The following ten years are covered in more detail but could do with a redraft to cut extraneous info and sharpen up the the writing. Biography runs out at 2016, only other sections started are the background information and appendices. The work history is complete as is the address list post-2007, but the BGI is in worse shape with three fairly random stories included and no essentials such as Samia's casting and how her character grew from being Tyrone's girlfriend into a street regular.

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.

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.

A character who first appeared in Oct 2017 has a 2930-word biography that only takes us up to February 2019.

We have episode pages for the nitty gritty details - that isn't what these pages are for. In particular, the parts involving her time in prison with Sally (the fact that she was in prison and befriended Sally there, yes, everything else no), the boat fire (she was innocent, so this should be dealt with in one paragraph), and her kiss with Steve (relevant, but too long).

Sections completed as indicated above. The biography, though covering the first month or so of Ed's time in the programme in detail, is ripe for trimming down now that Ed's been around a couple of years. It's also missing a scene-setting paragraph with an explanation of why the Baileys moved to the street.

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.

No personality or relationships yet, and these will be a big job on their own, so there's still a lot to do here. But definitely one we can take off the major additions pile.

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.

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.

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.

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.

The article itself isn't bad for an early effort, though the personality section badly needs examples to illustrate the points it makes.

Earlier sections would benefit from mentioning how he and Eva got together given how important that relationship became.

Eight paragraphs for Phelan's downfall and demise is ridiculous - it should be half that.

One of the oldest articles on the site, written at a time when the objective was get the raw facts down as quickly as possible and move on to the next character. Nothing's left out, but Norman's return isn't given the weight it's due, and no mention is made of the difficulties she faced running the shop by herself. Overall, it's just not written with the familiarity that a good biography needs to be. BGI is too short as well - a lack of resources in 2008 means that there's no inside info or quotes on either Betty Alberge's casting or axing, when we have a wealth of both nowadays.

I think I've reached breaking point with these articles that need going over with a fine toothcomb and where every single sentence has grammatical errors. It's a waste of my time making these fixes, and anyone reading would give up long before the end anyway. Major cleanup tags will have to do for now, on every section. It's honestly difficult to ascertain what's missing, because the way it's written, the text vaguely alludes to events but lacks key details - eg. "Rana shared an emotional moment with Kate after she crashed her wedding reception." - What emotional moment? What happened and what were the consequences? If there weren't any, why mention it? "She didn't tell her mum the truth for a while and that led to her moving out." - Who moved out? Of where? Why? Or is just plain contradictory: "[Rana] confessed to Zeedan that she was in love with someone else. Rana got outed by Kate to Zeedan" - So who outed Rana? Was it Kate or did she do so herself? I'm going on a bit but I've had it up to here with these Frankenstein's monsters of a biography. If this is your work, please be a stranger. Personality and Background get major cleanup tags too, the former because it drops plot elements in with no context (the contract, Speed Daal), the latter because the "bury your gays" complaint is given too much credence considering Bhavna Limbachia herself asked to be killed off. Include it, but frame it as a baseless complaint, and name the complainer (it was Russell T Davies - he even has a page here).

Whether these go in the biography or another section is up to the author. The biography is a hodgepodge which reads like it's written by half a dozen people, with the final section, on Joe's death, being another scene-by-scene description that doesn't belong in a biography - the odd crucial scene, maybe, but not entire episodes. BGI has a cleanup tag as it needs sources, especially the quote from "doctors" and the bit about Reece Dinsdale's typecast fears.

A "bare minimum" biography; more minor storylines can either go here or in the personality section. There's room for more on his relationship with Eileen, and him breaking it off due to Jodie leaving and Jerry finding out about Kayleigh going clubbing. BGI passes as well; again, it's short, but short-term characters like Jerry don't tend to attract much comment.

One of my earliest efforts and one I'm really not happy with now. At the time I was powering through the early characters, including the ones I hadn't seen much of and I think that's clear from this article. It doesn't add anything to the bare-bones plot synopses we started out with, and as such misses key details such as how Sheila's relationship with Neil Crossley changed her, and her dissatisfaction with Jerry, things that you don't pick up on when you simply regurgitate the events chronologically. There's mileage for a relationships section too and a background that expands on the suicide storyline using quotes from The Corrie Years - it was the show's biggest moment that year and deserves a deep dive. Her June 1969 appearance needs a mention somewhere as well - in an Elsie section?

Biography needs redrafted to take out anything that doesn't contribute to the main story. Currently it's a jumble of storylines with no structure, the biggest culprit being a sentence about Erica comforting Liz over Tony Stewart's affair being in the middle of paragraph about her and Nick. Remember, it has to work as a piece of prose in of itself. I can't see anything that is missing, though. BGI has a single sentence and nothing else on the page.

This one's nearly done - a relationships section isn't needed, so just a full-length BGI and employment history left. There is certainly more to say about the rape storyline and the whodunit, if you look at Carla's page - at least, the heavy promotion, who were the official murder suspects, the post-watershed week. The Coronation Street in 2012 page has a section on the storyline and that's deliberately a surface-level overview of the entire year.

This one dips just below the threshold for its biography to get a passing grade. Most of it is fine, but there are a handful of storylines that need going through in more detail - her introductory scenes for one; why did Ellen Page need seeing off? And how did Jacko track her down? Ritchie Levitt is not mentioned, nor is her lie to Maggie that Jacko was in a miners home and this nearly causing her to leave the shop. There's enough on the cutting room floor for a Maggie relationship too, such as her writing the ad in a newspaper personal column. Her 1974 appearance is very tacked on too with no details of her wedding date. BGI should also mention her disappearance without an exit, and sources for what's there now.

Rorylufcan: Great work! The Relationship and Background sections are now marked complete (sans images). Relationships will probably have more added once the rest of the page is written, but it is fine in its current form. I'm impressed that you were able to fill the section with moments that were so minor as it shows a deep knowledge of the character. My only piece of advice is that the Tricia sub-section concentrates almost entirely on Jamie and his mother's closeness, when he had his share of naughty moments as well so there is potential for a second paragraph to add those. Background Information is looking good as well, showing that you did your research.

Short, but a scan of the storylines in 2008 and 2009 shows that nothing important is missing. This is going to be a tricky one to finish as someone will have to go through Poppy's scenes to find anything personal - however thin - that Poppy reveals about herself to add some substance to the page.

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.

I'll mark the biography and background info as complete for now. The latter is short, but Tara wasn't in the show for long so there may be nothing more to add. Even what's there is tenuous, unless someone can find a source to suggest Tara's introduction was a response to the quoted article.

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.

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.

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.

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.
