Talk:List of Ever After High characters

Large revert edit

In this edit I reverted a pretty hefty series of edits by IP 2.24.190.172. It was nothing personal. I found, however that there was a great deal of speculation included, personal interpretation, romance cruft, unsourced analysis of name origins, trivia, and other original research. Further, with the pending merger of this article back into the Ever After High article, the content needs to be significantly trimmed to make that doable. Sorry.

I've created a simpler list of 20 characters on the main article based on the official website. The name origins (e.g. daughter of Snow White) are listed there so that can be the basis of stuff to add about the characters. Some of the information from this article can be added there. Voice actors can be garnered by the Netflix broadcast episodes, although some characters have changed actors. There's borderline crufty stuff like favorite subjects and hobbies, although if they are central to the plot, that could be helpful. Also I'm not sure if it should list all the roommates and friends, but it should list them relative to the main characters (Apple and Raven). Alternatively, that detail can be explained in the plot/setting so there isn't too much redundancy. -AngusWOOF (talk) 16:35, 8 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
Good work, WOOF! I'd like to hear some of the arguments from other users re: the favorite subjects/hobbies and all things crufty. I'll point out that a lot of the content in the article was probably submitted by a disruptive sock jobber who doesn't seem to have any capacity for differentiating useful information from cruft, and she seems incapable of understanding Wikipedia guidelines or that this isn't her playground. I would err on the side of "cut it" until constructive users can articulate the need for certain pieces of information. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:58, 8 April 2015 (UTC)Reply

Descriptions copied over edit

I've copied over the descriptions for the 20 main characters. They are commented out for now but can be put in where the sourcing is available. Is there anything else that should be salvaged from this article? AngusWOOF (barksniff) 18:31, 21 April 2015 (UTC)Reply
