Best way of presenting Neighbours info
Hi there. Thanks for adding the articles about characters from Neighbours. Are you intending to expand these, or alternatively would you consider a list? Can I draw your attention to WP:FICTION in case you haven't yet read it? Thanks. --Cedders 11:44, 25 April 2006 (UTC)
Good work on the page. Keep it up! Budgiekiller 10:43, 15 May 2006 (UTC) If I didn't, Nobody else would. Conquistador2k6 10:43, 15 May 2006 (UTC)
delink of Unknown
You've probably seen I've gone through some of your articles and delinked Unknown. Please do not link Unknown in your articles, as it points to a disambiguation page, which goes against Wikipedia:Manual of Style (links). Thanks. Simon12 03:48, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
Peter Baker(Home and Away)
Hi -- I've replaced your Peter Baker(Home and Away) article with a redirect to Peter Baker (H&A) as this article already existed... --Bookgrrl 03:10, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
If you're going to create an article, please make sure it has some content apart from the generic leading sentence of all the EastEnders articles. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 13:08, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- Fair enough, your explanation seems good enough! Thanks for replying! =) Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 21:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
Okilly, Dokilly!
Moving pages
Hi, could you stop moving pages by copying and pasting their contents please? There's a move tab available so that you can do this. Using the move tab also moves the edit histories of the pages, and when you copy and paste pages, administrators have to tidy up the mess. I don't mean to sound rude, but please stop moving pages in this way. There's more information at WP:MOVE. Thanks. talk to JD wants e-mail 21:06, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
Hi neighbours fan. I don't know if you are interested but I have started a Grease Monkeys article. I don't really watch it anymore so I know very little about it. Could you expand it please? Ernst Stavro Blofeld 09:04, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
What's your source that Ritchie Scott's full name is Richmal? Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 14:42, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
Question
Are you a UK Ex-Pat at all? I'm just wondering because you seem to know a fair bit about Family Affairs. Conquistador2k6 27 September 13:50
- Hello. I'm Australian in Australia. Watch FA here on UK.TV cable where it plays alongside EastEnders, Emmerdale, Coronation Street. I think FA is the better show! As our screenings are about 18 months behind will are still seeing the show; have quite a bit to go before it ends. Asa01 21:37, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
Please
stop making new pages for EastEnders characters without any content. Please concentrate on adding to existing articles, rather than creating new ones that others have to expand and improve. Thanks. Trampikey (talk to me)(contribs) 18:12, 10 October 2006 (UTC) (EastEnders WikiProject)
- An EE article with good content would be preferred. I know you're trying to help, but you just leave an empty article that needs filling with information, which is a lot of work for members of the project, when we have other things we could be doing!

- Conquistator2k6, there's nothing wrong with starting character pages with little information in them, as long as you mark them as stubs using the {{EastEnders-stub}} template. Trampikey, just because an article doesn't have much information in it, doesn't mean we have to urgently research it and expand it. Every article has room for expansion. Some have more room than others. We can just add it to our list of tasks. Nothing is urgent. When I created George Palmer (EastEnders), Sarah Hills and Joe Wicks, they had very little in them as well. Conquistator2k6, you've done nothing wrong so don't worry. Your contributions are appreciated. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:05, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
- Anyway, you've had this discussion before, at #Tony Hills above, with the reply at User talk:Trampikey/Archive 4#Lou Beale. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:14, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Something that bugs me about your edit summaries
I just need to mention this today because it really really bugs me when you do it! When you link to another article, you always say "dabbed" in the edit summary. "dab" is short for "disambiguation", and is when you change, for example, "[[Mary Flaherty]]" to "[[Mary Flaherty (EastEnders)|Mary Flaherty]]", not when you change "Mary Flaherty" to "[[Mary Flaherty]]". Sorry but I had to get that off my chest! — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 20:16, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Home and Away
Hey. After clickign random article, I came across your works Curtis Reed and Shannon Reed. After noticing that there'a almost no information in the articles, I was wondering if they are notable enough for their own articles, or if they should just stay in the general list. I'd like to see more info added, and if I can find anything I'll add some stuff in. Just make sure you don't leave incomplete articles incomplete in the future. I don't mind, but others might. Thanks --Wizardman 20:17, 2 December 2006 (UTC)
