Should individual actors' episode countsbe included on LOA pages?

I am opening a discussion due to edit warring to discuss whether individual actor's episode counts should be listed on LOA pages. All opinions are welcome.

Should we keep them on the LOA pages?
Should we have the information listed on the character's pages instead?
Should we return to the way it was previously?
Should we have them listed on the LOA pages, but formatted differently so they look neater? For example, should just the months the months said actors appeared be listed rather than the exact episodes? Or the episode link formatted so that only the date of said episodes appear rather than the whole episode number and date?

Are the numbers listed for each actor even accurate? Yes and No. If the actor has always been credited, yes they are. However, if the character was played by multiple actors prior to being credited, then in many instances we just don't know exactly when which actor appeared when which results in false numbers being listed.

An example of a page without them listed:

The same page with them listed:

Ben and Aaron

Aaron is leaving soon so Ben was going to as well, but should we maybe have seen more of Ben and Aaron’s relationship grow? All we saw was a hug. I’m not thinking about romantic scenes like that but just general development. All we got really was them breaking up and then getting back together. Also Danny claimed that he’s left to start a new chapter in his life now he’s become a dad (congratulations to him). Although, I do think maybe another reason he left was because of the writing. He hasn’t had a proper storyline in ages. All he’s got recently is just pretty much crying scenes because he’s got at them (and he honestly is) but he is one of the best actors in the show and he should have got a lot more than just stuff like being set back by Liv and her drinking. What’s your thoughts on all of this?

Hi.

I'm confused. Was tonight's episode of Emmerdale episode 8789/8790 or episode 8789? Was only on for 30 minutes so no double episode?

Minor characters LOA

Why are a load minor character getting LOA pages? They only for main characters. The page category has main character in the name.

Extended Break

I have been unable to do much editing on the Wikia since September. I thought things were finally calming down and I could finally catch up on all the episodes I'm behind (currently at 24/09, I have never been so far behind since I started watching the show) and return to editing again but other things have happened and it now looks like I won't be back to editing until around Christmas/New Year. As a result, I won’t be able to create the episode pages and update the LOAs. Is anyone interested/able to create the episode pages for the next few months episodes and also to keep the LOAs up to date?

I will still be checking in on the site and doing the odd edit but nowhere near as frequently as I used to.

Thanks Aks

I've Fixed Your Only Broken Redirect

I've fixed the only Broken Redirect you had on this wiki. Help:Forums redirects directly to Forum:Index instead of the previous page of Help:Wiki-style forums which wasn't setup correctly when the wiki was first established.

I hope this helps.

LOA and Episode pages.

I am extremely busy right now so unfortunately I haven't been unable to do much on the wikia for the last week or two and I will be unable to do much for the next fortnight either. I was wondering if anyone wants to update the LOA pages with this week and the next two weeks appearances and also if anyone is willing to create this week and the next two weeks episode pages?

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks Aks

Sarah Sugden Jr - that name!

Has it escaped everyone's notice that Sarah isn't a Jr? Her mother's name is Debbie, guys.

Quotes or First and last lines

Should we continue using the "quotes" for character pages or instead use "First and last lines" like the Corriepedia and EastEnders Encyclopedia do? I ask because I feel like several characters (such as Charity Dingle and Kim Tate) have far too many quotes on their pages, when instead those quotes could be included as "memorable dialogue" from the episodes they appear in.

For example, someone viewing Kim's page may not be aware that she ever said "There are many ways to skin a Sharma" to Jai (they could've not watched that spesific episode or forgotten the line if they did see it). It makes much more sense to use the line on the page for the episode it originated from as a "memorable quote".

My suggestion is to change the Quotes to First and last lines, but I'd like to hear what other people here think about this.

Maternity leave departures

How should we handle maternity leave departures? Should we treat them as any other departure and and change them back to regular when they return for the maternity leave or should we continue with how we've previously handled them and leave them as part of the current characters category and not have any last appearance and departure categories.

Images

If you are uploading images can you please ensure they have proper titles to do with what the images are rather than random combinations of numbers and/or letters.

Infoboxes

What has happened to the infoboxes? They suddenly just changed their look and looks much uglier than before. Is it on purpose? Why?

Murderer/Murder Victims.

As many deaths in Emmerdale are open to interpretation as to whether it is a murder or not, I strongly believe we should scrap the Murderer/Murder Victim categories and also remove the Kill Counts. This would save a hell of a lot of disagreements/arguments.

Opinions?

How is Emmerdale produced?

Hi, I was looking at articles on this site. There's a lot of good information here. But unless I missed something, I didn't see anything about how the show is produced. Like what is the production schedule like each week? And how does the executive producer convey her vision for the show to the rest of crew. I still don't know how a storyliner differs from an episode writer. I live in the United States, and our shows are produced a bit differently here. So I am trying to learn more about the nature of British soap production. Any comments/info are most appreciated!

Specifically, are there are any behind-the-scenes video clips that illustrate how the show is made each day? Also, what percentage of it is in the studio and what percentage is done outside? If there are articles, either news articles or scholarly articles, about how the show is made each day/each week, I'd love to read them. Thanks.
