I'm liking this a lot. Look out for best candidates to nominate for GA. I'd like to get in a few more GAs so that the project can show what good work we've done during AFDs and in general arguments with deletionists etc. And we can integrate all Frickative's comments for improvements here from WPEE, if you havent already added them already.GunGagdin ^Moan 15:30, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, I think Annie should be merged, possibly Roy Quick too. Part of me think Tom Clements and Benny Bloom should be as well. I dont like doing it anymore though, since we have to get rid of all the images we've collected. I might be able to rustle something up for Tom Clements, Benny and Roy though, but it wouldnt be much. I dunno if you heard, but Google is in the process of scanning every single newspaper publication in the last 200 years and giving free access to them. So once that happens for UK papers, we will be able to do so much more with these older characters.GunGagdin ^Moan 15:34, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ah good, I'm glad you've seen this, I thought it had slipped under your radar. OOU stuff will be a lot easier when Google do their thing. The only thing stopping me from merging Annie is the fact that she's an original... isn't that notable? There must've been newspaper stuff at the time about Mary leaving her on her own as well. I'll integrate Frickative's comments tomorrow :) -Trampikey^{(talk)(contribs)} 23:27, 23 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That storyline when they did the fire and Arthur rescued Annie would have been widely covered, as that was supposed to be a big stunt at the time. It wouldnt even raise an eyebrow now. Could always merge and remove later except we will lose the images, or just leave it and merge if someone moans about it. I'll leave it up to you.GunGagdin ^Moan 18:17, 24 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should keep it for now as I don't want to lose the images really. -Trampikey^{(talk)(contribs)} 16:02, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I agree. Would you object if we pats characters into decade or something? for ease of navigation etc.GunGagdin ^Moan 16:07, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good! -Trampikey^{(talk)(contribs)} 16:29, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Colours[edit]

We have green rows for articles which are in good shape - should we have red rows for the ones with 4 crosses and have those as our critical/priority articles? Also, does anyone know how to higlight a whole row with one colour instead of doing it how I've done it (cell by cell)? -Trampikey^{(talk)(contribs)} 16:37, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I ilke that, how about pink instead. I like pink lol GunGagdin^Moan 16:57, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

But pink's for girls!! -Trampikey^{(talk)(contribs)} 18:27, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

lol ok red it is then.GunGagdin ^Moan 19:04, 25 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
