I'd say, do it like Wikipedia.

Well, to ensure this wiki is consistent and factual, I believe that we should have them as their credited name.

This is because we do not do this for every character, such as Phillip 'Phil' Mitchell, Katherine 'Kathy' Cotton, Kathleen 'Kat' Moon, and Georgina 'Gina' Knight, as they are definitely not credited as such. Also, it will ensure that characters are linked better for the LOA pages.

Thanks

@Annawise79 what aspects of wikipedia ones do you propose?

Most characters don't have the full name.

But we aren't wikipedia. We want to be different and more factual. We have always had the characters full names. They have been stated in the show

I disagree with the edits you have made by getting rid of the names

@Annawise79 On this Wiki, we should have the full name on the character introduction page due to the fact this is an EastEnders wiki where we give our viewers all the information available. Wikipedia is much more general information. We should not strive to be like them.

Apologies I have been putting Rebecca 'Bex' Fowler and William 'Will' Mitchell. In future I can leave them as they are if that's what is preferred. The reason I have included their full name is because they are used interchangeably so like Will does get called William occasionally.

2 other examples from the 1980s - George 'Lofty' Holloway and Simon 'Wicksy' Wicks.

I think that within the episode pages, characters list should appear as they were credited (e.g. 'Bex Fowler') but in the character profile pages, full (legal) names should be used alongside nicknames (e.g. Rebecca 'Bex' Fowler).
