Talk:John Paul McQueen

message: This is a far to confusing and disjointed version of events. It makes no real sense as to what happened when and where, some is in past tense others in present. Suggesting a rewrite.
The latest version is much better, it follows the story in a logical and chronological fashion. I would suggest it stays as it is with additions added as the storyline progresses. Mithos7 11:58, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed Craig Dean being John-Paul's lover from the family section as it's not really a family relationship (Simstar 17:45, 8 July 2007 (UTC)

message: The official Hollyoaks site clearly shows that John Paul McQueen is not a hyphenate; however, the Wikipedia article title and nearly all references hyphenate him as "John-Paul." Would anyone object to this error being corrected?

message: Thanks to everyone for their recent work on this article. We seem to have lost the link to the Sonny-JP photo, so I'll add it back in. thisisace 01:28, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  Well, it is all down to Wikipedia policy really. If one fan site is given the go ahead to have a link, then all the others will and we'll end up with loads of fan site links and no useful content. That is why it is best to stick to the official sites, and let people use Google or other search engines to find fan sites. That is my thinking behind it anyway. ~~ [Jam][talk] 17:05, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Johnpaulcraig.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Johnpaulcraig.JPG

message: At the end of the article we have
Relationships
* Ex-boyfriend: Craig Dean 
 
and every day "Currently separated" is either removed or replaced. There is no evidence so far as to whether John-Paul and Craig will or won't get back together, and anything else is just wishful thinking at this stage. 
Please can we come to a consensus and stop wasting Wiki resources with this daily reverting, which appears on my watchlist every time I log on? thisisace (talk) 14:17, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I have discussed this with other users before. Unfortunately, many fans hope that Craig will return, hence the "currently separated" bit. In the end, I just gave up reverting it and agreed to leave it as "currently separated" until there was a definite end or restart of the relationship. However, I too am fed up with the constant reverting so can we try and reach a consensus regarding this please. ~~ [Jam][talk] 00:29, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Continuing reverts to and fro

message: I'm sorry, but alotn of this article is completely unsuitable for wikipedia, it would suit a fan site better than wikipedia. 
'When he had gone he got the picture of him and Craig out of the bin and stared at it longingly' can you really back up that he was staring 'longingly'? 
'unable to resist each other.' I think the fact Craig LEFT and doesn't appear to be coming back negates this a bit 
Maybe some people who aren't creepy fictional character stalkers should re write the article suitably...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.192.93.101 (talk) 05:47, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: So much POV

message: It's not an extreme overhaul, but it was enough to make this article encyclopedic. It still has a lot of plot, though. Per Wikipedia policy, a lot of that plot needs to be cut down, or at least spoken about in an out-of-universe perspective...with valid sources. Flyer22 (talk) 00:25, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Gave this article an overhaul

message: I'm going to revamp the article. I'm going to cut the storylines down dramatically, then discuss revelant parts in a more encyclopedic tone. The images need re-uploading, so I'll do that. That's just because the file names are a little off the mark and the fair use rationales are off the mark.RAIN the ONE (Talk) 22:18, 12 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Sources 

message: The source, number 4 (I think), doesn't actually mention anything, since it's a continually updated list of current returning/departing characters in a variety of soaps, and as such, JP isn't even mentioned in it anymore, since he returned over 3 months ago. I could just remove the whole source, and find another, but I'm not sure how. Pretty sure everything I provided was true, just needs better sourcing Chippycavna (talk) 21:33, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
