message: I know in 2007 when they left they were engaged again and in September 2007, Dot asked them how preperations for their wedding were going, can we take it that they re-married then? Alex250P (talk) 19:20, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: I noticed that  removed Sonia and Martin's divorce and remarriage with the edit summary "Martin and Sonia were not divorced in 2006. They reconciled after a separation and left. There was no mention of a divorce and subsequent remarriage", while  has just put the divorce and remarriage back. But as  said in 2010, if they were preparing for a wedding then they must have divorced. anemoneprojectors 13:17, 30 December 2016 (UTC)

replies: text:  Sorry, I added it back without looking at the edit history, presuming an IP address user had removed it without reason. I only didn't check because it had remained as that for so long. Soaper1234 (talk) 13:22, 30 December 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: That's ok. I must be the only person who checks every edit to every page on my watchlist - I just assumed this was normal behaviour for Wikipedians! ;-) But I'm still not sure if they divorced and remarried. I thought they definitely did. I seem to remember some confusion at the time but dialogue seemed to make it obvious, which must be what Alex250P says above. anemoneprojectors 11:57, 1 January 2017 (UTC)

thread_title:  Sonia (2010) 

message: I have reverted everything saying she is returning because there has been no official announcement. "Sonia's intervention" is probably a phone call to Bianca. They still credit Cassidy because she is mentioned. They credited Kylie when they mentioned her sentencing on the Press Office site but she didn't return. If she was returning, there would have been some news about it. AnemoneProjectors 21:56, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Confirmed that she is returning for one episode, but I was right to revert at the time. AnemoneProjectors 01:07, 17 December 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  2011 

message: Sonia didn't actually say they had divorced, only that they had split up. So they may not be divorced, but if they are we don't know if they divorced in 2010 or 2011. –AnemoneProjectors– 22:21, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Marriage to Martin 

message: Just realised this page is listed under 'Sonia Fowler', Sonia was known as Sonia Jackson for over ten years before becoming a Fowler - also 'Sonia Jackson' receives over 20 million hits on Google, whilst Sonia Fowler receives 1 million. Surely we should change? Alex250P (talk) 01:33, 13 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Going by Google News (which is better), there are 83 results for '"Sonia Fowler" EastEnders' and 96 for '"Sonia Jackson" EastEnders'. I would support the page move. –AnemoneProjectors– 12:47, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

replies: text: Reenie was in just two episodes, so I would only list her on the pages of those she is most closely related to - so not Sonia, as overall, it's a minor relationship even if Sonia was in those episodes with Reenie. I've always been of the opinion that Carol and her kids, and Carol and her siblings, are treated as two separate families (the Jacksons and Brannings), and I don't think Sonia, has had much to do with Derek, Jack or Suzy. Natasha should only be listed on Bianca and Ricky's pages (and Natasha's siblings I guess). anemoneprojectors 16:07, 12 May 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Relatives 

message: Both by word count and by byte count, this article is 60% plot summaries of what has happened "in-universe" to this character and this proportion continues to grow.  This looks like a violation of WP:PLOT and MOS:PLOT.  My sense is that this should be drastically trimmed and only plot details that have achieved notability in third-party, reliable sources should be included.  Before undertaking such a reduction, however, I am asking for the views of those better-acquainted with the subject. Thank you. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 20:38, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Do any of the previous contributors have any objections to drastic reductions of the plot details here?  Thanks in advance. Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 18:14, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

replies: text: , thank you for your support.  I intend to wait some time for others to possibly voice objections.  Eggishorn (talk) (contrib) 14:32, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm totally happy for plot summaries to be shortened, but I'd prefer it to be done by someone familiar with the subject (not sure if those already commenting are). A problem we have is editors tend to watch an episode and add what happened to the character straight away, and with over 200 episodes a year (although not all of them featuring this character of course) that can be a lot of unnecessary detail. The other problem is when editors cut things down, others come along after a year or two and expand it again. Most plots are reported in third-party sources but as for which ones are notable I don't know. Trimming down the plot would be good but it's just hard to do sometimes when a character has been around for so long. — ᴀnemoneᴘroᴊecтors 15:46, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I just cut down the 2014- plot section, it was actually quite easy. These things are always easier to do when a storyline has finished rather than when it is still ongoing. That's why I don't really mind regular updates if it means plots aren't forgotten, as long as someone comes back to cut it down later. — ᴀnemoneᴘroᴊecтors 16:09, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: , I'll happily stand aside and let your judgment be primary here. Your efforts have already greatly addressed my concerns. I live in New England so I've never seen an episode of Neighbours.  I know that it's an important cultural touchstone in the Oz but that's about it.  Thanks again for your help.

thread_title:  Hugely over-detailed plot summary 

message: Surely this page should be renamed Sonia Jackson? Not only is this her common name, but her and Martin divorced years ago and the actor who played Martin at the time hasn't even been in the show for over a decade. I'm sure she's also credited as Jackson now as well? Does anyone else think the name ought to be changed?
Soapoholic (talk) 22:45, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: Still referred to as Fowler on the BBC website and in the credits.  Just because she's divorced does not mean that she will go back to her maiden name.-- 5 albert square (talk) 22:43, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
