message: I'm just passing through here and have no knowledge (or actual interest) in the subject of the article, but I noticed that the table of Main characters is prefaced by, "'Starring seasons' refers to the season in which an actor or actress received star billing for playing a character."
I found that doubtful, since "One Tree Hill" is apparently a TV show, and most TV shows lead with the show title in the credits, followed by the main/regular actors. After the regulars are listed (often after a commercial on U.S. TV), the guest stars and other, minor regulars will get mentioned. The tern "star billing", however, has always meant "name listed before the title," as in Harrison Ford in Air Force One. That doesn't seem to be what's meant here (although it could be, since I've never seen the show). In Season One, ten names would have to be shown before the show's title in the opening credits. Is that how the show does it? Respectfully suggesting you check, and consider rewording the label/legend. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 12:29, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I know what you mean now. Basically in season 1-4 the opening credits were intertwined with the cast names. The music and title were all together as it's own little intro to the show. All ten names were included and in season four, all eleven. Then after the credits it would say "special guest stars" then "guest stars". Since season 5 due to production costs they have the inter-title then the names come up, for this show it just says the name. It doesn't say "Starring James Lafferty" for example it would just say "James Lafferty" then the rest. I wouldn't say star billing as words together, but I would use "starring" which is what's on the page. I hope this helps! Jayy008 (talk) 21:24, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, again, I'm not really concerned, so if you're all happy, I can be happy. I wasn't talking about the word "starring" in the credits, I was talking about names listed before the show's title ("star billing") or after the show's title (uh, not-star billing). Carry on. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 23:08, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Star billing 

message: Just as a reminder of information to the page. Current and Former main characters are separate unless the show is cancelled or finished. There should also be sections for Recurring, Special Guest Stars and Guest Stars, although it doesn't matter which order these go in. There is no rule to say a box of which characters have been on the show, which seasons they were starring and which seasons they were recurring isn't allowed. However, a box like this exists on most TV Shows main pages and it has limited information and is better there. Also just because a character has their own individual article, it doesn't mean that they shouldn't be on this page, ALL main characters must be listed on this page. I am saying this because of a recent IP edit war I've had which is ongoing. If anybody has any suggestions then they will be welcome. But his edits go against the whole of Wikipedia (other character pages). The consensus at the moment stands at how the page is now. Jayy008 (talk) 21:11, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Sawyer Brooke Scott 

message: It was brought to my attention that there is a disagreement over what types of characters should be listed on TV related pages. When it comes to overall series pages, the only important cast are the main cast. When breaking it down further, like for season or episode pages or character pages, the only next relevant cast are recurring and maybe special guest characters (typically not the latter). Non-descript characters, such as "teacher" or "girl #2", are not appropriate. Per WP:INDISCRIMINATE, Wikipedia is not just a collection of information, and listing random actors from a show would be indiscriminate in nature. We link to IMDb on all pages, and IMDb already keeps a rather extensive listing of all actors from any given show/episode. The best example I can provide is Characters of Smallville. The focus is on main characters and only truly important recurring characters. You'll notice that there are 2 actual lists for recurring. The first contains a list with prose information about the characters (real world content). The second is a generic listing that just lists characters who had recurring appearances, but were not notable enough for prose mentioning.   BIGNOLE   (Contact me) 01:51, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

message: I have moved Miranda, Alexander and Grubbs to guest stars in prose. According to recurring they don't really fit as they had one season guest-stories. If they come back for season 8, then they should definitely be in recurring. As for now, I don't think they should. Please post any objections here for discussion.
