Is there anything we can do about stopping people from creating character pages before episodes have aired. We have a WHOLE lot of pages this series which are just first names of characters, like [[Sophie (The Lodger)]]. This isn't particularly helpful because it forces us to go back and put in the full name of the character once the episode has been aired, as had to be done with [[Mo Northover]] and his family. Can we at least get an official policy set against this sort of "pre-creation"?
