Prop delete

Strongly disagree with deletion rationale. I believe "prematurity" works differently for real world people articles than it does for in-universe ones. We can't really say much about in-universe characters before their episode airs, true. And we waste a lot of time by starting story pages prematurely. But once a person has been officially announced by the production team, we can certainly create an article about them. I think this article has gone a little far by naming her character — but her involvement in Torchwood S4 is not in doubt whatsoever. We can take the time prior to broadcast to really investigate her past and beef up what the article says about her career before Torchwood. It takes time to write a real world individual article well. Almost none of it has to do with the content of episodes. Might as well start at the point of an official announcement — so long as we don't say early on what the name of her character is or the name of a particular episode. It's enough to say, "This person was in series [x] of prgramme [y]" in the lead, and then concentrate on what he or she did before their DWU involvement. Then, once we get to air date, we can just fill in the lead with appropriate details, and, presto chango, we'll have a complete article. CzechOut | 18:51, January 8, 2011 (UTC)
