We're not Wikipedia, where all of that information of the lead would be surely suited. We, as a Doctor Who (and it's spin-offs) Wiki, only need whatever of McGee's career is related to the DWU. Information needs to be trimmed down to around a single paragraph, preferably noticing how such credits actually impacted/relate to his DWU credits
These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.
