Oppose – this is the same as American soap operas (e.g. Days of Our Lives just started "Season 60") but some of them still use yearly lists (rather than decades list) and I think this is the same year. The format for every other year has been a calendar year rather than a season so I think it should stay the same, making it consistent with Neighbours itself and other soaps – they all have seasons but they just don't advertise it the same. If it was done by season (e.g. "List of characters introduced in season x") I would be less opposed, but seeing "2023–2024" and then "2024–2025" would just confuse readers. Also, changing it would make the page extremely long to read due to the amount of characters and storylines and would require a lot if cleanup to dozens of links, and I don't think it's worth it.

Understandable points. Just on the last matters you raise, the proposed article would cover a twelve month period, the same as all other yearly Neighbours character lists (the current 2023 article is noticeably shorter than average), and with redirects already in place for all sections/anchors the cleanup to fix double redirects would be bot performed.

Oppose - I think we already have a simple way of grouping the characters in line with yearly dates. I can understand why you proposed it but I do not see any benefit from merging. Lets remain consistent and use years to group the characters. We are nearly 40 years into these lists - if it ain't broke, don't fix it.Rainthe 113:12, 2 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Should Sebastian Metcalfe be added to this list? Here is the DS report but it does not state any information of a first appearance. [1] Newton's casting was announced on Instagram [2] and it states that he will join the cast later in the year. In the comments section, Candice Leask states she cannot wait to work with him, suggesting he has not filmed his first scenes. I believe Neighbours had a production break recently and returned filming episodes due for February 2025. Although there is nothing stopping him appears before that if it is added in. What should we do?Rainthe 110:51, 12 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
I would also add him here for now and then move him if he makes his debut in 2025. I'm sure we've had similar instances on other lists in the past. - JuneGloom07Talk22:20, 14 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
