/* Main Characters */ She is only Known as Connie. Reference removed as it had no connection with Connie. Soap characters are not "born" so removed neé. Do we want her maiden name here in her Lead paragraph? I think not. — | Gareth Griffith-Jones |The WelshBuzzard| —12:04, 3 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
My IP address is changing a lot for some reason, and I despise mobile editing, but this is the only way I can keep my IP address the same, so apologies for any spelling errors which may occur. I have noticed in the history you've been reverting many copy-editing issues, which is brilliant. I'll help keep this page free from copy-editing as well. Many thanks for the support, and it's nice to see a few people helping to keep this page free from copyright infringement! Keep up the great work! 109.147.111.205 (talk) 14:47, 5 Janaury 2015 (UTC)
I've identified two issues in the 'Episodes' section of this article:
1) Short summaries (again!) are being copied from other sources such as Radio Times, BBC, Digital Spy; short summaries CANNOT be copied from other articles, even when provided with a source, as this breaches copyright rules. Furthermore, I've noticed some information being added to the episodes which provides no enhancement to the summary whatsoever, but only extends it, could we refrain from this in the future?
2) Episode count DOES NOT add up. I know we've taken the episode number (48) from the BBC website, but with Radio Times excluding the three exclusive Casualty episodes (DEADFALL, THE ROAD NOT TAKEN, HOLBY SIN CITY) taking their episode count total to 46. As there have been three exclusive episodes, there would be 49 episodes in series 29, not 48. Furthermore, this would mean Series 30 starts before it is really scheduled to, particularly as the first two episodes in Series 30 have been written and directed by Paul Unwin, and focus massively on Charlie. Would it be a wise idea to move the three episodes to the List of Casualty episodes page, class the episodes in a new section named: "Holby Noir", and then take the count down to 46?
Was it not some sort of coin or necklace thing on the table? I was just copy-editing what had been written initially, but I've missed a few episodes before the series finale so not completely up to speed on the context. Skarloey (talk) 20:22, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I am glad to report that this article nomination for good article status has been promoted. This is how the article, as of June 16, 2017, compares against the six good article criteria:
1. Well written?: Article is quite high quality. Lede is of appropriate size per WP:LEAD, introducing reader to subject and summarizing article contents. "Overview" section is so large that I would recommend splitting it up into a couple or even a few sub sections within the parent section, as a suggestion for going forwards after GA.
2. Verifiable?: Episode summaries are matter of fact wording per WP:PLOTSUMMARY, everything else in the article, all facts asserted, are backed up to numerous citations. Good use of in-line citation format.
3. Broad in coverage?: Article is very thorough, bringing together research from eighty-four sources on the topic. Covers major aspects of topic including Introduction, Cast, Overview, Main characters, Recurring and guest characters, Production, Reception, Episodes.
4. Neutral point of view?: Writing style as noted above is matter of fact wording. Article appears to be written in a neutral tone. All asserted facts backed up by in-line citations as noted above. Article satisfies NPOV.
5. Stable? Edit history has been stable for several months. Talk page is good also. Also stable since major expansion of additional material on 10 June 2017.
6. Images?: Two images used in article. Both have appropriate licences on their respective image pages.
If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to have it Good article reassessed. Thank you to all of the editors who worked hard to bring it to this status, and congratulations.
